Description

Polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion, preparation method, use and slurry thereof, polyurethane glove preparation method and polyurethane glove

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202410166280.7 filed on February 5, 2024, and the contents of the above-mentioned Chinese patent application disclosure are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety as a part of this application. Technical Field

[0002] Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion, a preparation method and use of the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion, a slurry containing the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion, and a polyurethane glove and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0003] Water-based polyurethane gloves, with their non-toxic, odorless, and simple production process, are a hot topic in current disposable glove research. Because the preparation methods for water-based polyurethane differ from those for nitrile and latex, the manufacturing process for water-based polyurethane gloves is significantly different, particularly with regard to the stability of the polyurethane aqueous dispersion used in the glove manufacturing process.

[0004] The flocculation method for producing water-based polyurethane gloves typically involves dipping a glove former in a coagulant solution and then dipping it in a rubber compound containing an aqueous polyurethane dispersion. The coagulant solution used in the flocculation method contains high-valent electrolyte salts, such as calcium, magnesium, and aluminum ions. During use, the metal ions inevitably migrate into the rubber compound, causing the compound to lose stability and, in severe cases, become jelly-like and unusable. Therefore, improving the rubber compound's operating life (service life) is crucial to the scalable and continuous production of polyurethane gloves.

[0005] Therefore, there is still a need in the art to provide a method that can effectively reduce the migration of metal ions from a coagulant solution into a rubber compound containing an aqueous polyurethane dispersion used to prepare gloves, thereby extending the life of the rubber compound and enabling large-scale continuous production of gloves, while also providing the gloves with excellent mechanical properties.

[0131] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, based on the total weight of the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion, the content of polyurethane-polyurea in the aqueous dispersion is 35 wt % or more, for example, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90 wt %, or a range limited by any two thereof.

[0132] The particle size of the polyurethane-polyurea dispersed in the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion is not particularly limited, for example, it can be: less than 2 μm, for example, 10 nm, 20 nm, 40 nm, 60 nm, 80 nm, 100 nm, 120 nm, 140 nm, 160 nm, 180 nm, 200 nm, 220 nm, 240 nm, 260 nm, 280 nm, 300 nm, 400 nm, 500 nm, 600 nm, 700 nm, 800 nm, 900 nm, 1000 nm, 1200 nm, 1400 nm, 1600 nm, 1800 nm, 2000 nm,

[0133] The particle size can be measured by methods well known to those skilled in the art. For example, the particle size can be measured by a laser particle size analyzer (such as commercially available from Malvern).

[0134] In the context of the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified, the terms "particle diameter", "particle size", "particle size" and "particle size" are used interchangeably.

[0135] In the context of this disclosure, unless otherwise specified, the term particle size refers to the volume average particle size D v 50, that is, in the volume cumulative distribution curve, 50% of the volume of the particles have a particle size higher than this particle size value, and 50% of the volume of the particles have a particle size lower than this particle size value.

[0136] The applicant has discovered that when the polyurethane-polyurea polymer in the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion contains terminal polycarboxyl groups and / or carboxylate structures, the terminal polycarboxyl groups and / or carboxylate structures can effectively reduce the concentration of metal ions such as calcium ions from the coagulant solution that accumulate in the rubber compound containing the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion used to prepare gloves, thereby effectively reducing the destructive effects of calcium ions and other metal ions on the rubber compound, extending the service life of the rubber compound, and simultaneously improving the mechanical properties of the produced gloves, such as having improved elongation and excellent tensile strength.

[0137] The polyurethane-polyurea copolymer also forms an aspect of the present disclosure. All the above descriptions of the polyurethane-polyurea copolymer in the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion are applicable to the polyurethane-polyurea copolymer. No further description will be given here.

[0138] Preparation method of polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion

[0139] In a second aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for preparing the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion of the first aspect of the present disclosure, the preparation method comprising preparing the polyurethane-polyurea by:

[0140] A polyurethane prepolymer containing terminal isocyanate groups, preferably at least two terminal isocyanate groups, is reacted with a polyamine containing at least two amine groups selected from primary and / or secondary amine groups and an isocyanate-reactive compound containing a single amine group selected from primary or secondary amine groups or a hydroxyl group and containing multiple carboxyl groups.

