Description

The preparation of redispersible polymer powder in aqueous medium
The present invention relates to a kind of method for preparing redispersible polymer powder in aqueous medium, it prepares by the aqueous polymer dispersion that drying is added with drying aids, and the dispersive polymer particles has the plus or minus surface charge in this dispersion aqueous medium.
The invention still further relates to the redispersible polymer powder in water that obtains by this method, the purposes of these powder (for example as the additive in the inorganic adhesive or the tackiness agent of synthetic resins), and the aqueous polymer dispersion of these powder of preparation that contains the polyelectrolyte of adding.
Aqueous polymer dispersion (latex) is the system of extensively understanding for people, and its disperse phase is a spherical ball of string (being polymer particles) that is formed by the polymer chain that interwinds basically.Polymer particles typically have a diameter from 10-1000nm.Situation during as the polymers soln solvent flashing, aqueous polymer dispersion has the tendency that forms polymeric film after the volatilization of water base dispersion medium, so they can be used as base-material, tackiness agent and coating and use (they are especially favourable as the application of the high inside coating of the tackiness agent of synthetic resins and pigment content).
The most important factor of impact polymer water dispersion character is the size that is present in polymer particles in the dispersion disperse phase.The character of aqueous polymer dispersion, especially the glossiness of viscosity or its film depends on the particle diameter of dispersive polymer particles, or or rather, depend on that (for identical polymkeric substance, the film that little polymer particles forms generally has high glossiness for the size distribution of dispersive polymer particles; Wide size distribution generally makes the viscosity of aqueous polymer dispersion lower; The dispersion of little polymer particles, general higher to the bounding force of pigment, or the like).
But the defective that aqueous polymer dispersion is used is its preparation and uses and generally do not carry out in same place.Transportation from the preparation place to the place to use means the polymkeric substance that not only will transport the unique component of final formation polymeric film, but also will additionally transport the dispersion medium water that all can obtain easily throughout.In addition, aqueous polymer dispersion can only join in the place to use and improve the latter in the mineral binder bond, otherwise this binding agent just can solidify before use.
Therefore a kind of desirable form of any aqueous polymer dispersion is exactly the polymer powder of redispersible it when adding water.
Adding the water polymer powders redispersible generally obtains by drying of aqueous polymer dispersions.The example of this drying means has freeze-drying and spray-drying process.A kind of method in back is to be sprayed to polymeric dispersions in one hot gas flow and to carry out drying, and it is particularly conducive to the mass production powder.Be used for exsiccant gas and preferably and the super-dry device that circulates (for example with reference to EP-A262326 or EP-A407889) by the dispersion of being sprayed.
Though with polymers soln drying completely reversibility normally, but by the shortcoming of the polymer powder of drying of aqueous polymer dispersions preparation be add behind the water their redispersion ability generally may be not exclusively satisfactory, the polymer particles size distribution that forms during redispersion is general different with (the initial particle size distribution) of initial water dispersion.
This is because different with polymers soln, aqueous polymer dispersion is formed not to be thermodynamic stable system.It generates the interface that bigger secondary particulate (for example condensation product) reduces polymkeric substance and dispersion medium by the combination of less primary fine particles.Add dispersion agent in the disperse phase in the aqueous medium, can in considerable time, prevent the generation of two atomic grains.
The most common situation is, dispersion agent be can stable dispersion polymkeric substance/water base dispersion medium interface material.They are normally water miscible, can be divided into two big classes: a) protective colloid; B) emulsifying agent.The latter can be divided into again: a) anionic emulsifier; B) cationic emulsifier; C) nonionic emulsifier.The stabilization effect of protective colloid mainly is because protective colloid surrounds the dispersed polymeres particulate, and it is carried out space and/or electrostatic shielding.Their relative molecular weight is usually above 1500.They can the chemistry or only physical connection on the dispersed polymeres particulate.
