Description

High-strength high-toughness polypropylene imide foam material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technology of polypropylene imide foam materials, and relates to a high-strength high-toughness polypropylene imide foam material as well as a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Polyacrylimide (PMI) foams appeared at the earliest in Germany in the 60's of the 20 th century. Compared with other foam materials, the PMI foam has the excellent characteristics of high strength, high modulus, isotropy, high temperature resistance, 100% closed cell, easy processing, heat setting and the like, and is a structural foam core material with the optimal comprehensive performance at present. At present, PMI foam is the first choice foam core material of a high-performance carbon fiber sandwich composite material, and the carbon fiber/PMI sandwich composite material is widely applied to a bearing or secondary bearing structure of a component.
The properties of Polymethacrylimide (PMI) material are high modulus and low elongation at break. Therefore, the research on toughening of the material has not been interrupted. Japanese patents JP52-63989, JP59-42017 successively report the modification of PMI materials with polybutadiene graft rubber and polyolefin rubber, which results in poor thermal stability of the materials, loss of heat resistance and failure to maintain good thermal properties of the PMI materials; to reduce the loss of thermal properties, the US4902742 patent uses polysiloxane rubber to toughen and modify PMI materials and found that the melt index of the resin was significantly increased while increasing impact strength, and these studies all indicate that the PMI resin system lacks toughness.
The PMI foam is based on PMI resin, and the low elongation at break of the PMI foam also limits the use stability of the material. In order to improve the use safety in aviation and transportation equipment, the toughening research of PMI foam materials is increasingly emphasized. EP356714, JP2006045532 report the use of metal salts to form crosslinks of ionic structures to improve the mechanical property stability of PMI foams, but also in the case of lower elongation at break. EP532023 invention uses a non-crosslinked, fine cell structure to increase elongation at break, resulting in poor heat resistance and creep properties. EP1678244 discloses fine-celled foams with elongation at break of up to 5.5% which are obtained by changing the blowing agent or adding insoluble nucleating agents in the presence of crosslinking agents. However, the use of insoluble nucleating agents requires the addition of dust-proofing agents, which increases the cost, and the elongation at break of small-cell foams does not exceed 5.5%. The method for solving the problem of insufficient elongation at break provided by the ROHACELL FX product is to improve the plasticizing effect of the product by adopting a method for increasing water absorption, and the mechanical property and the thermodynamic property of PMI foam are obviously damaged due to high water content. Patent CN100420702 describes acrylonitrile based PMI foams which, although giving the material good tensile strength, at the same time have a slight decrease in their thermodynamic properties. Patent US2013/0108817A1 uses polyethylene glycol containing an unsaturated end group of an alkyl methacrylate as a cross-linking agent, which can reduce the cracking of PMI foams, especially greatly reduce the cracking in the temperature range of-60 ℃ to 200 ℃, and simultaneously, while obtaining good heat resistance, make PMI foams have particularly high ultimate tensile strength, and the elongation at break of the material can exceed 6.0%, and some even exceed 9.0%.
From the above researches, it can be found that the thermoplastic rubber or plastic toughened PMI material system often affects the heat resistance of the material itself, and even causes loss of the strength and modulus of the material.
