Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of polymer material preparation technology, and particularly relates to a glass fiber reinforced ABS material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] ABS resin, a commonly used thermoplastic engineering plastic, boasts advantages such as excellent processability, high surface gloss, and good impact resistance, leading to its widespread application across various industries. However, in engineering structural components and high-temperature environments, ordinary ABS resin faces significant technical bottlenecks, primarily in three aspects: First, insufficient heat resistance, with a heat distortion temperature typically only between 80℃ and 90℃. Exceeding this temperature easily causes softening and deformation, limiting its application in high-temperature environments such as automotive engine compartments. Second, insufficient strength and rigidity, making it prone to bending and breakage when used as load-bearing structural components, failing to meet the demands of heavy-duty scenarios. Third, poor dimensional stability, with a large molding shrinkage rate significantly affected by temperature changes, making it unsuitable for the production of high-precision parts.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, the industry widely employs glass fiber reinforcement technology to modify ABS resin. By melt-blending ABS resin with glass fiber to prepare fiber-reinforced ABS composites, the heat resistance, rigidity, and dimensional stability of the material can be significantly improved. After modification, the material's heat distortion temperature can be increased to over 100℃-150℃, the flexural modulus can reach 2000MPa-6000MPa, and the coefficient of linear expansion and molding shrinkage can be reduced to 1 / 2-1 / 4 of that of pure ABS, giving it the potential to replace some metals and expensive engineering plastics (such as nylon).

[0004] Currently, ABS fiber-reinforced modification typically employs a twin-screw extruder melt blending process. This involves mixing ABS resin with surface-treated glass fibers (10%-40%) and various additives, then melting, extruding, and pelletizing at high temperatures to produce masterbatch. Strict control of glass fiber length (0.3-1mm) and dispersion uniformity is crucial during production to ensure product performance. Existing technologies primarily utilize two processes: short glass fiber reinforcement and long glass fiber reinforcement. Short glass fiber reinforcement (accounting for over 90% of the market) is simple to process and has good flowability, making it suitable for injection molding complex shapes, but its mechanical properties, especially impact resistance, are limited. Long glass fiber reinforcement offers superior mechanical properties and strong impact resistance, but it requires advanced equipment and has high production costs, hindering large-scale adoption.

[0005] Although ABS fiber reinforcement technology has been widely used, it still faces three major challenges that severely restrict its further application: First, the toughness decreases significantly. As the glass fiber content increases, the notched impact strength of the material decreases significantly, making the material brittle and its impact resistance much worse than ordinary ABS, failing to meet the needs of scenarios requiring both rigidity and impact resistance. Second, the surface quality is poor. The high hardness of glass fiber not only exacerbates the wear of injection molds but also easily appears on the product surface, leading to surface roughness, floating fibers, pitting, and other defects, with a significant decrease in gloss (usually between 20° and 80°), making it unsuitable for products requiring aesthetically pleasing surfaces. Third, the processing is more difficult. The material's fluidity changes after fiber reinforcement and causes severe wear on equipment, requiring wear-resistant screws, nozzles, and precision temperature control systems, increasing production input and process control difficulty.

[0006] In existing technologies, toughening agents and amino-modified silicone oils are commonly added to address the aforementioned problems. However, these methods have significant limitations: while simply adding toughening agents can improve toughness, it sacrifices the material's rigidity and heat resistance; adding amino-modified silicone oil or wollastonite mineral fibers can alleviate fiber floating issues, but it leads to a decrease in the material's mechanical properties and fails to fundamentally solve the core problems of uneven glass fiber dispersion and weak interfacial bonding. Furthermore, traditional long glass fiber reinforcement processes employ melt impregnation, which suffers from insufficient glass fiber wetting, cumbersome procedures, and high energy consumption, while short glass fiber reinforcement processes struggle to balance rigidity and toughness. Therefore, developing an ABS fiber-reinforced composite material and its preparation method that can simultaneously address the issues of decreased toughness, fiber floating defects, and processing difficulties has become an urgent need in the industry and is the core research and development objective of this invention. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a glass fiber reinforced ABS material and its preparation method. This invention breaks through the limitations of single glass fiber reinforcement or single toughening in the prior art. It adopts an integrated technical solution of composite glass fiber combination + composite modification + step feeding, which solves the technical problems of insufficient toughness, serious fiber floating and high processing difficulty of existing fiber-reinforced ABS.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A glass fiber reinforced ABS material and its preparation method are disclosed. The components, by weight percentage, include: 50%-75% ABS resin, 15%-35% composite glass fiber, 3%-8% composite toughening agent, 0.2%-0.6% antioxidant, 0.3%-1.2% high-efficiency lubricant, 1%-3% interface compatibilizer, and 0.5%-1.5% surface modifying agent.

[0014] This invention also provides a method for preparing glass fiber reinforced ABS composite material, comprising the following steps: ① Surface modification treatment of composite glass fiber: Short glass fiber and long glass fiber are mixed evenly in a preset ratio, heat-treated at high temperature and cooled, then immersed in a compound modifier aqueous solution, and dried to obtain surface modified composite glass fiber. ② Raw material pretreatment: Dry the ABS resin, composite toughening agent, antioxidant, high-efficiency lubricant, interface compatibilizer, and surface modifier separately to remove moisture. The drying temperature is 80-90℃ and the time is 2-4 hours. The moisture content of the ABS resin after drying is ≤0.05%. ③ Melt blending and step feeding: The pretreated ABS resin and various additives are added to the main feed port of the twin-screw extruder, and after melting, the surface-modified composite glass fiber is added from the side feed port; ④ Impregnation, shearing, and extrusion pelletizing: After being impregnated by screw shearing, the material is extruded, cooled, and pelletized to obtain masterbatch with a particle size of 2-4 mm; ⑤ Post-processing: Vacuum dry the masterbatch to obtain the finished product. The vacuum drying temperature is 70-90℃ and the time is 3-5 hours.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in step ①, the high-temperature heat treatment temperature is 400-500℃ and the time is 4-6 hours; the impregnation time is 15-30 minutes, the drying temperature is 70-90℃, and the moisture content of the glass fiber after drying is ≤0.1%; the pH value of the compound modifier aqueous solution is 4-5.

[0017] In summary, the beneficial technical effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. This invention uses a combination of short-cut glass fiber and long glass fiber, combined with the synergistic effect of composite toughening agent and interface compatibilizer, to improve the cantilever beam notched impact strength of the material by 30%-50% while ensuring high rigidity and high heat resistance. This solves the core defects of existing fiber-reinforced ABS, such as decreased toughness and easy embrittlement, and achieves synergistic optimization of rigidity and toughness.

[0018] 2. By modifying the composite glass fiber with a silane coupling agent and a polysiloxane-polyether block copolymer, and with the synergistic effect of surface modification additives and high-efficiency lubricants, the interfacial bonding force between the glass fiber and ABS resin is fundamentally improved, inhibiting glass fiber agglomeration and floating fiber phenomena. The product surface is smooth and free of pits, and the gloss is improved to 85°-95°, reaching the surface level of ordinary ABS. At the same time, it reduces the wear of glass fiber on injection molds and lowers mold maintenance costs.

[0019] 3.

At the same time, the material processing fluidity is improved through formula optimization. There is no need to equip it with special wear-resistant screws and nozzles; ordinary twin-screw extruders can achieve large-scale production. Compared with the traditional long glass fiber reinforcement process, this invention simplifies the process, reduces energy consumption by more than 30%, increases the glass fiber length retention rate to more than 90%, and reduces production costs by 15%-20%, balancing high performance and economy.