[0141] The amine groups contained in the polyamine containing at least two amine groups selected from primary and / or secondary amine groups may all be primary amine groups, or all be secondary amine groups, or at least one of them may be a primary amine group and at least one may be a secondary amine group.

[0142] In a preferred embodiment, the preparation method comprises the following steps:

[0143] - reacting component a, component b, component c, and optionally component d in a first inert solvent to obtain a prepolymer containing terminal isocyanate groups, preferably at least two terminal isocyanate groups;

[0144] - optionally diluting with a second inert solvent;

[0145] - Add component e to neutralize, then add water to disperse evenly to obtain a dispersion containing an inert solvent;

[0146] - Add components f and g to the dispersion containing the inert solvent and continue the reaction;

[0147] - removing the inert solvent to obtain a polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion free of inert solvent;

[0148] - optionally, converting the terminal carboxyl groups in the polyurethane-polyurea into carboxylate groups,

[0149] The second inert solvent is the same as or different from the first inert solvent.

[0150] The above descriptions on components ag in the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion of the first aspect of the present disclosure are all applicable here.

[0151] In this disclosure, "inert solvent" refers to a solvent that does not react with the components used to prepare the polyurethane-polyurea.

[0152] The first inert solvent and the second inert solvent are not particularly limited. The first inert solvent and the second inert solvent may be the same or different. For example, the first inert solvent and the second inert solvent may each independently be an ester solvent or a ketone solvent. Non-limiting examples of the ester solvent include esters formed by C1-C20 monocarboxylic acids and C1-C20 monohydric alcohols, such as ethyl acetate, methyl propionate, ethyl propionate, etc. Non-limiting examples of the ketone solvent include acetone, butanone (methyl ethyl ketone), pentanone, cyclopentanone, hexanone, cyclohexanone, etc.

[0153] The method of removing the solvent may be any method known to those skilled in the art. As a non-limiting example, the solvent may be removed by distillation under normal or reduced pressure.

[0154] In the present disclosure, the terminal carboxyl groups in the polyurethane-polyurea can be converted into carboxylate groups by using a basic compound. Preferably, the basic compound is an alkali metal compound.

[0155] As non-limiting examples of alkali metal compounds that can be used in the present disclosure, there can be mentioned alkali metal hydroxides, alkali metal carbonates, alkali metal carboxylates, alkali metal nitrates, alkali metal sulfates, alkali metal halides, alkali metal pseudohalides, etc. In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, the alkali metal compound is an alkali metal hydroxide and / or an alkali metal carbonate. In a more preferred embodiment, the alkali metal compound is sodium hydroxide and / or sodium carbonate.

[0156] The alkali metal compound can be added directly to the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion without an inert solvent in solid form. Alternatively, the alkali metal compound can be added to the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion without an inert solvent in solution form.

[0157] The applicant has discovered that by reacting a polyurethane prepolymer containing terminal isocyanate groups with a polyamine and a compound reactive with isocyanate and containing a single amino group selected from a primary or secondary amino group or a hydroxyl group and multiple carboxyl groups, a polyurethane-polyurea polymer having multiple carboxyl functional groups or carboxyl salts thereof (e.g., sodium carboxylate) at the ends of its chain segments is obtained. This prevents metal ions from a coagulant solution from damaging the stability of the rubber compound containing the polyurethane-polyurea polymer used to prepare the gloves during the preparation of the gloves, while simultaneously improving the mechanical properties of the prepared gloves, such as having improved elongation and excellent tensile strength.

[0158] Uses of polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersions

[0159] In a third aspect, the present disclosure provides use of the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion of the first aspect of the present disclosure or the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion prepared by the method of the second aspect of the present disclosure for preparing a flocculation-processed aqueous polyurethane glove slurry or a polyurethane glove.

