Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of adhesive formulation technology, and in particular to a formaldehyde-free, waterproof, and flame-retardant adhesive formulation. Background Technology
[0002] Adhesives are core auxiliary materials in fields such as engineered wood products, furniture manufacturing, and building decoration. Their usage is enormous and their applications are widespread, directly impacting the performance and safety of end products. With increasingly stringent environmental policies and heightened public awareness of health, traditional formaldehyde-containing adhesives (such as urea-formaldehyde resin and phenolic resin) are gradually being replaced by formaldehyde-free adhesives because they continuously release formaldehyde during use, harming human health and polluting the environment.
[0003] Currently, existing formaldehyde-free adhesives are mainly divided into two categories: bio-based formaldehyde-free adhesives (such as starch-based, tannin-based, and furfuryl alcohol-based) and synthetic formaldehyde-free adhesives (such as polyurethane-based and epoxy resin-based). However, there are still many technical pain points, making it difficult to achieve the three core properties of formaldehyde-free, waterproof, and flame-retardant. Furthermore, their practicality and economy need to be improved. Firstly, while bio-based formaldehyde-free adhesives are environmentally friendly, they generally suffer from poor water resistance and insufficient bonding strength. Most products have a 24-hour water absorption rate exceeding 10%, making them unsuitable for humid environments. Secondly, existing flame-retardant formaldehyde-free adhesives often use a single flame retardant, resulting in limited flame-retardant effects (limiting oxygen index mostly below 30%). Furthermore, the poor compatibility between the flame retardant and the adhesive matrix easily leads to adhesive delamination, decreased storage stability, and further reduced bonding strength. Thirdly, some formaldehyde-free adhesives still use strong acids as catalysts to improve reaction efficiency, which easily leads to substrate degradation, adhesive yellowing, and the migration of acidic components, reducing waterproof performance and service life. Fourthly, while synthetic formaldehyde-free adhesives have relatively stable performance, their production costs are high, the preparation process is complex, requiring high temperature and pressure conditions, resulting in high energy consumption and difficulty in large-scale promotion. Fifthly, existing formaldehyde-free adhesives often focus on optimizing a single performance aspect, either only achieving formaldehyde-free environmental friendliness or only improving waterproof or flame-retardant properties, failing to achieve a synergistic balance of formaldehyde-free, waterproof, flame-retardant, high strength, and low cost, making it difficult to meet the practical application needs of fields such as engineered wood products and building decoration.
[0004] Therefore, in view of the performance shortcomings of existing formaldehyde-free adhesives, developing a formaldehyde-free, waterproof and flame-retardant adhesive formulation that is free of formaldehyde and strong acid catalysis, has excellent waterproof and flame-retardant properties and high bonding strength, and is easy to prepare, cost-controllable and mass-producible has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, one of the objectives of this invention is to provide a formaldehyde-free waterproof and flame-retardant adhesive formula.
[0006] One of the objectives of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution: The formaldehyde-free, waterproof, and flame-retardant adhesive formulation, by weight, includes the following essential components: 40-60 parts of formaldehyde-free matrix component, 15-25 parts of phosphorus-nitrogen synergistic flame-retardant component, 5-12 parts of waterproof modifying component, 2-6 parts of crosslinking aid, 1-3 parts of stabilizer, and 10-20 parts of deionized water; the formulation contains no formaldehyde-releasing components or strong acid catalysts, and the formaldehyde release is ≤0.02mg / m³. 3 The 24-hour water absorption rate is ≤8%, the limiting oxygen index is ≥32%, and the bonding strength is ≥1.5MPa, meeting the GB / T9846-2015 and GB8624-2012 B1 flame retardant standards.
[0007] Furthermore, the formaldehyde-free matrix component is a composite bio-based system, composed of tannins, modified furfuryl alcohol, and oxidized polyvinyl alcohol in a weight ratio of 1:0.3-0.6:0.1-0.2; the tannins are selected from black thorn tannins or larch tannins, with a number average molecular weight of 1200-2500 g / mol; the modified furfuryl alcohol is polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether modified furfuryl alcohol, with a number average molecular weight of 400-1000 g / mol, and the modification amount is 8%-15% of the mass of furfuryl alcohol; the oxidized polyvinyl alcohol has an oxidation degree of 20%-35% and a number average molecular weight of 3.0 × 10⁻⁶. 4 -5.0×10 4 g / mol.
[0008] Furthermore, the phosphorus-nitrogen synergistic flame retardant component is a composite system, composed of a phosphorus-containing intumescent flame retardant and a nitrogen-based flame retardant in a weight ratio of 2:1-1.5; the phosphorus-containing intumescent flame retardant is selected from N,N-bis(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediol phosphate)urea (DDPPU) or (1-oxo-1-phospha-2,6,7-trioxabicyclo(2.2.2)octane-4-carbonyl)neopentyl glycol ester (DOPCP); the nitrogen-based flame retardant is selected from one or two of melamine cyanurate and melamine phosphate in any proportion.
[0009] Furthermore, the waterproofing modified component includes a silane coupling agent and phytic acid, with a weight ratio of 1:0.8-1.2; the silane coupling agent is selected from KH-550 and KH-560; the phytic acid has a mass fraction of 70%-80%, serving as a mild acid catalyst and waterproofing auxiliary component to avoid substrate degradation caused by the migration of acidic components.
