A kind of preparation method of halogen-free flame retardant polylactic acid composite material
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of halogen-free flame retardant polylactic acid composite material.
Background technology
Along with the raising of environmental consciousness, the degradable biological macromolecular material is paid close attention to widely in recent years, and the exploitation of this class material and preparation are also popular at present research topics.Wherein, poly(lactic acid) (also claims polylactide, polylactide, PLA, belong to aliphatic polyester) as a kind of the most typical, application is biodegradable plastic more widely, can be that main raw material carries out the polymerization preparation with lactic acid, raw material sources fully and can regenerate (for example, with corn, cassavas etc. are starting material), the production process of poly(lactic acid) is pollution-free, in physical environment and certain condition and can be broken down into again carbonic acid gas under the time and water return to the nature circle (again joining in the photosynthesis process of plant), realization is in the circulation of occurring in nature, there is good degradability and compostability.In addition, poly(lactic acid) has higher Rigidity and strength, does not need to add the materials such as glass and just can reach general electronics and the needed mechanical property of device such as electric.
The topmost performance factor of restriction poly(lactic acid) application is that its thermotolerance is very poor at present, easily burning.In fact, this is also the total shortcomings of most degradable biological macromolecular materials.Poly(lactic acid) under room temperature generally is vitreous state, with other biodegradated polymer materal, to compare its rigidity better, but its thermotolerance is very poor (for example, 0.45MPa the heat-drawn wire under load is only 55 ℃), its flame retardant properties belongs to the UL94HB level, burning easily, makes the application of poly(lactic acid) be limited by very large.Such as for electronics and the fire-retardant device such as electric, just being subject to difficulty.Therefore, improve flame retardant resistance, the thermotolerance of poly(lactic acid) extremely important for the Application Areas of widening poly(lactic acid).
For improving the performance of poly-lactic acid material, common way is by blending and modifying, improves heat-drawn wire and the moulding processability (demoulding, shortening shaping cycle etc.) of material.In the correlative study of the preparation and modification of poly(lactic acid), thermotolerance aspect: have the people once to propose with CaCO
3, TiO
2and BaSO
4inorganic salt add in poly(lactic acid) as nucleator, but can't realize suitability for industrialized production so far; Also someone adopts talcum powder as nucleator, this is the current nucleator in unique industrial production that can be applied to poly(lactic acid), but talcous particle diameter, content, shape alignment degree etc. are very large to the crystallization nucleation influential effect of poly(lactic acid), cause the more difficult control of industrial production of poly(lactic acid).For example, talcous particle diameter is too little, and the dispersed bad secondary aggregation that causes producing can not be given full play to the effect of crystallization nucleation, and the problem of poor heat resistance can not fully be solved; Particle diameter is too large, and talc particle can become the defect in moulded products again, on physical property or the condition of surface of poly-lactic acid material, can cause bad impact; When content is too low, only generate a small amount of nuclei of crystallization, cause material thermal resistance insufficient, too high levels, easily cause the poly-lactic acid material embrittlement, and physical property is caused to detrimentally affect.In addition, in the industrial production application process, talcous dust can bring harm to operator healthy.Also someone adopts the crystallization nucleating agent that the tetrafluoroethylene based polymer is poly(lactic acid), improve the thermotolerance of poly(lactic acid), yet, viscous deformation (creep) can occur in its goods under the long-time continuous load, also has in addition poor fluidity, processing difficulties, linear expansivity are large, do not degrade under natural condition, and during high temperature, degradation production has the hypertoxic perfluoroisobutylene of minute quantity.PLA, because it has good biocompatibility and degradation property, has been widely used in biomedical sector, but the application of present stage PLA still is restricted, and this is mainly due to the poly(lactic acid) existent defect: property is crisp, and shock resistance is poor; To thermally labile, price.For overcoming above-mentioned shortcoming, must carry out modification to poly(lactic acid), wherein blending and modifying is one of focus of research.The blending and modifying of poly(lactic acid) mainly refers to regulate the proportioning between two components by selecting suitable blend components, improves the consistency of component and adopts the different means such as forming materials working method, can obtain the type material that meets each generic request.The people is arranged at present in the halogen-free flame-proof polylactic acid of research, also not high to the requirement of goods flame retardant rating, mechanical property, surface properties, processing characteristics and tinctorial property.For example, the aluminium hydroxide of halogen-free non-phosphor, flame retardant of magnesium hydroxide, shortcoming is must be very large for reaching good flame retardant effect loading level, about 40-60% (massfraction).Large like this loading level must cause the mobility variation of resin when mixing, moulding and the physical property of products formed to reduce.Adopt the main drawback of phosphorus flame retardant to be: resistance to elevated temperatures is poor.Also someone studies nitrogen system, silicon-series five-retardant polydactyl acid, but the performance of goods is restricted.
