Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of flame retardant materials, specifically to an antimony trioxide-based flame retardant material and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of modern industry, polymer materials have been widely used in construction, transportation, electronics, aerospace and other fields due to their advantages such as light weight, ease of processing, and low cost. However, most polymer materials are flammable, releasing large amounts of heat, smoke and toxic gases when burned, seriously threatening personal safety and property security. Therefore, the development of efficient, environmentally friendly and low-toxicity flame-retardant materials has become a research hotspot and urgent need in the field of materials science.
[0003] Antimony trioxide is an important flame retardant synergist, widely used in polymer materials such as plastics, rubber, and coatings. It is also one of the most widely used inorganic flame retardants in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) materials. How to further improve the flame retardant effect of antimony trioxide has become a current research hotspot. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Purpose of the invention: To address the above-mentioned technical problems, this invention proposes an antimony trioxide-based flame retardant material and its preparation method.
[0005] The technical solution adopted is as follows: An antimony trioxide-based flame retardant material, composed of antimony trioxide particles and alkoxylated black phosphorus coated thereon.
[0006] Furthermore, the antimony trioxide particles have a porous structure.
[0007] Furthermore, the method for preparing the antimony trioxide particles is as follows: Antimony glycol and polyol phases are added to an oil phase containing a first emulsifier and white oil. After high-speed stirring, a P / O emulsion is obtained. The P / O emulsion is then added to an aqueous phase containing poloxamer and water. After high-speed stirring, the reaction is carried out by low-speed stirring. The mixture is allowed to stand, and the precipitate is collected by centrifugation, washed, and dried.
[0008] Furthermore, the polyol phase is a combination of dipropylene glycol and ethylene glycol in a mass ratio of 1-4:1-4.
[0009] Further, the first emulsifier is any one or more combinations of Span-20, Span-40, Span-60, and Span-80.
[0010] Furthermore, the pH of the aqueous phase is 3-6.
[0011] This invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned antimony trioxide-based flame retardant material, comprising: Sodium alkyl alkoxide reacts with black phosphorus nanosheets to generate alkoxylated black phosphorus; Positive charge modification on the surface of antimony trioxide particles; The two are mixed and electrostatically adsorbed for self-assembly; Heat treatment under argon protection.
[0012] Furthermore, the sodium alkyl alkoxide is any one of sodium hexanoate, sodium heptanol, sodium octanol, sodium nonanol, and sodium decanoate.
[0013] Furthermore, the surface of antimony trioxide particles was positively charged using a silane coupling agent.
[0014] Furthermore, the silane coupling agent is KH-550.
[0015] Furthermore, the heat treatment temperature is 200-400℃.
[0016] Furthermore, the antimony trioxide-based flame retardant material of the present invention is applied to polyvinyl chloride.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are: This invention provides an antimony trioxide-based flame retardant material. Through interfacial engineering assembly of porous antimony trioxide particles and alkoxylated black phosphorus, a core-shell composite flame retardant material with a synergistic flame retardant effect is constructed. First, utilizing the property that antimony glycolate is soluble in ethylene glycol but insoluble in white oil, the oil phase isolates the antimony glycolate from the weakly acidic aqueous phase, preventing rapid hydrolysis that could lead to abnormally large and agglomerated antimony trioxide particles. During the low-speed stirring reaction, due to shear force, trace amounts of water enter the polyol phase and hydrolyze with the antimony glycolate, thereby controlling the size of the generated antimony trioxide. The addition of phosphate to the aqueous phase adjusts the pH and causes the charged emulsion particles to repel each other, improving the system's stability. This results in the synthesis of antimony trioxide with a unique porous microstructure. This porous structure not only provides abundant surface hydroxyl groups for subsequent silane coupling agent modification, but its pores can also physically adsorb free radicals and volatile combustibles generated during combustion, exerting a condensed-phase flame retardant effect.
[0018] Black phosphorus nanosheets were prepared via liquid-phase exfoliation. Alkoxylation treatment introduced active side chains onto the surface of the black phosphorus nanosheets, improving their solubility and dispersibility in organic solvents and laying the foundation for subsequent electrostatic adsorption self-assembly. A PN heterojunction structure was formed at the interface between the black phosphorus nanosheets and antimony trioxide. This heterojunction stemmed from the band matching between the p-type semiconductor properties of the black phosphorus nanosheets and the n-type semiconductor properties of antimony trioxide. The built-in electric field formed at the interface effectively promoted the separation of photogenerated or thermally excited charge carriers. During the heating or combustion of polymers (such as polyvinyl chloride), this charge separation effect significantly enhanced the kinetics of the catalytic carbonization reaction, specifically by lowering the activation energy of the carbonization reaction, thereby catalyzing the dehydration and cross-linking graphitization of the polymer matrix to form a denser and more complete protective carbon layer.
