Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of PVB film technology, and in particular to a full-band heat-shielding modified PVB composite film, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] PVB film is a core component of automotive glass, and its heat shielding performance directly affects in-vehicle temperature regulation and air conditioning energy consumption. Currently, there are three main technical routes for manufacturing heat shielding PVB films for automobiles: coating-type heat shielding PVB films absorb near-infrared radiation by coating the surface with a single material such as ATO or ITO; particle blend-type heat shielding PVB films blend ATO and CsWO3 nanoparticles into the PVB matrix to block near-infrared radiation; and metal-layer composite heat shielding PVB films embed an extremely thin metal layer to reflect near-infrared radiation, which is mostly used in high-end models.
[0003] However, the above-mentioned heat shielding PVB film still has some problems: (1) The heat shielding band is not comprehensive, covering only the 780~1800nm mid-short wave near infrared, and the blocking rate of the 1800~2500nm long wave near infrared is less than 50%, which makes it difficult to control the deep temperature rise inside the car in summer; (2) The coating reliability is poor, mostly physical bonding, with a bonding force of only 1.2~1.8MPa. After 50 cold and hot cycles, the peeling rate is greater than 15%, and the performance decay exceeds 30%; (3) Optical and blocking are unbalanced. Some methods increase the coating thickness or particle addition to improve the blocking rate, resulting in insufficient light transmittance. The reflective glare rate of the metal layer composite heat shielding PVB film is too high, affecting the driver's vision; (4) The structural adaptability is insufficient. The thickness of some composite structure films exceeds 0.7mm, which conflicts with the demand for lightweight and energy-saving new energy vehicles and increases the difficulty of glass forming; (5) The dispersion system has poor stability. Traditional water-ethanol solvents are prone to nanoparticle agglomeration, affecting the consistency of heat shielding performance.
[0004] Therefore, developing a heat-shielding PVB film that provides full-band heat shielding, stable performance, and meets lightweight requirements is of great significance to the development of this field. Summary of the Invention

[0020] (5) This invention achieves preliminary dispersion by using a twin-screw low-speed mixer without damaging the nanoparticle morphology of CsWO3 nanoparticles and ZnO nanoparticles, reducing the time of subsequent ultrasonication and sand milling (10-15 min shorter than the traditional process), reducing energy consumption, and improving the stability and performance consistency of the full-band heat shield modified PVB composite film; the output is increased by 30-40% compared with the traditional single-screw process, and the energy consumption per unit product is reduced by 15%, making it more suitable for industrial production.

Then, it is milled with zirconia beads with a diameter of 0.2 mm for 35 min to obtain a heat shield coating slurry with a viscosity of 300 mPa·s and a particle size uniformity of ≥92%.
[0080] S3. Coating and Curing: Using a slit die, the heat shielding coating slurry is coated onto one side of the modified PVB substrate at a speed of 4 m / min to obtain a wet film with a thickness of 100 μm. Then, it is dried at 70℃ for 18 min, cured at 120℃ for 50 min, and naturally cooled to obtain a full-band heat shielding modified PVB composite film.
[0081] Comparative Example 1 The preparation method of this comparative example is the same as that of Example 2, except that the composition of the heat-shielding coating is adjusted as follows: D 50 The mixture contains 17wt% CsWO3 nanoparticles with a particle size of 25nm, 23wt% waterborne acrylic resin with a solid content of 30%, and a 60wt% composite dispersion system (8wt% 3G8, 2wt% PVP, and 50wt% large anti-whitening agent), and does not contain ZnO nanoparticles.
[0082] Comparative Example 2 The preparation method of this comparative example is the same as that of Example 2, except that the modified PVB matrix is prepared by single-screw extrusion with a single screw speed of 200 r / min. The preparation of the heat shield coating omits the "pre-dispersion in the side feeding system of the twin-screw extruder" and directly adds each component to the dispersion tank.
[0083] Comparative Example 3 The preparation method of this comparative example is the same as that of Example 2, except that the modified PVB matrix uses only Kuraray Mowital® B60H (PVOH content 19wt%) and does not contain epoxy silane coupling agent.
[0084] Comparative Example 4 The preparation method of this comparative example is the same as that of Example 2, except that the composite dispersion system of the heat shield coating is replaced with deionized water and ethanol in a volume ratio of 1:1, and 3G8, PVP and large anti-white are not used.
[0085] Test Example 1 The full-band heat-shielding modified PVB composite films prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were cut into test samples for performance testing.
