Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Zündholzreibflächen, indem man zunächst aus rotem Phosphor, Reibmitteln, wie z. B. Glasmehl oder Sand, Bindemitteln in Form von wäßrigen Harnstoff-Formaldehyd- oder Melamin-Formaldehyd-Kondensaten sowie gegebenenfalls Härtern, wie z. B. Ammoniumchlorid, Füllstoffen, wie z. B. Fe203, Mn02, Sb2S3 oder zusätzlichem Wasser zur Regulierung der Viskosität der Mischung eine wäßrige Maische bereitet. Mit dieser Maische beschichtet man dann die jeweilige Reibflächenunterlage, welche aus Papier, Holz, Karton usw. bestehen kann und behandelt gegebenenfalls die erhaltene Fläche anschließend mit Wärme, wobei die beschichteten Flächen getrocknet und die darin enthaltenen Bindemittel kondensiert und gehärtet werden.The present invention relates to a method for the production of matchstick surfaces by first of red phosphorus, abrasives, such as. As glass powder or sand, binders in the form of aqueous urea-formaldehyde or melamine-formaldehyde condensates and optionally hardeners, such as. B. ammonium chloride, fillers such. B. Fe 2 0 3 , Mn0 2 , Sb 2 S 3 or additional water to regulate the viscosity of the mixture prepares an aqueous mash. This mash is then used to coat the respective friction surface underlay, which can consist of paper, wood, cardboard, etc., and if necessary, the surface obtained is subsequently treated with heat, the coated surfaces being dried and the binders contained therein being condensed and hardened.

Das Auftragen der Maischen auf die Reibflächenunterlagen kann beispielsweise mit Pinseln oder mit Druckmaschinen erfolgen.The mashes can be applied to the friction surface supports, for example, with brushes or with printing machines.

Die Maischen sollen dünn und streichfähig sein, damit eine gleichmäßig dünne Verteilung der Maische auf der Unterlage gewährleistet ist. Zu dicke Auflagen neigen nach dem Austrocknen zum Abbröckeln und Reißen.The mashes should be thin and spreadable so that an evenly thin distribution of the mash on the surface is guaranteed. Pads that are too thick tend to crumble and tear after drying.

Früher, und z. T. auch noch heute, verwandte man als Bindemittel Haut- oder Knochenleim oder Gummi arabicum, gegebenenfalls in Verbindung mit Gummi traganth.Earlier, and e.g. T. still today, skin or bone glue or gum arabic were used as binders, possibly in combination with gum tragacanth.

Ein gravierender Nachteil der damit hergestellten Reibflächen ist ihre Unbeständigkeit gegen Feuchtigkeit, insbesondere unter tropischen Bedingungen, wobei gleichzeitig ein Bakterienbefall zusätzlich zur Zerstörung der Reibflächen beitragen kann.A serious disadvantage of the friction surfaces produced with them is their resistance to moisture, in particular under tropical conditions, and at the same time bacterial attack can additionally destroy the friction surfaces.

Aus diesem Grunde sind schon häufig Versuche unternommen worden, Bindemittel auf Basis von Harnstoff- bzw. Melamin-Formaldehydharzen oder Polyvinylchloriddispersionen zu verwenden. Dabei erwiesen sich Formulierungen auf PVC-Basis zwar als gut aber auch als sehr teuer.For this reason, attempts have often been made to use binders based on urea or melamine-formaldehyde resins or polyvinyl chloride dispersions. Formulations based on PVC proved to be good but also very expensive.

Die Harnstoff- oder Melaminharze zeigten sich zwar weitgehend resistent gegen bakteriellen Befall, neigten aber zur Ausbildung spröder, brüchiger Anstrichflächen. Außerdem ist in diesen Fällen die Durchdringung der Reibflächen durch Feuchtigkeit oder Wasser nicht aufgehoben, sondern äußerstenfalls nur gehemmt.The urea or melamine resins were largely resistant to bacterial attack, but tended to form brittle, brittle paint surfaces. In addition, the penetration of the friction surfaces by moisture or water is not eliminated in these cases, but at most is only inhibited.

Hinzu kam, daß die Aushärtung dieser Harze nicht in jedem Falle in der gleichen-Weise erfolgte, und daß, in Abhängigkeit vom jeweils eingesetzten roten Phosphor, sehr häufig klebrige oder brüchige Reibflächen entstanden.In addition, these resins were not cured in the same way in every case, and, depending on the red phosphorus used, very often sticky or brittle friction surfaces were formed.