Relative molecular weight is that less than the reason of the stabilization effect of 1500 emulsifying agent because they have amphipathic structure (polarity part-nonpolar part), they can reduce the interfacial tension at polymkeric substance/water base dispersion medium interface usually.If polarity partly is cationic group, then be called cationic emulsifier.If polarity partly is the anionic group, then be called anionic emulsifier.In polarity partly is under the situation of non-ionic type, then to be called nonionic emulsifier.Different with protective colloid, emulsifying agent can form micella in water.In addition, their feature is, at 25 ℃ and 1atm, when reaching micelle-forming concentration, they can reduce at least 25% with the surface tension of water.For anionic emulsifier, suitable counter ion is basic metal, alkaline-earth metal and ammonium ion.The suitable especially counter ion of cationic emulsifier is OH -, halogen ion and NO 3 -
In the aqueous polymer dispersion with the cationic emulsifier stabilization, the polymer particles that forms disperse phase correspondingly has positive surface charge.Aqueous polymer dispersion with the anionic emulsifier stabilization contains the polymer particles with negative surface charge.The same with protective colloid, emulsifying agent also can the chemistry or only physical connection on the dispersed polymeres particulate.Certainly, also can use protective colloid and emulsifying agent to come the stabilization of polymers water dispersion simultaneously.
The other method of surface charge is provided is to mix the ionizable component in this polymkeric substance in order to be scattered in polymer particles in the aqueous medium.This is meant the compound that (for example) is such, α for example, and β-monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid, it can form the pH value by changing aqueous medium electric charge or become ion at dissociation in water.If the dispersed phase polymer of aqueous polymer dispersion is directly to prepare (primary dispersion body) by the monomer free radical water emulsion polymerization with at least one ethylenically unsaturated group, the surface of dispersed polymeres particulate also may have the plus or minus electric charge that is produced by radical polymerization initiator so.Suitable molecular weight regulator (for example referring to JP-A7/53728) is another source of electric charge.Under the situation of secondary polymerization thing dispersion, polymkeric substance preparation (for example using radical polymerization, polycondensation or addition polymerization method) in solution usually, and be subsequently converted to aqueous polymer dispersion.Similarly, required surface charge can be produced by the initiator of selecting, conditioning agent and (under situation about transforming) dispersion agent.
The dispersed phase polymer particulate of aqueous polymer dispersion has and negative still have positive surface charge and can be determined by the electrophoretic mobility of measuring them by ordinary method.Most aqueous polymer dispersions have the polymer particles (aqueous polymer dispersion of anionic stabilization) that the surface has negative charge.They are the same with the aqueous polymer dispersion of cationic stabilization, are as known in the art all.
But in the drying process of aqueous polymer dispersion, the separating effect of dispersion agent is no longer enough usually, and forms irreversible secondary granule to a certain extent, that is, secondary granule remains unchanged in the redispersion process.Influence the performance of the aqueous polymer dispersion that redispersion obtains unfriendly.
Known have a kind of like this material, when being added to it in the aqueous polymer dispersion, can being suppressed at and forming irreversible secondary granule in the drying process.These materials are referred to as drying aids.They are well-known, and spraying drying auxiliary agent particularly is because spraying drying has promoted the formation of irreversible secondary granule to a certain extent.Simultaneously, drying aids has suppressed the formation of adhered polymer layer on dry wall in spray-drying process, thereby has improved the productive rate of polymer powder.
According to TIZ-Fachberichte109 No.9 (1985), 698et seq., the drying aids that uses all is water miscible at present, and they form a kind of matrix in drying process, and the water-insoluble primary polymer particulate that is surrounded by dispersion agent is embedded in this matrix.Matrix is surrounded and has been protected the primary polymer particulate, prevents to form irreversible secondary granule (being generally the aggregate of 50-250 μ m), and it comprises a large amount of primary fine particles that separated by drying aids matrix.Redispersion is in water the time, and this matrix is dissolved again, can form the primary polymer particulate that is surrounded by dispersion agent when initial basically again.In most cases, also in the reversible secondary granule that forms, add finely divided caking inhibiter (as finely divided silica powder), separating redispersible aggregate, with prevent (for example) in storage process they owing to gravity pressure lumps.
