Description

用于聚氨酯硬质泡沫的碳酸醇胺盐发泡剂组合物 技术领域
本发明涉及用于冰箱、冰柜、热水器、冷链保温(冷藏车)等行业的(浇注型)聚氨酯硬质泡沫的碳酸醇胺盐复合发泡剂,更具体地说,涉及由高水含量的碳酸醇胺盐化学发泡剂与环戊烷和任选的沸点在15-41℃范围内的物理发泡剂相结合的一种化学-物理结合型发泡剂,尤其所述聚氨酯硬质泡沫是采用包含部分的芳族聚酯多元醇(例如聚邻苯二甲酸乙二醇酯多元醇)和/或甲苯二胺聚醚多元醇的聚合物多元醇作为白料所制备的。
背景技术
聚氨酯硬质泡沫材料是优质的绝热保温材料,广泛应用于冰箱、冰柜、热水器、冷链保温等行业。为了环保的需要,在这些行业,聚氨酯泡沫材料生产过程中常用水和环戊烷作为发泡剂,由于环戊烷的导热系数比较高导致泡沫材料的导热系数也比较高,能耗大,为了降低泡沫材料的导热系数,提高保温材料的保温性能,降低能耗,要加入其他氢氟烃类物理发泡剂,例如HCFC-141b(一氟二氯乙烷,分子量116.95,沸点32℃),CFC-113(三氯三氟乙烷,分子量187.39,沸点47.7℃),CFC-11(三氯一氟甲烷,分子量137.4,沸点23.8℃),HCFC-123(三氟二氯乙烷,分子量152.93,沸点27.85℃),HFC-245fa(分子量134,沸点15.3℃),HFC-365mfc(分子量148,沸点40.2℃),LBA(反式-1-氯-3,3,3-三氟丙烯,分子量130.5,沸点19℃),六氟丁烯(分子量164,沸点33℃)等。某些氯氟烃的价格昂贵。这些氢氟烃类物理发泡剂的生产过程中也会产生含氯氟的副产物,对环境有影响。
US6326412 B1公开了作为聚氨酯发泡剂的氨基甲酸铵,其中氨基甲酸铵的粘度高达2200mPa.s(参见说明书第6栏第51-55行,lines 51-55 in column 6),它为粘稠或半固体状态。
目前,用于冰箱、冰柜、热水器、冷藏车(冷链保温)等行业中的聚氨酯硬质泡沫材料的绝热性能越来越重要。一般,用于这些行业中的聚氨酯硬质泡沫的兰芝模(Lance)导热系数λ(mW/m·K,10℃)是在19.00-20.00范围。如果导热系数λ从19.00降低至18.90,更优选地降低至18.80,18.70,18.60,18.50,18.40,18.30,18.20,18.10,18.05,18.00或17.95(其中17.95-18.00几乎属于最低的极限值,继续降低此数值将变得非常困难),则每一个进步都带来巨大的经济利益。例如,世界全每年生产至少几千万台冰箱和冷柜,通过这些冰箱和冷柜使用改进的硬质泡沫,一台冰箱或冷柜每天节省0.1-0.3度电,一年节省36.5-109.5度电。仅仅就全世界每年生产的冰箱和冷柜数量而言,节省的电力是惊人的。
在冰箱、冰柜、热水器、冷藏车(冷链保温)等行业中的聚氨酯硬质泡沫的工业化生产中,通常使用喷枪的浇注方法将发泡用混合物(由白料和黑料在高压浇注机的混合室中混合而成)经由模具的单个浇注口被注入该模具内,发泡用混合物(发泡用物料)在模具内进行发泡反应、固化,然后进行脱模。例如,在冰箱生产流水线中,平均2-3分钟有一台冰箱下线,因此,发泡用混合物的流动性是非常重要的,要求它能够在较短的时间内填充到不规则的模具内腔的每一个角落,确保发泡混合物在模具内填充均匀并且不留死角。冰箱、冷柜、热水器等行业的发泡工艺实际上是在工业化生产流水线上的在线发泡工艺。
本领域的技术人员认为聚氨酯硬质泡沫材料中泡孔内的气体的导热系数决定了泡沫材料的绝热性能,即,泡孔内气体的导热系数越低,泡沫材料的绝热性能越好。因而,致力于开发新型的气态下具有更低导热系数的含氟发泡剂。
发明内容
本申请的发明人通过多年的研究发现,相对于泡孔内气体的导热系数对于聚氨酯硬质泡沫材料的绝热性能的影响而言,聚氨酯硬质泡沫材料中泡孔微观结构对于泡沫材料的绝热性能有更大的影响。在具有优异的绝热性能的这些聚氨酯硬质泡沫中,聚氨酯硬质泡沫材料中泡孔微观结构和闭孔率主要地决定了泡沫材料的绝热性能。
本申请所要解决的技术问题是通过对发泡组合物的组成进行优化,改进发泡工艺,进而改变泡沫的微观结构,以便提高所生产聚氨酯硬质泡沫的绝热性能和强度性质。
为了获得具有良好的泡孔微观结构的聚氨酯硬质泡沫,本申请的发明人致力于研究由碳酸醇胺盐化学发泡剂和物理发泡剂组成的化学-物理复合发泡剂。
本申请的发明人发现,对于由碳酸醇胺盐化学发泡剂和物理发泡剂组成的复合发泡剂而言,一些影响因素,例如,化学发泡剂和物理发泡剂,各自或两者以复合物形式,与作为白料的聚合物多元醇之间的相容性,化学发泡剂的活性和物理发泡剂(它产生初始成核作用)的沸点(它们影响发泡反应的起发时间或乳白时间),醇胺(作为交联剂)的含量和类型,水的含量,等等,对于发泡反应过程具有直接的影响。
在发泡过程中,由白料和黑料混合所形成的发泡混合物的合适膨胀速度和固化速度(即合适的发泡速度,它包括起发时间、拉丝时间和结皮时间)主要地决定了泡孔微观结构。另外,水和由化学发泡剂分解所形成的醇胺(活性较高的醇胺先作为催化剂和交联剂,活性低的水在发泡反应的后期作为交联剂或不参与交联反应)的含量又决定了泡孔内壁的交联强度并且进而影响泡沫材料的压缩强度和抗变形性能。此外,泡孔内壁的交联有利于防止泡孔破裂和因此提高闭孔率,而闭孔率的提高又会提高泡沫的绝热性能。
对于在绝热性能方面具有高要求的冰箱、冰柜、热水器和冷链保温(冷藏车)行业中的应用的聚氨酯硬质泡沫(下面简称“冰箱用聚氨酯硬质泡沫”或“冰箱用PU泡沫”)来说,在冰箱、冷柜、热水器或冷藏车的生产中工业化聚氨酯发泡过程中需要相应的合适的发泡速度。一般来说,在工业化生产的在线发泡工艺中,相关领域的发泡速度如下表A中所示:

通常,用于制备聚氨酯硬质泡沫的多异氰酸酯(例如,多亚甲基多苯基多异氰酸酯,即聚合MDI)被称作“黑料”,而添加了各种助剂(如聚氨酯催化剂、泡沫稳定剂以及任选的阻燃剂、任选的扩链剂和任选的交联剂)和发泡剂的发泡用聚合物多元醇组合物被称作“白料”。其中,添加了各种助剂(如聚氨酯催化剂、泡沫稳定剂以及任选的阻燃剂、任选的扩链剂和任选的交联剂)、但仅仅没有添加发泡剂的发泡用聚合物多元醇组合物被称作“干白料”。也就是说,“干白料”是指:不含发泡剂的“白料”,或包含聚合物多元醇类和除发泡剂之外的其它助剂的一种聚氨酯发泡用干白料。

对于聚氨酯硬质泡沫的理想的泡孔微观结构而言,它是指细腻(或细密)且泡孔尺寸均匀的泡孔结构。也就是说,一方面泡沫具有较低的密度,另一方面,单位体积的泡沫的数量是尽可能多(从SEM照片看,单位面积的泡孔的数量应该尽可能多),平均泡孔直径是更小,和泡孔尺寸是比较均匀,以及闭孔率是高的。目前,在冰箱、冰柜行业,泡沫密度一般是28-36Kg/m 3;在热水器行业,泡沫密度一般是33-40Kg/m 3。一般,在本申请中,当泡沫的密度是在25-42Kg/m 3范围,平均泡孔直径是在180-240微米(优选190-230微米,更优选195-220微 米)范围内,尤其,泡孔的尺寸比较均匀,这样的泡孔微观结构是细腻的或理想的。也就是说,在单位体积内泡孔的数量越多,泡孔的平均直径在180-240微米之间,泡孔直径更均匀和闭孔率越高,这样的泡孔微观结构是越理想的。
