Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of high-performance polymers, specifically relating to a biodegradable bio-based copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive with high adhesive strength and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] While traditional pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) are widely used due to their simple synthesis process, excellent adhesion, and low production cost, their monomers are mostly derived from petroleum-based chemicals such as acrylates. These raw materials are difficult to degrade in the natural environment and lack necessary biocompatibility, easily causing microplastic pollution and ecological accumulation risks during use and disposal. Therefore, they fail to meet the stringent requirements for green, environmentally friendly, and sustainable materials. To address this issue, bio-based raw materials are increasingly being used in the synthesis of PSAs, and the introduction of functional monomers imparts biodegradability, significantly improving the performance and application range of PSAs.

[0003] Lactic acid is mainly obtained through the microbial fermentation of carbohydrates (such as corn starch and sugarcane), making it an abundant and renewable source. Its polymer, polylactic acid (PLA), is considered one of the most promising alternatives to traditional petroleum-based plastics due to its excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability, good mechanical strength, and thermoplasticity, showing broad application prospects in food packaging, textiles, automotive parts, agricultural mulch films, and biomedical engineering. Starting from lactic acid as a platform compound, the design and synthesis of (methyl)lactic acid acrylate monomers, and subsequently the preparation of functional polymers with well-defined structures and tunable properties, has become an important direction in the current field of bio-based polymer research.

[0004] Lipoic acid is a natural, endogenous small molecule, first isolated from the liver, and widely present in cell membranes, cytoplasm, and mitochondria, thus exhibiting good biocompatibility. Its unique disulfide five-membered ring structure can undergo copolymerization with acrylate monomers via ring-opening free radical polymerization, introducing degradable CS and SS bonds into the polymer chain. The carboxyl groups on the polymer side chains can generate strong intermolecular forces with various substrate surfaces, thereby significantly improving polymer adhesion.

[0005] This invention develops a biodegradable bio-based copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive with high adhesive strength. Through a mild photolysis-controlled polymerization method and a traditional free radical polymerization method, the controlled copolymerization of lactic acid monomers and thioctic acid is achieved. The reaction system conforms to the principles of green chemistry, and the resulting pressure-sensitive adhesive has good biocompatibility, avoiding the potential impact of residues on material performance and the environment. It is expected to have wide applications in the biomedical field. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a biodegradable bio-based copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive with high adhesive strength and its preparation method.

[0029] The method and copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive of the present invention have the following advantages:

[0096] Samples were prepared using the coating method for overlap shear testing and to obtain test results.

[0097] 60 mg of purified copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesives with different molecular weights and similar thioctic acid content prepared in Example 1 were accurately weighed. An aluminum sheet was placed on a heating stage preheated to 70 °C, and the 60 mg copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive sample was placed on the surface of the aluminum sheet. After the sample melted upon heating, it was uniformly coated onto the aluminum sheet, with a coating area controlled at 2.5 cm × 1 cm. After coating, the aluminum sheet was removed from the heating stage and cooled to room temperature. The lap shear test was performed on a universal testing machine (5944) using a 2 kN load cell and adhesive surface clamps, with a tensile rate set to 50 mm / min.–1 The test substrate was an aluminum sheet (GB / T 7124). Before testing, another blank aluminum sheet was overlapped with the aluminum sheet coated with copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive. The overlap length was 1 cm, and the overlap area was 2.5 cm × 1 cm. Dovetail clips were used to hold the overlapped aluminum sheet in place for 2 minutes to ensure a tight interface. The overlapped aluminum sheet was then mounted on a universal testing machine, ensuring the overlapped sample was positioned at the center line of force. Testing then began until adhesion failure occurred in the overlapped area. (See [link to relevant documentation]). Figure 17 The instrument automatically records force and displacement data. See below. Figure 18 For each sample with a different molecular weight, three parallel samples were set up for parallel testing.

[0100] Samples were prepared using the hot-press slicing method for lap shear testing and to obtain test results.

[0101] All purified copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesives with similar molecular weights and different thioctic acid contents prepared in Example 2 were transferred onto a PDMS film, and then completely covered with another PDMS film. The film was then hot-pressed for 1 minute using a preheated hot press to 60 °C to form a film with a thickness of approximately 0.5 mm. After cooling to room temperature, the film was cut into square sample pieces with an area of ​​1 cm × 1 cm, with PDMS film retained on both sides for protection. Overlap shear tests were performed on a universal testing machine (5944) using a 2 kN load cell and adhesive surface clamps, with a tensile rate set to 50 mm / min. –1The test substrate was an aluminum sheet (GB / T 7124). Before testing, the PDMS film on one side of the sample sheet was peeled off and adhered to an aluminum sheet. Then, the PDMS film on the other side of the sample sheet was peeled off and overlapped with another aluminum sheet. The overlap length was 1 cm, and the overlap area was 1 cm × 1 cm. Dovetail clips were used to hold and fix the sample for 2 minutes to ensure a tight fit. The overlapped aluminum sheet was then mounted on a universal testing machine, ensuring the overlapped sample was positioned at the center line of force. Testing then began until adhesion failure occurred in the overlap area. (See [link to relevant documentation]). Figure 20 The instrument automatically records force and displacement data. See below. Figure 21 For each sample with different lipoic acid content, three parallel samples were set up for parallel testing.

[0102] The lap shear adhesion strength of the copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive was obtained by processing the force and displacement data. At similar molecular weights, the average adhesion strength of the copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive was 0.96 MPa when the thioctic acid content was 9.8 mol%; 1.12 MPa when the thioctic acid content was 19.2 mol%; and 0.59 MPa when the thioctic acid content was 29.3 mol%. (See [reference needed]). Figure 22 .

[0103] The bio-based copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive obtained by conventional free radical polymerization in Example 3 was subjected to an overlap shear test using the same sample preparation method. Adhesion failure occurred in the overlap area (see [reference needed]). Figure 23 The instrument automatically records force and displacement data. See below. Figure 24 The sample was tested in parallel with three parallel samples. The average adhesion strength was 1.81 MPa. See [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 25 .

[0104] Example 6: Degradation of copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive using a reductive degradation method

[0105] The number-average molecular weight obtained in Example 1 was 75.9 kg mol. –1 Degradation of a copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive with a dispersion of 1.25 and a thioctic acid content of 9.1 mol%: 150 mg of the copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive was dissolved in 1 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide, and 0.0142 mg of dithiothreitol (DTT) (molar ratio to copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive 1:50) was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature in the dark for 12 hours. After 12 hours of degradation, GPC analysis showed that the number average molecular weight of the copolymer pressure-sensitive adhesive decreased to 14.9 kg mol. –1 See Figure 26 .