Germany applies for that openly DAS2238903 and EP-A576844 recommend to use poly-(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) as such drying aids.The water-soluble alkali of the multipolymer of EP-A78449 recommendation use 20-70wt (weight) % vinyl pyrrolidone and 30-80wt% vinyl-acetic ester, the condenses of naphthene sulfonic acid/formaldehyde and/or alkaline earth salt and their mixture are as drying aids.EP-A601518 recommends to use the drying aids of polyvinyl alcohol as the polyacrylic acid ester aqueous dispersion of anionic stabilization.U.Rietz recommends to use the drying aids of polyvinyl alcohol as aqueous polymer dispersion in Chemie u.Technologie makromolekularer Stoffe (FH-Texte FH Aachen) 53. (1987), 85.
EP-A467 103 relates to a kind of method for preparing redispersible polymer powder in aqueous medium, and it comprises, at 50-80mol (mole) the unsaturated list of % olefinic or dicarboxylic acid and the 20-50mol%C that add as drying aids 3-C 12Behind alkene and/or the cinnamic multipolymer, with the aqueous polymer dispersion spraying drying of anionic stabilization.
EP-A629650 recommends to use and contains the polymkeric substance of olefinic unsaturated sulfonic acid polymerized unit as the drying aids in the spraying drying of the aqueous polymer dispersion of anionic stabilization.
But the defective of the drying aids of prior art is that their performances in the drying of aqueous polymer dispersions process can not be entirely satisfactory.Particularly, in aqueous medium, during redispersion, can not reach initial polymer particles Particle Distribution (for example referring to TIZ-Fachberichte, 109No.9 (1985), 699) usually.When the dispersion of redispersion was filtered, the amount of residual condensation product can show this point on the filter.
JP-A7/53728 relates to a kind of spray drying process of aqueous polymer dispersion of ionic stabilization, it to the water dispersion that wherein adds water-insoluble finely divided inorganics particulate as drying aids, carry out drying afterwards, the surface charge of inorganics particulate is opposite with the surface charge polarity of dispersed polymeres particulate.Described inorganics particulate by electrostatic adhesion on the dispersed polymeres particulate, thereby in the drying process of aqueous polymer dispersion, form a protective layer, this patent claims that it promptly can improve redispersible, can prevent bonding again.Though proved the anti stick effect in an embodiment, do not proved that redispersible is enhanced.The shortcoming of JP-A7/93728 method is that the diameter of finely divided inorganics particulate must mate with the diameter of polymer particles.So just produced difficulty, particularly wanted under the situation of dry superfine dispersive aqueous polymer dispersion and aqueous polymer dispersion has under the situation that very wide particle diameter distributes.
EP-A262326 relates to a kind of particular spray drying means of aqueous polymer dispersion, and it attempts not use drying aids to carry out drying.But aspect the redispersible of the polymer powder that makes, this method can not be entirely satisfactory equally.
The object of the invention provides a kind of method for preparing redispersible polymer powder in aqueous medium, it comprises, the aqueous polymer dispersion drying of drying aids will be added with, the polymer particles that this dispersion is scattered in the aqueous medium has the plus or minus surface charge, and this method does not have the various shortcoming of prior art method.
We have found that, this purpose is reached by the method that the present invention prepares redispersible polymer powder in aqueous medium, it comprises, the aqueous polymer dispersion drying of drying aids will be added with, the polymer particles that this dispersion is scattered in the aqueous medium has the plus or minus surface charge, wherein, in aqueous polymer dispersion to be dried, add polyelectrolyte as drying aids, the mode that this polyelectrolyte can be dissociated into polyion and counter ion is dissolved in this water base dispersion medium, and the electric charge of polyion is opposite with the surface charge polarity of dispersed polymeres particulate.
According to R  mpp Chemie Lexikon PI-S, Thieme Verlag, the 9th edition (1992) 3526 pages, " polyelectrolyte " means such base polymer, it has the group that can carry out ionic dissociation in aqueous medium, these groups can be the part of polymer chain or the substituting group on it, the group that can carry out ionic dissociation must be abundant, make that this polymkeric substance of disassociation form is solvable fully in water, promptly polyelectrolyte is dissociated into polyion and corresponding counter ion in aqueous medium.Polyelectrolyte mainly is divided into poly-acid and poly-alkali two classes.During disassociation, poly-acid loses proton and forms polyanion.The disassociation of poly-acid in aqueous medium can promote that form the aqueous solution of poly-hydrochlorate, that is, the common counter ion of polyanion is alkalimetal ion (Na by add alkali in aqueous medium +, K +, Li +, Rb +, Cs +), alkaline-earth metal ions is (as Ca 2+, Mg 2+), H +Ion, NH 4 +Ion and be different from NH 3The ammonium ion of amine.