[0086] (1) Near-infrared blocking rate and fluctuation amplitude test: The test was conducted according to GB / T2680 "Test Methods for Solar and Optical Performance of Architectural Glass". The test wavelength range covered 780~2500nm, and the scanning interval was set to 10nm. The blocking rate data for the 780~1800nm (medium and short waves) and 1800~2500nm (long waves) bands were recorded respectively. The fluctuation range of the blocking rate across the entire band was calculated by "(maximum blocking rate within the band - minimum blocking rate) / average blocking rate of the band × 100%". Each sample was tested three times, and the average value was taken. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0087] (2) Adhesion test of heat shielding coating: The adhesion test of the heat shielding coating was conducted according to GB / T9286-1998 "Cross-cut Test for Paints and Varnishes". A cross-cut rating was applied, using a 1mm-pitch cross-cutting tool to create a 10×10 grid (grid area 1mm×1mm) on the surface of the heat shielding coating. After removing debris from the grid, 3M 610 tape was applied to the grid area, and the tape was quickly peeled off at a 90° angle. This process was repeated three times. The coating was rated based on the degree of peeling (5B for no peeling, 4B for minor peeling at the edges, 3B for ≤15% peeling area at the edges, 2B for 15%~35% peeling area, 1B for 35%~65% peeling area, 0B for >65% peeling area). Simultaneously, a tensile testing machine was used to test the peel adhesion between the heat shielding coating and the modified PVB substrate (tensile speed 50mm / min, room temperature 23℃). Five different locations were tested for each sample, and the average adhesion was calculated. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0088] (3) Test on the peeling rate and performance degradation rate of the heat shielding coating after thermal cycling: The thermal cycling test was conducted according to GB / T10586-2006 "Damp Heat Aging Test Method". The cycling conditions were set as follows: -40℃ constant temperature for 2 hours → room temperature transition for 5 minutes → 85℃ constant temperature for 2 hours → room temperature transition for 5 minutes, completing one cycle, for a total of 50 cycles. After cycling, the percentage of coating peeling area was calculated using visual observation and image analysis software (peeling rate = peeling area / total coating area × 100%). Simultaneously, the near-infrared blocking rate was retested according to GB / T2680, and the performance degradation rate was calculated using "(blocking rate before cycling - blocking rate after cycling) / blocking rate before cycling × 100%". The results are shown in Table 1.
[0089] (4) Transmittance and reflectance glare test: The transmittance test was conducted according to GB / T2680 "Test Methods for Solar and Optical Performance of Building Glass", with a visible light wavelength range of 380~780nm, and the average transmittance was recorded. The reflectance glare rate test was conducted according to GB / T1865-2009 "Artificial Climate Aging and Artificial Radiation Exposure of Paints and Varnishes", using a D65 standard light source, with the observation angle set at 15°, and the reflectance glare rate data was recorded. Each sample was tested 3 times, and the average value was taken. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0090] (5) Peel strength test with glass: Referring to GB / T11944-2012 "Insulating Glass", a laminate was made by laminating a full-band heat-shielding modified PVB composite film with float glass (thickness 3mm) using a lamination process (30kPa pressure reduction, temporary pressing at 100℃ for 20min, and high-pressure autoclave pressing at 1.2MPa and 140℃ for 60min). The peel strength between the full-band heat-shielding modified PVB composite film and the glass was tested using a tensile testing machine (tensile speed 50mm / min, room temperature 23℃). Each sample was tested 5 times, and the average value was taken. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0091] (6) Heat shielding coating haze test: Referring to GB / T2410-2008 "Determination of light transmittance and haze of transparent plastic", the haze value of the heat shielding coating was tested using a haze meter in an environment of room temperature 23℃ and relative humidity 50%. Five points were selected in the test area, including the center and the surrounding area of the coating, and the average value was taken. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0092] (7) Dispersion stability test: The heat shield coating slurry was sealed and left for 30 days. Observe whether stratification or precipitation occurs, test the particle size distribution before and after the storage period, and calculate the particle size change rate. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0093] Table 1. Test results for each test item in Test Example 1.
