AI Technical Summary
[0007]本发明旨在克服现有技术的不足,提供一种交联聚乙烯用环保阻燃母粒及方法,以解决现有的用于聚乙烯的阻燃母粒环保和力学性能较差的问题
[0027] This invention employs a flame-retardant system constructed from aluminum diethylphosphonate (a dual-mechanism flame retardant system for both gas and condensed phases), melamine polyphosphate (for expansion and char formation), modified magnesium hydroxide (for heat absorption, cooling, and smoke suppression), sepiolite (for char layer reinforcement and insulation), a char formation accelerator (for dense char formation), organically modified montmorillonite (for a nano-barrier layer), and zinc borate (for catalytic char formation and smoke suppression). Adding only 10% of the flame-retardant masterbatch to cross-linked polyethylene enables the material to pass the UL94V-0 flammability test, achieving a limiting oxygen index (LOI) of 29.6%–31%, significantly superior to traditional halogen-free flame-retardant systems. Due to the use of a low-addition, high-efficiency flame-retardant system, and the use of a maleic anhydride-grafted polyethylene compatibilizer to improve interfacial bonding, the flame-retardant masterbatch has minimal impact on the mechanical properties of the matrix.
Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of polymer flame retardant materials, specifically to an environmentally friendly flame retardant masterbatch for cross-linked polyethylene and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is a polymer material based on ordinary polyethylene, which transforms its linear molecular structure into a three-dimensional network structure through physical or chemical cross-linking. This significantly improves its heat resistance, deformation resistance, electrical insulation, and service life, and it has been widely used in core areas such as wires and cables, pipes, and insulating sheaths. However, XLPE is inherently flammable and has a low limiting oxygen index. During combustion, it easily produces molten drips and releases large amounts of dense smoke, posing a serious fire safety hazard and limiting its further application in high-safety-requirement scenarios.
[0003] Currently, flame retardant masterbatches used for polyethylene on the market are mainly divided into two systems, both of which have obvious technical defects:
[0004] Halogenated flame retardant systems have high flame retardant efficiency, but they produce a lot of smoke and release toxic and corrosive gases when burning, which does not meet the requirements for environmental protection and low smoke and non-toxic use, and their use has been gradually restricted by the market.
[0005] Halogen-free flame retardant systems: Phosphorus-nitrogen intumescent flame retardants have poor compatibility with non-polar polyethylene, weak interfacial bonding, and are prone to surface precipitation and migration, affecting appearance and long-term stability. Although aluminum hydroxide / magnesium hydroxide inorganic flame retardant systems are environmentally friendly, their high addition amount can significantly reduce the tensile strength, elongation at break, and other mechanical properties of the material, leading to brittleness and poor processability of the products.
[0006] Meanwhile, most existing production processes use twin-screw compounding extrusion, water drawing, air drying, pelletizing, and drying processes, resulting in low output and incomplete moisture removal. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The present invention aims to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an environmentally friendly flame retardant masterbatch and method for cross-linked polyethylene, so as to solve the problems of poor environmental protection and mechanical properties of existing flame retardant masterbatches used for polyethylene.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0013] Preferably, the organically modified montmorillonite is quaternary ammonium salt intercalated montmorillonite with an interlayer spacing ≥2.5 nm.
[0014] The application of environmentally friendly flame-retardant masterbatch for cross-linked polyethylene is to add 10% of the flame-retardant masterbatch to cross-linked polyethylene materials for wires and cables, so that the flame retardant rating of the cross-linked polyethylene material reaches UL94V-0 level.
[0015] A method for preparing environmentally friendly flame-retardant masterbatch for cross-linked polyethylene includes the following steps:
[0016] S1. Raw material pretreatment: The raw materials used are dried to remove moisture; the organic modified montmorillonite is pre-dried under vacuum at 80-100℃ for 4 hours.
[0017] S2, Staged High-Speed Mixing:
[0018] First stage: Add polyethylene resin, aluminum diethylphosphinate, melamine polyphosphate, modified magnesium hydroxide, sepiolite, char formation accelerator, layered nanofiller, smoke suppressant, and maleic anhydride-grafted polyethylene, and stir in a high-speed mixer at 800-1200 rpm for 5-8 minutes.
[0019] Second stage: Add compound antioxidant, silicone masterbatch, and polytetrafluoroethylene micro powder, continue stirring for 2-3 minutes, and then discharge;
[0020] S3, Three-screw compounding extrusion granulation:

[0022] After the materials are mixed and extruded, they are successively ground, air-cooled and pelletized, magnetically separated, boiled and cooled, and vacuum-packed to obtain the finished product.
