Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of leather chemicals technology, and relates to an intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent. This invention also relates to a method for preparing the above-mentioned intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent. Background Technology
[0002] Fatliquoring is a crucial step in leather tanning. It involves introducing oil-based fatliquoring agents into the leather fiber structure, allowing them to distribute between collagen fibers and act as a lubricant, thereby improving the leather's softness, fullness, and elasticity. However, fatliquoring agents are primarily composed of oily substances. While imparting excellent softness to the leather, they can increase heat release during combustion or decrease heat resistance, leading to insufficient flame retardancy. In particular, they are prone to high heat release rates and weak charring ability during combustion, making it difficult to meet the application requirements of high-performance flame-retardant leather and, to some extent, affecting the leather's safety performance.
[0003] Castor oil, a widely available natural vegetable oil, boasts advantages such as low cost, non-toxicity, and renewability, making it widely used in leather fatliquoring to effectively improve the softness and feel of leather. However, in practical applications, fatliquoring agents with castor oil as the main component are prone to oil migration and accumulation on the leather surface under heating conditions, leading to increased flammability and thus limiting its application in fields requiring high flame retardancy.
[0004] Current research has attempted to introduce functional components to improve flame retardant performance. However, in practical applications, functional components often have a layered structure, which is prone to agglomeration and stacking in fatliquoring agents. The flame retardant components have poor dispersibility and compatibility, making it difficult to form a stable and uniform dispersion system, thus limiting the flame retardant performance. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for preparing a composite fatliquoring agent of intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil. This method involves using sodium phytate-intercalated hydrotalcite and phosphate-modified castor oil. The interlayer structure of layered double hydroxide (LDH) is regulated by sodium phytate intercalation, and in-situ composite formation is achieved during the phosphate esterification process of castor oil. This improves the dispersion stability of LDH in phosphate-modified castor oil and enhances the compatibility of the two components. This solves the problems of poor dispersion and compatibility of flame-retardant components and low flame-retardant efficiency in existing fatliquoring agents.
[0006] A second objective of this invention is to provide an intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent.
[0007] A third objective of this invention is to provide the application of an intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent.
[0008] The technical solution adopted in this invention is a method for preparing an intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent, which is implemented according to the following steps: Step 1, Preparation of intercalated hydrotalcite (Phy-LDH); Step 1.1: Prepare the metal salt solution; Step 1.2: Prepare an aqueous solution of sodium phytate and mix it with a metal salt solution to obtain a mixed solution; Step 1.3, Preparation of Phy-LDH; Step 2: Prepare an intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent; Step 2.1, prepare the reaction solution; Step 2.2: Add Phy-LDH to the reaction solution; Step 2.3: Prepare the intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent.
[0009] The invention is further characterized by: Step 1.1 specifically involves preparing a metal salt solution using magnesium nitrate (Mg(NO3)2·6H2O) and aluminum nitrate (Al(NO3)3·9H2O) as the metal salt sources. + / Al³ + The molar ratio is (1.5-3):1.
[0010] Step 1.2 specifically involves preparing a 0.5-1.5 mol / L sodium phytate aqueous solution and adding a metal salt solution to the sodium phytate aqueous solution under stirring conditions to obtain a mixed solution. Maintain the temperature at 78-84℃ while stirring.
[0011] Step 1.3 specifically involves: adjusting and maintaining the pH of the mixed solution at 9.8-10.2 using NaOH solution, setting the reaction temperature at 78-84℃, and allowing the reaction time to be 0.8-1.2 hours. After the reaction was completed, crystallization was continued for 11-13 hours, followed by centrifugation at 6000-8000 rpm, washing with deionized water 3-5 times, and drying to constant weight to obtain Phy-LDH.
[0012] Step 2.1 specifically involves mixing castor oil with TMP, adding NaOH catalyst, and obtaining a reaction solution.
[0013] The molar ratio of castor oil to trimethyl phosphate (TMP) is 1:(2.5-3.5), and the mass of NaOH catalyst is 0.3%-0.7% of the mass of castor oil.
