Description

Acrylic acid water-absorbent resin with low reverse osmosis and low extractable content and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of chemical high polymer materials, and in particular relates to an acrylic acid water-absorbent resin with low reverse osmosis and low extractable content and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The super absorbent resin (SAP) is a water-absorbing material capable of absorbing hundreds or thousands of times of pure water, has an excellent water-retaining function, and is widely applied to the sanitary industries such as paper diapers, sanitary napkins and the like, and the industrial and agricultural water-proof fields such as agriculture and forestry water retention, building construction, cable water blocking and the like. After the high water absorption resin absorbs water, the colloid expands to form gel, and a layer of water film is formed on the surface of the gel, and the water film exists in a free state to form reverse osmosis. After a large amount of water is absorbed by the high water absorption resin, the gel strength is obviously reduced, and part of water is separated out under the condition of compression, so that the water locking capacity is reduced, the reverse osmosis is increased, and the downstream application is influenced.
Taking a communication optical cable as an example, winding a water blocking tape around the optical cable, taking non-woven fabrics as a base tape for the water blocking tape, and uniformly distributing the super absorbent resin and the filler. After the water blocking tape absorbs water, if the reverse osmosis performance is poor, absorbed water can still slowly permeate into the optical cable to corrode metal and optical fibers, so that the hydrogen loss, wire breakage and insulation performance are reduced, and the signal transmission is affected. The main factor determining the reverse osmosis performance of the water-blocking tape is the reverse osmosis performance of the super absorbent resin, which is determined by the super absorbent resin added thereto. Meanwhile, the content of the extractables of the high water-absorbing resin is higher, and after the water-blocking tape absorbs moisture, the extractables can be slowly separated out along with the moisture and enter the optical cable, so that the optical cable is damaged.
Chinese patent publication No. CN113817185A relates to a preparation method of low-reverse osmosis super absorbent resin, and the purpose of low-reverse osmosis is achieved by adding a large amount of maleic acid in the polymerization process and neutralizing after polymerization. The steric hindrance effect of maleic acid is large and the reactivity is low. If the addition amount is large in the polymerization process, the free radical polymerization efficiency is seriously affected, so that a large amount of maleic acid remains in the later stage of the reaction, the molecular structure is inconsistent, the product performance is affected, and the repeatability is poor. In addition, the maleic acid has high carboxyl content and higher hydrophilicity than acrylic acid, and after the super absorbent resin is formed, the content of extractables is higher, the product is severely hydrolyzed, and the downstream application is influenced.
The method for reducing the extractables content is generally to increase the amount of crosslinking agent used in the polymerization process, and to increase the molecular weight by increasing the crosslinking density. This in turn leads to a decrease in the absorption capacity of the superabsorbent resin, further leading to a higher reverse osmosis.

A preparation method of acrylic acid water-absorbent resin with low reverse osmosis and low extractable matter content is characterized in that polyurethane prepolymer is added in the polymerization process of the acrylic acid water-absorbent resin to serve as a performance accelerator, after the polyurethane prepolymer is added, NCO at two ends of the polyurethane prepolymer is subjected to chain extension with water at high temperature to form polyurethane macromolecules and a microstructure, and the carbon-carbon macromolecule chains and the polyurethane macromolecule chains form an interpenetrating network structure in the acrylic acid/sodium polymerization process. After the high water absorption resin swells to form gel, the polyurethane macromolecular chain plays a role of framework support in the gel, so that the gel strength is improved, and reverse osmosis is prevented. If the addition amount of the polyurethane prepolymer is small, the skeleton support in the gel formed by the high water absorption resin is small, and the influence on reverse osmosis is small. If the addition amount is too large, the water absorption performance of the super absorbent resin is affected, and reverse osmosis is too large.
Meanwhile, after the interpenetrating network is formed by the molecular chains of the super absorbent resin and the polyurethane molecular chains, the low molecular weight part in the super absorbent resin is affected by the winding of the polyurethane molecular chains, so that the difficulty of free out of the gel network of the super absorbent resin is increased, and the extractable matter content of the super absorbent resin is reduced.

Taking 500g of primary acrylic acid water-absorbent resin powder, uniformly spraying 40g of surface cross-linking agent on the surface, preparing the surface cross-linking agent by mass ratio of ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether to aluminum sulfate to ethylene glycol to water=3:8:18:50, finally drying in a drying oven at 140 ℃ for 50min to obtain an acrylic acid water-absorbent resin product, and grinding and screening to obtain a 10-50 mu m high water-absorbent resin product.
Table 1 Properties of the super absorbent resin products in examples and comparative examples
As can be seen from Table 1, in comparative example 3, in which the technique of the present invention was not employed, the reverse osmosis amount and extractables were significantly higher than those of examples 1, 2 and 3, although the conventional absorption properties such as the liquid absorption rate, the centrifugal retention, the pressurized absorption, the liquid absorption rate and the like were not greatly different. In examples 1, 2 and 3, the polyurethane prepolymer is added as a performance promoter, the conventional absorption performance of the resin is not obviously changed, but the reverse osmosis and the extractable content are obviously improved, which shows that the polyurethane macromolecules play a role of framework support in a gel network formed by the high water absorbent resin, and the precipitation of low molecular weight polyacrylate can be prevented to a certain extent. In comparative example 1, the polyurethane prepolymer is added as a performance promoter, the addition amount is small, the skeleton supporting effect of the polyurethane macromolecule is weak, the reverse osmosis improving effect is not obvious, and meanwhile, the extractable content is reduced to a certain extent, but a certain difference is still provided compared with examples 1 and 2. In comparative example 2, the polyurethane prepolymer was added as a performance accelerator in a large amount, which had a certain influence on the conventional absorption performance and had a tendency to increase reverse osmosis. It can be seen that the improvement of the reverse osmosis effect shows a parabolic trend of influence on the extractables content and a linear trend of influence on the reverse osmosis effect by using the polyurethane prepolymer as a performance promoter. The performance improvement effect is best when the addition amount is 1.2-1.4%.
Those skilled in the art will appreciate that certain modifications and adaptations of the invention are possible and can be made under the teaching of the present specification. Such modifications and adaptations are intended to be within the scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims.