[0160] In the present disclosure, “polyurethane gloves,” “polyurethane-polyurea gloves,” “polyurethane-polyurea polymer gloves,” and “polyurethane-polyurea copolymer gloves” have the same meaning, which all refer to gloves comprising the polyurethane-polyurea copolymer described in relation to the first aspect of the present disclosure as a constituent component (e.g., a constituent layer), and are used interchangeably herein.

[0163] The additional water means water other than the water contained in the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion.

[0164] The cross-linking agent that can be used in the present disclosure is not particularly limited. In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, the cross-linking agent comprises one or more of polyfunctional aziridine, carbodiimide, amino resin, and sorbitol polyglycidyl ether.

[0165] The cross-linking agent that can be used in the present disclosure is not particularly limited. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the ion chelating agent comprises one or more of sodium gluconate, sodium tartrate, disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, and sodium diethylenetriaminepentaacetate.

[0166] In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, the weight ratio of the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion, the crosslinking agent, the ion chelating agent and the additional water is 100:0.3-1.2:0.01-0.5:100-200.

[0167] For example, based on 100 parts by weight of the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion, the content of the crosslinking agent may be 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 parts by weight, or a range limited by any two thereof.

[0169] For example, based on 100 parts by weight of the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion, the additional water content can be 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150 parts by weight, or 160 parts by weight, or 170 parts by weight, or 180 parts by weight, or 190 parts by weight, or 200 parts by weight.

[0170] Method for preparing polyurethane gloves

[0171] In a fifth aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for preparing a polyurethane glove, the method comprising the step of preparing a polyurethane layer using the slurry according to the fourth aspect of the present disclosure.

[0172] In the present disclosure, "polyurethane layer", "polyurethane-polyurea layer", "polyurethane-polyurea polymer layer" and "polyurethane-polyurea copolymer layer" have the same meaning and all refer to the layer formed by the polyurethane-polyurea (copolymer) described with respect to the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion of the first aspect of the present disclosure.

[0179] In one embodiment, the hand mold is cleaned before being immersed in the coagulant solution. The cleaning can be performed by known means in the art and is not particularly limited. For example, the cleaning can be performed by immersing the hand mold in an acid solution (e.g., nitric acid), then immersing the hand mold in an aqueous alkali solution (e.g., sodium hydroxide), then washing with water, and then drying.

[0180] The coagulant that can be used in the present disclosure is not particularly limited. For example, the coagulant solution includes a soluble salt, a release agent, and water.

[0181] The soluble salt has a divalent or higher valent cation, such as but not limited to: Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ 、Al 3+ In a preferred embodiment, the soluble salt may be chloride, nitrate, etc. In a more preferred embodiment, the soluble salt may be selected from one or more of calcium nitrate, calcium chloride, magnesium nitrate, magnesium chloride, zinc nitrate and zinc chloride.

[0183] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the weight ratio of the soluble salt, the release agent and water may be 15 to 30 (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, or a range defined by any two thereof): 8 to 20 (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, or a range defined by any two thereof): 150 to 250 (150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200, 210, 220, 230, 240, 250, 260, 270, 280, 290, 300, or a range defined by any two thereof).

[0184] In one embodiment, the handform is dried after being dipped in the coagulant solution.

[0185] In one embodiment, the process of dipping the first treated hand mold in the slurry of the fourth aspect of the present disclosure, and optionally drying it, in step S2 is performed once. Alternatively, the process can be performed multiple times (e.g., 2, 3, or more times) depending on the desired thickness of the polyurethane layer. In one embodiment, drying is performed after dipping the first treated hand mold in the slurry of the fourth aspect of the present disclosure.

[0186] In one embodiment, step S3 may not be performed.

[0187] In one embodiment, step S3 is performed, that is, cleaning the second treated hand form with water, and optionally drying it, to obtain a third treated hand form. In one embodiment, drying is performed after cleaning the second treated hand form with water.