在本申请中,“任选的”表示有或没有。
在本申请中,优选,所述的重量份是(大约)相对于80-115重量份(优选85-110重量份,更优选90-100重量份或100-115重量份)的包含聚合物多元醇类和除发泡剂之外的其它助剂的聚氨酯发泡用干白料(简称,干白料),或是(大约)相对于80-115重量份(优选85-110重量份,更优选90-100重量份或100-115重量份)的在干白料中存在的全部聚合物多元醇。用于干白料中的聚合物多元醇包括聚醚多元醇(例如聚氧化丙烯多元醇)和/或聚酯多元醇(例如芳族聚酯多元醇或PET多元醇)。

优选,上述的化学发泡剂(F1)是通过在C2-C9醇胺和水的混合物中通入CO 2气体的中和方法来制备的;优选,该中和方法包括:在C2-C9醇胺和水的混合物中通入表压力为0.09-0.4MPa(0.9-4atm,例如0.09-0.35MPa或0.1-0.3MPa)的CO 2气体至饱和为止,任选地,在所得产物中进一步添加上述C2-C9醇胺(优选,以上所述的特定C4-C9二醇胺,例如二乙醇胺和/或二异丙醇胺),以使得产物的pH值在8.6-10.4范围(优选8.8-10.2,9-10.1,优选9.2-10,优选9.2-9.7,优选9.4-9.6),获得化学发泡剂(F1);优选,其中在C2-C9醇胺和水的混合物中的水量应使得 所制备的化学发泡剂(F1)中的(游离)水含量为10-33wt%,优选是10.5-32wt%,优选11-31wt%,11.5-30wt%,12-29wt%,12.5-28wt%,13-27wt%,例如14、15、16、18、19、20、21、22、23、24、25或26wt%。这里所述的上述C2-C9醇胺包含上述的特定C4-C9二醇胺,其中特定C4-C9二醇胺和其组成(mol%)与以上所定义相同。优选,向C2-C9醇胺和水的混合物中通入的CO 2气体的压力应该进行选择(一般根据C2-C9醇胺的碱性),该压力足以使得C2-C9醇胺尽可能按照形成碳酸二(C2-C9醇胺)盐的化学计量被CO 2中和但形成不超过10wt%(例如0-10wt%,优选0-9wt%,0-8wt%,0-7wt%,0-6wt%,0-5wt%,0-4wt%,0-3wt%,0-2wt%,0-1wt%,0-0.5wt%,最优选0wt%)的C2-C9醇胺碳酸氢盐,该wt%基于所形成的化学发泡剂(F1)(即,碳酸醇胺盐水合物)的重量。
在通入CO 2气体的中和方法中,针对不同C2-C9醇胺的碱性来选择合适的CO 2压力以便使得C2-C9醇胺尽可能按照形成碳酸二(C2-C9醇胺)盐的化学计量被CO 2中和并且所获得的化学发泡剂(F1)中的C2-C9醇胺碳酸氢盐的含量是尽可能低,例如低于10wt%、更优选低于8wt%或甚至低于5wt%,CO 2压力的选择是本领域技术人员容易实现的。另外,为了制备包含两种或两种以上的不同碱性的醇胺并且所形成醇胺碳酸氢盐的含量较低的一种化学发泡剂(F1),能够通过分别在不同的CO 2气体的压力下向每一种醇胺中通入CO 2气体来制备每一种醇胺的碳酸盐(几乎不含醇胺碳酸氢盐)。然后将几乎不含醇胺碳酸氢盐的两种或多种的中和产物按照相应的比例进行混合,以获得含有多种醇胺碳酸盐和含有较少量的醇胺碳酸氢盐的一种化学发泡剂(F1)。另外,对于通过通入CO 2气体从碱性较强的醇胺(例如,(Ib)仅仅具有羟乙基的仲胺型C3-C5单醇胺,或(IIb)具有羟基异丙基的仲胺型C4-C6单醇胺)制备含有较大量的醇胺碳酸氢盐的一种醇胺碳酸盐产物的情况,能够进一步在产物中添加弱碱性的二醇胺来使得醇胺碳酸氢盐转化为醇胺碳酸盐,从而减少产物中的碳酸氢盐的含量至大约0wt%,也就是说,形成了含有较强碱性的醇胺与较弱碱性的醇胺的一种醇胺混合物,但是,这种醇胺混合物仍然不是优选的,因为它含有较强碱性的醇胺(如N-甲基乙醇胺),而这些较强碱性的醇胺对于发泡反应的起发时间有影响。
首先,发明人通过实验发现,在发泡剂组合物(FC)中存在的少量的、不稳定的醇胺碳酸氢盐对于发泡反应有很大的影响,导致发泡反应中的起发时间缩短(例如至1-2秒)。例如,由于碳酸氢盐的存在,在白料与黑料混合后立即发生剧烈的反应,泡沫迅速膨胀而失控。其原因可能是醇胺碳酸氢盐是不稳定的(容易分解)并且反应活性是较高的。因此,控制化学发泡剂(F1)中醇胺碳酸氢盐的含量低于10wt%(尤其低于8wt%或5wt%)是比较重要的。
其次,在控制碳酸氢盐的含量的情况下,进一步对于C2-C9醇胺中的各种醇胺进行选择, 还能够进一步改进发泡剂组合物的性能。
优选,所述特定C4-C9二醇胺是:(I)醇胺类(Ia),或(III)由组分(I)醇胺类(Ia)和组分(II)醇胺类(IIa)组成的结合物或混合物;更优选,所述特定C4-C9二醇胺是(III)由组分(I)醇胺类(Ia)和(II)醇胺类(IIa)组成的结合物或混合物;因此,其中组分(I)醇胺类(Ia)与组分(II)醇胺类(IIa)的摩尔比是1:(0-2.5),优选1:(0.1-2.5),优选1:(0.1-2),更优选1:(0.2-1.5),更优选1:(0.22-1.2),更优选1:(0.24-0.9),更优选1:(0.25-0.5),更优选1:(0.27-0.4),更优选1:(0.29-0.45),最优选3:1。优选,在(III)由组分(I)醇胺类(Ia)和(II)醇胺类(IIa)组成的结合物或混合物中,组分(I)的mol%是28-100mol%,更优选33-91wt%,更优选40-83wt%,更优选45-82wt%,更优选52-81wt%,更优选66-80wt%,更优选71-78wt%,更优选68-77wt%,最优选75mol%,基于组分(I)和组分(II)的总摩尔量。

一般,所述特定C4-C9二醇胺是选自于C4-C7二乙醇胺类(它包括二乙醇胺、N-甲基二乙醇胺、N-乙基二乙醇胺和N-丙基二乙醇胺)、C6-C9二异丙醇胺类(它包括二异丙醇胺,N-甲基二异丙醇胺、N-乙基二异丙醇胺和N-丙基二异丙醇胺)和C5-C8乙醇异丙醇胺类(它包括乙醇异丙醇胺、N-甲基乙醇异丙醇胺、N-乙基乙醇异丙醇胺和N-丙基乙醇异丙醇胺)中的一种或两种或更多种(优选,两种或更多种);更优选,所述特定C4-C9二醇胺是由(C4-C7二乙醇胺类)与(C6-C9二异丙醇胺类和/或C5-C8乙醇异丙醇胺类)组成的混合物,例如按照按照0.3-5:1(优选0.7-4.5:1)的摩尔比;更优选,所述特定C4-C9二醇胺是由(C4-C7二乙醇胺类)与(C6-C9二异丙醇胺类和/或C5-C8乙醇异丙醇胺类)按照1.5-4.5:1摩尔比(优选1.8-4.2:1,更优选2-4:1,更优选2.3-3.7:1,更优选2.5-3.5:1,更优选2.7-3.3:1,更优选2.8-3.2:1,尤其3:1摩尔比)所组成的混合物;更优选,所述特定C4-C9二醇胺是由(二乙醇胺)和(二异丙醇胺和/或乙醇异丙醇胺)按照1.5-4.5:1摩尔比所组成的混合物,更优选,摩尔比是1.8-4.2:1,更优选2-4:1,更优选2.3-3.7:1,更优选2.5-3.5:1,更优选2.7-3.3:1,更优选2.8-3.2:1,尤其3:1。
