Description

Waterborne polyurethane and continuous preparation process thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of polyurethane, in particular to waterborne polyurethane and a continuous preparation process thereof.
Background
The waterborne polyurethane takes water as a dispersion medium, does not contain volatile organic solvent (VOC), is a green and environment-friendly organic polymer material, has the characteristics of no toxicity, energy conservation, safety, difficult combustion and the like, and also has good comprehensive performance. When the waterborne polyurethane is used for construction, a polyurethane film is formed after water volatilizes in the process, and the waterborne polyurethane film has the same excellent performance as a polyurethane material. Common waterborne polyurethane in the market at present mainly comprises single-component waterborne polyurethane, double-component waterborne polyurethane and modified waterborne polyurethane.
The single-component waterborne polyurethane is the most applied waterborne polyurethane, the elongation at break and the strength of the single-component waterborne polyurethane can meet the common requirements, and the single-component waterborne polyurethane can be dried at normal temperature. The main varieties of the polyurethane comprise thermosetting polyurethane, waterborne polyurethane containing blocked isocyanate, room temperature curing waterborne polyurethane, photocuring waterborne polyurethane and polyurethane-acrylate.
The bi-component waterborne polyurethane has the excellent performances of low film forming temperature, strong adhesive force, good wear resistance, high hardness, chemical resistance and the like. In the two components, one component is a curing agent containing active isocyanate groups, and the other component is a water-based polyol capable of chemically reacting with the active isocyanate groups. The curing agent is an important factor affecting the film-forming properties, and should have good solubility, sufficient functionality and reactivity, while having a low viscosity to facilitate mixing with other resins. The aqueous polyol should have a dispersing function to uniformly disperse the hydrophobic curing agent in water with a sufficiently small particle diameter to ensure excellent properties in coating.
The modified waterborne polyurethane has a plurality of modification methods, and the mature method comprises the following steps: acrylic acid modification, epoxy resin modification, organic silicon modification, organic fluorine modification, nano modification, vegetable oil modification, crosslinking modification, multi-element modification and the like.
In the synthesis of the aqueous polyurethane, the curing agent, the aqueous polyol and the chain extender are generally mixed and reacted to prepare a prepolymer having a low molecular weight or a polyurethane resin having a high molecular weight, and then the prepolymer or the polyurethane resin is dissolved or emulsified in water. The synthesis method mainly comprises an acetone method, a prepolymer method, a melt dispersion polycondensation method, a ketimine/ketone nitrogen-linking method and a protective end group emulsification method.
When the waterborne polyurethane is produced by adopting the method, the raw materials are required to be prepolymerized in a reaction kettle. The viscosity of the reaction product increases with the progress of the prepolymerization reaction, and a low-boiling-point organic solvent is usually used for reducing the viscosity for the convenience of subsequent treatment, or a substance with lower molecular weight is selected when the raw materials are added, then the product needs to be transferred to a dispersion kettle for neutralization and dispersion, and finally the organic solvent in the product is removed.
The above process involves stepwise operation, which often results in low production efficiency, unstable product quality, and large batch-to-batch variation. Meanwhile, with the high importance of environmental protection and the gradual implementation of various environmental laws and regulations, the operation of removing the organic solvent cannot meet the requirements, and meanwhile, the reaction temperature in the later stage of synthesis is lower, and the reaction time is prolonged.
The patents and patents overcome the above problems by using a continuous production process. In the patent CN 108097194A, five-section series-connected tubular reactors are adopted to continuously produce the waterborne polyurethane. Firstly, simultaneously adding oligomer polyol into a first-stage tubular reactor through four inlets, and reacting a curing agent and the oligomer polyol in the first-stage tubular reactor to obtain a prepolymer I; simultaneously adding a nonionic hydrophilic compound into a second section of tubular reactor through three inlets, and reacting the prepolymer I with the nonionic hydrophilic compound to obtain a prepolymer II; adding a solvent and/or an acrylate monomer into the third section of tubular reactor to dilute the prepolymer II; adding a hydrophilic chain extender and micromolecular diamine into the fourth section of tubular reactor to carry out chain extension reaction on the diluted prepolymer II to obtain a waterborne polyurethane ionomer; and adding deionized water into the fifth section of tubular reactor to emulsify and disperse the waterborne polyurethane ionomer to obtain the waterborne polyurethane coarse emulsion. Patent CN 109824913a disperses an aqueous polyurethane prepolymer in water by a tubular disperser to prepare aqueous polyurethane. The tubular disperser comprises a feed inlet and a plurality of water inlets, and the water inlets are uniformly distributed on the tubular disperser in the axial direction. The tubular disperser comprises a central shaft, and the central shaft is provided with a plurality of tooth-row dispersing disks. In addition, the tubular disperser contains two inner partition plates, and the inner cavity of the tubular disperser is divided into three areas, namely a premixing area, a phase transition area and a diluting area along the axial direction. And adding water into the tubular disperser in an unequal manner for many times, and dispersing and emulsifying the prepolymer under the rotation action of the dispersing disc.
However, the production method is only suitable for producing the specific type of waterborne polyurethane, the production process is limited by a specific reactor, and the complex structure of the reactor makes the components difficult to process and install. At the same time, relatively high energy input is often required for dispersing the prepolymer, and the polydispersity of the particle size is difficult to control.
