Description

Transparent flexible aerogel for curved glass and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of aerogel manufacturing, in particular to a transparent flexible aerogel for curved glass and a preparation method thereof, and C08G 77/14.
Background
Aerogel is a porous material with a typical three-dimensional continuous nano structure, has the advantages of low heat conductivity coefficient, low density, high porosity, low refraction, high echo impedance and the like, and has very broad prospects in the fields of energy-saving buildings, electronics, communication, aerospace and the like.
The conventional method for preparing the polysiloxane aerogel generally adopts an acidic environment to hydrolyze polysiloxane, then utilizes an alkaline environment to perform polycondensation, and finally prepares the aerogel through normal pressure drying or supercritical drying; however, the light transmittance and flexibility of the aerogel prepared by the methods are very poor, which severely limits the application of the aerogel. At present, some reports on the preparation of flexible light-transmitting aerogel by using bridging siloxane as a raw material are provided, but the preparation process is complex, the required bridging siloxane has high cost, and industrialization is difficult. In addition, the problem that the aerogel has poor flexibility, low mechanical strength and the like is aggravated by the collapse phenomenon of the aerogel structure caused by capillary force in the later drying process. The aerogel prepared by the conventional method has insufficient hydrophobic property, complex and complicated surface hydrophobic modification operation is needed, and the production efficiency is low.
Chinese patent CN 110511425a discloses a flexible polysiloxane aerogel and a preparation method thereof, wherein the aerogel skeleton contains a large number of non-hydrolytic alkyl groups, and the alkyl groups generate repulsive force during compression to endow the aerogel with excellent flexibility; however, the prepared aerogel is opaque, and limits the application range. Chinese patent CN 114655960a discloses a method for preparing aerogel, which comprises polymerizing different siloxane precursors to form sol, condensing with reinforcing agent to form oligomer or siloxane chain with specific structure such as chain, trapezoid, cage or semi-cage, and endowing wet gel skeleton with high mechanical strength and special pore surface chemical property, and strictly controlling surface drying process to avoid collapse of aerogel structure; however, the prepared aerogel is still low in light transmittance, heat insulation and flexibility.
Therefore, the polysiloxane aerogel with high light transmittance, good heat insulation property, strong flexibility, excellent hydrophobicity and stable structure and performance is very important to prepare, and the application range of the aerogel can be greatly widened.

Further, the molar ratio of the substance A to the substance B is (0.3-1.5): 1.
according to the application, the alkali-catalyzed siloxane is adopted to carry out hydrolysis and polycondensation reaction, silicon hydroxyl groups generated after the hydrolysis of adjacent siloxane are bonded with each other and extend to a three-dimensional direction to form a larger network crosslinking structure, but the flexibility of the crosslinking structure is not ideal, based on the alkali-catalyzed siloxane, substances A and B with different functionalities are further compounded to participate in the skeleton structure of the aerogel together, and the proper crosslinking strength and density are generated by controlling the silicon-oxygen bond in polysiloxane, so that the flexibility of the aerogel is improved, and most importantly, the excellent stability of the network structure of the aerogel is ensured, and pore collapse cannot be generated in the drying process; therefore, the amount of siloxane needs to be strictly controlled, when the amount of the substance A is too high, the crosslinking effect is too weak, even gel is not formed, when the amount of the substance B is too high, the flexibility of the gel is obviously insufficient, and only the flexibility and the stability of the framework structure of the substance A and the substance B can be considered under a specific molar ratio.
Preferably, the molar ratio of substance a to substance B is (0.33-1.33): 1.
further, the nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent is selected from any one or a combination of a plurality of N, N-dimethylformamide, N-dimethylacetamide, N-dimethylacrylamide, N-methylpyrrolidone and hexamethylphosphoric triamide.