一般,所述仲胺型C3-C6单醇胺(Ib+IIb)是选自于N-甲基单乙醇胺、N-甲基单异丙醇胺、N-乙基单乙醇胺、N-乙基单异丙醇胺、N-丙基单乙醇胺和N-丙基单异丙醇胺中的一种或两种或多种。
一般,在化学发泡剂(F1)中的全部C2-C9醇胺有可能包括,除了上述特定C4-C9二醇胺以及具有羟乙基或羟基异丙基的仲胺型C3-C6单醇胺(即,(Ib)仅仅具有羟乙基的仲胺型C3-C5单醇胺和(IIb)仅仅具有羟基异丙基的仲胺型C4-C6单醇胺)之外的其它C2-C9醇胺类(简称“杂质醇胺类IA”),例如,伯胺型C2-C9单醇胺类,叔胺型C4-C9单醇胺类(例如N-二甲基乙醇胺和N-二甲基异丙醇胺),叔胺型C6-C9三醇胺类(例如三乙醇胺、三异丙醇胺),等等。化学发泡剂(F1)中此类其它醇胺类(杂质醇胺类IA)的含量应该是尽可能少,一般是0-30mol,优选0-28mol%,优选0-25mol%,优选0-23mol%,优选0-20mol%,优选0-18mol%,优选0-15mol%,优选0-13mol%,优选0-10mol%,优选0-8mol%,优选0-5mol%,优选0-3mol%,优选0-2mol%,基于在化学发泡剂(F1)中存在的C2-C9醇胺类的总摩尔量(或基于在组分(A)、(C)和(D)中存在的C2-C9醇胺类的总摩尔量)。
另外,在化学发泡剂(F1)中的全部C2-C9醇胺有可能包括,除了上述特定C4-C9二醇胺 之外的其它醇胺类:(Ib)仅仅具有羟乙基的仲胺型C3-C5单醇胺,(IIb)仅仅具有羟基异丙基的仲胺型C4-C6单醇胺,和上述所谓“杂质醇胺类IA”;全部这些其它醇胺类的总计mol%是0-30mol%,优选0-28mol%,优选0-25mol%,优选0-23mol%,优选0-20mol%,优选0-18mol%,优选0-15mol%,优选0-13mol%,优选0-10mol%,优选0-8mol%,优选0-5mol%,优选0-3mol%,优选0-2mol%,基于在化学发泡剂(F1)中存在的C2-C9醇胺类的总摩尔量(或基于在组分(A)、(C)和(D)中存在的C2-C9醇胺类的总摩尔量)。
以上所述的重量份是(大约)相对于或基于80-115重量份(优选85-110重量份,更优选85-100或90-100重量份或90-115重量份或100-115重量份,例如86、87、88、89、90、91、92、93、94、95、96、97、98、99、100、102、105、107、108、110、112、113或114重量份)的包含聚合物多元醇类和除发泡剂之外的其它助剂的聚氨酯发泡用干白料。其中所述其它助剂包括聚氨酯催化剂,发泡稳定剂以及任选的阻燃剂、任选的扩链剂和任选的交联剂。所述发泡剂组合物(FC)用于与干白料和作为黑料的多异氰酸酯混合来进行发泡反应,从而制备聚氨酯硬质泡沫。当化学发泡剂(F1)的量大于12重量份以及CP的用量相应减少时,所得白料的粘度明显增大。
这里所述的物理发泡剂(F2),即HFC-245fa、HFC-365mfc、LBA和六氟丁烯,都属于氢氟烃类物理发泡剂。
当发泡剂组合物(FC)不包含物理发泡剂(F2)时,化学发泡剂(F1)和环戊烷分别装在单独的容器中。另外,当发泡剂组合物(FC)进一步包含物理发泡剂(F2)时,化学发泡剂(F1)装在单独的容器中,而物理发泡剂(F2)和环戊烷分别被装在不同的容器中或被装在同一容器中。
本发明的发泡剂组合物(FC)用于浇注型聚氨酯硬质泡沫的制备,更优选用于在冰箱、冰柜、热水器或冷藏车生产过程中的浇注型聚氨酯硬质泡沫的制备。
在本申请中,化学发泡剂(F1)的用量一般不少3重量份,这能够使得所获得的聚氨酯硬质泡沫具有良好的绝热性能和强度性能。
如果化学发泡剂(F1)以小于3重量份的用量(例如1-2.8重量份)使用,则它主要用于发泡反应的前期成核作用,因为在白料与黑料混合时立即产生CO 2气体。而物理发泡剂是利用反应热使得发泡混合物升温之后发生汽化来产生气泡,这是一种滞后的起泡、膨胀。所述的前期成核作用有利于增加泡孔的数量和提高泡孔尺寸的均匀性,因而也有助于改进聚氨酯硬质泡沫的微观结构,从而在一定的程度上提高泡沫的绝热性能。当然,更优选的是以高于3重量份(即3-8重量份)的用量使用,以便获得更好的综合性能的聚氨酯硬质泡沫。
当在发泡剂组合物(FC)中存在水(F3)时,这意味着,通过另外使用少量(至多2重量份) 的水和相应地同时减少物理发泡剂的用量以降低硬质泡沫生产成本,但是,这会降低所生产泡沫的强度和抗变形性能,同时还会降低泡沫的闭孔率而使得绝热性能下降。因此,优选的是,水(F3)的量应该减少,更优选减少至0重量份。
另外,当在发泡剂组合物(FC)中存在物理发泡剂(F2)时,这意味着,物理发泡剂(F2)的用量越高,硬质泡沫生产成本显著地提高,而且导致硬质泡沫的强度性质下降,但是所生产泡沫的绝热性能并没有显著地提高。因此,优选的是,物理发泡剂(F2)的用量应该减少,更优选减少至0重量份。当物理发泡剂(F2)的用量减少时,化学发泡剂(F1)的用量相应地提高,以便获得具有规定的泡沫密度或同等的泡沫密度的硬质泡沫。
优选,发泡剂组合物(FC)仅仅包括组分(1)化学发泡剂(F1)和组分(2)环戊烷,即,组分(2)物理发泡剂(F2)和组分(3)水(F3)的用量均为0重量份。因而,化学发泡剂(F1)与环戊烷的质量之比(或相对用量)是(4-10重量份):(10-20重量份),优选(4-9.5):(10-20),(4-9):(10-20),(4-9):(10-18),(4-9):(10-16),优选(4.5-10):(10-20),(5-9.5):(10-20),(5-9.5):(10-18),(5-9.5):(10-16),(5-9):(10-20),(5-9):(10-18),(5-9):(10-16),更优选(5.5-9):(10-20),(5.5-8.5):(10-20),优选(5.5-8):(10-20),优选(5.5-8):(10.5-19.5),(5.5-8):(11-19),(5.5-8):(11.5-18.8),(5.5-8):(12-18.5),(5.5-8):(13-18),优选(5.6-8):(10.5-19.5),优选(5.7-8):(11-19),优选(5.8-7.8):(11.5-18.8),优选(5.9-7.6):(12-18.5),优选(6-7):(13-18),更优选(6-7):(14-18),更优选(6-7):(15-18),更优选(6-7):(16-18)。