[0188] The method may optionally include a step of immersing the handform in a slippery coating liquid (to form a slippery coating). When step S3 is not performed, the second-treated handform is directly immersed in the slippery coating liquid. When step S3 is performed, the third-treated handform is immersed in the slippery coating liquid. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the slippery coating liquid comprises one or more of a polyurethane (PU) coating, an acrylic coating, a corn starch coating, and a talc coating. In a preferred embodiment, the slippery coating liquid is a polyurethane (PU) coating.

[0189] In step S5, curling, plasticizing, and demoulding are performed to obtain polyurethane gloves.

[0190] The curling, plasticizing and demoulding can be performed by any suitable method known in the art and are not particularly limited.

[0191] The drying in steps S1 to S3 can each be independently performed by any known method and is not particularly limited.

[0192] In one embodiment, in step S2, the hand mold may be dried after being taken out of the dipping process. The drying may be performed, for example, by oven drying.

[0193] Drying can be carried out in any equipment known to those skilled in the art, such as but not limited to a forced air oven or a vacuum oven.

[0194] In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, when the dipping and drying process is repeated multiple times in S2, drying is performed after each dipping step.

[0195] The drying conditions can be selected according to the impregnation process. Preferably, the drying can be performed at a temperature of 80-150° C. For example, the drying can be performed at a temperature of 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150° C., or a range defined by any two of these.

[0196] The plasticization in step S5 can be performed by methods known to those skilled in the art, such as, but not limited to, baking.

The duration of plasticization can be adjusted according to the raw materials used. In some embodiments, the plasticization can last for 20 to 40 minutes, for example, 20, 25, 30, 35, or 40 minutes.

[0197] Polyurethane gloves

[0198] In a sixth aspect, the present disclosure provides a polyurethane glove comprising a polyurethane layer prepared using the slurry of the fourth aspect as a raw material.

[0199] Preferably, the polyurethane gloves are prepared using the method of the fifth aspect of the present disclosure.

[0200] The gloves may only comprise a polyurethane layer prepared using the slurry of the fourth aspect as a raw material. The gloves may also further comprise other layers, such as a slippery coating, as required.

[0201] By introducing a polycarboxyl group structure at the end of the polyurethane-polyurea polymer chain, the stability of the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion under high electrolyte conditions is improved. By using the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion disclosed herein, even without adding an additional metal chelating agent to the glove slurry formulation, the destructive effects of metal ions such as calcium ions from the coagulant solution on the rubber compound containing the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion used to make gloves can be effectively reduced, extending the service life of the rubber compound. Furthermore, the mechanical properties of the gloves produced can be improved, such as enhanced elongation and excellent tensile strength.

[0202] The applicants of the present disclosure have further discovered that, unexpectedly, if a chelating agent is further included in the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion, the chelating agent can produce a synergistic effect with the polyurethane-polyurea molecules, further significantly extending the service life of the rubber compound and improving the mechanical properties of the prepared gloves, such as having improved elongation and excellent tensile strength.

The mixture was stirred at 80°C until the NCO content reached 1.40 wt%. The mixture was cooled to 40°C and diluted with 330 g of acetone. 6.0 g of triethylamine was added for neutralization for 5 minutes. 900 g of deionized water was added with high-speed stirring for 10 minutes. Post-chain extension was performed by adding 3 g of ethylenediamine and 6.0 g of ethylenediaminetriacetic acid for 15 minutes. After removing the acetone by distillation, a solvent-free polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion was obtained. The resulting polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion had a solids content of 35 wt%, an average particle size of 200 nm, and a pH of 8.3. The terminal carboxyl group content of the resulting polyurethane-polyurea was 15.35 mmol / 100 g (the terminal carboxyl group content is calculated relative to the total weight of the polyurethane-polyurea, the same applies hereinafter).