[0094] As can be seen from Table 1, the full-band thermal shielding modified PVB composite film prepared by this invention exhibits excellent overall performance and outstanding characteristics in various aspects, specifically: Regarding near-infrared blocking, Examples 1-3, employing a dual-component synergistic approach of CsWO3 nanoparticles and ZnO nanoparticles, and uniformly dispersed via twin-screw mixing, achieved stable short-wave blocking rates of 88.6%-91.5% in the 780-1800 nm range and long-wave blocking rates ≥85.3% in the 1800-2500 nm range, with a full-band fluctuation range ≤1.9%, thus achieving highly efficient and stable thermal shielding across the entire wavelength range. Comparative Example 1, without the addition of ZnO nanoparticles, exhibited a near-infrared blocking rate of only 72.3% in the short and medium wavelengths and a long-wave blocking rate of 60.5%, and due to uneven dispersion of the single component, the full-band fluctuation range was also significant. The shielding efficiency was 8.6%, which could not meet the full-band shielding requirements. Comparative Example 2 used a single-screw process, which resulted in insufficient dispersion uniformity. The blocking rates for medium and short waves and long waves dropped to 85.7% and 80.3%, respectively, with a fluctuation range of 4.3%. The performance stability was significantly worse than that of Examples 1-3. Although Comparative Example 3 maintained a certain blocking efficiency due to the synergy of the two components, the lack of KH560 led to unstable bonding between the thermal shielding coating and the substrate, which indirectly affected the consistency of the blocking performance. The fluctuation range was slightly higher than that of the examples. Comparative Example 4 used a traditional deionized water-ethanol dispersion system, which had poor dispersion effect and poor near-infrared blocking performance.
[0095] Regarding coating adhesion, Examples 1-3, through high-speed mixing and twin-screw extrusion, achieved a KH560 dispersion uniformity of ≥95%, forming a stable chemical bond with the heat shielding coating. The adhesion of the heat shielding coating reached 4.7-5.3 MPa, with a cross-cut rating of 5B, and no peeling occurred. Although the adhesion of the heat shielding coating in Comparative Example 1 was close to that of the embodiments of the present invention, it lacked ZnO nanopowder and could only achieve single-band blocking, resulting in functional defects. Comparative Example 2 used a single-screw process, but the KH560 was unevenly dispersed, and the coating adhesion dropped to 3.6 MPa, with a cross-cut rating of 4B and a small amount of peeling at the edges. Comparative Example 3 did not add KH560, and the coating and substrate were only physically bonded, with an adhesion of only 1.5 MPa, a cross-cut rating of 2B, and a peeling area of 15-35%, exposing the reliability shortcomings of traditional physical bonding. Comparative Example 4 used a traditional deionized water-ethanol dispersion system, which had poor dispersion effect and poor coating adhesion performance.
[0096] Regarding coating peeling and performance degradation, after 50 cycles of thermal cycling (-40~85℃), Examples 1-3 showed a coating peeling rate of ≤0.8% and a performance degradation rate of ≤2.1%, demonstrating excellent weather resistance and stability. This is attributed to the uniform distribution across the entire surface resulting from the twin-screw extrusion process, with no weak areas in the film. Comparative Example 1, lacking ZnO nanopowder, exhibited insufficient coating structural stability, with a peeling rate of 3.2% and a degradation rate of 6.8%. Comparative Example 2, with its single-screw extrusion process leading to uneven dispersion, showed a peeling rate of 8.9% and a degradation rate of 9.5% after cycling, indicating significant performance degradation. Comparative Example 3, lacking the chemical bonding effect of KH560, suffered from easy coating peeling, with a peeling rate as high as 18.7% and a degradation rate of 15.3%, failing to meet long-term usage requirements. Comparative Example 4, employing a traditional deionized water-ethanol dispersion system, showed poor dispersion and exhibited poor performance in terms of coating peeling and performance degradation.
[0097] Regarding transmittance and reflective glare, the transmittance of Examples 1-3 is ≥87.8%, far exceeding the basic requirement of ≥75% for automotive windshields, and the reflective glare is ≤2.7%, with no visual interference. This is because the twin-screw process ensures uniform dispersion of nanoparticles, avoiding optical inhomogeneity caused by agglomeration; Comparative Example 1 lacks ZnO nanoparticles, resulting in slightly poorer optical consistency of the coating and a glare rate of 2.8%; Comparative Example 2's single-screw process leads to uneven particle dispersion, reducing transmittance to 87.5% and glare rate to 3.5%, which may affect the clarity of the driver's field of vision; Comparative Example 3 lacks KH560 modification, resulting in a small gap at the interface between the substrate and the coating, with a glare rate of 3.2%, and the optical experience is inferior to the embodiments of this invention; Comparative Example 4 uses a traditional deionized water-ethanol dispersion system, which has poor dispersion effect, affecting both transmittance and reflective glare.