在这些情况下,一方面显著降低硬质泡沫生产成本,同时,出乎预料地,还使得所形成的硬质聚氨酯泡沫具有极低的导热系数,即,兰芝模(Lance)λ(mW/m·K,10℃)。该系数在下面简称导热系数(λ)。
一般,相对于或基于80-115重量份(优选85-110重量份,优选90-100重量份,如100重量份)的干白料,发泡剂组合物(FC)的用量足以使得所制备的(浇注型)聚氨酯硬质泡沫的密度是在25-38Kg/cm 3范围,优选26-37Kg/cm 3,优选27-36.5Kg/cm 3,优选28-36Kg/cm 3,优选28.5-35.5Kg/cm 3,优选29-35Kg/cm 3,例如30、31、32、33或34Kg/cm 3
在本申请中优选的是,组分(1)高水含量的碳酸醇胺盐化学发泡剂(F1)和组分(4)任选的水(F3)两者的水量之和是1-3.7wt%(优选1.1-3.5wt%,优选1.2-3.3wt%,优选1.25-3wt%或1.3-2.5wt%或1.4-2wt%,例如1.5、1.6、1.7、1.8wt%),(大约)相对于或基于100重量份的干白料。在这一范围内的水量能够使得发泡用组合物具有理想的流动性,同时确保所制备的硬质泡沫具有优异的强度性能和绝热性能。
化学发泡剂(F1)由组分A)、B)、任选的C)和任选的D)组成;优选,化学发泡剂(F1)由组分 A)、B)和任选的C)组成或由组分A)、B)和任选的D)组成;更优选,化学发泡剂(F1)由组分A)和B)组成。
根据本发明的最优选方案,提供一种发泡剂组合物(FC),其中:所述特定C4-C9二醇胺是由二乙醇胺和二异丙醇胺按照1:(0.15-3),优选1:(0.2-1.5),更优选1:(0.22-1.2),更优选1:(0.24-0.9),更优选1:(0.25-0.5),更优选1:(0.27-0.4),更优选1:(0.29-0.45)的摩尔比所组成的混合物。优选,化学发泡剂(F1)的pH是9.2-10,优选9.3-9.7,更优选9.4-9.6。更优选,组分(D)C2-C9醇胺碳酸氢盐的含量是0-5wt%,0-4wt%,0-3wt%,0-2wt%,0-1wt%,0-0.5wt%,最优选0wt%。使用这种发泡剂组合物(FC)所获得的聚氨酯硬质泡沫(密度在25-38Kg/cm 3范围)的兰芝模(Lance)导热系数λ(mW/m·K,10℃)低于18.30或低于18.20或低于18.10,甚至低于18.05。在由二乙醇胺和二异丙醇胺组成的化学发泡剂(F1)中少量存在的二异丙醇胺起着相容或增溶作用,能够提高发泡剂组合物(FC)与干白料中的聚合物多元醇之间的相容性,能够形成透明、均匀的白料,改善了聚氨酯硬质泡沫的微观结构和闭孔率,因而能够将泡沫的导热系数λ(mW/m·K,10℃)降低至例如低于18.05。
本发明提供一种聚氨酯发泡用白料,它包括:(1)包含聚合物多元醇类和除发泡剂之外的其它助剂的聚氨酯发泡用干白料,其中所述其它助剂包括聚氨酯催化剂、泡沫稳定剂以及任选的阻燃剂、任选的扩链剂和任选的交联剂;和(2)上述的碳酸醇胺盐发泡剂组合物(FC)。
优选,所述干白料中的聚合物多元醇类包含8-52wt%(优选9-50wt%,优选10-48wt%,优选12-47wt%,优选15-45wt%,优选16-40wt%,更优选18-35wt%)的芳族/半芳族聚酯多元醇(例如聚邻苯二甲酸乙二醇酯多元醇、聚间苯二甲酸乙二醇酯多元醇或聚对苯二甲酸二乙醇酯多元醇)和/或甲苯二胺聚氧化丙烯多元醇和92-48wt%(优选91-50wt%,优选90-52wt%,优选88-53wt%,优选85-55wt%,优选84-60wt%,更优选82-65wt%)的(非甲苯二胺型或非甲苯二胺引发的)聚氧化丙烯多元醇,即,除甲苯二胺聚氧化丙烯多元醇以外的聚氧化丙烯多元醇。
本发明还提供一种聚氨酯发泡用组合物(或混合物),它包括:
(1)作为黑料的多异氰酸酯(优选,多亚甲基多苯基多异氰酸酯或聚合MDI);
(2)包含聚合物多元醇类和除发泡剂之外的其它助剂的聚氨酯发泡用干白料;和
(3)以上所述的碳酸醇胺盐发泡剂组合物(FC)。
优选,黑料(1)与干白料(2)和发泡剂组合物(3)的质量之和的比例(即,物料比)是1.1-1.36:1,优选1.13-1.35:1,优选1.15-1.30:1,优选1.17-1.27:1,优选1.18-1.25:1,最优选1.2:1。
本申请中芳族/半芳族聚酯多元醇是指芳族聚酯多元醇和/或半芳族聚酯多元醇,通常具有低粘度(25℃)(例如3000-8000厘泊,如3200-5000或3500-4000)。
对于干白料中的聚合物多元醇类,由于它包含少量的芳族聚酯多元醇(即PET多元醇),优选,聚邻苯二甲酸乙二醇酯和聚间苯二甲酸乙二醇酯多元醇,更优选聚邻苯二甲酸乙二醇酯。
甲苯二胺聚氧化丙烯多元醇是指甲苯二胺引发或起始的聚氧化丙烯多元醇。
优选,当使用芳族/半芳族聚酯多元醇时,减少甲苯二胺聚氧化丙烯多元醇的用量或不用。
一方面,二乙醇胺类(例如二乙醇胺或N-甲基二乙醇胺)具有较低粘度,但它们与包括聚氧化丙烯多元醇和少量的聚酯多元醇和/或甲苯二胺聚醚多元醇的干白料之间的相容性稍差(通过在搅拌下混合干白料和含有二乙醇胺类的发泡剂所获得的白料随后通过离心处理来快速消泡,发现物料有分层现象,即,底部有较薄的一层物料),所获得的聚氨酯硬质泡沫的绝热性能不是最理想的。
另一方面,二异丙醇胺类(例如二异丙醇胺、乙醇异丙醇胺、和N-甲基二异丙醇胺)和乙醇异丙醇胺类具有较高的粘度(在通过手工搅拌下混合干白料和含有二异丙醇胺类的发泡剂以便获得白料时,明显感觉白料的搅拌更困难而且白料有更高的粘度),导致白料与黑料的混合程度不太均匀,所获得的聚氨酯硬质泡沫的绝热性能也不是最理想的。然而,出乎预料的是,这些(二异丙醇胺类和/或乙醇异丙醇胺类)与二乙醇胺类的相结合使用能够显著改善所获得的发泡剂与干白料之间的相容性,能够形成均匀、透明的白料,进而改进了所制备泡沫的微观结构和提高了闭孔率,使得泡沫的导热系数几乎达到最低的极限值(例如λ值低至18.10或甚至低于18.02)。上述两种类型的醇胺相结合使用可能导致掺杂作用,相互降低粘度。
本发明还提供上述碳酸醇胺盐发泡剂组合物(FC)用于配制聚氨酯发泡用组合物的用途。
本发明还提供制备聚氨酯硬质泡沫的方法,该方法包括:将包含上述的发泡剂组合物(FC)的聚合物多元醇组合物白料与作为黑料的多异氰酸酯(优选,多亚甲基多苯基多异氰酸酯或聚合MDI)进行混合和发泡;优选地,进行使用浇注机来进行浇注发泡。
