Description

Method for preparing small-particle-size ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene powder
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of ultra-high molecular weight polymers, relates to a method for preparing ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene powder suitable for various functional materials, and in particular relates to a method for preparing ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene particles, wherein the particle size of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene particles is smaller than that of the existing ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene particles, no aggregation exists among the particles, the particle size distribution is extremely narrow, and the sphericity is high.
Background
Ultra-high molecular weight polyolefin represented by ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is widely used for mechanical parts, lining materials, sports goods, and the like, because it is lightweight and has excellent properties such as abrasion resistance, impact resistance, chemical resistance, and self-lubricity. In recent years, development of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene microparticles is active, and has been widely used for various industrial applications. In particular, polyethylene fine particles having a spherical particle shape and a narrow particle size distribution are used for filters, separation membranes, dispersants, powder coatings, resin modifiers, coating agents, and the like because of their excellent processability, flowability, and surface physical properties.
For example, the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fine particles may be used as a column packing for efficient separation of chemical or biological substances, or may be used as an adsorbent or a catalyst carrier having a high specific surface area. In addition, the polymer can be used as a carrier for drug delivery and release, or as a dispersant for uniformly dispersing a poorly dispersible particulate material, and can be used as a highly safe particulate material for cosmetic raw materials that gives good feel to the skin. Furthermore, researchers are actively researching their application in the field of functional new materials. For example, the porous material is used as a separator member for lithium batteries or lithium ion secondary batteries, a high-performance binder having a sintered porous body such as light diffusion, reflection, antireflection optical filter member, ceramics, etc., a pore-forming material such as a porous membrane, a support for fixing immunochemically active substances, a sintered filter having a fine pore and a high specific surface area, a smoothness imparting agent, a toner, a matting agent for paint, an additive for light diffusion, an insulating filler, a crystal nucleating agent, a filler for chromatograph, a support for immunodiagnosis, etc. In order to provide ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene particles with new applications for further functionality and to further improve the performance and quality of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene particles, researchers have been working to develop spherical ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene particles having smaller particle diameters, narrower particle size distributions, and no aggregation between particles. Among the above uses, the use of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene particles as a filter material is rapidly developing as an emerging use. However, when a filter is produced by molding an ultrahigh molecular weight polyolefin, since the fluidity of the ultrahigh molecular weight polyolefin is poor when it is melted, the conventional melt molding method cannot be adopted, but the polyolefin powder is directly subjected to a rotational molding method, a powder molding method, or the like, but the filter produced therefrom has poor filtration performance. In the prior art, when the microfiltration membrane is prepared by a sintering method, only the surface of the raw material particles is melted instead of the whole surface, so that the raw material particles are mutually bonded inside the filtration membrane to form network-shaped through holes. And the size and distribution of the network through holes are related to the particle size and distribution of UHMWPE powder. The effect of UHMWPE particle size on product performance is shown by larger particle size and larger aperture ratio, but the micropore structure is easy to become irregular, the micropore distribution is uneven, and the strength of the filter membrane is reduced; however, the smaller the particle diameter, the finer and uniform the microporous structure, and the lower the aperture ratio, but the strength of the filter membrane is increased.
In the preparation of filters by sintering, it is very important to achieve a dense loading of UHMWPE powder in order to make sintering more efficient, which requires a high bulk density of UHMWPE powder (bulk density should be higher than 0.35 g/cm) 3 Even more preferably higher than 0.4g/cm 3 ). And the average particle size (D of the UHMWPE powder 50 ) Is also an important feature (the average particle size (D 50 ) Preferably less than 150 μm, more preferably 100 μm or less). Furthermore, the particle size distribution is often referred to as "span", defined as (D 90 -D 10 )/D 50 Should be low, preferably 1.5 or less, and even more preferably 1.0 or less.
