In addition, the traditional initiation system needs to be reacted at a high temperature, which has high energy consumption and is easy to cause side reactions; and the regulation and control system lacks precise control, which is easy to cause over-polymerization or gelation, thereby limiting the industrial application of the product.

[0115] The present application is a complete and detailed overall technical solution, which better ensures the structure and composition of the emulsion type grafted neoprene rubber, and further improves the properties of the emulsion type grafted neoprene rubber. The application of the above methyl methacrylate monomer and butyl acrylate monomer as a composite grafting monomer in the preparation of emulsion type grafted neoprene rubber from chlorobutadiene monomers to improve grafting efficiency, an emulsion type grafted neoprene rubber and a preparation method thereof can specifically include the following contents:

[0116] In the composite grafting monomer of the present application, MMA improves adhesion and polarity, and BA improves toughness and yellowing resistance. When the ratio of the two is 1:1 to 3:1, the performance is optimal. If the ratio is too high or too low, the adhesion strength will decrease or the heat resistance will be insufficient.

[0117] When the weight ratio of the potassium persulfate-methyl ether sulfinate initiation system is 10:1, the low-temperature initiation efficiency is the highest. If the weight ratio is less than 10:1, the initiation is insufficient. If the weight ratio is higher than 10:1, side reactions are prone to occur.

[0118] The dosage of the dispersing agent naphthalene sulfonate formaldehyde condensate sodium salt is controlled to be 0.05-0.3 parts. If the dosage is too low, the grafting reaction cannot be effectively controlled. If the dosage is too high, the grafting reaction will be inhibited.

[0119] The dosage of the non-sulfur regulator n-dodecanethiol is 0.5-1.5 parts, which can balance the molecular weight and storage stability.

[0120] During the post-processing, the concentration of the demulsification aqueous acetic acid solution is 28%. If the concentration is too high, the product salt content will exceed the standard, and the product will discolor and turn yellow. If the concentration is too low, the demulsification will be incomplete.

[0121] The water-based adhesive prepared by the product can be directly used for bonding the upper and the sole of sports shoes. After coating, the adhesive is left to stand for 10-15 min, and then is attached and pressed at 0.3-0.5 MPa. The adhesive is cured at room temperature for 24 h, and the bonding strength reaches 3.7-4.1 MPa, which meets the use requirements of the shoe material industry. When the adhesive is used for bonding the instrument panel and the plastic framework of the automobile interior, the adhesive can withstand high-temperature aging at 80℃ for 1000 h, and the bonding performance does not decrease obviously. The adhesive is environmentally friendly and low in odor, and meets the standards for automobile interiors.

[0122] The emulsion type grafted neoprene provided by the application introduces MMA (methyl methacrylate) and BA (butyl acrylate) composite monomers in the neoprene emulsion, grafts the functional monomers to the neoprene (CR) main chain, retains the characteristic advantages of CR, realizes the upgrading of key performances such as adhesion and heat resistance, and has become the core material in the fields of adhesives, sealing materials and the like. After grafting the composite monomers, the adhesion strength to polar substrates such as PVC, artificial leather and metal is improved, the initial adhesion and holding adhesion are significantly improved. The heat resistance is enhanced: the main chain crystallinity is destroyed by the branched chain, and the heat distortion temperature is increased. The processing and storage stability is optimized: the storage period of the non-sulfur grafting system is extended to 2-3 years, and the system is not easy to scorch; the anti-sticking roller property of the emulsion grafting product is improved, the processing window is wider, and the compatibility is improved: the compatibility with PVC, resin and filler is improved, and the product delamination and brittle fracture problems are reduced. The environmental protection property is strengthened: the VOCs emission of the emulsion grafting process is extremely low, and the green production standard is met.

[0123] The above content of the application provides the application of methyl methacrylate monomers and butyl acrylate monomers as composite grafting monomers in the preparation of emulsion type grafted neoprene from neoprene monomers to improve grafting efficiency, an emulsion type grafted neoprene and a preparation method thereof, and particularly relates to an emulsion type grafted neoprene and a preparation method thereof. The application particularly applies methyl methacrylate monomers and butyl acrylate monomers as composite grafting monomers in the preparation of emulsion type grafted neoprene from neoprene monomers, so as to further improve the grafting efficiency. Meanwhile, the application provides an environmentally friendly high grafting efficiency neoprene and a preparation method thereof, which realizes the dual improvement of grafting efficiency and environmental protection through the selection of composite grafting monomers, the synergistic design of initiation-regulation system and process optimization.

[0124] The core idea of the application is that MMA (methyl methacrylate) monomers and BA (butyl acrylate) monomers are selected as composite grafting monomers, the adhesion and toughness are considered; a potassium persulfate and dimethyl sulfide sulfoxide low-temperature oxidation-reduction initiation system is used to reduce the reaction energy consumption and improve the initiation efficiency; a dispersant naphthalene formaldehyde condensate sodium salt is further introduced to accurately control the reaction process and inhibit the side reaction; and a non-sulfur regulator is further matched to improve the storage stability, and the whole process is realized by using water as a medium to realize solvent-free and environmentally friendly production.

[0125] The emulsion type grafted neoprene rubber and the preparation method thereof have the following advantages: environmental friendliness is significantly improved: an emulsion polymerization process is adopted, no organic solvent is added, VOC emission is reduced by more than 95%, meets the EU REACH and the VOC emission standard of China, and the operation environment is friendly; moreover, the grafting efficiency and the conversion rate are high: through the synergistic effect of the initiation-regulation system, the grafting efficiency is greater than or equal to 60%, the monomer conversion rate is greater than or equal to 96%, which is much higher than that of the traditional emulsion grafting process (the grafting efficiency is 30% to 40%); meanwhile, the performance is balanced and excellent: the weather resistance and oil resistance of the neoprene rubber are retained, the bonding strength is increased by more than 40%, the heat resistance temperature is increased by 15-20 DEG C, the storage period is extended to 2 to 3 years, and the rubber is not easy to scorch and stick. In addition, the preparation process has strong controllability: the reaction temperature is low (50-70 DEG C), the energy consumption is low, the temperature fluctuation is less than or equal to ± 2 DEG C, the product batch stability is good, and the process is suitable for large-scale industrial production. The emulsion type grafted neoprene rubber has wide application scenarios: can be directly prepared into water-based adhesive or solid rubber, is suitable for multiple fields such as shoe materials, automobiles, buildings and industrial sealing, and has strong practicability.