本发明还提供由上述的制备聚氨酯硬质泡沫的方法所获得的聚氨酯硬质泡沫,其中,聚氨酯硬质泡沫的密度是在25-38Kg/cm 3范围,优选26-37Kg/cm 3,优选27-36.5Kg/cm 3,优选28-36Kg/cm 3,优选28.5-35.5Kg/cm 3,优选29-35Kg/cm 3,例如30、31、32、33或34Kg/cm 3
聚氨酯硬质泡沫的兰芝模(Lance)导热系数λ(mW/m·K,10℃)低于18.50,优选低于18.40,更优选低于18.30,更优选低于18.20,更优选低于18.05。
水与醇胺之间有较强的氢键作用,大于醇胺与碳酸根之间的化学键。
对于发泡剂组合物(FC)在冰箱、冰柜、热水器和冷藏车行业的聚氨酯硬质泡沫的制备中的应用来说,当发泡剂(FC)中环戊烷的相对用量进一步提高至22重量份以上时,将会在所配制的白料中导致形成两相体系(相分离现象)。其中,在白料被搅拌时发现有油滴的存在,另 外,在静置时发生分层,这意味着过多的环戊烷摆脱了水和聚合物多元醇的束缚(或者说,环戊烷在白料中的溶解度是有限的),它不再参与形成多元复合物。因而,在发泡反应中无法形成均相的发泡体系,所得泡沫中泡孔直径尤其不均匀(其中油滴成为汽化中心,在油滴的位置产生大孔或超大孔),泡孔的直径通常大于300微米或甚至大于350微米,泡沫的绝热性能显著下降。
所述的相分离现象表明,只有当物理发泡剂(F2)和/或环戊烷在发泡组合物(FC)中的含量是在一定的范围内时,物理发泡剂(F2)和环戊烷与干白料之间有良好的相容性,能够形成透明和均匀的白料。
发明人通过实验已发现,由于在干白料中存在了一部分的含苯环的聚酯多元醇和甲苯二胺聚醚多元醇,这样的干白料的使用能够提高环戊烷在白料体系中的相容性或溶解度,同时,也能够提高HFC-245fa、HFC-365mfc、LBA和六氟丁烯在白料体系中的相容性。但是,由于六氟丁烯具有较高的分子量、更高的密度和更高极性,而较高的密度会影响六氟丁烯在白料中的密度分布,因此,它在白料体系中的相容性比HFC-245fa、HFC-365mfc、LBA在白料中的相容性更差,因此,在本发明中,六氟丁烯的使用不是优选的。
另外,在冰箱、冰柜、热水器和冷藏车行业,当发泡剂(FC)中环戊烷的相对用量进一步减少至低于8重量份时,将会导致所形成的白料的流动性下降,在冰箱的生产过程中无法在较短的时间内浇注填充满模具,而且还影响发泡后模具的脱模性,导致冰箱生产流水线的生产效率大幅度降低,而且还降低冰箱的绝热性能。
当化学发泡剂(F1)中水的含量低于9wt%或甚至低于8wt%或低于7wt%时,将会导致所形成的发泡剂的粘度提高,发泡剂在白料中相容性变差,(由于多元醇的脱水作用)醇胺类以固体或粘稠物从白料中析出,发泡剂的活性增高,导致在冰箱生产的发泡过程中泡沫的起发时间大幅度缩短(例如至1-3秒),发泡的速度太快而失控。
发泡用混合物的合适的起发时间和流动性对于冰箱、冰柜、热水器或冷藏车领域的模具内浇注发泡而言是非常重要的,因为发泡用混合物经由单个注料口被注入模具的具有复杂结构的内腔。如果起发时间太短或流动性太差,则发泡用混合物在模具内靠近注料口的区域中发泡和硬化,发泡用混合物无法到达更远的区域中,因此,无法均匀地填充满整个模具内腔,这导致硬质泡沫的开模性能太差,泡沫在模具内的整体密度分布不均匀。
例如,在冰箱制造工业生产线上的聚氨酯硬质泡沫的制备中,模具的打开时间常常是大约180秒,因此,拉丝时间同样也是重要的。
另外,当化学发泡剂(F1)中水的含量高于38wt%或甚至高于40wt%或高于45wt%时,将会 在发泡反应中消耗更多的黑料(多异氰酸酯,例如多亚甲基多苯基多异氰酸酯或聚合MDI),在泡沫材料中产生更多的脲键,导致所得泡沫体的尺寸稳定性下降并且闭孔率降低而降低了泡沫材料的绝热性能。
当化学发泡剂(F1)的pH低于8.6时,化学发泡剂(F1)的活性低和碱性降低,发泡剂(F1)束缚酸性CO 2气体的能力下降,在发泡过程中将白料与黑料搅拌混合时,在反应初始阶段因反应热导致白料稍稍升温而使得CO 2迅速从发泡混合物中逃逸,CO 2气体无法充分地发挥发泡作用,导致所得泡沫的泡孔的尺寸减少。
另外,当化学发泡剂(F1)的pH高于10.4或甚至高于10.5时,化学发泡剂(F1)的活性高和碱性高,意味着发泡剂(F1)中存在更多的碱性醇胺,过量存在的这些碱性醇胺迅速发挥前期催化的作用,导致发泡反应的速度失控(例如起发时间为1-3秒,发泡反应物料迅速膨胀、上升),此外,前期催化的发泡反应(链增长反应)太快,这还会严重干扰了叔胺催化剂的后期催化交联的作用,降低所得泡沫的强度和抗变形性能。
化学发泡剂(F1)中多余的组分(C)游离C2-C9醇胺(主要包括特定C4-C9二醇胺(Ia+IIa)和任选的仲胺型C3-C6单醇胺(Ib+IIb))一方面用于调节化学发泡剂(F1)的pH值并减少醇胺碳酸氢盐的含量,另一方面它用作前期催化剂以调节发泡反应中的发泡速度(例如起发时间)和用作交联剂,组分(C)C2-C9醇胺(主要包括(Ia+IIa)和任选的(Ib+IIb))与水一起用作发泡反应的中后期交联剂,以提高泡孔内壁的强度,进而提高泡沫的强度和抗变形性能。
更优选,当化学发泡剂(F1)中的全部的C2-C9醇胺由二乙醇胺与二异丙醇胺按照摩尔比为2.8-3.2:1(尤其3:1)组成时,导致由白料和黑料混合所得的发泡用混合物能够在最佳的发泡速度(起发时间和拉丝时间)平稳地进行,其中发泡用混合物具有较高的流动性并且能够均匀地填充满整个模具的内腔,所得聚氨酯硬质泡沫的兰芝模(Lance)导热系数λ(mW/m·K,10℃)低于18.05或18.03,几乎达到了绝热性能的极限值,这体现了泡沫的绝热性能的巨大进步。
另外,如果物理发泡剂(F2)的沸点低于15℃或高于41℃,会影响发泡过程的平稳进行。在本发明中,希望首先由化学发泡剂(F1)与多异氰酸酯反应产生CO 2气体来发挥前期的成核和发泡作用,然后随着反应混合物的温度的升高,依次由物理发泡剂和环戊烷发挥发泡的作用,有利于发泡过程的平稳进行。
如果物理发泡剂(F2)的沸点低于15℃,则在将发泡剂组合物(FC)与干白料混合时低沸点的发泡剂立即挥发、逃逸,另外,早期的起泡作用还会导致发泡反应混合物的组成变得不均匀。
如果物理发泡剂(F2)的沸点高于41℃,则物理发泡剂(F2)的起泡作用稍滞后,影响 了发泡反应的平稳进行,另外,当泡沫被冷却至室温后,泡孔内的高沸点的物理发泡剂(F2)因为冷凝变成液体而失去了对泡孔的支撑作用,导致泡沫在以后的使用中发生收缩和变形。