[0019] Silane coupling agents modify porous antimony trioxide particles, with the amino end facing the solution surface and carrying a positive charge, while alkoxylated black phosphorus carries a negative charge. The two achieve directional self-assembly through electrostatic attraction, so that black phosphorus nanosheets are uniformly coated on the surface of antimony trioxide particles. This electrostatic adsorption assembly process ensures uniform dispersion and close contact of black phosphorus, avoiding the problems of agglomeration and phase separation caused by physical mixing.
[0020] Antimony trioxide, a classic flame retardant, reacts with hydrogen chloride produced from the decomposition of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) in the gas phase to generate antimony trichloride, which captures active free radicals in the combustion chain and interrupts the free radical chain reaction. Black phosphorus nanosheets, as a two-dimensional layered material, exert a physical barrier effect; the phosphorus-oxygen free radicals released during thermal decomposition synergistically enhance the gas-phase flame retardant efficiency with antimony trichloride. The core-shell structure design allows for close contact between black phosphorus and antimony trioxide at the nanoscale, enhancing the synergistic effect through interfacial interactions and further improving flame retardant efficiency. Heat treatment curing ensures the stability and reliability of the interfacial bonding, ultimately achieving excellent flame retardant performance and providing a new technical path for developing high-efficiency, low-smoke, and environmentally friendly flame retardant materials.

[0056] The preparation method of antimony trioxide-based flame retardant materials is as follows: Take 1g of commercially available antimony trioxide particles (Yamei Nano) and place them in 50ml of a mixed solvent consisting of deionized water and anhydrous ethanol at a volume ratio of 1:4.

[0057] Performance testing The flame-retardant materials prepared in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-5 of this invention were used as samples for corresponding performance tests.
[0058] The sample was mixed with PVC paste resin, dioctyl phthalate and calcium zinc stabilizer in a mass ratio of 0.06:1:0.45:0.03. The resulting mixture was placed in an extruder and melt-extruded at a temperature range of 140-160℃ to prepare a composite material. Then, it was placed in a micro injection molding machine and injection molded at 145℃ with a pressure of 15MPa. Finally, it was cut into test strips for performance testing.
[0059] ①Oxygen index data were collected using a JF-3 oxygen index tester. The test standard was in accordance with GB / T 2406-2009 Oxygen Index Determination Method. The sample size was 100mm×6.5mm×3mm.
[0060] ② Flame retardant performance data were collected using a cone calorimeter, with testing standards conforming to ISO 5660-1:2015. The sample size was 100mm×100mm×3mm, and the radiation intensity was selected as... .
[0061] The test results are shown in Table 1: Table 1: As shown in Table 1 above, the flame retardant material prepared by the present invention can effectively improve the flame retardant performance of PVC material.
[0062] The comparison of Examples 1-3 shows that heat treatment temperature has a significant impact on flame-retardant materials. Heat treatment at 300℃ (Example 1) yields the best flame-retardant performance, at which point the interfacial bonding strength between the black phosphorus nanosheets and antimony trioxide is highest.
[0063] A comparison of Examples 1 and 4-7 shows that the alkyl chain length in the alkoxylation reagent has an optimizing effect on the surface modification effect of black phosphorus and subsequent interfacial assembly. Sodium n-octanol (C8, Example 1) treatment exhibits the best overall performance, with its hydrophobic alkyl chain length showing the best matching degree with the chain segments of KH-550. This ensures stable dispersion of black phosphorus nanosheets in the solvent and promotes close interfacial contact with KH-550-modified antimony trioxide.
[0064] The comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 shows that sodium methoxide (C1) has a very short methyl chain segment, which leads to a poorer interface assembly effect between alkoxylated black phosphorus and KH-550 modified antimony trioxide.
[0065] The comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 shows that electrostatic adsorption self-assembly combined with heat treatment (Example 1) has an essential advantage over simple physical grinding and mixing (Comparative Example 2).
[0066] The comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 shows that the alkoxylation treatment of black phosphorus nanosheets is a necessary prerequisite for achieving effective chemical bonding with KH-550 modified antimony trioxide.
[0067] The comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 4 shows that heat treatment can promote interfacial chemical bonding and improve the thermal stability of materials, while the lack of heat treatment leads to the deterioration of the flame retardant properties of materials.
[0068] The comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 5 shows that the porous structure provides a larger specific surface area and more active sites, which enhances the interfacial interaction and synergistic flame retardant effect with black phosphorus nanosheets.
