Description

Surface treatment method and object obtained by using same
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of waterproof and oil-proof agents, in particular to a spraying method of a fluorine-free oil-proof agent and an object obtained by using the method.
Background
The 'paper replacing plastic' is one of the most effective ways to solve the increasingly serious 'white' pollution problem at present. For paper packaging, paper has the advantages of biodegradability and recycling, but for paper products used in the fields of food, catering and the like, an impermeable barrier layer is required for contacting with food containing oil, fat and/or water, and the technical key of how to endow the paper packaging with waterproof and oil-proof functions is 'paper-for-plastic'. The development of the oil-proof agent for paper has great market potential and is a key field of the current technological innovation.
At present, the oil-proof treatment of paper materials is mainly divided into two types: the first method is to coat oil-proof plastic (commonly called as film coating or plastic coating) on the surface of paper, and the method can only reduce the pollution of the plastic but can not radically treat the pollution of the plastic; the second method is to add an oil-repellent agent into the paper pulp or to coat the paper surface with the oil-repellent agent to achieve the water-repellent and oil-repellent effects. The method greatly retains the advantages of paper biodegradation and recycling.
The mainstream products of the current oil-repellent agents are fluorine-containing oil-repellent agents, particularly perfluoroalkyl phosphate esters (salts) and perfluoroalkyl copolymers, and such polymers have excellent oil-repellent properties mainly due to the presence of C-F bonds which have high bond energy and a small fluorine atom radius, so that-CF3The groups have extremely low surface tension, so that the perfluoroalkyl compounds have excellent properties of being hydrophobic and oleophobic. The fluorine-containing oil-proofing agent is available in various ways, and can be added in the pulp or in the size press or in the coating process.
Research shows that C8-PFCs (perfluorocarbons containing 8 carbons) are gradually exiting the market due to the fact that the C8-PFCs are unsafe in toxicology, have bioaccumulation and potential systemic and developmental toxicity, and the like. Taking perfluorooctylsulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) as examples, the reaction raw materials of various fluorine-containing compounds or the final products of conversion in the environment are perfluorooctylsulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). Since 1999, it is continuously discovered that these substances belong to the most difficult-to-decompose organic pollutants, which are not only not degraded by various heat, chemical and microbial actions, but also enter into the organism through respiratory tract inhalation and food intake, and are difficult to be discharged by the organism through metabolism, so that these substances will accumulate and persist in the environment and organism, thus leading to the ubiquitous existence of these pollutants in the global environment and affecting the blood, liver, newborn development, immune system and hormone level of the organism. In view of the great threat to the environment and the human health, various policies for forbidding the use of the PFOS and the PFOA are developed in various countries in the world, and products related to the PFOS and the PFOA are produced in large enterprises. Although most of the C8 series fluorine-containing oil-proof agents select C6 series fluorine-containing oil-proof agents as substitutes, the data of C6 series fluorine-containing substances on a plurality of toxicological nodes such as chronic and reproductive development toxicity and the like are still lacked, and the data show that PFHxA (undecafluorohexanoic acid, C6) and PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid and salts thereof, C8 and above) have similar toxicological properties aiming at the chronic toxicity, but the accumulation in the liver is not observed, so that the damage action level (NOEAL) value is higher by several orders of magnitude relatively than that of long-chain PFCs.
In addition to fluorine-containing oil-repellent agents, fluorine-free oil-repellent agents have attracted attention in recent years. The fluorine-free oil-proof agent fundamentally avoids the harm of the fluorine-containing oil-proof agent or the film to the environment or organisms, and better meets the pursuit of people for green environmental protection. The 1997 Hangzhou chemical research institute develops an oil-proof agent HOR special for food packaging paper, which is a non-fluorine-containing copolymer aqueous composite emulsion with a core-shell structure. The Khaoula Khwaldia et al studies mentioned that natural polymers used as oil repellents are dispersed whey protein, zein, isolated soy protein, chitosan, etc. Ham-pichovant makes careful research on chitosan as an oil repellent, and although the chitosan can achieve the oil-proof effect of a fluorine-containing oil repellent, the viscosity of the chitosan at the concentration is too high, the chitosan is not easy to coat, the cost is too high, the cost is 3 times of that of the fluorine-containing oil repellent, and even if the chitosan is compounded with other natural polymer materials, the chitosan still has the problems of high viscosity, high price, inconvenience in operation and narrow application range. At present, other kinds of fluorine-free oil-proof agents are constructed by adopting a blade coating mode basically, the cost is overhigh, and the space for further improving the coating quality, the construction efficiency and the oil resistance exists.

In addition, if necessary, a certain amount of preservative may be optionally added to the fluorine-free treating agent of the present invention, and the preservative is used for inhibiting the growth of the bacterial species of the fluorine-free treating agent. In some embodiments of the present invention, the amount of the preservative in the present invention is 0 to 3.0 wt%, further 0.1 to 1.5 wt%, with respect to the total mass of the fluorine-free treatment agent. In order to improve the physical properties of the paper, other additives, such as plasticizers, water repellents, and the like, can be added to the fluorine-free treating agent to modify the properties of the pattern. In some embodiments of the invention, the invention adds an environment-friendly auxiliary agent, preferably an additive which can be contacted with food and/or an additive in food, so that the fluorine-free treatment agent (also called a fluorine-free oil-proof agent) in the invention has no harm to the environment and organisms, and the harm of the fluorine-containing oil-proof agent is radically avoided.
