Description

A transfer coating for improving the abrasion resistance of tobacco transfer paper and its preparation method Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tobacco packaging technology, and more specifically, to a transfer coating for improving the abrasion resistance of tobacco transfer paper and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Tobacco transfer paper, a special type of paper used for tobacco packaging and transfer, is widely used in the tobacco industry. Existing tobacco transfer papers typically employ traditional coating processes, applying a protective coating to the paper surface to improve its abrasion resistance and durability. These traditional coating materials mainly include polyurethane resin, acrylic resin, and epoxy resin, which provide certain mechanical strength and chemical stability. In addition, some coatings also incorporate functional fillers and nanomaterials to further enhance the overall performance of the coating.

[0003] Although existing technologies have improved the abrasion resistance and durability of tobacco transfer paper to some extent, some significant defects and shortcomings still exist. Traditional coating materials are easily subject to mechanical damage and wear during use. Once the coating is damaged, its protective effect drops rapidly and it cannot self-repair, resulting in a significant reduction in the service life of tobacco transfer paper. Secondly, while improving the hardness and abrasion resistance of the coating, existing coating technologies often sacrifice the flexibility and adhesion of the coating, causing the coating to easily peel off and crack under high stress conditions. Therefore, there is still considerable room for improvement in many aspects of tobacco transfer paper coatings. Summary of the Invention

[0089] The transfer coating of this invention comprises a combination of polyurethane (PU) resin, acrylic resin, and epoxy resin, providing flexibility, adhesion, and abrasion resistance. In particular, it incorporates self-healing microcapsules, which release repair agents when the coating is damaged, enabling the coating to self-repair. The flexibility and adhesion of the PU resin ensure the coating is not easily detached while providing a certain degree of abrasion resistance. The acrylic resin increases the coating's weather resistance and chemical resistance, maintaining stability under various environmental conditions. The addition of epoxy resin further improves the coating's mechanical strength and abrasion resistance. The self-healing microcapsules, encapsulated within the coating, rupture when the coating is damaged by external forces, releasing internal repair agents such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and epoxy resin to quickly repair coating cracks and ensure long-term durability. Compared to traditional coatings, coatings containing self-healing microcapsules effectively extend service life, making them particularly suitable for tobacco transfer papers susceptible to mechanical damage during processing and use.

[0090] This invention further incorporates nanomaterials such as nano-titanium dioxide, nano-boron nitride, and nano-zirconia into the transfer coating. These nanomaterials are uniformly distributed throughout the coating using ultrasonic dispersion technology, significantly improving the coating's wear resistance and mechanical strength. Nano-titanium dioxide not only enhances the coating's hardness but also possesses photocatalytic properties, enabling it to degrade organic matter under light conditions and maintain surface cleanliness. Nano-boron nitride provides excellent thermal conductivity and lubricity, reducing the coefficient of friction at high temperatures and improving the coating's performance in high-temperature environments. Nano-zirconia, with its high hardness and wear resistance, is widely used in coatings requiring high wear resistance. Through synergistic effects with other nanomaterials, it significantly improves the overall performance of the coating. Compared to common filler materials, this combination of nanomaterials not only enhances the coating's hardness and wear resistance but also retains good flexibility and adhesion, making the coating suitable for the specific needs of tobacco transfer paper.

[0091] The transfer coating of this invention also incorporates functional fillers such as graphene, titanium boride fibers, barium titanate microspheres, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) micropowder, and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) microparticles. Graphene plays a crucial role in the coating due to its excellent conductivity and mechanical strength, enhancing its electrical and mechanical properties. Titanium boride fibers increase the coating's hardness and abrasion resistance, enabling it to perform exceptionally well in high-friction environments. Barium titanate microspheres provide good electrical insulation and high mechanical strength, resulting in excellent performance in electrical applications. PTFE micropowder, with its extremely low coefficient of friction, imparts good lubricity to the coating, making it suitable for use in high-friction environments. HDPE microparticles enhance the coating's toughness and abrasion resistance. Through the combined effect of these fillers, the coating exhibits excellent performance in abrasion resistance, conductivity, and lubricity, making it particularly suitable for tobacco transfer paper used in high-friction and complex environments. Compared to traditional functional fillers, the combination of these materials significantly improves the coating's multifunctional performance, meeting the application requirements in complex environments.

[0092] In this invention, the transfer coating incorporates a photoinitiator, UV-curable acrylate resin, pyrrolidone, trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA), and divinylbenzene, enabling rapid curing under UV light to form a high-hardness surface coating. The photoinitiator activates the curing reaction under UV light, allowing the coating to quickly solidify. The UV-curable acrylate resin provides rapid curing and high hardness, significantly improving the coating's abrasion resistance. TMPTA, as a trifunctional monomer, increases the coating's crosslinking density, enhancing its mechanical strength and abrasion resistance. Pyrrolidone improves the coating's flowability and application properties, ensuring uniform coating distribution. Divinylbenzene, through its double-bond structure, enhances the coating's chemical resistance and hardness. Compared to traditional thermosetting coatings, UV-curable coatings not only cure quickly but also have high surface hardness, making them suitable for forming a highly abrasion-resistant protective layer in a short time, particularly applicable to tobacco transfer paper applications in high-abrasion environments. These components work synergistically to achieve excellent performance in terms of hardness, abrasion resistance, and chemical resistance.

The bonding strength between the coating and inorganic components improves the overall performance of the coating; the introduction of titanium dioxide nanoparticles further enhances the mechanical strength and chemical corrosion resistance of the coating; compared with pure organic or pure inorganic coatings, organic-inorganic hybrid coatings, through the synergistic effect of organic and inorganic components, possess both high hardness and chemical resistance, while retaining good flexibility and adhesion, making them particularly suitable for tobacco transfer paper applications requiring high durability and resistance to environmental stress; through scientific combination and ratio optimization, these components enable the coating to exhibit excellent comprehensive performance, meeting the needs of various complex application scenarios.
