Description

Acrylate microgel emulsion and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to an acrylate microgel emulsion, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The microgel generally represents particles having a particle size of 1 to 1000nm and an intramolecular cross-linked structure. The microgels are comparable in size to linear polymers of very high molecular weight, and are similar in size to sterically networked crosslinked polymers. The microgel has excellent functions due to the unique molecular structure, and can improve the sagging resistance of the coating. At present, the coating is developed towards the direction of high solid content and low solvent volatilization, so the research of microgel is paid attention to.
The submicron-order acrylate microgel can be prepared by adopting a dispersion polymerization method; the addition of a small amount of microgel to the coating can improve sag resistance. The emulsion polymerization process for preparing reactive microgel is mature, but can be applied to coating after centrifugal filtration, spray drying or freeze drying. The hydroxyl acrylic emulsion with the microgel core structure synthesized by the method is used for bi-component waterborne polyurethane, and the sagging resistance of the coating in vertical surface coating can be improved. The high-concentration acrylate microgel can be synthesized by adopting a microemulsion method, and can be used for modifying high-solid hydroxyl acrylic resin to improve the pseudoplasticity of the coating. The reactive microgel is capable of forming heterogeneous coating films with good mechanical properties. For example, microgel particles obtained by soap-free emulsion polymerization of styrene and carboxyl-terminated unsaturated polyester as monomers are used for modifying unsaturated polyester, so that the impact strength of the unsaturated polyester can be greatly improved.
The microgel has a plurality of active groups in the interior or on the surface, is easy to further react with other monomers, and has a cross-linked structure in the interior, so that the curing speed of a coating film is accelerated. For example, a core/shell type reactive microgel is synthesized from an acrylate monomer, and a functional group remaining in the shell layer is subjected to a crosslinking reaction with an amino resin. The curing agent can generate a cross-linked network only by cross-linking with the shell layer, thereby accelerating the curing.
CN1624009A discloses a preparation method of a hydroxy acrylic emulsion with a microgel core structure, which comprises the steps of taking a vinyl silane coupling agent as a cross-linking agent, copolymerizing the vinyl silane coupling agent and an acrylate monomer to obtain a core with the microgel structure, and then copolymerizing a hydroxy vinyl monomer and an acrylate monomer on the surface of the core to form a shell rich in hydroxy groups to obtain the hydroxy acrylic emulsion with the microgel core structure; the emulsion has a core-shell structure, wherein the core part is hydrophobic siloxane, the shell part contains hydroxyl with strong hydrophilicity, and the shell layer can play a shielding role in the condensation reaction of the siloxane among particles. The emulsion needs to use a vinyl silane coupling agent and needs to form a core-shell structure, so that the production cost is obviously increased.
CN105837757A discloses a microgel aqueous acrylic acid shell-core resin emulsion, which is obtained by reacting 13-16 parts of acrylic acid resin aqueous dispersion, 18-21 parts of vinyl monomer, 20.5-27.6 parts of acrylic acid and ester monomer, 0.3-0.6 part of initiator, 5-6 parts of organic solvent and 49-53 parts of water. The above patent documents do not disclose that the use of a hydroxyl group-containing acrylate in combination with a polyol polyacrylate improves the sag resistance of a paint film, nor how an aqueous acrylic resin dispersion is prepared, nor does it demonstrate that the addition of such an emulsion to an aqueous coating can improve the sag resistance of a paint film.

The acrylic ester microgel emulsion obtained by the method can be directly mixed with paint to improve the sagging resistance of the paint. The invention also provides the application of the acrylate microgel emulsion in improving the sagging resistance of the coating, wherein the acrylate microgel emulsion is used in an amount of 3-28 wt%, preferably 6-25 wt%, and more preferably 13-20 wt%, based on the total weight of the coating. Compared with the coating without the acrylate microgel emulsion, the anti-sagging performance of the coating can be obviously improved by adding the acrylate microgel emulsion. However, the amount of acrylate microgel emulsion used is not simply a linear increase in sag resistance of the coating. When the dosage of the microgel emulsion reaches more than 4 wt%, the maximum wet film thickness of a paint film formed by the paint without sagging is increased by more than three times. When the dosage of the microgel emulsion reaches more than 20 wt%, the maximum wet film thickness of a paint film without sagging is increased by more than five times; continuing to increase the amount of microgel emulsion too much results in a decrease in the maximum wet film thickness at which the paint film does not sag.
The test methods and materials of the present invention are described below.
And (3) measuring the anti-sagging performance: GB/T9264-2012 (determination of the sag resistance of the paint) is adopted, the temperature is 23 +/-2 ℃, and the relative humidity is 50 +/-5%.

TABLE 2
Figure BDA0001959743400000161
Examples 1 to 6
The acrylate microgel emulsion of example 1 was mixed with an epoxy primer and the viscosity was adjusted to 25s (coat 4# cup viscosity determination). The test was carried out using GB/T9264-2012 (determination of the sag resistance of paints) and the results are given in the following table. A photograph of the paint film is shown in FIG. 1.
TABLE 3
Figure BDA0001959743400000171
The preparation process of example 1 was repeated 3 times to obtain three batches of enoate microgel emulsions, and sag resistance tests were performed under the conditions of the experimental examples described above, with results consistent with table 3.
It can be seen from the table that the addition of the acrylate microgel emulsion of the present invention can significantly improve the sag resistance of the primer compared to the epoxy resin primer without the addition of the acrylate microgel emulsion of the present invention. When the dosage of the microgel emulsion reaches more than 4 wt%, the maximum wet film thickness of a paint film without sagging is increased by more than three times. When the dosage of the microgel emulsion reaches more than 20 wt%, the maximum wet film thickness of a paint film without sagging is increased by more than five times; continuing to increase the amount of microgel emulsion too much results in a decrease in the maximum wet film thickness at which the paint film does not sag.
The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and any variations, modifications, and substitutions which may occur to those skilled in the art may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