The application emphasizes that the nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent participates in the sol-gel process of the siloxane, the nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent can be used as a receptor or an implementation body of a hydrogen bond due to the existence of a strong electronegative N atom of the nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent, and has a hydrogen bond effect with silicon hydroxyl on the surface of the sol of the siloxane, so that the nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent covers the surface of sol particles to generate a space shielding effect, prevent further collision and combination among the sol particles, ensure that the particle size of the gel particles is smaller, and promote the transparency of the aerogel; in addition, the addition of the nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent increases the gel network, improves the distribution uniformity of the gel network, inhibits the phenomenon that the structure is damaged due to stress in the gel structure, and increases the flexibility of the aerogel; however, the nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent occupying the gel pore canal is removed in the later drying process, and then larger pores remain, if the dosage is too high, more macroporous pores exist in the aerogel network structure and the non-uniformity of the pore diameter distribution of the aerogel network is increased, which in turn leads to the reduction of light transmittance.
Preferably, the nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent is selected from any one of N, N-dimethylformamide, N-dimethylacetamide and hexamethylphosphoric triamide.
Further, the molar ratio of the total amount of the substance A and the substance B, the nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent and water is (1 to 2.5): (6-12): (3-8).

preferably, in the preparation method, weak base is added to adjust the pH value to 8.5-9.5 for catalysis for 8-12h, and organic strong base is added to adjust the pH value to 12.5-14 for catalysis for 20-30min.
Under alkaline conditions, siloxane is hydrolyzed and then rapidly condensed to generate compact colloid particles, and the particles are mutually connected to form a reticular gel; the different alkaline environments have a significant effect on the light transmission and flexibility of the aerogel of the present application: when the alkalinity is too strong, the polycondensation speed of the siloxane is very high in a short time, the particle size of the produced aerogel particles is large and the distribution is uneven, the disordered growth of the siloxane bonds in the three-dimensional space greatly reduces or even disappears the holes of the aerogel, the prepared aerogel is basically opaque, and more cracks exist on the surface of the aerogel after drying; when the alkalinity is too low, the aerogel preparation efficiency is low, and the surface of the aerogel contains a plurality of silicon hydroxyl groups, so that the aerogel is subjected to polycondensation again in the drying process, and dry shrinkage and large cracks are generated; therefore, there is also a need to provide sufficient crosslinking time for the hydrolyzed silicone to undergo hydrolysis and polycondensation reactions to a suitable degree to increase hydrogel flexibility and light transmittance. The application strictly limits the alkaline catalytic environment, and can control the aerogel particles to be finer and the pore size distribution to be denser only by comprehensively using two-stage alkali reaction and under the specific catalytic time, so that the light transmittance and the flexibility of the aerogel can be optimized.
Further, the weak base is at least one selected from ammonia water, urea, pyridine, triethanolamine, ethanolamine and diethanolamine.
Preferably, the weak base is selected from any one of ammonia water, urea and pyridine, and more preferably ammonia water.
Further, the organic strong base adopts quaternary ammonium base and derivatives thereof, including but not limited to one or a combination of a plurality of tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide, tetraethyl ammonium hydroxide, tetrapropyl ammonium hydroxide, tetrabutyl ammonium hydroxide, tetrahexyl ammonium hydroxide, tetraoctyl ammonium hydroxide, tetradecyl ammonium hydroxide, bisdodecyl dimethyl ammonium hydroxide and hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium hydroxide choline.
Further, the organic strong base is at least one selected from tetramethylammonium hydroxide, tetraethylammonium hydroxide and tetrapropylammonium hydroxide.
Further, the drying mode adopts normal pressure drying or supercritical drying.
Preferably, the drying mode is supercritical drying.
Further, supercritical carbon dioxide is adopted for supercritical drying, the drying reaction temperature is 45-55 ℃, the pressure is 10-15MPa, and the heat preservation and pressure maintaining time is 5-8h.