Poly-alkali contains the ion precursor group, for example can combine last proton with acid-respons and the salifiable group of shape.Replacing protonated another kind of method is alkylation.The common counter ion of the polycation that forms is halogen ion (Cl -, Br -, I -), CO 3 2-, SO 4 2-, CH 3-OSO 3 -And CH 3-CH 2-OSO 3 -Polyion (positively charged ion and negatively charged ion) can be an inorganic polymer, also can be organic polymer.According to the present invention, be preferably based on the polyelectrolyte of organic polymer.The number-average molecular weight that is applicable to polyelectrolyte of the present invention for example is 1000-3 * 10 6Or higher or 2000-5 * 10 5, or 5000-10 5, or 7500-50000 or 10000-25000.
Polyelectrolyte and preparation thereof are as known in the art (for example referring to US-A3205187; US-A 4038233; EP-A246580; EP-A544158; EP-A629650; EP-A467103; Oosawa, Polyelektrolytes, New York:Marcel Dekker 1971; Deng)
Their solubleness in water under 25 ℃ and 1atm is general 〉=1g/100g water, often 〉=10g/100g water and usually 〉=25g/100g water.
The polyelectrolyte that the present invention uses can be with very easy mode, obtained by the monomer radical polymerization with at least one ethylenically unsaturated group.The most important thing is, treat that at least a portion of polymerization single polymerization monomer has the group that can carry out ionic dissociation in aqueous medium.Based on the total amount for the treatment of polymerization single polymerization monomer, have the amount of monomer that in aqueous medium, can carry out the group of ionic dissociation be generally at least 5wt%, often for 10wt% at least or at least 20wt% or at least 40wt%, as a rule for 60wt% at least, be generally 80wt% or 90-100wt% at least.
For polycation type polyelectrolyte, having the suitable monomer that can carry out the group of ionic dissociation in aqueous medium is the monomer with quaternary nitrogen atom (quaternary ammonium salt).Its example has:

Having the monomeric suitable comonomer that can carry out the group of ionic dissociation in aqueous medium is all other monomers with at least one ethylenically unsaturated group.They are known as nonionic monomers hereinafter.They for example are: alkene (C particularly 3-C 12Alkene), as ethene or propylene; Vinyl-arene is as vinylbenzene, α-toluene styrene, chloro styrene or Vinyl toluene; Vinyl alcohol and C 1-C 18The ester of alkane carboxylic acid is as vinyl-acetic ester, propionate, vinyl propionate, vinyl laurate and stearic acid vinyl ester; α, β-monoethylenically unsaturated monocarboxylic (preferred C 3-C 6, as vinylformic acid and methacrylic acid) and C 1-C 12, preferred C 1-C 8, C most preferably 1-C 4The methyl esters of the ester of alkanol, particularly vinylformic acid and methacrylic acid, ethyl ester, positive butyl ester, isobutyl ester, the tert-butyl ester and 2-ethylhexyl; Has the α of 6 carbon atoms at the most, β monoethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid (as fumaric acid, methylene-succinic acid and toxilic acid) and C 1-C 12, preferred C 1-C 8, C most preferably 1-C 4The diester of alkanol is as dimethyl maleate or n-butyl maleate; Above-mentioned α, the nitrile of β-monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and acid amides are as vinyl cyanide and acrylamide; And conjugation C 4-C 8Diolefine is as 1,3-butadiene and isoprene.But, also can use other comonomer, for example: vinylamide, as N-vinyl pyrrolidone, N-caprolactam, N-vinyl formamide, N-vinyl acetamide or N-methyl-N-vinyl acetamide; Hydroxyalkyl wherein has the acrylic acid hydroxy alkyl ester and the hydroxyalkyl methacrylate of 2-4 carbon atom, as (methyl) Hydroxyethyl acrylate or (methyl) Propylene glycol monoacrylate; Polyoxyethylene glycol (methyl) acrylate with 2-50 ethylene oxide unit; C 1-C 18The allyl ester of alkane carboxylic acid; And the N-vinyl lactam shown in the formula (IX)

The Raolical polymerizable of the polyelectrolyte that uses among preparation the present invention is preferably in the solution and carries out.The example of suitable solvent is water, methyl alcohol, ethanol, Virahol and other lower alcohol, also can use other organic solvent.Polyreaction usually with the miscible solvent of water in carry out.Based on the amount for the treatment of polymerization single polymerization monomer, polyreaction is generally carried out in the presence of the 0.1-2wt% radical initiator.Polymerization temperature is generally 40-100 ℃.