当在化学发泡剂(F1)中的全部C2-C9醇胺包含低于70mol%的特定C4-C9二醇胺时,意味着所谓全部C2-C9醇胺包含更多的其它C2-C9醇胺类,例如,(Ib)仅仅具有羟乙基的仲胺型C3-C5单醇胺和(IIb)仅仅具有羟基异丙基的仲胺型C4-C6单醇胺,以及上述所谓的“杂质醇胺类IA”。
由于小分子的伯胺型C2-C9单醇胺具有更高的碱性和更高的反应活性,当含有较多量的小分子伯胺的白料与黑料混合时,发泡混合物的起发时间大幅度缩短(例如1-2秒),而且反应迅速、泡沫快速膨胀,导致发泡过程失控,不可能以平稳的速度进行发泡反应,对于所生产硬质泡沫的微观结构和闭孔率有不利的影响。因此,在发泡剂组合物(FC)中,伯胺型C2-C9单醇胺的含量越低越好。
另外,由于叔胺型C4-C7单醇胺类和叔胺型C6-C9三醇胺类具有催化作用,同样影响发泡反应的速度。例如,发明人发现,当化学发泡剂(F1)中的C2-C9醇胺包含较大量(例如大于40mol%)的三乙醇胺时会导致泡沫存在“烧芯”现象,即泡沫的芯部呈现深黄色或焦黄色。
根据本发明,提供由上述方法所获得的聚氨酯硬质泡沫,尤其,当聚氨酯硬质泡沫的密度在25-38Kg/cm 3范围时,它的兰芝模(Lance)导热系数λ(mW/m·K,10℃)是低于18.80,优选低于18.70、低于18.60、低于18.50或低于18.40,更优选低于18.30,18.20,18.10,18.04。
本申请的发明人通过大量的实验发现,通过对发泡剂的组成进行优化,能够优化硬质泡沫的微观结构和闭孔率,从而能够理想地降低聚氨酯硬质泡沫的导热系数,甚至能够降低到目前的极限值。当本发明获得的聚氨酯硬质泡沫的密度(芯密度,ASTM D 1622-03)在25-38Kg/cm 3范围,优选26-37Kg/cm 3,优选27-36.5Kg/cm 3,优选28-36Kg/cm 3,优选28.5-35.5Kg/cm 3,优选29-35Kg/cm 3,平均泡孔直径在170-230微米(优选180-220微米,更优选170-210)范围内时,一般,聚氨酯硬质泡沫的导热系数(Mw/m·k,10℃)低于18.40,更优选低于18.30,更优选低于18.20,更优选低于18.05或18.03。
本发明的优点
1、本申请的发明人发现了醇胺碳酸氢盐在浇注型聚氨酯硬质泡沫的制备中的有害作用,因此,尽可能减少化学发泡剂(F1)中醇胺碳酸氢盐的含量,例如在醇胺中通入CO 2气体的中和反应中针对不同碱性的醇胺选择合适的CO 2气体的压力。另外,通过对醇胺的类型和相对用量进行选择,提高了发泡剂组合物的性能(例如组合物与干白料之间的相容性),使得由黑料和白料混合后的发泡混合物具有理想的流动性以便均匀地填充满整个模具并且使得发泡用混合物具有合适的起发时间和拉丝时间,适合于冰箱、冷柜、热水器和冷藏车领域的单口浇注 方式的聚氨酯硬质泡沫生产。所制备的泡沫具有良好的开模性能。
2、本发明的(浇注型)聚氨酯硬质泡沫的碳酸醇胺盐发泡剂组合物(FC)与发泡用的干白料之间具有良好的相容性,能够形成均匀透明和具有良好流动性的发泡体系并能够用于获得具有良好的泡孔微观结构和闭孔率的聚氨酯硬质泡沫,尤其,当干白料中的聚合物多元醇类包含10-52wt%(优选15-45wt%,更优选18-35wt%)的芳族/半芳族聚酯多元醇和/或甲苯二胺聚氧化丙烯多元醇和90-48wt%(即余量)(优选85-55wt%,更优选82-65wt%)的聚氧化丙烯多元醇(例如,蔗糖引发的聚氧化丙烯多元醇,或季戊四醇引发的聚氧化丙烯多元醇)时。
3、优选,化学发泡剂(F1)是通过在C2-C9醇胺和水的混合物中通入CO 2气体的中和方法来制备的,其中C2-C9醇胺含有主要量(70-100mol%)的所述特定C4-C9二醇胺。根据特定C4-C9二醇胺的碱性来选择合适的CO 2气体的压力,该压力足以使得醇胺与CO 2按照形成碳酸盐的化学计量进行中和反应,另一方面CO 2压力不应太高以至于形成太多的醇胺碳酸氢盐。合适的CO 2的压力应使得,通过向醇胺和水的(饱和或接近饱和)混合物中通入CO 2气体的中和方法所制备的化学发泡剂(F1)含有少量(0.1-20wt%,优选0.1-14wt%)的未中和的C2-C9醇胺(尤其特定C4-C9二醇胺),因此,通过使用该化学发泡剂(F1)所形成的硬质泡沫具有非常优异的绝热性能。
4、本发明的(浇注型)聚氨酯硬质泡沫的碳酸醇胺盐发泡剂组合物(FC)与冰箱、冰柜、热水器和冷链保温(冷藏车)行业中的工业化在线发泡反应的工艺非常匹配,对现有的生产流水线不做任何改动,在浇注发泡的流水线上发泡反应的速度是相对平稳的,所获得的泡沫材料的绝热性能和抗变形性能都十分优异。
5、本发明的发泡剂具有明显的成本优势,与第三、四代含氟的发泡剂相比而言。
6、在冰箱、冰柜、热水器和冷藏车(冷链保温)行业中用于制备(浇注型)聚氨酯硬质泡沫的聚合物多元醇通常包含8-52wt%的芳族聚酯多元醇和/或甲苯二胺聚醚多元醇和余量的非甲苯二胺型聚氧化丙烯多元醇,环戊烷和化学发泡剂在此类的体系能够形成透明和具有良好流动性的均相体系,使得发泡均匀,形成细密的泡孔和泡孔尺寸均匀。

下面介绍CO 2通气的方法制备碳酸醇胺盐化学发泡剂(F1)(CFA),即下面实施例中的碳酸醇胺盐水合物。
由卡尔费休法所测量的碳酸醇胺盐水合物的水含量=水合物中的游离水的量+由该碳酸盐和碳酸氢盐分解所生产的水的量。因此,在碳酸醇胺盐化学发泡剂(F1)(即,碳酸醇胺盐水合物)中游离水的含量(wt%)=(由卡尔费休法所测量的碳酸醇胺盐水合物的水含量)–(由该碳酸盐和碳酸氢盐分解所生产的水的量)。
制备实施例1
将2744g(24mol)的二乙醇胺(Mw 105.14)和二异丙醇胺(Mw 133.2)混合物(二乙醇胺和二异丙醇胺比例为摩尔比3:1,18mol:6mol)和914g水混合后加入到5升透明的石英玻璃高压反应器中,开启搅拌,密封反应器,然后在不断搅拌下,控制温度在40-65℃之间,将二氧化碳通入到反应器中,控制CO 2气体的表压力不高于0.3MPa(即0.28-0.3MPa范围),控温反应10小时,降温到40℃以下后放掉压力、放出产物即可。获得碳酸醇胺盐水合物1,它被称作“化学发泡剂”(CFA)或称作碳酸醇胺盐化学发泡剂(F1)。由pH计(雷磁PHS-3C型,上海仪电科学仪器股份有限公司,Shanghai Yidian Science Instrument Co.,Ltd.)测得碳酸醇胺盐水合物1的pH=9.522,水含量=21.12%(卡尔费休法),粘度为360厘泊(25℃),分解温度在42℃-70℃。通过增重法分析,测定醇胺-水混合物吸收了约514g(约11.68mol)的CO 2(分子量44)。有0.544摩尔(2.2666mol%,基于全部醇胺的mol)的醇胺未被中和。11.7mol(210.6g)水参与了中和反应。水合物1中游离水的量为703.76g(16.86%)。