[0098] Regarding the peel strength from glass, Examples 1-3 all exhibited peel strengths ≥60 N / m, meeting the requirements of GB / T11944 standard, demonstrating strong adhesion between the modified PVB matrix and glass. The twin-screw process ensured uniform distribution of KH560, guaranteeing sufficient bonding sites between the modified PVB matrix and glass. While Comparative Example 1 showed a peel strength of 61 N / m, its function was limited, lacking full-band shielding capability. Comparative Example 2, with its single-screw process, resulted in significant matrix thickness deviations and loose adhesion to the glass, reducing the peel strength to 52 N / m. Comparative Example 3, lacking KH560 modification, suffered from decreased matrix adhesion, resulting in a peel strength of only 38 N / m, failing to meet the safety requirements of laminated glass. Comparative Example 4 employed a traditional deionized water-ethanol dispersion system, which resulted in poor dispersion and decreased peel strength from glass.
[0099] Regarding coating haze, the coatings in Examples 1-3 had a haze of ≤0.9%, exhibiting high visual clarity without blurring or color difference issues. This is because the synergistic effect of pre-dispersion and fine dispersion in the twin-screw mixing ensures that the uniformity of nanoparticle size is ≥92%, avoiding light scattering caused by agglomeration. Comparative Example 1 lacked ZnO nanoparticles, resulting in insufficient coating density and a haze of 1.5%. Comparative Example 2's single-screw process led to uneven particle dispersion, resulting in a haze of 1.3%. Comparative Example 3 lacked KH560 modification, resulting in microbubbles at the coating-substrate interface and a haze of 1.1%, all higher than the embodiments of this invention, indicating poor optical consistency. Comparative Example 4 used a traditional deionized water-ethanol dispersion system, which resulted in poor dispersion and poor coating haze performance.
[0100] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the blocking efficiency of the 780~1800nm mid-short wave near-infrared and the blocking efficiency of the 1800~2500nm long wave near-infrared of the present invention are improved by more than 22.5% and 41% respectively compared with Comparative Example 1, and the fluctuation range of the whole band is only 1 / 4 of that of Comparative Example 1, which solves the problems of insufficient long wave blocking and large performance fluctuation in the prior art.
[0101] This invention effectively enhances dispersion uniformity through twin-screw extrusion, doubling the product performance stability. The coating adhesion of Examples 1-3 is 30.6% higher than that of Comparative Example 2. The cross-cut rating, peeling rate after thermal cycling, and performance degradation rate are all far superior to those of Comparative Example 2. At the same time, the coating haze is ≤0.9%, the reflective glare rate is ≤2.7%, and the optical consistency is better, ensuring clear driving vision.
[0102] This invention utilizes epoxy silane coupling agents to modify and construct stable chemical bonds, thereby improving the reliability of the heat shield coating and lamination. The coating adhesion of Examples 1-3 is more than 3.1 times that of Comparative Example 3, the peel strength from glass is 57.9% higher than that of Comparative Example 3, and the peeling rate after thermal cycling is 95.7% lower than that of Comparative Example 3. This can solve the problem of easy peeling of traditional physical bonding and extend the service life of the product.
[0103] The composite dispersion system provided by this invention has significant advantages. The particle size change rate of the dispersion stability of Examples 1-3 is ≤1.2% after 30 days, which is far better than that of Comparative Example 4 (water-ethanol system, 8.5%). It effectively inhibits the agglomeration of nanoparticles and ensures stable heat shielding performance during long-term use. At the same time, it avoids the problem of immiscibility between 3G8 and ethanol and improves the uniformity of the coating.
[0104] The total thickness of the full-band heat-shielding modified PVB composite film of this invention strictly follows integer multiples of 0.38mm (0.38mm, 0.76mm), which meets the requirements of "weight reduction and energy consumption reduction" for new energy vehicles, takes into account both lightweighting and environmental protection, reduces weight by more than 40% compared with existing thick films, and has a light transmittance of ≥87.8%, which is higher than the standard of ≥75% for automotive windshields. The reflective glare rate is ≤2.7%, which has no visual interference. Moreover, it adopts a water-based coating system and a twin-screw low-energy consumption process, which is suitable for green production requirements.
[0105] In summary, the full-band thermal shielding modified PVB composite film provided by this invention can achieve efficient near-infrared blocking across the entire 780~2500nm band, improve coating adhesion and performance stability, and simultaneously meet the needs of lightweighting, environmental protection and industrial production, thus having broad application prospects.
[0106] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the technical solutions of the present invention, and these modifications or equivalent substitutions cannot cause the modified technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