Comparative example 1 and examples 4-5 show that: the relatively low amount of nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent in example 4 and the high water content in example 5, both of which result in an aerogel having poorer light transmittance and softness performance than example 1, may be due to: the nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent is small in amount, the siloxane (the substance A and the substance B) is relatively large in amount, the nitrogen-containing aprotic solvent cannot well shield the space of sol particles generated by prepolymerization, the polymerized network structure of the sol particles is large, the pore diameter of the aerogel is increased due to the increase of the particle size of the gel particles, and finally the light transmittance of the aerogel is reduced; the increased water content in example 5 resulted in excessive capillary stress due to solution tension in the aerogel pores during post-drying, directly resulting in collapse of the aerogel structure and cracking, and reduced performance of the aerogel.
Comparative example 1 and examples 6 to 7, comparative examples 3 to 4, as follows: with the increase of the dosage of the substance A, the flexibility of the aerogel is increased, but gel is not generated even when the dosage of the substance A is too high, and the flexibility of the gel is obviously reduced when the dosage of the substance B is too high; probably because: the Si-O chain ends existing in the substance A are fewer, so that the crosslinking degree of the silica bonds in the prepared aerogel framework can be reduced, but the addition amount of the substance A and the substance B is strictly regulated within a specified range so as to realize the optimal flexibility and the optimal light transmittance of the aerogel.
Comparative example 1 and examples 8-9 show that: the vinyl groups in example 8 may participate in the cross-linked skeleton structure of the siloxane, which increases the non-uniformity of the skeleton network distribution, thus resulting in reduced light transmittance and flexibility of the aerogel, and the other part of alkenyl groups not participating in bonding increases the attraction of the gel skeleton to water, increases the difficulty of the post-drying process, and reduces the hydrophobicity of the aerogel; the steric hindrance caused by the longer octyl group of the molecular chain in example 9 may affect the polycondensation reaction of the substance a and the substance B, and the steric effect decreases the uniformity of the polycondensation reaction and the molecular arrangement state of the aerogel skeleton structure, while the hydrophobicity of the aerogel increases, but other properties decrease instead.
Comparative example 1 and example 10 show that: in example 10, the organic weak base triethanolamine was used, but all the properties of the aerogel were slightly reduced, probably because of molecular action between the triethanolamine and the substances a and B, which increased the viscosity with the aerogel network skeleton, in which case the degree of matching between the capillary stress generated when the solvent (solution) in the system volatilized and the elastic modulus of the gel skeleton was reduced, resulting in collapse of part of the pores during drying, and thus poor overall performance of the aerogel.
Comparative example 1 and examples 11 to 12, comparative example 2, as follows: only by adopting weak base and strong base to gradually react and controlling the environmental alkalinity and the reaction time, the flexibility and the light transmittance of the aerogel can be better improved, when the alkalinity is insufficient, the polysiloxane is difficult to fully extend the network skeleton, and the hydrolysis and polycondensation reaction speeds of the polysiloxane are too different. When the alkalinity is too high, the reaction rate is too high, which results in a decrease in uniformity of the produced aerogel, thereby affecting the performance.
Comparative example 1 and example 13 show that: when the molecular chain of the alkyl group in the organic base is too long, although the polycondensation of the silicon hydroxyl group can be more effectively inhibited, the polymerization reaction of the siloxane is also influenced, so that the polymerization reaction is not uniformly carried out in the three-dimensional direction, and the aerogel has relatively weak performance.
Comparative example 1 and example 14 show that: excessive drying pressure can produce some compression on the pores of the aerogel, possibly resulting in breaking the originally intended uniform pore size distribution, resulting in a decrease in the flexibility and light transmittance of the aerogel.
Comparative example 1 and example 15 show that: n-methylpyrrolidone is relatively weak in polarity, and shows a slightly lower protective effect on the siloxane prepolymer, and a slight increase in the aerogel particle size results in a decrease in light transmittance.
Comparative example 1 and comparative example 1 show that: the protic solvent inhibits the hydrolysis of the polysiloxane, but hydrogen bonds generated by the protic solvent cannot better inhibit the polycondensation of the silicon hydroxyl groups, and the aerogel particle size is increased, and the light transmittance, the flexibility and the like are reduced.