使用与上述的配方(或组成)相同的配方,通过高压浇注发泡机(RSC16/16,克劳斯玛菲公司,德国)进行浇注发泡。其中,发泡剂、干白料和黑料经由各自的物料管路输入浇注发泡机中进行搅拌和混合,然后混合后的发泡物料由喷枪浇注到兰芝模中进行发泡。具体操作如下:首先设定浇注机的第一次浇注的发泡物料量为大约200g,然后将该设定量的发泡物料由喷枪浇注到塑料袋中进行自由发泡,测得发泡物料的起发时间为6秒和喷枪口拉丝时间为35秒,然后根据兰芝模的容积设定浇注物料量将相应设定量的发泡物料浇注到兰芝模中进行发泡。180秒之后开模(即打开内、外夹模)。取泡沫的样品,用于分析泡沫的微观结构和绝热性能。从两个批次的泡沫产品中取2个泡沫样品用于SEM分析。两个样品的SEM照片示于图1A和图1B。
从SEM照片可以清楚地看出,单位面积的泡孔数量是较多的,两个泡沫样品的泡孔的平均孔直径较小(约217μm和约210μm)并且泡孔的尺寸大小比较均匀。
测得发泡过程的启发时间为6秒,拉丝时间为35秒。启发时间和拉丝时间与冰箱的工业生产流水线上的时间范围非常符合,因此,该泡沫适合用于冰箱。
对比例1
重复实施例1,只是发泡剂(水+CP)的用量如表1中所示。泡沫的SEM照片示于图2。泡沫的平均泡孔直径为约346微米。
对白料的透明度和相容性的观察:将发泡剂(水+CP)和干白料在搅拌下进行混合,获得混浊的白料(有油滴),表明发泡剂与干白料(聚合物多元醇)之间具有差的相容性。
混浊现象归因于不含碳酸醇胺盐或醇胺的发泡剂(水+CP)与干白料之间的相容性较差。
实施例2(对比)
1、所使用的组分和相对用量:
发泡剂:7重量份的作为发泡剂的由以上实施例2制备的碳酸醇胺盐水合物2(CFA)和18重量份环戊烷(CP)。
干白料:它由以下组分所组成:40重量份的甲苯二胺聚醚多元醇SD-7100、20重量份聚醚多元醇的SA-460、10重量份的芳族聚酯多元醇PS-4051、20重量份的聚醚多元醇YD-8260、10重量份的聚醚多元醇YD-403、3重量份的硅油类泡沫稳定剂8841(由上海麦豪化工科技有限公司生产)、0.1重量份的N,N,N,N,N-五甲基二亚乙基三胺(代号PC-5,由美国赢创德固赛有限公司生产)、0.5重量份的胺类催化剂BX-405(由美国赢创德固赛有限公司生产)和1重量份三(二甲氨基丙基)六氢三嗪(代号PC-41,由美国赢创德固赛有限公司生产)。
黑料:156份作为黑料的多异氰酸酯MDI(PM200,烟台万华化学集团股份有限公司)。
对白料的透明度和相容性的观察:将上述发泡剂和干白料在搅拌下进行混合,获得稍混浊的白料,表明发泡剂与干白料(聚合物多元醇)之间具有稍低的相容性。
2、发泡反应过程:
使用与上述的配方(或组成)相同的配方,通过高压浇注发泡机(RSC16/16,克劳斯玛菲公司,德国)进行浇注发泡。测得发泡物料的起发时间为3秒和喷枪口拉丝时间为27秒,然后根据兰芝模的容积设定浇注物料量将相应设定量的发泡物料浇注到兰芝模中进行发泡。180秒之后开模(即打开内、外夹模)。发现泡沫集中在浇注口的附近区域,模具内腔的远区域没有泡沫,也就是说泡沫没有填充满整个模具内腔。泡沫在模具的密度分布不均匀。
上述结果表明浇注发泡失败。原因是N-甲基单乙醇胺碳酸盐具有较强的碱性和反应活 性,并且少量存在的伯胺的碳酸氢盐对于浇注发泡有严重的影响,因此,其中醇胺仅仅含有N-甲基单乙醇胺的水合物2导致发泡过程的前期反应太剧烈。
实施例3
1、所使用的组分和相对用量:
发泡剂:3重量份的作为发泡剂的由以上实施例3制备的碳酸醇胺盐水合物3(CFA)、1.8重量份的水、3重量份的HFC-245fa和17重量份环戊烷。

黑料:157份作为黑料的多异氰酸酯MDI(PM200,烟台万华化学集团股份有限公司)。
对白料的透明度和相容性的观察:将上述发泡剂和干白料在搅拌下进行混合,获得透明的白料,表明发泡剂与干白料(聚合物多元醇)之间具有良好的相容性。
分层现象的观察:白料在离心消泡处理后,没有发现分层现象。
2、发泡反应过程:
重复与实施例1中相同的发泡反应过程。测得发泡物料的起发时间为6秒和喷枪口拉丝时间为35秒。硬质泡沫的SEM照片示于图3。

将实施例1的结果与实施例3的结果对比,能够发现:二异丙醇胺类与二乙醇胺的相结合使用能够改善发泡剂组合物与干白料之间的相容性。
对比例2
重复实施例3,只是发泡剂(245fa+CP)的用量如表1中所示。泡沫的SEM照片示于图4。泡沫的泡孔粗大且其尺寸不均匀。
对白料的透明度和相容性的观察:将发泡剂(245fa+CP)和干白料在搅拌下进行混合,获得混浊的白料(有油滴),表明发泡剂与干白料(聚合物多元醇)之间具有差的相容性。
混浊现象归因于不含碳酸醇胺盐的发泡剂(245fa+CP)与干白料之间的相容性较差。
实施例4
1、所使用的组分和相对用量:
发泡剂:3重量份的作为发泡剂的由以上实施例4制备的碳酸醇胺盐水合物4、1.8重量份的水、3重量份的LBA和17重量份CP(环戊烷)。
干白料:它由以下组分所组成:40重量份的聚醚多元醇SD-7100、20重量份的聚醚多元醇SA-460、10重量份的聚酯多元醇PS-4051、20重量份的聚醚多元醇YD-8260、10重量份的聚醚多元醇YD-403、3重量份的泡沫稳定剂8841(由上海麦豪化工科技有限公司生产)、0.1重量份的N,N,N,N,N-五甲基二亚乙基三胺(代号PC-5,由美国赢创德固赛有限公司生产)、0.5重量份的胺类催化剂BX-405(由美国赢创德固赛有限公司生产)和1重量份三(二甲氨基丙基)六氢三嗪(代号PC-41,由美国赢创德固赛有限公司生产)。
黑料:157份作为黑料的多异氰酸酯MDI(PM200,烟台万华化学集团股份有限公司)。
对白料的透明度和相容性的观察:将上述发泡剂和干白料在搅拌下进行混合,获得透明、均相的白料,表明发泡剂与干白料(聚合物多元醇)之间具有非常好的相容性。
分层现象的观察:白料在离心消泡处理后,没有发现分层现象。
2、发泡反应过程:
重复与实施例1中相同的发泡反应过程。测得发泡物料的起发时间为6秒和喷枪口拉丝时间为35秒。硬质泡沫的SEM照片示于图5。
从SEM照片可以清楚地看出,泡孔的平均孔直径较小(约239um比实施例1的平均泡孔直径稍大)并且泡孔的尺寸大小比较均匀。
本实施例4的结果表明,化学发泡剂(F1)的粘度有可能影响泡沫的微观结构和性能。
对比例3
重复实施例4,只是发泡剂为(LBA+CP),其中发泡剂(LBA+CP)的用量如表1中所示。泡沫的SEM照片示于图6。泡沫的泡孔粗大且其尺寸不均匀。
对白料的透明度和相容性的观察:将发泡剂(LBA+CP)和干白料在搅拌下进行混合,获得混浊的白料(油滴),表明发泡剂与干白料(聚合物多元醇)之间具有差的相容性。
实施例5
重复实施例3,只是用3重量份的实施例1中的碳酸醇胺水合物1替代3重量份的碳酸醇胺盐水合物3。所得硬质泡沫的SEM照片示于图7。

