Technical field
, can using this method energy activated clay surface the present invention relates to a kind of new surface of clay processing method
Enough efficient and easy grafting organic molecules, pass through the design to course of reaction parameter, the kind of control surface of clay organic molecule
Class and grafting amount, so that modified clay is applied to prepare different types of polymer nanocomposites.
Background technology
In recent years, in order to improve the performances such as the mechanics of polymer, barrier properties for gases, many scientific research institutions attempt to make with company
Standby composite nano polymer/clay material.Clay layer possesses high modulus in itself and intensity, very big specific surface area etc. are excellent
Different characteristic.The performance of products obtained therefrom can be greatly improved by it being added with suitable process in polymer, expanded it and used neck
Domain.It is bad with the main polymer chain compatibility of low polarity but the lamella polarity of clay is very high;And clay layer and interlayer from
Son has very strong interaction, therefore, it is difficult to make it be dispersed into polymeric matrix with the state of monolithic layer, so that clay
Modified effect cannot fully play.In order to solve above problem, widespread practice is to pass through ion using quaternary ammonium salt at present
The method of exchange is modified to clay.Quaternary ammonium salt can reduce surface of clay polarity, and expand the interlamellar spacing of clay to drop
Interaction between low layer, so as to improve clay in the polymer scattered.
Although the above method improves the dispersiveness of clay, but ignore the interaction between clay and polymer.It is viscous
The native naturally occurring functional group in surface is less, causes the interface performance of clay and polymeric matrix poor, the external force suffered by material
Rigid filler can not be delivered to, so that the humidification of filler significantly weakens.Filler can even change in extreme circumstances
Into additional impurity, the too early failure of induced material, fracture.Meanwhile the thermostabilization of quaternary ammonium salt is relatively low, it is seriously limited at certain
Application in a little high-melting-point polymers.Especially when composite nano polymer/clay material is by solution blending or original position
When prepared by the method for polymerization, quaternary ammonium salt can due to long-time contacts with solvent or polymer monomer and from montmorillonite layer dissolution.
It is also, also very high for high-melting-point polymer, its melt blending temperature(Such as nylon, PET), therefore quaternary ammonium salt modified montmorillonoid
When preparing nano composite polymer-montmorillonoid material, use range is severely limited.And pass through coupling agent and clay layer
The methods of section hydroxyl directly reacts introduces limiting for the hydroxyl quantity that active group is then available for reacting by surface of clay, it is difficult to
The interfacial characteristics of clay is greatly improved.Simultaneously as the polarity difference of clay and polymer, during composite is prepared
Generally require to add compatilizer to improve the dispersiveness of filler and compatibility, such as maleic anhydride grafted polymer.These auxiliary agents
Although can improve the microscopic appearance of composite to a certain extent, enhancing modified effect is not notable, and equally
It result in stability problem and add production cost.
The content of the invention
The invention provides a kind of new surface of clay processing mode, can not only in a manner of very simple and effective
Surface of clay introduces functional group, can more improve the compatibility of clay in the polymer and dispersiveness, so as in polymer and clay
Stronger interaction is built between filler, in the case of without using any compatilizer by melt blending, solution blending or
The methods of person's in-situ polymerization, prepares nano composite material, and the performance of gained composite is substantially improved.
