Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of coating preparation technology, and particularly relates to a water-based coating with a marble effect and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Water-based stone-like coatings, due to their advantages such as environmental friendliness, lightweight, and convenient application, are gradually becoming the mainstream choice to replace dry-hanging decoration with natural stone. Existing water-based multicolor coatings are mainly divided into two categories: oil-in-water and water-in-water. Although water-in-water coatings have solved the problem of organic solvent pollution, the following technical bottlenecks still exist: (1) The texture simulation is insufficient, making it difficult to present the silky and transparent feel of natural marble veins. The color particle boundaries are hard and lack a sense of layering. Existing technologies mostly use color paste to adjust the color and then simply mix and granulate. The resulting texture has a discrete particle feel, rather than the continuous and gradual vein direction of natural marble.
[0003] (2) The drying and film-forming speed is slow, and the recoating interval is as long as 24 hours, resulting in low construction efficiency. The main reason is that water-based coatings rely on the evaporation of water to form a film, and the compatibility problem between the protective adhesive system and the emulsion often leads to post-thickening, which further prolongs the drying time.
[0004] (3) The protective colloid system has poor compatibility with the emulsion, is prone to post-thickening, and has poor storage stability. Traditional lithium magnesium silicate protective colloid will undergo a slow flocculation reaction with the emulsion during storage, resulting in increased viscosity or even gelation.
[0005] (4) To obtain a three-dimensional texture, multiple sprayings or manual painting are required, which is a complex process with poor reproducibility. Existing technologies often require first spraying a base color and then using techniques such as dot spraying and texturing to create the texture, which requires high skills from the construction personnel.
[0006] To address the above problems, this invention provides a water-based coating with marble effect that combines high-simulation texture, rapid drying, and excellent storage stability, as well as its preparation method. Summary of the Invention

[0065] Vein continuity: Five fields of view were randomly selected from the sprayed sample using a stereomicroscope (Olympus SZ61, 50x magnification), and the images were imported into Image-Pro Plus image analysis software. After binarization, the proportion of the total pixel area of continuous veins (linear textures with a length greater than 2mm) to the total pixel area of all veins was calculated, and the average value of the five fields of view was taken as the vein continuity.
[0066] Transmittance: Referencing GB / T 2410-2008 "Determination of Transmittance and Haze of Transparent Plastics," this test characterizes the silky transparency of the coating's vein-like areas. The specific test method involves uniformly spraying the coating onto a 1mm thick quartz glass slide, controlling the dry film thickness to 50±5μm, and drying for 7 days. Areas with a low-density microbubble gel content ≥90% (confirmed using image analysis software) are selected for sampling and testing. This area is primarily composed of mesoporous silicon-titanium bifunctional composite particles with extremely low titanium dioxide content, reflecting the intrinsic transmittance of the vein-like texture. The transmittance is measured using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer (Shimadzu UV-2600) at a wavelength of 550nm. It should be noted that the transmittance test of this invention is carried out in accordance with GB / T 2410-2008 "Determination of transmittance and haze of transparent plastics". This is because the vein area in the coating (mainly low-density microbubble gel) has transparent or semi-transparent characteristics. This method can objectively characterize its silky transparency. The overall coating still maintains a macroscopically opaque stone-like appearance due to the light-blocking effect of titanium dioxide in the high-density base paint.
[0067] Drying time: Test the surface drying time (finger touch method) and the actual drying time (filter paper method) according to GB / T 1728-2020 "Determination of Drying Time of Paint Film".
[0068] Storage stability: The coating was sealed and placed in a 50°C constant temperature chamber for 30 days. The initial viscosity and the viscosity after heat storage were tested using a Brookfield rotational viscometer (4# rotor, 6 rpm), and the viscosity change rate was calculated.
[0069] Abrasion resistance: According to GB / T 1768-2006 "Determination of abrasion resistance of paints and varnishes - Rotary rubber grinding wheel method", the abrasion loss (mg) was tested using a Taber abrasion tester (CS-10 grinding wheel, 1000 g load, 1000 rpm).
[0070] Adhesion: The cross-cut test was conducted in accordance with GB / T 9286-1998 "Cross-cut test for paint and varnish film", and the rating was 0-5.
[0071] Water resistance: In accordance with the HG / T 4847-2025 standard, the sample was immersed in deionized water for 96 hours, and the blistering and peeling of the paint film were observed.
[0072] VOC content: Tested according to GB / T 23986-2009 "Determination of volatile organic compound (VOC) content in paints and varnishes".
[0073] The performance test results are shown in Tables 1 and 2 below: Table 1 Performance test results of Examples 1-5 As shown in Table 1, the texture simulation score of Examples 1-5 is ≥9.0, the vein continuity is ≥90%, and the light transmittance is ≥86%, indicating that the present invention can achieve excellent marble texture effects. Among them, Examples 1 (intermediate ratio) and Examples 5 (upper-middle ratio) performed the best, while Example 2 (lower limit) was slightly lower but still at an excellent level, indicating that the technical solution has broad applicability.
[0074] Table 2 Performance test results of Comparative Examples 1-7 As shown in Table 2, the texture simulation degree, vein continuity, and transmittance of Comparative Example 1 (without CNC) and Comparative Example 2 (without mesoporous silicon-titanium bifunctional composite particles) all decreased significantly, proving that the rheological locking effect of CNC and the optical regulation effect of mesoporous silicon-titanium bifunctional composite particles are indispensable. The texture simulation degree of Comparative Example 3 (without silane-modified magnesium lithium silicate) also decreased, indicating that this component plays an important role in gel strength and texture maintenance. The texture simulation degree of Comparative Example 7 (without electrospinning) dropped to 7.2 points, proving the key role of electrospinning process in texture order.
[0075] Examples 1-5 showed surface drying times ≤20 min and actual drying times ≤4 h, with the drying time slightly decreasing as the amount of crosslinking component increased (Example 3 showed the best results). Comparative Examples 4 (without POSS-hydrazide hybrid lithium magnesium silicate) and 5 (without ADH) showed significantly longer actual drying times, demonstrating that the ketone-hydrazide crosslinking system is the core of rapid drying. Comparative Example 6 (without pH neutralizer) showed an actual drying time extended to 8 h, demonstrating the balancing effect of pH control on drying speed.
[0076] Examples 1-5 show viscosity change rates ≤15%, and the rate decreases with increasing crosslinking components, indicating a good synergistic effect between the POSS-hydrazide hybrid lithium magnesium silicate, ADH, and pH neutralizer in the crosslinking-stabilizing system. Comparative Examples 4-6 show viscosity change rates ≥28%, proving that all three components are indispensable.
[0077] Examples 1-5 showed abrasion loss ≤ 48 mg, adhesion grade 0, and no abnormalities in water resistance; Comparative Examples 4-5 showed abrasion loss ≥ 68 mg and decreased adhesion, demonstrating the enhancing effect of POSS nano-anchors on mechanical properties.
