Polyurethane-ceramic composite coating and spraying method

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims priority to the Chinese patent application filed with the China Patent Office on August 28, 2023, with application number 202311090244.9 and invention name “A polyurethane-ceramic composite coating and spraying method”, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] The present application belongs to the technical field of wind power generation and relates to a polyurethane-ceramic composite coating and a spraying method. Background Art

[0004] Wind turbines are typically installed in remote areas, operating in harsh environments. As the sole component capturing wind energy, the leading edge of the blade is subject to long-term friction from wind and the impact of sand, salt spray, and rain, making it the most susceptible to corrosion. The leading edge of the blade is particularly susceptible to corrosion, as it is relatively thin and experiences high linear speeds. Corrosion at this location is the most severe on the entire blade. Corrosion on the leading edge of a wind turbine blade affects its aerodynamic shape, resulting in reduced power generation. If leading edge corrosion is not promptly addressed, the blade will suffer more severe damage over time, posing a potential risk to the safe operation of the wind turbine. Therefore, leading edge protection is a key challenge in the development of large blades.

[0005] Currently, common anti-corrosion coatings for wind turbine surfaces include polyurethane, fluorocarbon, and polysiloxane coatings. Polyurethane, with its advantages of a long shelf life and rapid surface drying, represents the future of wind turbine coatings. However, polyurethane coatings have drawbacks such as low impact and compressive strength, poor resistance to rain erosion, and poor resistance to high and low temperatures and weathering. In harsh wind farms, blade leading edge protection materials can fail after three to five years, leading to leading edge corrosion. Therefore, developing highly protective, weather-resistant leading edge protection materials that can absorb the stress of rain impact is an urgent challenge that needs to be addressed.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0030] The present application discloses a polyurethane-ceramic composite coating, which includes three base materials: a bottom layer, an intermediate layer, and a surface layer. The bottom layer is arranged on the surface of the wind turbine blade and is a polyurethane base material; the intermediate layer is a polyurethane-ceramic composite coating, which is arranged on the bottom layer; and the surface layer is arranged on the intermediate layer and is a ceramic base material. An intermediate layer, namely a polyurethane-ceramic composite coating, is formed between the surface layer and the bottom layer, and serves as an adhesive between the bottom layer and the surface layer, which can more tightly bond the bottom layer and the surface layer. The polyurethane base material of the bottom layer includes: diisocyanate, polyether diol, a post-chain extender, a hydrophilic chain extender, a catalyst, a neutralizer, and a solvent. The hydrophilic chain extender gives the polyurethane base material a certain hydrophilicity, which plays a role in buffering and decomposing the impact of raindrops when they wash onto the surface of the wind turbine blade; the polyurethane prepared by adding the post-chain extender has high stability, uniform emulsion dispersion, and can quickly form a film, and can effectively reduce the damage of rain erosion on the wetted surface. The surface ceramic base material is composed of three components: (1) a multifunctional silane coupling agent (component A) to form a dense three-dimensional network cross-linked structure by a sol-gel reaction; (2) a multifunctional silicone resin (component B) that can participate in the sol-gel reaction of the silane coupling agent to increase the strength and toughness of the three-dimensional cross-linked structure; (3) functional fillers and additives (component C) including fillers (for reinforcement, toughening, thermal conductivity, wear resistance, and ablation resistance), leveling agents, dispersants, etc. (4) a second catalyst, namely potassium hydroxide alkali glue. Because ceramics are resistant to water, alcohol, wear, scratches, and high temperatures, they increase the strength of the wind turbine blade surface coating, protect the underlying polyurethane base material, and extend the service life of the polyurethane base material. When the polyurethane-ceramic composite coating is sprayed on the wind turbine blade, scanning electron microscopy can be used to observe that the number of bubbles on the leading edge of the blade is reduced and the hole size is significantly reduced. Due to the large specific surface area of ​​ceramics, they are very tightly bonded with polyurethane. With ceramics as the skeleton, polyurethane can completely cover the ceramic foam. The two are very tightly bonded and have good interfacial adhesion. This allows stress to be fully transmitted to the substrate along the ceramic skeleton, making the overall stress of the composite material uniform, thereby improving the rain erosion impact resistance of the leading edge of the wind turbine blade.

[0031] This application also discloses a method for preparing a polyurethane-ceramic composite coating. Because polyaspartic acid polyurea reacts rapidly with water, deionized water cannot be used as a solvent for the ceramic base material. This application uses the polar organic solvent N,N-dimethylformamide as a solvent. The addition of a second catalyst promotes the sol-gel reaction in the ceramic base material, forming a dense three-dimensional cross-linked network structure, ensuring the stability of the composite coating. The ceramic, due to its unique network structure and large specific surface area, bonds tightly with the polyurethane. Furthermore, due to its light weight and excellent mechanical properties, it is an ideal material for enhancing the strength and other mechanical properties of polyurethane composites. This spray coating method is flexible and simple to operate, and is suitable for large-scale production. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