Radical initiator can use: superoxide, as hydrogen peroxide or peroxy-disulfuric acid and salt (alkali metal salts or ammonium salt) thereof, and organo-peroxide, as t-butyl hydroperoxide, cross two carbonic acid, two cyclohexyls, dibenzoyl peroxide, dilauroyl peroxide, cross the PIVALIC ACID CRUDE (25) tert-butyl ester and cross (2 ethyl hexanoic acid) tert-butyl ester.Certainly also can use azo-compound, as 2,2 '-azo two (2-methylbutyronitrile), 2, the two isobutyl dintrile, 2 of 2 '-azo, two (2-amidine propane) hydrochlorides and 2 of 2 '-azo, 2 '-azo two (2, the 4-methyl pentane nitrile) perhaps comprises the oxidation-reduction trigger system of superoxide and reductive agent such as formaldehyde sodium sulfoxylate.Polymerization temperature is depended in the selection of initiator.The molecular weight of polyelectrolyte can be controlled by adding molecular weight regulator by known way.Shi Yi conditioning agent is lower alcohol (it can be used as solvent simultaneously) especially.But, also can use other compound that is usually used in this purpose as molecular weight regulator, for example: sulphur compound, as 2 mercapto ethanol, butyl sulfhydryl, lauryl mercaptan, Thiovanic acid, thiol-acetic acid or thiolactic acid; Perhaps halogen compound is as tetracol phenixin.Generally speaking, treat that the polymeric monomer is added in the polymerization reactor continuously with the solution form in the solvent usually, feed rate is the conversion rate of polyreaction.Polyelectrolyte solution by drying forms can separate polyelectrolyte.But, in the methods of the invention, also can directly use the polyelectrolyte solution that obtains.
In the methods of the invention, importantly to avoid the cohesion of polymeric dispersions, can condense usually when in the aqueous polymer dispersion of anionic (cationic) stabilization, adding polycation type (polyanion type) polyelectrolyte.This can take following measure to be avoided cohesion, not that polyelectrolyte or its solution stirring are added in the aqueous polymer dispersion, but conversely aqueous polymer dispersion is stirred in the solution that is added to polyelectrolyte (referring to US-A5045576, US-A4038233, US-A3205187 and EP-A305039).Generally speaking, need the polyion total amount of electric charge of polyelectrolyte be higher than in and the required quantity of electric charge of polymer particles all surfaces electric charge (opposite polarity of this surface charge and polyion) in the aqueous polymer dispersion.
The inventor's electrophoresis studies show that; the polyanion of polyelectrolyte solution (polycation) by electrostatic adhesion on cationic (anionic) polymer particles surface; and under the excessive situation of polyion total amount of electric charge; make the reversing of polymer particles surface charge; promptly; opposite with the conventional drying auxiliary agent of prior art; in the methods of the invention; the disperse phase stage that can be in aqueous medium; just on the polymer particles of anionic (cationic) stabilization, form another kind of polycation (polyanion) type protective layer; this protective layer prevents to form irreversible secondary granule in the drying process of aqueous polymer dispersion; and particularly because their water dissolvable makes polymer powder have the perfect redispersible of being close in aqueous medium.Repeatedly change polarity successively by the polyion that uses the ionic charge alternating polarity to change, can form the very big protective layer of variation in thickness scope in a suitable manner.Adopt the method (at the finely divided insoluble inorganics particulate of polymer particles surface applied) of JP-A7/53728 at last, in final drying, can obtain in aqueous medium, having excellent redispersible, the polymer powder of anti stick again simultaneously.
