Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of functional polymer materials, and more specifically, to a polymer with antibacterial sustained-release function and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Polyamide materials are widely used in antibacterial fabrics, functional coatings, medical and hygiene products, and household products due to their excellent mechanical strength, wear resistance, processability, and chemical resistance. However, pure polyamide materials do not have active antibacterial properties and cannot meet the needs of hygiene protection and high-end products. Therefore, antibacterial modification of polyamide materials has become the core direction of industry research and industrialization. Existing polyamide antibacterial modification technologies mostly employ organic antibacterial agents or simple inorganic antibacterial agent compound schemes, which have significant drawbacks and cannot simultaneously guarantee long-term antibacterial effect, processing stability, and safety of use. Firstly, although organic antibacterial agents such as chitosan and chitosan oligosaccharides have a certain degree of biocompatibility, they are only physically blended with the polyamide matrix. During repeated washing of fabrics, long-term immersion of coatings in water, and long-term use of products, they are prone to migration, dissolution, and loss, leading to a rapid decline in antibacterial performance and making it impossible to guarantee long-term antibacterial effect. Moreover, these organic antibacterial agents have poor heat resistance and are prone to thermal degradation and carbonization during high-temperature melt processing of polyamide (above 180°C), resulting in the loss of antibacterial activity.
[0003] Patent application CN102241887A discloses an antibacterial polyamide material, which is composed of polyamide resin, antibacterial agent, compatibilizer and antioxidant; the antibacterial agent is one or more of chitosan, chitosan oligosaccharide and its derivatives.
[0004] In this technical solution, the chitosan-based organic antibacterial agent and the polyamide matrix are mainly bonded through physical blending. The bonding force is weak, the antibacterial agent is easily lost, and the heat resistance of the chitosan-based antibacterial agent is a prominent shortcoming. It cannot be adapted to the mainstream processing technology of polyamide such as high-temperature melt extrusion, spinning, and injection molding. The material lacks both antibacterial durability and processing stability, which severely limits its application scenarios. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing organic antibacterial agents, such as easy loss and poor heat resistance, this application provides a polymer with antibacterial sustained-release function and its preparation method.
[0006] In a first aspect, this application provides a method for preparing a polymer with antibacterial sustained-release function, employing the following technical solution: A method for preparing a polymer with antibacterial sustained-release function includes the following steps: S1: Under an inert atmosphere, terminal amino hyperbranched polyamide, p-aldehyde benzoic acid and dehydrating agent are added to a reactor, the temperature is raised to 60~80℃, and the reaction is carried out for 45~60 min. Then, a carboxyl-containing heterocyclic compound, a catalyst and N,N-dimethylformamide are added, the temperature is raised to 80~100℃, and the reaction is carried out for 2~6 h. Then, a metal salt is added, and the reaction is carried out for 1~2 h. After cooling, an antibacterial intermediate is obtained. S2: In an inert atmosphere, antibacterial intermediates, bio-based polyamides and antioxidants are mixed in proportion, extruded through an extruder, cooled and granulated to obtain a high molecular polymer.
[0007] In this technical solution, aldehyde benzoic acid forms partial imine bonds with amino-terminated hyperbranched polyamide to construct a reversible network. Subsequently, a carboxyl-containing heterocyclic compound is incorporated into the hyperbranched network through an amidation reaction, introducing metal coordination sites. Finally, metal ions are introduced to achieve anchoring through coordination. The resulting antibacterial intermediate is then melt-blended with bio-based polyamide and antioxidant under an inert atmosphere, followed by extrusion granulation to uniformly disperse the antibacterial component in the polyamide matrix, ultimately yielding a polymer with long-lasting antibacterial properties, sustained-release characteristics, and excellent processing stability.
[0008] Preferably, the bio-based polyamide is one or more of PA11, PA510, and PA610.
[0009] Preferably, the extruder is a twin-screw extruder, and the temperature ranges of each section of the twin-screw extruder are 200~210℃, 210~220℃, 220~230℃, 230~235℃ and 230~235℃ respectively.
[0010] Preferably, the dehydrating agent is a molecular sieve.
[0011] Preferably, the amount of the dehydrating agent is 2 to 3 times the mass of p-aldehyde benzoic acid.
[0012] Preferably, the catalyst is a carbodiimide, and more preferably dicyclohexylcarbodiimide.
[0013] Preferably, the amount of catalyst used is 3% to 5% of the total molar amount of p-aldehyde benzoic acid and carboxyl-containing heterocyclic compounds.
[0014] In this technical solution, carbodiimide catalysts can activate carboxyl groups, promote their amidation reaction with amino groups, and achieve effective grafting under low temperature conditions.
[0015] Preferably, the antioxidant includes antioxidant 1098 and antioxidant 168.
[0016] Preferably, the molar ratio of the terminal amino hyperbranched polyamide (based on the terminal amino group), p-aldehyde benzoic acid, carboxyl-containing heterocyclic compound and metal salt is 1:(0.2~0.3):(0.15~0.25):(0.08~0.15).
[0017] In this technical solution, the preferred molar ratio is adopted to ensure that the proportions of each functional component are coordinated: the aldehyde group of p-aldehyde benzoic acid forms an imine bond with some of the terminal amino groups, and the carboxyl-containing heterocyclic compound undergoes an amidation reaction with the remaining terminal amino groups to introduce metal coordination sites.
[0018] Preferably, the mass ratio of the antibacterial intermediate, the bio-based polyamide, and the antioxidant is (5~25):(75~95):(0.2~0.5).
[0019] Preferably, the carboxyl-containing heterocyclic compound is one or more of 3-hydroxy-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid and 4-pyridinecarboxylic acid.