[0023] Preferably, the length-to-diameter ratio of the three-screw compounding extruder is 36:1 to 48:1, and the screw speed is 300 to 600 rpm.
[0024] Preferably, the grinding and air-cooling pelletizing does not use water cooling medium, and the temperature of the masterbatch after pelletizing is ≤50℃; the boiling cooling adopts a fluidized bed airflow cooling method to cool the masterbatch to room temperature before vacuum packaging.
[0025] Preferably, in the first stage of S2, 0.2 to 0.5% of the total weight of the raw materials is added as a wetting agent to promote the dispersion of the nanofiller.
[0026] Beneficial effects:
[0027] This invention employs a flame-retardant system constructed from aluminum diethylphosphonate (a dual-mechanism flame retardant system for both gas and condensed phases), melamine polyphosphate (for expansion and char formation), modified magnesium hydroxide (for heat absorption, cooling, and smoke suppression), sepiolite (for char layer reinforcement and insulation), a char formation accelerator (for dense char formation), organically modified montmorillonite (for a nano-barrier layer), and zinc borate (for catalytic char formation and smoke suppression). Adding only 10% of the flame-retardant masterbatch to cross-linked polyethylene enables the material to pass the UL94V-0 flammability test, achieving a limiting oxygen index (LOI) of 29.6%–31%, significantly superior to traditional halogen-free flame-retardant systems. Due to the use of a low-addition, high-efficiency flame-retardant system, and the use of a maleic anhydride-grafted polyethylene compatibilizer to improve interfacial bonding, the flame-retardant masterbatch has minimal impact on the mechanical properties of the matrix.
[0028] The anhydride groups of maleic anhydride-grafted polyethylene chemically bond or form strong hydrogen bonds with the active groups such as hydroxyl and amino groups on the surface of polar flame retardants such as aluminum diethylphosphinate and modified magnesium hydroxide. Simultaneously, its polyethylene backbone is highly compatible with the LLDPE matrix, thus constructing a "molecular bridge" between the flame retardant and resin interface, effectively anchoring the flame retardant and preventing its migration to the surface under heat aging or humid conditions. In all embodiments of this invention, no exudates were found on the sample surface, while the comparative sample without PE-g-MAH showed a distinct white powder layer. This excellent anti-exudation performance ensures the appearance, electrical insulation, and flame retardant stability of the wires and cables during long-term use.
[0029] This invention is a halogen-free flame retardant system that produces minimal smoke during combustion and does not generate toxic or corrosive gases, meeting environmental protection requirements. It is suitable for the wire and cable industry, where safety and environmental performance are paramount. The process employs three-screw compounding extrusion, grinding and air-cooling pelletizing, magnetic separation, fluidized bed cooling, and vacuum packaging, resulting in excellent plasticizing and compounding effects, uniform dispersion of flame retardants and additives, prevention of moisture residue, high production efficiency, and stable product quality. It also avoids the problem of difficult moisture removal found in traditional water-drawing processes.
[0030] This invention employs a three-screw compounding extrusion process instead of a traditional twin-screw extruder, significantly enhancing the shear dispersion effect of the highly filled flame-retardant system and achieving uniform distribution of the nanofiller (organically modified montmorillonite) and various additives. It uses surface-grinding and air-cooled pelletizing instead of water-jetting cooling, completely avoiding moisture contact and eliminating problems such as heat-processing bubbles and flame retardant hydrolysis caused by residual moisture inside the masterbatch in traditional processes. Subsequent boiling cooling rapidly cools the masterbatch to prevent sticking, and vacuum packaging ensures low moisture content for long-term product storage. This process route offers excellent plasticizing and compounding effects, uniform dispersion, high production efficiency, and stable batch production, making it suitable for large-scale industrial production.

[0075] Comparative Example 1:
[0076] Weigh the following components by weight: LLDPE resin: 50 parts; aluminum diethylphosphinate: 30 parts; MP melamine polyphosphate: 10 parts; modified magnesium hydroxide: 7 parts; sepiolite: 3 parts; PE-g-MAH: 5 parts; compound antioxidant: 0.6 parts; silicone masterbatch: 0.5 parts; PTFE micro powder: 0.3 parts.

