Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of polymer materials technology, specifically relating to a modified polypropylene material and its application in HPPM double-wall corrugated pipes. Background Technology
[0002] Polypropylene, as a general-purpose plastic, is widely used in HPPM double-wall corrugated pipes due to its excellent physical properties, ease of molding and processing, and low density. Furthermore, polypropylene is playing an increasingly important role in the plastics industry because of its lightweight, high strength, good weldability, long service life, and low manufacturing and installation costs. However, polypropylene also has some inherent weaknesses, such as poor flame retardancy, low notched impact strength, and susceptibility to photo-oxidation under ultraviolet light, leading to a reduced service life. In addition, with the improvement of living standards, people are paying more and more attention to the quality of drinking water, and the requirements are becoming increasingly stringent. Therefore, the development and use of antibacterial pipes to improve water quality and pipeline hygiene, and reduce the adhesion and growth of bacteria and microorganisms, has great development potential. Currently, the most widely used antibacterial agents are those made using the bactericidal and bacteriostatic properties of metals such as silver and zinc and their ions. However, these antibacterial agents are physically mixed with polypropylene pipes, resulting in poor long-lasting antibacterial performance. The silver and zinc metals are also prone to migration, affecting the performance of the pipes. Summary of the Invention

[0013] The application of the modified polypropylene material described above in HPPM double-wall corrugated pipes.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are: This invention utilizes a nucleophilic substitution reaction between the amino group in ethyl 2-amino-4-methylthiazol-5-carboxylate and the terminal bromine atom of 1,4-dibromobutane to prepare a bromine-substituted intermediate. Then, a transesterification reaction is performed between 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinol and the bromine-substituted intermediate to prepare a hindered amine-type bromine-substituted intermediate. Simultaneously, this invention first prepares graphitic carbon nitride by calcining the precursor melamine, then heats it with ethylenediamine to synthesize amino-modified graphitic carbon nitride. Finally, the ungrafted bromine atom in the hindered amine-type bromine-substituted intermediate is used to react with the amino-modified graphitic carbon. Modified graphitic carbon nitride is prepared by grafting carbon nitride. Graphitic carbon nitride is a typical non-metallic photocatalytic bactericidal material. This invention modifies graphitic carbon nitride through chemical means by introducing thiazole groups with antibacterial activity and hindered amine functional groups with ultraviolet absorption into its molecular skeleton, thereby enhancing the photocatalytic antibacterial ability and UV aging resistance of graphitic carbon nitride. At the same time, the modification of the hindered amine bromine-substituted intermediate promotes more uniform dispersion of graphitic carbon nitride in the matrix material, realizing nano-reinforcement and functionalization.
[0015] This invention utilizes the Schiff base reaction between 4-imidazolium formaldehyde and p-phenylenediamine to prepare a Schiff base product. Then, the -NH group in the imidazolium ring structure of the Schiff base product undergoes a nucleophilic substitution reaction with hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene to prepare a substituted cyclotriphosphazene. Subsequently, the Schiff base group formed in the substituted cyclotriphosphazene undergoes a nucleophilic addition reaction with DOPO to prepare a cyclotriphosphazene derivative. Simultaneously, this invention utilizes nitric acid oxidation of multi-walled carbon nanotubes to enrich the surface of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes with carboxyl groups. Then, the multi-walled carbon nanotubes are chlorinated with thionyl chloride, followed by a grafting reaction with the ungrafted amino groups in the cyclotriphosphazene derivative. Modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes were prepared. These multi-walled carbon nanotubes possess a unique nanoscale tubular structure and a large aspect ratio, exhibiting excellent mechanical properties. Furthermore, the continuous and independent protective layer formed after combustion can act as a barrier to block oxygen and heat. By using a chemical reaction, cyclotriphosphazene derivatives were firmly bonded to the surface of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes, thereby simultaneously introducing multiple flame-retardant elements, phosphorus and nitrogen, significantly improving the flame-retardant efficiency. The introduced imidazole groups also possess certain antibacterial activity. In addition, the grafting reaction improved the compatibility between the multi-walled carbon nanotubes and the matrix material, preventing the agglomeration of nanoparticles that would lead to a decline in mechanical properties.

[0035] The preparation method of the modified polypropylene material is the same as in Example 4.
[0036] Performance testing The modified polypropylene materials prepared in Examples 4-6 and Comparative Examples 3-6 were subjected to performance testing: (1) Mechanical properties and UV aging resistance test: The tensile properties were tested using a universal testing machine according to GB / T 1040.2-2022. The tensile specimen size was 100mm×5mm×3.5mm. The impact strength was tested according to GB / T 1843-2008. The specimen size was 80mm×10mm×4mm. The sample was irradiated with a 40W UV lamp at 60℃ for a total of 72h. The sample was turned over 36h to ensure uniform irradiation. Then the change rate of tensile strength and elongation at break was tested. The distance between the sample and the lamp tube was 254mm. The UV aging resistance of the sample was evaluated. The data results are shown in Table 1.
[0037] (2) Flame retardant performance test: The limiting oxygen index and vertical burning rating of the samples were tested in accordance with GB / T 2408-2021 to evaluate the flame retardant performance of the samples. The data results are shown in Table 1.
[0038] (3) Antibacterial performance test: The antibacterial rate of the samples was tested in accordance with GB / T 21866-2008. The test species were Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The data results are shown in Table 1.
[0039] Table 1 Sample performance test results
[0040] As can be seen from the data in Table 1, the modified polypropylene materials prepared in Examples 4-6 of this invention have high tensile strength, are not easily broken, have good impact resistance, and also possess good UV aging resistance, flame retardant properties, and antibacterial properties. In Comparative Example 3, the modified graphitic carbon nitride was not grafted with 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinol. In Comparative Example 4, the modified graphitic carbon nitride was replaced with an equal amount of amino-modified graphitic carbon nitride. The measured changes in tensile strength and elongation at break in Comparative Examples 3-4 were significantly different from those in Examples 4-6. This is because the hindered amine functional groups with UV absorption were not introduced, leading to a decrease in UV aging resistance. Furthermore, the measured mechanical properties and antibacterial properties in Comparative Example 4 were lower than those in Examples 4-6. This is because the modification with the hindered amine-type bromine-substituted intermediate promoted a more uniform distribution of the graphitic carbon nitride. Dispersed in the matrix material, nano-reinforcement is achieved. At the same time, the introduction of thiazole groups improves the antibacterial properties of the material to a certain extent. The modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes added in Comparative Example 5 were not grafted with DOPO, and the multi-walled carbon nanotubes in Comparative Example 6 were not modified. The flame retardant properties of Comparative Examples 5-6 were found to be lower than those of Examples 4-6, and the decrease was more significant in Comparative Example 6. In addition, the mechanical properties and antibacterial properties of Comparative Example 6 were found to be lower than those of Examples 4-6. The possible reason is that the multi-walled carbon nanotubes agglomerate, which leads to a decrease in mechanical properties. This also indicates that the introduced imidazole groups have certain antibacterial activity.
