Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of polymer materials technology, and in particular to a siloxane polymer and its preparation method, as well as its application in the preparation of wide-temperature-range, media-resistant fluorosilicone-fluororubber, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Rubber materials are indispensable basic materials in modern industry, and the rubber products industry is also an important foundational industry for national economic and social development, an integral part of the modern industrial system. Rubber products are not limited to low-requirement equipment operating within a narrow temperature range. In application, rubber materials need to possess high mechanical properties and a wide operating temperature range, capable of withstanding both high and low temperatures without affecting usability. Fluororubber is a synthetic polymer elastomer containing fluorine atoms on the carbon atoms of its main chain or side chains. Its unique chemical structure and high bond energy of the CF bond (485 kJ / mol) contribute to its performance. -1 Fluororubber possesses excellent heat resistance, chemical resistance, and oil resistance. Due to its superior high-temperature resistance, it can be used for extended periods at temperatures up to 250°C or even higher, and for short periods at 300°C. This outstanding high-temperature performance makes it an ideal material for high-temperature environments such as aerospace and automotive manufacturing. Furthermore, fluororubber exhibits excellent oil resistance and chemical resistance, enabling it to operate stably for extended periods in various media such as lubricating oils, hydraulic oils, fuels, concentrated acids, and concentrated oxidants, demonstrating superior stability compared to other synthetic rubbers. However, the relatively rigid molecular chains of fluororubber result in a higher low-temperature brittleness temperature and poor low-temperature performance. In contrast, fluorosilicone rubber possesses unique properties such as high and low temperature resistance, oil resistance, weather resistance, and chemical resistance. Summary of the Invention

All technologies implemented based on the above content of the present invention are covered within the scope of protection intended by the present invention.
[0059] Unless otherwise stated, the raw materials and reagents used in the following examples are commercially available products or can be prepared by known methods.
[0060] KH-902: γ-aminopropylmethyldiethoxysilane, purchased from Beijing Innocare Technology Co., Ltd.
[0061] TAIC: Triallyl isocyanurate, purchased from Beijing Innocare Technology Co., Ltd.
[0062] Double 25: Purchased from Shanghai Aladdin Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.
[0063] Example 1 Preparation of methylaminopropylcyclosiloxane The aminosilane coupling agent KH-902 (400 g, 2.09 mol), deionized water (112.86 g, 6.27 mol), and the catalyst tetramethylammonium hydroxide (5.13 g) were added to a three-necked flask equipped with a stirrer. The mixture was stirred and gradually heated to 70°C for 7 hours. After the reaction was completed, water and the byproduct ethanol were removed from the system under negative pressure. The heating system was then raised to 150°C and the reaction continued for 2 hours to decompose the catalyst tetramethylammonium hydroxide and remove low-boiling-point compounds. After cooling to room temperature, a viscous and transparent product was obtained, which is the methylaminopropyl cyclic 1 synthesized in this example, with the following structural formula: Figure 1 As shown.
[0064] The 1H NMR spectrum of the cyclic polymer 1 synthesized in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the chemical shifts at 0-0.15 ppm are attributed to characteristic peaks of H on Si-CH3, at 0.4-0.58 ppm to characteristic peaks of H on Si-CH2-, at 1.02-1.95 ppm to characteristic peaks of H on C-CH2-C and -NH2, and at 2.58-2.74 ppm to characteristic peaks of H on C-CH2-N. Meanwhile, no characteristic peaks of hydroxyl groups were detected in the 1H NMR spectrum. The 1H NMR results indicate that the methylaminopropylcyclosiloxane obtained in this embodiment possesses the following characteristics: Figure 1 The structure shown.
[0065] Example 2 Preparation of methyltrifluoropropyl-aminopropylcyclosiloxane 50 g (0.1067 mol) of methyltrifluoropropylcyclosiloxane, 2.82 g (0.00534 mol), 5.63 g (0.01067 mol), and 2.82 g (0.02134 mol) of methylaminopropylcyclosiloxane from Example 1, and 1% (by mass) of tetramethylammonium hydroxide catalyst were added to a three-necked flask equipped with a stirrer. The mixture was stirred and gradually heated to 95°C and reacted for 6 h. After the reaction was completed, the heating system was raised to 150°C under negative pressure and maintained at this temperature for at least 30 min to decompose the catalyst and low-boiling compounds in the system.

The mixture was stirred and gradually heated to 95°C for 6 hours. After the reaction was completed, the promoter was removed from the system under negative pressure. The system was then heated to 150°C and maintained at this temperature for at least 30 minutes to decompose the catalyst and low-boiling compounds. The system was cooled to room temperature to obtain a transparent and viscous product, which is the vinyl-terminated polymethyltrifluoropropyl-aminopropylsiloxane polymer synthesized in this example. Its structural formula is as follows: Figure 3 As shown.
[0067] The 1H NMR spectrum of the vinyl-terminated polymethyltrifluoropropyl-aminopropylsiloxane polymer synthesized in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the chemical shifts at 0.05-0.25 ppm are attributed to the characteristic peaks of H on Si-CH3, at 0.48-0.57 ppm to the characteristic peaks of H on Si-CH2- in aminopropyl, at 0.68-0.83 ppm to the characteristic peaks of H on Si-CH2- in trifluoropropyl, at 1.37-1.78 ppm to the characteristic peaks of H on C-CH2-C and -NH2, at 1.93-2.18 ppm to the characteristic peaks of H on C-CH2-C in trifluoropropyl, at 2.61-2.72 ppm to the characteristic peaks of H on C-CH2-N, and at 5.68-6.15 ppm to the characteristic peaks of H on -CH=CH2. The 1H NMR spectrum results indicate that the vinyl-terminated polymethyltrifluoropropyl-aminopropylsiloxane polymer obtained in this embodiment possesses the following characteristics: Figure 3 The structure shown.

The mixture was stirred thoroughly under reflux using a magnetic stirrer, while oxalyl chloride (approximately 5 mL) was slowly added dropwise through a constant-pressure dropping funnel. The reaction temperature was maintained at approximately 45°C. After several hours of reaction, a sample was taken to determine if the perfluoropolyether carboxylic acid had completely participated in the reaction. After the reaction was complete, the solvent and unreacted residual oxalyl chloride were removed by rotary evaporation to obtain the activated perfluoropolyether acyl chloride.
[0069] (2) Preparation of grafted polymers Perfluoropolyether acyl chloride, dichloromethane, and triethylamine were added to a two-necked flask equipped with a stirrer and stirred until homogeneous under ice bath conditions. Simultaneously, the terminal vinyl polymethyltrifluoropropyl-aminopropylsiloxane prepared in Example 3 was slowly added dropwise through a constant-pressure dropping funnel, maintaining the reaction temperature at 0°C. The molar ratio of the acyl chloride in the perfluoropolyether acyl chloride to the amino group in the terminal vinyl polymethyltrifluoropropyl-aminopropylsiloxane was 1:1, and the volume ratio of perfluoropolyether acyl chloride to terminal vinyl polymethyltrifluoropropyl-aminopropylsiloxane:dichloromethane:triethylamine was 5:10:1. After the addition was complete, the ice bath was removed, and the reaction was continued to be stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. After the reaction was completed, the lower precipitate was separated using a separatory funnel, and the solvent in the system was removed by rotary evaporation to obtain the grafted polymer, which is the terminal vinyl polymethyltrifluoropropyl-aminopropylsiloxane polymer grafted onto the perfluoropolyether polymer, and used as a compatibilizer.