[0078] Comparative analysis: Although the V-0 rating can still be achieved without char-forming accelerators, nanofillers, and smoke suppressants, the limiting oxygen index drops to below 30%, smoke density increases significantly, char layer becomes loose and discontinuous, and overall flame retardant efficiency decreases.

[0082] Comparative Example 3:
[0083] The process uses only an aluminum hydroxide / magnesium hydroxide single inorganic flame retardant system, with a total flame retardant addition of 40 parts, and the other conditions are the same as conventional processes.
[0084] The performance comparison test is shown in the table below:
[0085] Results Explanation
[0086] UL94 rating V-0 V-0 V-0 V-0 (occasional dripping) V-0 No grade LOI / % 33.2 34.1 32.8 29.8 30 24 Smoke Density Rating (SDR) 62 58 64 78 76 74 Tensile strength / MPa 23.5 24.2 22.9 22.1 22 15.5 Elongation at break / % 785 810 795 770 780 420 Surface precipitation none none none none none slight
[0087] This invention, with all additives at 10%, introduces a char-forming accelerator (PEPA / DPER), organically modified montmorillonite, and zinc borate. This increases the limiting oxygen index from 30.0% to 32.8%~34.2%, and reduces the smoke density rating from 76 to 58~64. The flame retardant efficiency, smoke suppression performance, and mechanical retention rate of this invention are significantly improved, achieving a leading level in overall performance compared to similar technologies. It is particularly suitable for the wire and cable industry, where stringent requirements for low smoke, non-toxicity, and high flame retardancy are required.
[0088] Meanwhile, this invention uses maleic anhydride-grafted polyethylene as a compatibilizer, which significantly improves the interfacial compatibility between the polar flame retardant and the non-polar cross-linked polyethylene, effectively inhibiting the migration and precipitation of the flame retardant. The verification data are as follows:
[0089] Experimental design: With a fixed flame retardant masterbatch formulation (50 parts LLDPE, 30 parts aluminum diethylphosphinate, 10 parts MPP, 7 parts modified magnesium hydroxide, 3 parts sepiolite, and other additives unchanged), the amount of PE-g-MAH added was varied, and surface precipitation, tensile strength and elongation at break were tested.
[0090] 0 Severe precipitation (white powder layer) 18.5 610 Obvious interfacial gaps, flame retardant agglomeration 2 Slight precipitation (visible spots) 20.2 690 There are still some gaps in the interface. 4 Very slight precipitation (almost invisible) 21.5 750 The interface is well-bonded and evenly distributed. 5 No precipitation 22.3 785 The interface is dense with no visible voids. 6 No precipitation 22.1 780 The interface is dense and the compatibilizer is saturated.
[0091] This experiment shows that when the amount of PE-g-MAH added is ≥5 parts, the migration and precipitation of flame retardants can be completely inhibited. Maleic anhydride-grafted polyethylene forms chemical bonds or strong hydrogen bonds with polar groups (such as hydroxyl and amino groups) on the surface of the flame retardant through the anhydride groups. At the same time, the polyethylene backbone is compatible with the LLDPE matrix, acting as a "molecular bridge". Without compatibilizer, the mechanical properties decrease significantly (tensile strength decreases by about 17%, and elongation at break decreases by about 22%).
[0092] To verify the synergistic effect of sepiolite and char formation accelerator in this invention, the following design was implemented:
[0093] none 28.5 Occasionally dripping Loose and cracked talcum powder 28.9 No dripping Relatively dense but still contains tiny pores Calcium carbonate 28.2 There is dripping Loose, carbon layer peeling off sepiolite 30.2 No dripping Dense and continuous, without cracks
[0094] The fibrous structure and high specific surface area of sepiolite can interweave into a network during combustion, significantly enhancing the strength and insulation of the char layer, which is superior to conventional mineral fillers.
[0095] In summary, this invention achieves a breakthrough in comprehensive performance with low addition amount, including high flame retardancy, low smoke, high mechanical strength retention, and no exudation, providing a highly competitive solution for cross-linked polyethylene in the field of wires and cables with stringent safety and environmental protection requirements, such as high-rise buildings, rail transportation, and ships.
[0096] It should be understood that numerous specific implementation decisions can be made during the development of any practical implementation, such as in any engineering or design project. Such development efforts may be complex and time-consuming, but for those skilled in the art who benefit from this disclosure, the development effort will be a routine work of design, manufacturing, and production without requiring much experimentation.
[0097] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
