Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing solvent-free polyacrylic acid aqueous dispersion containing hydroxyl functional groups, which comprises the following steps: polymerizing one or more monomers in the presence of reactive oligomer by initiator to obtain polyacrylic copolymer, adding neutralizer for neutralization, and dispersing in water. The reactive oligomer used in the invention only exists as a diluent in the preparation process of the polyacrylic acid aqueous dispersion, does not participate in any reaction, and can react with a curing agent when matched with the curing agent for use. The invention thus enables a solvent-free preparation process of polyacrylic dispersions (oligomers as reaction medium instead of organic solvents) without affecting the properties of the polyacrylic dispersions in the coating.

Description

Preparation method and application of solvent-free polyacrylic acid aqueous dispersion
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of coatings, and relates to a preparation method of a solvent-free polyacrylic acid aqueous dispersion containing a hydroxyl functional group, the obtained polyacrylic acid aqueous dispersion and application thereof.
Background
One of the most commonly used resins for the preparation of waterborne coatings is an aqueous dispersion of hydroxyl-containing polyacrylic acid. In the preparation of the hydroxyl group-containing polyacrylic acid aqueous dispersion, it is usually necessary to prepare a hydroxyl group-containing polypropylene resin first. Specifically, such a preparation process generally includes providing a certain amount of organic solvent (such as propylene glycol butyl ether, etc.), adding into a reaction kettle, stirring and heating to a desired temperature, adding a mixed solution of acrylic monomers and a part of initiator, and finally adding organic amine for neutralization. Due to the synthesis and dispersion processes required, and to reduce viscosity, these systems require the addition of certain organic solvents, which generate VOCs that are harmful to the environment and human body.
In addition, in the subsequent process of removing the organic solvent in the dispersion, the solvent may be removed by distillation under reduced pressure by heating. Although this allows the solvent to be recovered to some extent, much energy is consumed, and the recovered solvent component is complicated and cannot be reused.
For example, U.S. Pat. No. 5,5750613 discloses a process which makes it possible to use polyethers containing hydroxyl functions in the polymerization in place of, in whole or in part, organic solvents. During subsequent crosslinking, the hydroxyl functional polyether can react with the blocked isocyanate curing agent to form urethane, which is not effective in reducing VOC. And hydroxyl-containing polyethers as diluents tend to produce products of poor stability.
For another example, chinese patent application publication No. CN1898280A discloses a method for preparing copolymer dispersions, in which lactone and polyol with small molecular weight are combined as reactive diluents to obtain aqueous copolymer dispersions based on hydroxy-functional copolymers with low solvent content. In this method, a small amount of other organic solvents is used as needed, and zero solvent cannot be realized.
As another example, chinese patent application publication No. CN1914237A discloses aqueous copolymer dispersions based on hydroxy-functional copolymers with low solvent content and giving the films thereof a high level of stability. The process uses a compound of formula I as a reaction medium, with a small amount of additional organic solvent. The compounds of formula I have a hydroxyl function and a tertiary carbon group, n ranges from 1 to 4, i.e. it has 1 to 4 hydroxyl groups. In the process of preparing the polyacrylic acid copolymer, the compound exists as a diluent, and tertiary carbon groups can play a role in viscosity reduction and can participate in reaction when being matched with a curing agent for use. When n is 1 in formula I, it can only participate in the reaction and does not form crosslinks, which can affect the properties of the final paint film. In this method, when a component having both a hydroxyl functional group and a tertiary carbon group is used as a diluent, an additional organic solvent is used as needed, and zero solvent cannot be realized.
Figure BDA0003297532390000021
For example, chinese patent application publication No. CN103998472A discloses that glycidyl ester of aliphatic carboxylic acid is introduced as a reactive diluent into a reaction system, and simultaneously an epoxy group reacts with a carboxyl group-containing monomer to intervene in a polymer chain in the course of radical polymerization. However, as the reaction proceeds, the content of the glycidyl ester of the free aliphatic carboxylic acid gradually decreases and the diluent effect gradually decreases.
There are also methods in the prior art that use a reduction in the molecular weight of a hydroxyl-containing polyacrylic resin to increase the solids content of the resin, thereby achieving an effect approaching that of a solvent-free system. While methods of reducing the molecular weight include increasing the amount of initiator, using chain transfer agents, or increasing the reaction temperature. Taking the method of increasing the reaction temperature as an example, the highest reaction temperature is usually determined by the boiling point of the organic solvent, and although the method can be applied under pressure, the method has higher requirements on hardware and further increases the cost.
In view of the above, there is a need in the art to develop hydroxyl-containing polyacrylic acid dispersions that avoid the use of organic solvents in the preparation process, while not interfering with the use of the resin in coatings.

The polyacrylic acid aqueous dispersion containing the hydroxyl functional group can be matched with a curing agent to be applied to aqueous coatings.

Compared with the prior art, the technical scheme provided by the invention has the following advantages:
1. in the preparation process of the polyacrylic acid aqueous dispersion, the reactive oligomer is used for replacing an organic solvent to obtain a solvent-free polyacrylic acid aqueous dispersion;
2. the reactive oligomer used in the invention only exists as a diluent in the preparation process of the polyacrylic acid aqueous dispersion, can not be polymerized by free radicals, and then participates in the reaction when being matched with a curing agent for use. Therefore, the invention realizes the solvent-free preparation process of the polyacrylic acid dispersoid, namely, oligomer is used as a reaction medium to replace an organic solvent, and the performance of the polyacrylic acid dispersoid in the coating is not influenced;
3. since the deliberately introduced volatile organic solvent content of the aqueous polyacrylic acid dispersion containing a hydroxyl functional group of the present invention is 0, the VOC content of the aqueous coating composition can be greatly reduced with little effect on the constructors.
It should be noted that: in the present invention, the VOC content actually measured is not always 0, because a small amount of residual solvent is carried into the raw material due to the raw material preparation process, or a small amount of volatile organic compounds is generated by the reaction of the raw material under the production conditions, and neither of these is considered as a volatile organic solvent intentionally introduced.