The mixture was stirred at 85°C until the NCO content reached 1.43 wt%. The mixture was cooled to 40°C and diluted with 477 g of acetone. 12.0 g of triethylamine was then added for neutralization over approximately 5 minutes. Subsequently, 1210 g of deionized water was added with high-speed stirring for dispersion over approximately 10 minutes. 2 g of ethylenediamine and 13 g of ethylenediaminetriacetic acid were then added for post-chain extension over approximately 15 minutes. The acetone was then removed by distillation to yield a solvent-free polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion having a solids content of 35 wt%, an average particle size of 78 nm, and a pH of 8.7. The resulting polyurethane-polyurea had a terminal carboxyl group content of 26.82 mmol / 100 g.

[0242] Gloves were prepared using the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion prepared in the above example (weight of the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion: 1000 g):

[0292] Comparative Example 4

[0293] Example 5 was repeated except that ethylenediaminetriacetic acid was replaced by an equal molar amount of diethanolamine.

[0294] Glove performance testing:

[0295] The palm area of ​​the prepared polyurethane gloves was cut according to ASTM D412, and the tensile strength and elongation of the sliced ​​samples were tested. At the same time, the calcium ion content in the prepared latex was tested when the gloves were continuously dipped for 200 times. The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0296] Table 1. Performance test results

[0297] As can be seen from Table 1 above, the presence of terminal polycarboxyl structures in the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion and the introduction of metal ion chelators in the glove formula can effectively reduce the enrichment of calcium ions in the rubber compound, improve the stability of the latex during continuous operation of the production line, and at the same time enhance the strength of the gloves.

[0298] In addition, by comparing Examples 4-5 and Comparative Example 3 with Comparative Example 4, it can be found that:

[0299] - In terms of composition, the difference between Example 4 and Comparative Example 4 is equivalent to the sum of (the difference between Example 5 and Comparative Example 4) and (the difference between Comparative Example 3 and Comparative Example 4).

[0300] Example 5 differs from Comparative Example 4 in that the polyurethane-polyurea polymer in Example 5 contains terminal carboxyl groups, but no metal ion chelating agent is added to the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion. The results in Table 3 show that compared to Comparative Example 4, Example 5 maintains the same tensile strength, increases elongation by 7%, and reduces the amount of calcium ions in the rubber compound by 238 ppm.

[0301] Comparative Example 3 differs from Comparative Example 4 in that the polyurethane-polyurea polymer in Comparative Example 3 lacks terminal carboxyl groups, but the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion contains an additional metal ion chelating agent. The results in Table 3 show that compared to Comparative Example 4, Example 4 exhibits essentially unchanged tensile strength, a -40% increase in elongation, and a -110 ppm reduction in calcium ion content.

[0302] Example 4 differs from Comparative Example 4 in that the polyurethane-polyurea polymer in Example 4 contains terminal carboxyl groups, and the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion contains an additional metal ion chelating agent. The results in Table 3 show that compared to Comparative Example 4, Example 4 exhibits essentially unchanged tensile strength, a 10% increase in elongation, and a 250 ppm reduction in calcium ion content. Both values ​​are greater than the sum of the changes in Example 5 relative to Comparative Example 4 and the changes in Comparative Example 3 relative to Comparative Example 4.

[0303] It can be seen that when the polyurethane-polyurea containing terminal carboxyl groups is used in combination with another metal chelating agent, the effect of the combination of the terminal carboxyl groups and the metal chelating agent in increasing the elongation of the product and reducing the calcium ion content in the rubber compound is greater than the sum of the technical effects produced by the terminal carboxyl groups and the metal chelating agent alone.

[0304] Therefore, in the polyurethane-polyurea aqueous dispersion of the present disclosure, the carboxyl or carboxylate groups at the ends of the polyurethane-polyurea polymers and the additionally added metal chelating agent achieve a synergistic effect in improving the elongation of the product and reducing the calcium ion content in the latex, while achieving this synergistic effect without compromising the tensile strength of the product. Thus, the present disclosure avoids the destabilization of the rubber compound by metal ions while improving the mechanical properties of the resulting gloves, such as improved elongation and excellent tensile strength.

[0305] The foregoing description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present disclosure. The scope of protection of the present disclosure is determined by the appended claims.