[0010] Furthermore, the crosslinking aid is selected from cationic polyacrylamide and carboxylated polyacrylamide, with a number average molecular weight of 2.5 × 10⁻⁶. 6 -3.5×10 6 g / mol; the stabilizer is selected from disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate and sodium citrate, and is used to inhibit the runaway polymerization of furfuryl alcohol and component stratification.
[0011] Furthermore, it also includes 3-8 parts of filler, wherein the filler is selected from one or more of diatomaceous earth, kaolin, and calcium carbonate and mixed in any proportion, the filler particle size is 1000-2000 mesh, and it is added after pretreatment with silane coupling agent to improve the mechanical strength and water resistance of the adhesive.
[0012] Furthermore, the preferred weight proportions of each component are: 50 parts of formaldehyde-free matrix component, 20 parts of phosphorus-nitrogen synergistic flame retardant component, 8 parts of waterproof modification component, 4 parts of crosslinking aid, 2 parts of stabilizer, 15 parts of deionized water, and 5 parts of filler.
[0013] Furthermore, this includes the following steps: (1) Weigh all components by weight, add tannin and deionized water from the formaldehyde-free matrix component to the reaction vessel, and stir at 300-500 r / min for 15-25 min at room temperature until the tannin is completely dissolved. (2) Add modified furfuryl alcohol and stabilizer to the reaction vessel, heat to 50-60℃, stir for 30-40 min to obtain aldehyde-free matrix solution; (3) Add the phosphorus-nitrogen synergistic flame retardant component, waterproof modification component and crosslinking aid to the formaldehyde-free matrix solution in sequence, keep the temperature at 50-60℃ and stir for 60-90min to form a uniformly dispersed mixed system; (4) If filler is added, the pretreated filler is added to the above mixing system, and stirring is continued for 20-30 minutes. The mixture is then cooled to room temperature, filtered to remove impurities, and formaldehyde-free waterproof and flame-retardant adhesive is obtained. The entire preparation process does not require high temperature and high pressure, and there is no harmful gas emission, which can realize large-scale production.
[0014] Furthermore, the adhesive can be used in fields such as engineered wood products (plywood, particleboard, fiberboard), furniture manufacturing, building decoration, and packaging materials. It can be applied using cold pressing or hot pressing processes, with cold pressing temperatures of 20-40℃ and hot pressing temperatures of 100-120℃. The application is convenient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. The formula of this invention does not contain any formaldehyde-releasing components or strong acid catalysts, and the formaldehyde release is ≤0.02mg / m³. 3 It is far below industry standards, emits no harmful gases during use, and meets environmental protection policies and human health requirements; at the same time, through reasonable component matching, it avoids problems such as substrate degradation and glue yellowing caused by strong acid catalysis, and improves the storage stability and service life of the glue.
[0016] 2. This invention employs a phosphorus-nitrogen synergistic flame-retardant component, with the two components combined in a specific ratio to achieve complementary flame-retardant effects. The limiting oxygen index is ≥32%, meeting the GB8624-2012 B1 flame-retardant standard. Compared to a single flame-retardant system, it exhibits higher flame-retardant efficiency, longer-lasting flame-retardant effect, and is less prone to flame-retardant migration. Simultaneously, the silane coupling agent and phytic acid in the waterproofing modifier work synergistically. Phytic acid acts as a mild acid catalyst to promote the reaction and also helps improve waterproof performance. The silane coupling agent improves the compatibility of each component and enhances the adhesion between the adhesive and the substrate, resulting in an adhesive water absorption rate of ≤8% over 24 hours. This significantly outperforms existing bio-based formaldehyde-free adhesives and meets the application requirements of humid environments.
[0017] 3. This invention uses a composite bio-based formaldehyde-free matrix composed of tannins, modified furfuryl alcohol, and oxidized polyvinyl alcohol, combined with cationic or carboxylated polyacrylamide crosslinking aids, which can significantly improve the bonding performance and mechanical strength of the adhesive. The bonding strength is ≥1.5MPa, which meets the GB / T9846-2015 standard. It is suitable for various artificial boards such as plywood, particleboard, and fiberboard, as well as furniture manufacturing, building decoration and other fields, with a wide range of applications.
[0018] 4. The preparation process of this invention does not require high temperature and high pressure conditions. The reaction can be completed at room temperature to 60°C. It has low energy consumption, simple operation, no harmful gas emissions, and high production safety. The components use bio-based raw materials (tannin, furfuryl alcohol, etc.), which are widely available and low in cost. Combined with conventional flame retardants and waterproofing components, the overall production cost is lower than that of synthetic formaldehyde-free adhesives. Moreover, the components have good compatibility, the preparation process is stable, and it is easy to realize large-scale industrial production.
[0019] 5. This invention effectively inhibits the runaway polymerization of furfuryl alcohol and the stratification of its components by adding disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate or sodium citrate as stabilizers, thereby improving the storage stability of the adhesive. The filler is added after pretreatment with a silane coupling agent, which not only further improves the mechanical strength and water resistance of the adhesive, but also reduces production costs, balancing performance and economy. The dosage of each component has been optimized and screened, and the proportions are scientific, achieving a synergistic unity of formaldehyde-free, waterproof, flame-retardant, high strength, and high stability, with overall performance superior to existing formaldehyde-free adhesives.
