Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of resilient flooring technology, and specifically relates to a processing method for environmentally friendly resilient flooring. Background Technology

[0002] As a flooring material used inside high-speed rail / light rail carriages, flooring not only needs to be aesthetically pleasing, comfortable, flame-retardant, antibacterial, and easy to maintain, but also must not emit harmful odors in the enclosed space. Currently, domestically produced flooring is mainly used in high-speed rail passenger cars, while urban rail train flooring relies heavily on imported products. Therefore, the rail transit industry has placed high demands on flooring manufacturing, making the development of a high-performance, environmentally friendly, flame-retardant, and resilient domestically produced flooring imperative.

[0003] Currently, most of the flooring used on urban rail trains in China is imported, with major brands including Gerflor, Mondo, Nora, and Yazhuo. This includes both rubber and PVC flooring, with only a few lines using domestically produced rubber flooring. Furthermore, traditional resilient flooring often uses halogenated flame retardants, which, while effective, pose problems such as the release of toxic gases during combustion, bioaccumulation, and environmental pollution. Existing halogen-free flame retardants face challenges such as high dosage requirements, deterioration of mechanical properties, and poor water resistance. Moreover, the flooring currently in use is prone to bacterial growth due to prolonged use and the accumulation of pollutants such as tea and sweat, potentially impacting human health. Currently available flooring products do not meet the environmental performance standards required for the latest high-speed trains in China. With the rapid development of my country's high-speed rail and urban rail systems and the increasing demands for safety, the need for environmentally friendly halogen-free flame-retardant flooring is becoming increasingly urgent, necessitating innovative research and development in raw material selection and key production technologies.

Continue stirring at constant temperature for 8-10 hours. Cool to room temperature, filter, and then wash 3-5 times with anhydrous ethanol by centrifugation. Finally, vacuum dry at 60-70℃ for 6-8 hours to obtain modified nano zinc oxide for later use. 2) The obtained modified nano zinc oxide was ultrasonically dispersed in deionized water to obtain a modified nano zinc oxide aqueous dispersion. Then, 0.1 to 0.2 times the mass of modified nano zinc oxide silver nitrate was added to deionized water and stirred to dissolve to obtain a silver nitrate solution. The silver nitrate solution was added to the modified nano zinc oxide aqueous dispersion and stirred for another 2 to 3 hours. After vacuum drying at 60 to 70°C for 6 to 8 hours, the mixture was pulverized to obtain Ag / ZnO nanocomposite antibacterial agent. 3) Place the Ag / ZnO nanocomposite antibacterial agent obtained in step 2) in a plasma reaction chamber, introduce argon gas, treat with 3~4kW for 2~4min, then ultrasonically disperse it in anhydrous ethanol.

[0014] The present invention has the following advantages over the prior art: This invention provides a processing method for environmentally friendly resilient flooring. Using polyolefins, EPDM rubber, halogen-free flame retardants, and surface-modified Ag / ZnO nanocomposite antibacterial agents as raw materials, the method involves processes such as mixing, extrusion, and irradiation. The resulting environmentally friendly resilient flooring not only possesses excellent antibacterial and flame-retardant properties but also exhibits excellent wear resistance and aging resistance, and is environmentally friendly. This invention, through innovative research on the selection of flooring raw materials and key production technologies, has developed a functional, green, and environmentally friendly resilient flooring. This not only provides a healthy living environment for people during their travels but also has significant practical implications for the industrial upgrading of high-quality flooring used in my country's rail transit sector and for expanding the application fields of flooring.

[0015] First, this invention modifies ammonium polyphosphate with a silane coupling agent to obtain modified ammonium polyphosphate. This modification treatment improves its hydrolysis resistance and compatibility with polymers. Montmorillonite is then modified with quaternary ammonium salts followed by phytic acid intercalation. Phytic acid provides a phosphorus source, and the layered structure of montmorillonite slows gas diffusion, synergistically inhibiting combustion. At this stage, the montmorillonite has a large interlayer spacing. Tannic acid is then intercalated into the interlayer, and its polyphenolic structure coordinates with the metal ions in the initially modified montmorillonite layers, forming a stable complex. The resulting modified ammonium polyphosphate, hydroxyapatite nanowires, and modified montmorillonite are mixed using variable-speed stirring to obtain a homogeneous halogen-free flame retardant. When used in the processing of environmentally friendly resilient flooring, it exhibits excellent compatibility with polymers, imparting superior flame retardancy to the resilient flooring.

[0016] Secondly, the surface of nano-zinc oxide is modified with allylmethyldimethoxysilane. The methoxy groups on allylmethyldimethoxysilane react with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of nano-zinc oxide, improving dispersibility and preventing aggregation. Simultaneously, the double bonds can participate in subsequent cross-linking. Then, silver is doped into the modified nano-zinc oxide to prepare an Ag / ZnO nanocomposite antibacterial agent with superior antibacterial properties. At this point, high-energy particles and active groups in plasma interact with the surface of the nano-antibacterial agent, introducing a large number of active groups onto the surface of the Ag / ZnO nano-antibacterial agent, thereby enhancing its interaction with bacteria and further improving its antibacterial performance. Finally, the Ag / ZnO nano-antibacterial agent is further modified using a bifunctional ionic liquid. The amino groups in the ionic liquid bind to ZnO through coordination bonds, and hydrophobic chains (such as long alkyl chains) enhance compatibility with the polymer matrix, while simultaneously releasing antibacterial ions (such as BH3). - ) and Ag + The synergistic effect further enhances the antibacterial properties of the antibacterial agent. Furthermore, the ionic liquid is biodegradable, avoiding the environmental pollution caused by traditional organic solvents, making it more environmentally friendly.

[0017] Finally, irradiation promotes cross-linking. The cross-linked network structure of polyolefins formed by irradiation curing helps to isolate the formation of carbon layers during combustion, further enhancing the flame retardant properties of the composite material. At the same time, through irradiation, it promotes the formation of a stable whole with excellent mechanical properties.

[0018] This invention not only provides a method for processing environmentally friendly resilient flooring, but also provides a highly efficient flame retardant and antibacterial agent for the chemical industry. Detailed Implementation