By electrophoresis research, the variation of monitoring polymer microparticle surfaces charge polarity in detail.Based on the dispersive polymkeric substance, the add-on of polyelectrolyte makes the charge polarity on polymer particles surface change when just reaching its maximum value, and redispersible is best.
The present invention adopts spray-drying process to come drying of aqueous polymer dispersions usually, the temperature in T of hot blast IBe 100-200 ℃, preferred 120-160 ℃, the temperature out T of hot blast oBe 30-90 ℃, preferred 50-70 ℃.The spraying of aqueous polymer dispersion in hot blast for example can be adopted single mouth shower nozzle or spray broom or rotating disk.Usually use cyclopneumatic separator or filter that polymer powder is separated.The aqueous polymer dispersion of spraying and hot gas flow are preferably with the parallel mode charging.
For this reason, one embodiment of this invention comprises uses these polyelectrolyte to make drying aids, be mixed with the polymerized unit of nonionic monomers in this polyelectrolyte, the second-order transition temperature of the high-molecular weight homopolymer of this nonionic monomers (neutral temperature, ASTM D3418-82) is higher than 50 ℃.
As previously mentioned, the relative molecular weight that is used for the present invention's polyelectrolyte can change in wide range.It is its K value in 25 ℃ the aqueous solution that of the molecular-weight average of polyelectrolyte measures.The K value is the relative viscosity value of measuring according to the method that is similar to DIN53726.Herein, it based on the velocity of flow of neat solvent and the velocity of flow that contains the solution of a certain amount of polyelectrolyte (also referring to Cellulose chemie, 13 (1932), 58-64, and Kirk-Othmer, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, Vol.23, the 967-968 page or leaf).High K value is corresponding to high molecular-weight average.
According to the present invention, suitable polyelectrolyte is 0.1wt% at polyelectrolyte content, be that K value in the solution of solvent is 20-350, preferred 30-200 with the NaCl aqueous solution of 0.5M.Other polyelectrolyte that is suitable for is 1%wt at polyelectrolyte content, be that K value in the solution of solvent is 15-150, preferred 25-120 with water.
An advantage of the inventive method is that the polymer particles surface mainly is an electrostatic interaction with the avidity of polyion.Therefore, the chemical constitution of the inventive method and dispersed polymeres is irrelevant.Generally speaking; before adding polyelectrolyte; be used for the stabilization of polymers water dispersion disperse phase charged particle carrier and dispersive polymkeric substance not only physical connection but also chemistry to be connected be favourable (for example, being grafted on positively charged ion or the cationic protective colloid and the chemistry connection by free radical water emulsion polymerization).
Another advantage of the inventive method is that the particle diameter of the polyelectrolyte of adding needn't mate with the particle diameter of dispersive polymer particles in the aqueous polymer dispersion.It is this aqueous polymer dispersion 25 ℃ transmittance (the LT value is used white light, and light path is 2.5cm, and the solid content of aqueous polymer dispersion is diluted to 0.01wt%, measures with respect to pure water) that of polymer particles median size measures.
On the principle, the inventive method promptly can be used for the primary polymer water-dispersion of dry ionic stabilization, secondary polymerization thing water dispersion that again can dry ionic stabilization.
The inventive method be used for dry its mould second-order transition temperature≤50 ℃ or≤25 ℃ or≤0 ℃ aqueous polymer dispersion particularly advantageous.The second-order transition temperature of dispersive polymkeric substance is general 〉=-60 ℃ or 〉=-40 ℃ or 〉=-20 ℃.
This means that the inventive method is applicable to dry following aqueous polymer dispersion, its dispersive polymkeric substance is made of following monomer radical polymerization:
-70-100wt% vinylformic acid and/or methacrylic acid and C 1-C 12The ester of alkanol and/or vinylbenzene, perhaps
-70-100wt% vinylbenzene and/or divinyl, perhaps