The shape of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene powder particles is transformed from the shape of the catalyst particles, also known as replication phenomenon. Typically, when such replication occurs, the average particle size of the polymer is proportional to the catalyst yield, i.e., the cube root in grams of polymer produced per gram of catalyst. See ("Transition Metals and Organometallics as Catalysts for Olefin Polymerization" Kaminsky, W.Sinn, H.Eds.Springer 1988, 209-222.). Based on the above proportionality, small average particle size polymer particles can be produced by reducing catalyst productivity, but this also results in high catalyst residues in the polymer and high catalyst costs required to produce the polymer. This also places stringent demands on the catalyst (higher catalyst activity is required and polymer particle size is below 150 μm, preferably below 100 μm). It is generally required that the metal content, particularly the titanium atom content, in the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene is 5ppm or less. However, the ultra-high molecular weight polyolefin particles should have a catalytic activity of at least 2.0X10 when they contain less than 5ppm of titanium atoms 5 gPE/gTi.
However, in order to achieve ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene particles having a particle size of 100 μm or less and to maintain a high production efficiency, it is necessary to develop a catalyst having a particle size of less than 5. Mu.m. And as the catalytic activity increases, the particle size of the catalyst is required to be smaller and smaller. However, at present, solid-liquid separation and then drying are generally adopted in the preparation of Ziegler Natta catalysts. The catalyst prepared by the method is easy to harden and agglomerate, and even if stirring with high strength is adopted, the catalyst particles cannot be completely scattered. Thus causing an increase in the particle size of the catalyst particles. And although the slurry catalyst prepared by the non-drying method can prevent agglomeration of particles, the method is not suitable for preservation of the catalyst and is unfavorable for industrial production of the catalyst.
As disclosed in patent document publication No. CN101790547a, a method for preparing ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene particles is disclosed, and the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene prepared by the method has good flow rate and processability. However, the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene resin prepared by the method has low molecular weight and low mechanical property, so that the method is not suitable for producing high-strength and high-modulus fibers.
Patent document publication No. CN109627363a discloses a method for preparing a polyolefin catalyst with small particle size by a one-pot method, which adopts a one-pot method to prepare a polyolefin catalyst with small particle size in a reaction kettle equipped with a high shear emulsifying machine. The method can be used for preparing polyolefin catalyst particles with the particle size of 3.7 mu m at least, and the particle size of polyethylene powder prepared by the method is smaller than 125 mu m. However, the particle size of the catalyst is not small enough, and thus the particle size of the polyethylene produced therefrom is not small enough. Thus failing to meet the requirements of filter materials and fiber materials.
Patent document with publication number CN106317273B reports an ultra-high molecular weight ultra-fine particle size polyethylene powder and a method for preparing the same. The polyethylene prepared by the method has the particle size of 45-85 mu m, and the maximum bulk density of the polyethylene is only 0.22g/cm although the particle size is smaller 3 Such low bulk density would severely affect single pot throughput, thus resulting in low commercial efficiency of polyethylene production.
The patent document CN1189486C provides a catalytic system for preparing UHMWPE of high bulk density and good particle morphology by preparing a magnesium-aluminum solution from magnesium halide and aluminum compound in the presence of alcohol, then adding titanium compound and silicon compound after reacting with electron donor to prepare the catalyst. Although the catalyst system has good catalytic activity and the bulk density of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene prepared by the catalyst system is relatively high, the particle size of polyethylene powder is 152-179 mu m, and the polyethylene powder in the form is unfavorable for spinning and filter use.
The publication CN1746197a provides a catalytic system for preparing UHMWPE with high bulk density, which uses a catalyst formed by first preparing a support and then supporting titanium, so that the preparation method of the catalyst is cumbersome. And a silicon compound is also required to be added in the preparation of UHMWPE, although the UHMWPE prepared by the method has higher molecular weight, the catalytic activity of the catalyst is not high, and the polymerization time is 4h, and the catalytic activity is only about 3 ten thousand times, so that the time is longer.
The existing preparation of UHMWPE powder not only requires a catalyst to have higher catalytic activity, but also needs to have dynamics stability and long-acting property so as to prevent the polymer from generating oversized particles or undersized particles to the maximum extent and reduce ash content of the polymer, which is particularly important in the preparation of super-strong polyethylene fibers and lithium battery diaphragms. Meanwhile, the polymer is required to have controllable molecular weight and good morphology so as to stabilize the process and improve the running efficiency. This is also the direction of development of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene catalysts in the future, thus requiring catalysts with higher mechanical attrition strength and good particle morphology.
