Background
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a water-soluble polymer having excellent overall properties. PVA has excellent oil resistance, solvent resistance and gas barrier performance, and has unique advantages in packaging organic solvent, food, medicine, etc. Since the PVA polymer chain contains a large amount of active hydroxyl groups, a large amount of intramolecular and intermolecular hydrogen bonds are easily formed, so that the melting temperature of the PVA is quite close to the thermal decomposition temperature thereof, and the PVA is melted and decomposed, thereby being difficult to carry out thermoplastic processing. PVA begins to change color when heated to more than 200 ℃, begins to decompose at 240-250 ℃, and violently decomposes at 300 ℃, so that the PVA cannot be processed by a conventional melting method. The solution processing and forming process is complex, the cost is high, the environmental pollution is large, and the products with thick walls and complex shapes are difficult to prepare. Therefore, the reduction of the melting temperature and the improvement of the thermal stability are necessary conditions for realizing the melt processing and molding of PVA.
According to the above principle, in order to improve the melt processability, it is necessary to modify the PVA, for example, to destroy the hydrogen bonds, weaken the interaction between PVA macromolecules or change the flexibility of the chain, to lower the melting point, or to reduce the number of hydrogen bonds. In view of the above, researchers at home and abroad have conducted a lot of research, mainly including copolymerization modification, high polymer blending and solution plasticization. And (4) copolymerization modification. As for copolymerization modification, by copolymerization, other monomers with weaker acting force, such as vinyl, are introduced into the molecular chain of PVA, so that the acting force among molecules can be weakened, and the melting point of the PVA can be reduced. The higher the molecular chain flexibility of the comonomer, the poorer the regularity and the better the modification effect. The PVA modified by vinyl monomers can effectively reduce the melting point, and companies such as Mitsubishi chemical and Sumitomo chemical all have patents in the aspect of the melting point. In their patents, vinyl monomers and vinyl acetate are copolymerized, modified PVA is obtained by alkaline saponification, and then melt spinning is carried out at a temperature of more than 150 ℃, wherein the mass percentage content of PVA in the copolymer is not less than 50%. The Japanese Coly company synthesizes thermoplastically processable PVA which contains alpha-olefin units and/or vinyl ether units with the carbon number less than 4 and the melting point of 160-230 ℃; regarding blending modification, blending can make the performances of high polymers complement each other, make good use of advantages and avoid disadvantages, but must solve the problem of compatibility. The materials capable of being blended with PVA include water soluble natural polymer and synthetic polymer, the former is corn starch, animal glue, etc. and the latter is polyamide (PA6), water soluble polyurethane, etc. because they have radical capable of generating hydrogen bond with hydroxyl radical, the powerful acting force between PVA molecules is destroyed and the modification is performed. After PVA, polyamide and waxy polyethylene are mixed, the product obtained through melt extrusion and pressing has good fusion and uniformity. The n-butyl boronic acid and the phenyl boronic acid can also react with the hydroxyl group of PVA to obtain a PVA-boronic acid composite, the composite has a lower melting point, and the reduction of the melting point is related to the boric acid content. With the increase of the content of boric acid, the melting temperature of the compound is reduced, and the degradation temperature is increased, so that the compound can be subjected to melt processing; for the plasticization of the solution, the addition of the plasticizer can swell or dilute the high polymer, thereby changing the acting force between the high polymers and reducing the melting point, and the common plasticizers for PVA include water, glycerin, polyhydric alcohol and oligomer thereof, alcohol amine modifier and the like.
CN101864084A discloses a hydroxyethyl cellulose/polyvinyl alcohol blend film and a preparation method thereof, the blend film is prepared by a tape casting method and then is crosslinked with phosphoric acid, the blend film with good mechanical property, thermal stability, hydrolysis resistance and ageing resistance and excellent biodegradability is obtained, and the blend film can be widely used in the fields of medicine, cosmetics, food packaging and the like, however, the invention does not explicitly describe the thermal stability of the polyvinyl alcohol modified blend film. CN101210075 discloses a polymer film containing ionic liquid and a preparation method thereof, the polymer film is prepared from a film material and ionic liquid adsorbed and supported on the film material, the weight of the ionic liquid accounts for 0.1-70% of the weight of the polymer film, the ionic liquid is dissolved into a polyvinyl alcohol aqueous solution to form a uniform solution, the uniform solution is dried at room temperature to form a film, and then the film is crosslinked by a crosslinking agent to obtain the polymer film. The film of the invention has better thermal stability and mechanical stability, simple synthesis operation, potential application value in the processes of catalytic esterification and separation of organic sulfide, aromatic hydrocarbon and alkane, and wide application prospect in the aspects of membrane catalysis, separation analysis, and the like. However, the ionic liquid used in this method is expensive, and the thermal stability of the film is not specifically disclosed. CN1786302A discloses a method for preparing high-performance polyvinyl alcohol fiber by melt spinning, which adopts a composite modifier composed of a nitrogen-containing compound, a hydrophilic auxiliary additive and water to carry out intermolecular hydrogen bond compounding with polyvinyl alcohol to prepare modified polyvinyl alcohol.
In summary, in the existing PVA modification methods, the modification method of copolymerization modification has high requirements on equipment and technology, and cannot modify the conventional PVA products which are already commercialized in a large scale, the existing blending modification method also has some technical bottlenecks, the compatibility of the system during blending is not completely solved, and industrialization is difficult to realize, the existing solution plasticizing method generally only reduces the melting temperature, and the conventional plasticizer is easy to vaporize under the high-temperature melting condition, escapes from the modification system, pollutes the production environment, and brings negative effects on the material composition and the processing flow. Therefore, there is a need to develop a new method for preparing modified PVA.
