AI Technical Summary
The low melt strength of polypropylene limits its use in high-temperature vacuum forming processes, leading to material rupture and loss of surface details in decorative films.
A polypropylene membrane composition is formulated with specific ratios of polypropylene, polyolefin elastomer, polyethylene, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, and cross-linking agent, followed by radiation modification to enhance molecular chain cross-linking and increase melt strength.
The modified polypropylene membrane exhibits improved melt strength, preventing rupture during high-temperature vacuum forming and maintaining surface details, with a reduced vacuum forming temperature.
Description
FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of decorative accessories, specifically to a polypropylene membrane and a polypropylene composite membrane.BACKGROUND
[0002] In the existing decorative materials market, as consumers' awareness of environmental protection increases, the requirements for materials are becoming stricter. Since polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resin contains elemental chlorine, a harmful substance (Dioxin) released during its incineration process is a highly carcinogenic substance, which directly harms the environment and people's health. Therefore, PVC is regarded as a non-environmental protection factor. In the future, PVC will be eliminated as a material. Therefore, within the scope of thermoplastics, the industry hopes to replace PVC with another environmentally friendly thermoplastic resin. The first consideration is to replace with polypropylene (PP). Patent CN 100540296 C discloses a membrane composition comprising 20 wt% polypropylene, 20 wt% linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), 20% very low density polyethylene (VLDPE), 30% ethylene-propylene-diene (EPDM) rubber, 10 wt% of an ethylene copolymer, and 0,5 wt% crosslinking agent.
[0003] The decorative material is mainly formed by compounding the decorative film and the skeleton through secondary molding methods such as thermal bonding, coating, and vacuum forming. The skeleton can be various shapes of wood, plastic, metal, etc. However, due to the low melt strength of polypropylene, it is easy to rupture during high-temperature vacuum forming, which limits the use of PP decorative films.SUMMARY
[0004] In view of this, a technical problem to be solved in the present disclosure is providing a polypropylene membrane and a polypropylene composite membrane, and the polypropylene membrane has a low vacuum forming temperature and a high melt strength.
[0005] The present disclosure provides a polypropylene membrane as defined by claim 1 in the set of claims.
[0006] Preferably, the polypropylene membrane further comprises 1-10 parts by weight of calcium carbonate.
[0007] Preferably, the polypropylene membrane further comprises 0.1-1 parts by weight of a stabilizer; and the stabilizer is selected from hindered amine light stabilizer and / or anti-ultraviolet agent.
[0008] Preferably, the polypropylene membrane further comprises 0.2-1.8 parts by weight of an external lubricant; and the external lubricant is selected from a group consisting of metal soap lubricants and / or fatty acid salt lubricants.
[0009] Preferably, the polypropylene membrane further comprises 0.3-1.5 parts by weight of high-molecular-weight organosilicon.
[0010] The present disclosure further provides a polypropylene composite membrane, which is made by subjecting a composite membrane to radiation administration, and the composite membrane comprises following raw materials in order, a first polypropylene membrane; a first coating layer; a printing layer; a second coating layer; a second polypropylene membrane; and a polyurethane coating; the first polypropylene membrane is the polypropylene membrane as defined by claim 1 in the set of claims; the first coating layer and the second coating layer are independently selected from a chlorinated polypropylene coating or a reactive polyurethane coating.
[0011] Preferably, a glue coating is disposed on one side, to which is not contact with the first coating layer, of the first polypropylene membrane.
[0012] Preferably, a third coating layer is disposed between the second polypropylene membrane and the polyurethane coating; and the third coating layer is a chlorinated polypropylene coating or a reactive polyurethane coating.
[0013] Preferably, the second polypropylene membrane is the polypropylene membrane as defined by claim 1 in the set of claims.
[0014] The present disclosure provides a polypropylene membrane, which is formed by a method comprising the steps of mixing of the following raw materials, film formation, and radiation modification, the raw materials comprising: 20-50 parts by weight of polypropylene; 20-45 parts by weight of polyolefin elastomer; 30-60 parts by weight of polyethylene; 1-8 parts by weight of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer; 0.5-10 parts by weight of cross-linking agent; and 0-1 parts by weight of silicon dioxide. Comparing with the conventional art, the vacuum forming temperature of the polypropylene membrane is decreased by adjusting the amounts of main ingredients (polypropylene, polyolefin elastomer and polyethylene) in the present disclosure. At the same time, after the radiation modification, the molecular chains of the polymers crosslink and twist with each other, and the melt strength of the polypropylene membrane is increased, making the molecular chains hard to move during the high-temperature vacuum forming, thereby making the product obtained by vacuum forming not easy to rupture and the surface details of the products not easy to become shallow or even disappear.DETAILED DESCRIPTION