Überraschenderweise wurde nun gefunden, daß sich bei Verwendung von rotem Phosphor in Verbindung mit Harnstoff-Formaldehyd- oder Melamin-Formaldehyd-Kondensaten als Bindemittel, unabhängig von der Herkunft des Phosphors gleichgleibend gute Reibflächen herstellen lassen, wenn man der wäßrigen Maische der Ausgangsprodukte, bezogen auf den Feststoffgehalt der Harnstoff- bzw. Melamin-Formaldehyd-Kondensate, als Vernetzer 5 bis 20 Gew.-%, vorzugsweise 10 bis 15 Gew.-%, eines aminharzvernetzenden Polyesters oder eines durch Copolymerisation von Acryl-und/oder Methacrylester mit Vinylacetat im Gewichtsverhältnis 9:1 1 bis 1:9 hergestelltes Copolymerisat, das, bezogen auf den monomeren Esteranteil, auch bis zu 20 Gew.-% Acryl- und/oder Methacrylsäure einpolymerisiert enthalten kann, zusetzt. Zweckmäßigerweise wird der Polyester in Form einer wäßrigen Lösung, das Copolymerisat in Form einer wäßrigen Dispersion oder einer wäßrig-alkoholischen Lösung zugesetzt, wobei die angegebenen Gewichtsprozente für den Zusatz sich auf den Feststoffgehalt der Harnstoff- bzw. Melamin-Formaldehyd-Kondensate und auf den Feststoffgehalt des Vernetzers beziehen. Dann stellt man den pH-Wert der erhaltenen Mischung durch Zugabe einer wäßrigen Lösung von Ammoniak, organischen Aminen oder einer Mineralsäure, insbesondere von Phosphorsäure, im Falle der Verwendung des Copolymerisats auf Werte zwischen 6,5 und 8,0, vorzugsweise von 7 bis 7,5, und im Falle der Verwendung des Polyesters auf Werte von 7 bis 11, vorzugsweise 9,2 bis 9,6, ein, bevor man mit der Mischung die Reibflächenunterlage beschichtet.Surprisingly, it has now been found that when using red phosphorus in conjunction with urea-formaldehyde or melamine-formaldehyde condensates as binders, irrespective of the origin of the phosphorus, uniformly good friction surfaces can be produced if the aqueous mash of the starting products is based on the solids content of the urea or melamine-formaldehyde condensates, as a crosslinking agent 5 to 20% by weight, preferably 10 to 15% by weight, of an amine resin-crosslinking polyester or by copolymerization of acrylic and / or methacrylic ester with vinyl acetate in a weight ratio 9: 1 1 to 1: 9 copolymer which, based on the monomeric ester fraction, can also contain up to 20% by weight of acrylic and / or methacrylic acid in copolymerized form. The polyester is expediently added in the form of an aqueous solution, the copolymer in the form of an aqueous dispersion or an aqueous-alcoholic solution, the weight percentages given for the addition being based on the solids content of the urea or melamine-formaldehyde condensates and on the solids content of the crosslinker. The pH of the mixture obtained is then adjusted to between 6.5 and 8.0, preferably from 7 to 7, by adding an aqueous solution of ammonia, organic amines or a mineral acid, in particular phosphoric acid, if the copolymer is used , 5, and in the case of using the polyester to values of 7 to 11, preferably 9.2 to 9.6, before coating the friction surface underlay with the mixture.

Falls für die pH-Wert-Einstellung organische Amine verwendet werden, werden niedrigsiedende organische Amine wie z. B. Trimethylamin, Triäthylamin, vorzugsweise jedoch Dimethyläthanolamin, verwendet.If organic amines are used for pH adjustment, low-boiling organic amines such as. B. trimethylamine, triethylamine, but preferably dimethylethanolamine used.

Zur Trocknung und/oder Aushärtung können die Flächen bei etwa 90 bis 130°C ca. 5 Minuten lang getempert werden. Die erhaltenen Reibflächen sind selbst in dicker Schicht elastisch biegsam und haften gut auf Unterlagen aus Holz, Papier, Karton usw. Für die Anwendung auf Kunststoffflächen können gegebenenfalls zusätzliche Haftvermittler eingearbeitet werden. Die Zündfähigkeit ist mit »sehr gut« zu bezeichnen und wird durch Feuchtigkeit und Wasser nur wenig reduziert.For drying and / or curing, the surfaces can be annealed at about 90 to 130 ° C for about 5 minutes. The friction surfaces obtained are elastically flexible even in a thick layer and adhere well to substrates made of wood, paper, cardboard, etc. Additional adhesives can optionally be incorporated for use on plastic surfaces. The ignitability can be described as "very good" and is only slightly reduced by moisture and water.

Hierfür sind beispielsweise Trimethylolpropan, Trimethyloläthan, 1,2,6-Hexantriol, Glyzerin, Pentaerythrit geeignet.By incorporating a small amount of trihydric or polyvalent carboxylic acids and / or alcohols, branching or crosslinking of the polyester can be achieved. For example, trimethylolpropane, trimethylolethane, 1,2,6-hexanetriol, glycerol, pentaerythritol are suitable for this.

Es sind besonders solche Polyester geeignet, bei denen die Polycarbonsäurekomponente ganz oder zum Teil aus aliphatischen Dicarbonsäuren, insbesondere Adipin-, Bernstein-, Sebacin- oder Azelainsäure besteht.Those polyesters in which the polycarboxylic acid component consists wholly or partly of aliphatic dicarboxylic acids, in particular adipic, succinic, sebacic or azelaic acid, are particularly suitable.

Der Polyester kann gegebenenfalls auch durch einen Gehalt an Monocarbonsäuren modifiziert sein. Bei den zur Anwendung kommenden Polyestern handelt es sich nicht um lufttrocknende Systeme. Die Bedingung »wasserlöslich« im Zusammenhang mit dem Polyester bedeutet, daß der Polyester bei pH-Werten über 7 in Wasser gelöst werden kann.The polyester can optionally also be modified by a content of monocarboxylic acids. The polyesters used are not air-drying systems. The condition "water-soluble" in connection with the polyester means that the polyester can be dissolved in water at pH values above 7.

Ein geeigneter Polyester wurde z. B. wie folgt hergestellt:
