Oxygen ethylidene content is in polyethers building-up process, and oxyethane charging capacity accounts for the mass percent of polyethers.
As everyone knows, goods elasticity is relevant with the degree that is separated and the soft section of phase second-order transition temperature of urethane itself.The degree that is separated is higher, and goods elasticity is better, and vice versa; Soft section of phase second-order transition temperature is lower, and the molecular chain movement Shaoxing opera that is elastomeric state in room temperature is strong, and elasticity is better.NCO group reacts with water and generates urea, the hard section of the rich urea of differing molecular is gathered into urea phase hard area because of hydrogen bond action, because the thermodynamics uncompatibility of soft or hard section produces microphase-separated, but microphase-separated is generally incomplete, have a small amount of hard section be dispersed in soft section mutually in, when causing being separated degree variation, also make the second-order transition temperature of soft section of phase raise.In the present invention formula, used hyperoxia ethyl content polyether glycol, soft section contains a large amount of oxygen ethylidene groups in mutually, can dissolve all or part of urea phase, makes soft section of phase purer, and the degree that is separated is higher.Lower second-order transition temperature (50 ℃), has guaranteed that micro-pore elastomer is at room temperature elastomeric state, to such an extent as to room temperature condition can keep the high resilience of freely landing.Hyperoxia ethylidene content polyethers is introduced, and replaces traditional polytetramethylene polyether glycol, and combination material room temperature can stably stored, without crystallization, and not only save energy but also reduce particular device and loaded down with trivial details operation, the overall cost of the system that greatly reduces.
There is again the present invention in the selection of isocyanic ester, also improve, the present invention has adopted the ester modified technology of ammonia, be polyvalent alcohol elder generation and isocyanate reaction, form the end NCO performed polymer of macromolecular chain, the segmented structure finally forming is more regular, this performed polymer also can obviously improve the rebound height of landing of goods, on the other hand, the ester modified technology of ammonia can effectively be controlled viscosity, exothermic heat of reaction, the reactive behavior of reactant, be that initial reaction is unlikely to viscosity and increases too fastly, with the mobility that guarantees that material is good, can guarantee the defects such as products appearance free of pinholes.And the present invention isocyanic ester NCO used content is higher than 15wt%, and viscosity, lower than 500mPas, guarantees that goods have good mobility, avoid producing irregular pore; Have again, on the polyvalent alcohol of the ester modified isocyanic ester of ammonia is selected, the present invention is preferred higher molecular weight polyether glycol, the spalling in the time of can avoiding die sinking, guarantees the lower fraction defective of goods.Its B component isocyanic ester of traditional elastomerics way NCO content is generally lower than 10wt%, can guarantee that it has higher elasticity and other physicalies, but have B material viscosity higher (> 1000mPas), system poor fluidity, the more problem of product surface pin hole.If adopt high NCO content isocyanic ester, reduced viscosity, mobility improve, but goods closed pore is serious, the present invention is in modification MDT building-up process, preferably higher molecular weight (number-average molecular weight 6000-10000) polyether glycol, when guaranteeing the higher resilience of goods, can solve preferably the serious problem of goods closed pore, spalling in the time of can effectively avoiding die sinking, guarantees the lower fraction defective of goods simultaneously.
Polyurethane reaction ball density of the present invention is 100-600kg/m
3, in formula for a product, the water yield is less, accounts for the 0.1-0.6wt% of polymeric components, preferably 0.15-0.5wt%.The elasticity of urethane is relevant with the water yield to a certain extent.In polyurethane foam formula, the water yield is occupied very consequence to the impact of product process and physical property.Produce on the one hand carbonic acid gas as the bubble source of manufacturing polyurethane reaction ball; On the other hand, carry out chainpropagation with isocyanic ester or interlinkage reacts, thereby form urea, provide basic hardness and intensity for foam.The water yield is more, and urea is more mutually, and hard segment content improves, and reduce the rebound resilience of goods, otherwise the water yield is fewer, and urea is fewer mutually, and hard segment content is lower, can greatly improve the rebound resilience of goods.So in the present invention, the strict control of the water yield is the 0.1-0.6wt% of polymeric components, also guaranteed the resilience that goods are higher.
Fine-celled foam rebound performance of the present invention improves greatly, and the resilience that can keep freely landing in the time of 25 ℃ can reach 80%-90%, and the reaction sphere that thus prepared by micro-pore elastomer belongs to highly difficult rank, and sportsmen can practise response capacity well.