表1-发泡组成和泡沫的性能参数对比:
Figure PCTCN2021082825-appb-000002
Figure PCTCN2021082825-appb-000003
注1:表中CFA是指高含水碳酸有机醇胺盐发泡剂;λ值(或K factor)测定按照GB/T 10295-2008,泡沫尺寸20*20*2.5cm。表中的“膨胀率(180s)”是指从开始向兰芝模中注料时开始计时至180秒(3分钟)为止,打开兰芝模后所测量的膨胀率。
注2:Lance模具大小为1600*300*80mm。整体泡沫以长边为方向,平均分为左右两个部分(即,左右两侧),每个部分从下至上的方向,每隔20cm取一个密度点(密度测量点),左右两侧共取16个密度点,取密度最高值与最低值之差为密度极差。这16个密度点密度的平均数为平均密度。
上表1可以看出,高含水量、低醇胺碳酸氢盐含量的碳酸有机醇胺盐水合物作为化学发泡剂与环戊烷相结合使用,或该水合物与氢氟烃类物理发泡剂和环戊烷相结合使用,制备的聚氨酯泡沫材料整体性能优良,导热系数低,保温性能好。尤其,实施例1和实施例5中使用包含(二乙醇胺类+二异丙醇胺类)的发泡组合物所获得的聚氨酯硬质泡沫具有非常优异的绝热性能。
实施例6
重复实施例1,只是用同样用量的实施例1中制备的碳酸醇胺盐水合物1A、1B和1C分别代替实施例1制备的碳酸醇胺盐水合物1。获得聚氨酯硬质泡沫6A-6C。与实施例1的泡沫进行对比。

Figure PCTCN2021082825-appb-000004
Figure PCTCN2021082825-appb-000005
从表2中的数据对比看出,实施例1的泡沫(其中二乙醇胺与二异丙醇胺的摩尔比为3:1)的导热系数最低。
泡沫6A-6C的SEM照片示于图8A、图8B和图8C。可以看出,二乙醇胺与二异丙醇胺的摩尔比影响泡沫的平均泡孔直径,以及在同等的泡沫密度下平均泡孔直径的大小对于绝热性能有一定的影响。
对比例4
重复实施例1,只是环戊烷的量(18份)改为24重量份的环戊烷。
对白料的透明度和相容性的观察:将发泡剂组合物和干白料在搅拌下进行混合,获得混浊的白料并且在白料中发现有清晰的油滴,表明环戊烷从白料中离析,发生了相分离。这说明环戊烷在白料中的溶解度是有限的。
发泡反应过程:测得发泡物料的起发时间为7秒和喷枪口拉丝时间为43秒。
泡沫的SEM照片示于图9。从SEM照片可以清楚地看出,泡孔的平均孔直径较大(约330微米)并且泡孔的尺寸大小是不均匀的。另外,在SEM照片中可以看见多个超大尺寸的泡孔。这些超大泡孔可能是在发泡过程中由油滴(环戊烷)作为起泡中心所形成的。
对比例5
重复实施例1,进行实验1a、2a、3a和4a,只是分别采用同样用量的制备实施例5(参考)、制备实施例6(参考)和制备实施例7(参考)的水合物5、水合物6、水合物7A和水合物7B代替实施例1中的水合物1,进行浇注发泡,获得聚氨酯硬质泡沫5、6、7A和7B。主要在于考察发泡过程的起发时间和拉丝时间。
表3-发泡过程的起发时间和拉丝时间
实验No 1a 2a 3a 4a
醇胺水合物No 5 6 7A 7B
起发时间(s) 4 3 4.5 5
枪口拉丝时间(秒)(料温22℃,环境温度30℃) 31 28 30 33
在实验1a中,与实施例2(对比)中的起发时间(3秒)和拉丝时间(27秒)相比,使用降低了醇胺碳酸氢盐含量的水合物6(制备实施例6)的实验1a的起发时间和拉丝时间分别延长,但仍然无法满足冰箱浇注发泡的要求。
实验2a与实施例2(对比)一样,浇注发泡失败,说明使用仅仅包含伯胺(异丙醇胺)的水 合物6,导致发泡剂组合物的碱性和反应活性太高。伯胺碳酸氢盐对于浇注发泡有严重影响。
实验3a和实验4a的结果表明,当伯胺(异丙醇胺)的mol%高于30mol%时,起发时间和拉丝时间无法满足冰箱浇注发泡的要求。
实施例7
重复实施例1,只是分别采用同样用量的制备实施例8、制备实施例9和制备实施例10中的水合物8、水合物9和水合物10代替实施例1中的水合物1。浇注发泡,获得聚氨酯硬质泡沫8、9和10。主要在于考察发泡过程的起发时间和拉丝时间。
表3-发泡过程的起发时间和拉丝时间
Figure PCTCN2021082825-appb-000006
实验1b的结果表明,N-甲基二乙醇胺替代二乙醇胺,几乎获得相同的结果。
实验2b和实验3b的结果表明,当伯胺(异丙醇胺)的mol%低于30mol%时,浇注发泡过程的起发时间和拉丝时间能够满足冰箱浇注发泡的要求。
对比例6
重复实施例1,只是白料中仅仅包含非甲苯二胺型聚醚多元醇,但不包含聚酯多元醇和甲苯二胺型聚醚多元醇。即,干白料的组成如下所述;
干白料:它由以下组分所组成:40重量份的聚醚多元醇SA-460(山梨醇起始剂)、30重量份的聚醚多元醇YD-8260(以蔗糖和二甘醇为起始剂)、30重量份的聚醚多元醇YD-403(乙二胺起始剂)、3重量份的泡沫稳定剂8841(由上海麦豪化工科技有限公司生产)、0.1重量份的N,N,N,N,N-五甲基二亚乙基三胺(代号PC-5,由美国赢创德固赛有限公司生产)、0.5重量份的胺类催化剂BX-405(由美国赢创德固赛有限公司生产)和1重量份三(二甲氨基丙基)六氢三嗪(代号PC-41,由美国赢创德固赛有限公司生产)。
所形成的泡沫的SEM照片示于图10。有粗大的泡孔,导致泡沫的导热系数是较高的。泡沫的λ(Mw/m·k,10℃)为18.95。尽管非甲苯二胺型的聚氧化丙烯多元醇具有良好的流动性,但是,本发明的含环戊烷的发泡剂组合物与不含聚酯多元醇或甲苯二胺型聚氧化丙烯多元醇的干白料(非甲苯二胺型聚氧化丙烯多元醇)之间的相容性不太好。
实施例8
重复实施例3,进行实验1a和2d,只是,在实验1d中使用1重量份的实施例1中的碳酸醇胺水合物1作为CFA(化学发泡剂)和5重量份的245fa,另外,在实验2d中使用2重量份的实施例1中的碳酸醇胺水合物1作为CFA(化学发泡剂)和4重量份的245fa。
实验1d的泡沫的λ(Mw/m·k,10℃)为18.59。实验2d的泡沫的λ(Mw/m·k,10℃)为18.52。实验1d和实验2d所获得的硬质泡沫的SEM照片分别示于图11和图12。
从SEM照片可以看出,尽管使用了较低量(1或2重量份)的水合物1,但是,它们能够在发泡过程的前期阶段中发挥成核作用,因而有利于提高泡孔的均匀度和降低泡孔的平均尺寸(与对比例2的图4和对比例3的图6相比),泡沫的导热系数能够降低至低于18.60。
实施例9-用于热水器的泡沫材料
重复实施例1,只是CP为12重量份和CFA为4重量份。所得泡沫材料的产品密度(即,打开浇注模具后所测量的泡沫产品的密度)是40.5Kg/cm 3和导热系数K factor(mW/m·K,22.5℃)为19.49。