[0014] Step 2.2 is as follows: Nitrogen gas is introduced into the container holding the reaction solution for 5 minutes to establish an oxygen-free environment. Phy-LDH is added during the heating stage or 0-1 hours after the start of the reaction. The temperature is raised to 118-122℃ under nitrogen protection and the reaction is carried out for 5.5-6.5 hours. The mass of Phy-LDH accounts for 6%-12% of the mass of the reaction solution. It is added in batches, in 2-4 batches, with the same amount added in each batch, and the amount added in each batch is 1.5%-3% of the mass of the reaction solution.
[0015] Step 2.3 specifically involves: after the reaction is completed, using rotary evaporation at 60-80℃ to remove the alcohol byproducts generated during the reaction, and cooling to room temperature to obtain the intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate esterified modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent.
[0016] The second technical solution adopted in this invention is an intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent, which is obtained by the preparation method of the intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent.
[0017] The third technical solution adopted in this invention is the application of intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent, and the application of intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent in the preparation of leather with flame-retardant properties.
[0018] The beneficial effects of this invention are: (1) The present invention uses sodium phytate intercalated hydrotalcite to expand the interlayer spacing and weaken the interlayer electrostatic effect, reduce the tendency of lamellar aggregation, and improve the dispersion stability of LDH in castor oil; at the same time, the castor oil is modified by phosphoric acid esterification, and phosphorus-containing groups are introduced into its molecules, thereby improving its compatibility with hydrotalcite, so that the phosphoric acid esterified castor oil and sodium phytate intercalated hydrotalcite can be uniformly combined to form a structurally stable composite system.
[0019] (2) The intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent of the present invention has both softening and flame-retardant functions. Phosphate-modified castor oil improves the affinity and binding strength with collagen fibers, giving leather good softness and migration resistance; sodium phytate intercalated hydrotalcite works synergistically with organophosphorus components to improve the thermal stability and char-forming ability of the material, reduce the risk of combustion, and the system is green, low in toxicity and highly integrated in function. Detailed Implementation
[0020] The following detailed description is provided in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0021] The preparation method of the intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent is carried out according to the following steps: Step 1: Prepare Phy-LDH.
[0022] Step 1.1, Prepare the metal salt solution Weigh out Mg(NO3)2·6H2O and Al(NO3)3·9H2O, and prepare a metal salt solution using Mg(NO3)2·6H2O and Al(NO3)3·9H2O as metal salt sources. + / Al³ + The molar ratio is (1.5-3):1.
[0023] Step 1.2: Prepare an aqueous solution of sodium phytate and mix it with a metal salt solution to obtain a mixed solution.
[0024] Prepare a 0.5-1.5 mol / L sodium phytate aqueous solution, and add a metal salt solution to the sodium phytate aqueous solution under stirring to obtain a mixed solution.
[0025] Maintain the temperature at 78-84℃ while stirring.
[0026] Step 1.3, prepare Phy-LDH.
[0027] The pH of the mixed solution was adjusted and maintained at 9.8-10.2 using NaOH solution, so that metal ions could be co-precipitated in the presence of phytate to form intercalated hydrotalcite precursors. The reaction temperature was 78-84℃ and the reaction time was 0.8-1.2h.
[0028] After the reaction was completed, crystallization was continued for 11-13 hours, followed by centrifugation at 6000-8000 rpm, washing with deionized water 3-5 times, and drying to constant weight to obtain Phy-LDH, which is intercalated hydrotalcite obtained by regulating the interlayer structure through sodium phytate intercalation.
[0029] Step 2: Prepare intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent.

Phy-LDH is added during the heating phase or 0-1 hours after the start of the reaction. The temperature is raised to 118-122℃ under nitrogen protection and the reaction is carried out for 5.5-6.5 hours. This allows Phy-LDH to disperse in the reaction solution and undergo in-situ complexation with the phosphoric acid esterified modified castor oil (PMCO) generated in situ.
[0035] Phy-LDH should be added in batches of 6%-12% of the reaction solution mass, in 2-4 batches, with each batch containing the same amount of 1.5%-3% of the reaction solution mass.
[0036] Step 2.3: Prepare the intercalated hydrotalcite / phosphate-modified castor oil composite fatliquoring agent.

Phy-LDH was added during the heating phase, and the mixture was heated to 120°C and reacted for 6 hours under nitrogen protection.