[0020] In this technical solution, the carboxyl group of the carboxyl-containing heterocyclic compound participates in the amidation reaction and is incorporated into the hyperbranched network. Its heterocyclic nitrogen atom can coordinate with metal ions to form a stable complex structure.
[0021] Preferably, the metal salt is one or more of silver acetate, zinc acetate, and copper acetate.
[0022] In this technical solution, metal ions are ensured to be uniformly dispersed and fully combined with coordination sites in the network, and acetate ions have few side reactions in subsequent processing.
[0023] Preferably, in step S2, after the bio-based polyamide, a step of adding toluene diisocyanate accounting for 1% to 5% of the mass of the antibacterial intermediate is further included.
[0024] In this technical solution, toluene diisocyanate can react with residual amino groups in the hyperbranched network during melt blending to form additional crosslinking points, thereby regulating the density of the network and affecting the release behavior of antibacterial ions.
[0025] Preferably, in step S1, after adding the carboxyl-containing heterocyclic compound, the step further includes adding quercetin and / or gallic acid.
[0026] Preferably, the molar ratio of quercetin or gallic acid to terminal amino hyperbranched polyamide (based on terminal amino groups) is (0.03~0.07):1.
[0027] In this technical solution, quercetin contains multiple phenolic hydroxyl groups, which can coordinate with metal ions; gallic acid contains both phenolic hydroxyl groups and carboxyl groups, and its carboxyl groups can participate in amidation reactions to connect to the network, while the phenolic hydroxyl groups are used for metal coordination.
[0028] Secondly, this application provides a polymer with antibacterial sustained-release function prepared by the above-mentioned preparation method.
[0029] In this technical solution, metal ions in the polymer are slowly released during use based on the synergistic effect of chemical anchoring and physical barrier, giving the material long-lasting antibacterial properties and processing stability.
[0030] In summary, this application has the following beneficial effects: In the antibacterial intermediate of this application, the imine bond introduced by p-aldehyde benzoic acid can undergo hydrolysis under slightly acidic conditions, causing a change in the network structure; the heterocyclic nitrogen atom provided by the carboxyl-containing heterocyclic compound forms a coordination structure with the metal ion; and the reaction forms a three-dimensional network that physically blocks the diffusion of metal ions. Through the synergistic effect of the above chemical anchoring and physical barrier, the metal ions are slowly released during use, endowing the polymer with long-lasting antibacterial properties and processing stability. Optional crosslinking agents can further regulate the network density, and optional phenolic compounds can enhance the coordination anchoring of metal ions. Detailed Implementation

After pulverizing the polymer with antibacterial sustained-release function, 0.75 g was accurately weighed, sterilized, and then added to 70 mL of phosphate buffer (pH approximately 7.3 ± 0.1) and 5 mL of bacterial suspension (concentration approximately 1 × 10⁻⁶). 5 In a conical flask containing (CFU / mL) of nutrient agar, the culture was incubated at 36±1℃ and 150 r / min for 18 h with shaking. The viable bacterial concentration before and after shaking was determined using the nutrient agar pour plate counting method, and the inhibition rate was calculated. Antibacterial rate (%) = (W t -Q t ) / W t ; Among them, W t Q represents the average viable bacterial concentration (CFU / mL) after shaking three control samples. t The average viable bacterial concentration (CFU / mL) of the three test samples after shaking was calculated. Pure bio-based polyamide was used as a blank control group. Three parallel samples were set up in each group, and the average value was taken. 2. Antibacterial sustained-release performance test: Static leaching method was used: Polymers with antibacterial sustained-release function were prepared into sheets of 10mm×10mm×2mm, accurately weighed and then soaked in 50mL of leaching medium, and shaken at 37℃ (100rpm). The leaching medium was divided into 3 groups: (1) deionized water; (2) Escherichia coli culture medium: each liter contained 10.0g tryptone, 5.0g yeast powder and 5.0g sodium chloride, the pH was adjusted to 7.0±0.2, and after high-pressure sterilization at 121℃ for 15min, Escherichia coli ATCC25922 was inoculated, and the initial bacterial concentration was about 1×10 5 CFU / mL; (3) Staphylococcus aureus culture medium: each liter contains 17.0g tryptone, 3.0g soybean peptone, 5.0g sodium chloride, 2.5g dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, and 2.5g glucose. The pH is adjusted to 7.3±0.2. After autoclaving at 121℃ for 15min, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538 is inoculated. The initial bacterial concentration is about 1×10⁻⁶. 5CFU / mL; 2mL samples were taken after 1 day, and the concentration of metal ions in the leachate was determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, and the release rate per unit area was calculated. Release rate (μg / (cm) 2 ·h))=C×V / (A×t; Where C is the concentration of metal ions in the leachate (μg / mL), V is the volume of the leachate medium (mL), and A is the surface area of the sample (cm²). 2 ), t is the leaching time (h), and 3 parallel samples are set for each group, and the average value is taken.

[0055] As can be seen from the performance test results in Tables 1 and 2, the polymers prepared in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-2 all exhibited high antibacterial rates against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. However, there were significant differences in the tensile strength and metal ion release rate of the polymers in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-2. This indicates that the coordination sites introduced by 3-hydroxy-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid and p-aldehyde benzoic acid, in synergy with the network structure formed between the terminal amino hyperbranched polyamide, can not only effectively anchor antibacterial metal ions and inhibit the explosive release of metal ions to achieve long-term controllable sustained release, but also improve the compatibility and structural stability of the system. At the same time, with the increase of toluene diisocyanate, the mechanical properties of the polymer were improved. The addition of quercetin and gallic acid further enhanced the coordination effect of metal ions, reduced the release rate, and optimized the mechanical properties, so that the material can maintain excellent antibacterial properties while possessing better mechanical properties and service durability.
