Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of snow melting agents, and in particular to a biodegradable snow melting agent and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Winter snow and ice accumulation on roads severely impacts traffic safety and efficiency, making the application of de-icing agents the most widespread and effective active snow and ice removal method. Traditional chloride-based de-icing agents dominate the market due to their abundant resources, low cost, and high snow-melting efficiency. However, chlorides cannot be effectively decomposed by microorganisms in nature, making them persistent pollutants. Chloride ions have a strong corrosive effect on metals and reinforced concrete structures, leading to significant economic losses and safety hazards. Therefore, there is a need to develop a de-icing agent that combines high snow-melting efficiency, low corrosivity, and biodegradability.
[0003] In related technologies, a biodegradable snow-melting and de-icing agent is disclosed, containing the following components by weight percentage: 20%–60% freezing point lowering agent, 1%–8% ice lattice disruptor, 2%–5% anti-icing adhesion agent, 0.05%–2% thickener, 0.05%–5% surfactant, and the balance being solvent. The ice lattice disruptor is polyether-modified heptamethyltrisiloxane or 1,2-di(triethoxysilyl)ethane, and the anti-icing adhesion agent is one of 2,6,10,14-tetramethylpentadecane, triacontadecene, or 2,6,10,15,19,23-hexamethyltetracosane.
[0004] However, the aforementioned biodegradable snow-melting and de-icing agents contain a large amount of organic matter such as organosilicon / silane compounds and long-chain alkanes. Organosilicon compounds and long-chain alkanes have poor compatibility with water-based solvents. Even when emulsions or dispersions are formed with the help of surfactants and thickeners, they are extremely unstable at low temperatures and are prone to demulsification, stratification, and solidification, leading to difficulties in storage, transportation, and use. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To improve the low-temperature stability of biodegradable snow melting and de-icing agents, this application provides a biodegradable snow melting agent and its preparation method.
[0006] Firstly, this application provides a biodegradable snow-melting agent, which adopts the following technical solution: A biodegradable de-icing agent comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 30-50 parts of freezing point lowering agent, 3-8 parts of sodium gluconate, 1-3 parts of bio-based fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, 0.6-2.5 parts of composite emulsifying thickener, 2-5 parts of low-temperature antifreeze enhancer, and 50-60 parts of water. The composite emulsifying thickener comprises locust bean gum and sucrose ester in a weight ratio of 1:(4-10).
[0007] In one specific implementation, the freezing point lowering agent includes at least one of potassium formate, potassium acetate, potassium lactate, and potassium propylene glycol.
[0008] In one specific implementation, the cryogenic antifreeze enhancer is ethylene glycol butyl ether or polyethylene glycol 400.
[0009] In one specific feasible embodiment, the bio-based fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether is prepared according to the following steps: Natural fatty alcohols and solid base catalysts are mixed at a weight ratio of 100:(0.25-0.4), heated to 100-120℃, vacuumed, and dehydrated to obtain pretreated material; Under nitrogen protection, the pretreated material is heated to 150-180℃, ethylene oxide is introduced, and the pressure is increased to 0.2-0.5MPa. The rate of ethylene oxide introduction is adjusted, and the pressure is maintained at 0.2-0.5MPa. After all the ethylene oxide has been introduced, the mixture is kept warm and stirred for 30-60 minutes to obtain the reaction material. The reactants were cooled to 80-100℃, the pH was adjusted to 6-7, and then cooled to room temperature to obtain bio-based fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether.
[0010] In one specific implementation scheme, the mass ratio of ethylene oxide to natural fatty alcohol is (1.54-2.2):1.
[0011] In one specific implementation, the natural fatty alcohol is any one of lauryl alcohol, cocoyl alcohol, and oleyl alcohol.
[0012] In one specific implementation, the biodegradable de-icing agent further includes trehalose.
[0013] Secondly, this application provides a method for preparing a biodegradable snow-melting agent, which adopts the following technical solution: A method for preparing a biodegradable snow melting agent includes the following steps: Dissolve sucrose ester in water, add locust bean gum, mix well, shear and disperse at 1500-2000 rpm for 15-20 minutes, heat to 70-75℃, stir at 300-400 rpm for 30-45 minutes to obtain composite colloidal base liquid; Sodium gluconate and low-temperature antifreeze enhancer were added to the composite colloidal base solution under stirring and stirred evenly to obtain the aqueous phase component; the freezing point lowering agent was added to the aqueous phase component, the temperature was kept ≤45℃, and stirred evenly to obtain the salt-gel composite solution. Under stirring, bio-based fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether is added to the salt glue composite liquid, and homogenized by circulation under a pressure of 25-35 MPa. After homogenization, degassing and filtration are performed to obtain a biodegradable snow melting agent.
[0014] In summary, this application has the following beneficial effects: 1. This application improves the low-temperature stability of biodegradable snow-melting and de-icing agents by using a limited ratio of a freezing point lowering agent, sodium gluconate, bio-based fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, a composite emulsifying thickener, a low-temperature antifreeze enhancer, and water, wherein the composite emulsifying thickener includes locust bean gum and sucrose ester in a weight ratio of 1:(4-10).

[0061] Performance testing The following performance tests were conducted on the biodegradable de-icing agents prepared in Examples 1-20 and Comparative Examples 1-5: A 30mm thick ice layer was placed in a test chamber at -30℃, and a biodegradable de-icing agent was sprayed onto the ice surface at a dosage of 30g / m². 2 The ice melting process was observed, and the time required for the ice to completely melt was recorded. A blank control group was also set up without the application of the biodegradable de-icing agent. The snow-melting and ice-reducing rate (mm / min) was calculated based on the formula: ice thickness / time for complete ice melting. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0062] The biodegradable de-icing agent was stirred at 25±2℃ for 30 minutes and then dispensed into multiple clean, dry centrifuge tubes, filling each tube to 80% capacity. The dispensed centrifuge tubes were placed in a -20℃ low-temperature test chamber. After 7 days, they were removed and centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 30 minutes at 4±1℃. Immediately after centrifugation, the percentage of sediment at the bottom of the centrifuge tube relative to the total volume was calculated. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0063] Table 1 Combining Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-5 with Table 1, it can be seen that compared to Example 1, the percentage of sediment volume at the bottom of the centrifuge tubes in Comparative Examples 1-5 is significantly increased, exceeding 4%. Furthermore, the snow melting speed in Comparative Examples 2-4 is significantly reduced. This indicates that using the raw material ratio and preparation method of Example 1 helps to improve the low-temperature stability of the biodegradable snow melting and de-icing agent while maintaining a high snow melting speed, and reduces phenomena such as demulsification, stratification, and solidification of the snow melting agent at low temperatures.
[0064] As can be seen from Examples 1-20 and Table 1, the snow melting speed of Examples 1-20 is relatively high, and the percentage of sediment volume at the bottom of the centrifuge tube to the total volume is less than 2%. This indicates that by using the raw material ratios and preparation methods within the range of Examples 1-20, the low-temperature stability of the biodegradable snow melting and de-icing agent can be improved while maintaining a high snow melting speed.
[0065] By comparing the test data of each embodiment, it can be seen that using a mass ratio of ethylene oxide to natural fatty alcohol of (1.54-2.2):1 and adding trehalose both help to further improve the low-temperature stability of biodegradable snow melting and de-icing agents.
