Description

Polypropylene-based composite film and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of plastic films, in particular to a polypropylene-based composite film and a preparation method thereof.
Background
With the popularization of whole house customization, the demand of people for decorative home is gradually increased. The whole house customized furniture mostly adopts artificial boards such as particle boards, density boards, splice boards and the like as main bodies, and because the wood sources are different in color, and in addition, in order to take care of the preference of different groups of people to different color styles, customized furniture manufacturers often stick decorative film materials on artificial boards to form various decorative styles, so that the door/cabinet boards are more attractive and durable and have bright and uniform color.
The materials used by the current decorative film are mainly divided into two types: one type of decorative paper is the paper which comprises impregnated bond paper, pre-painted paper, melamine paper and the like, and is adhered to the surface of furniture after pattern printing and surface treatment are carried out on the paper. However, the decorative paper has poor water resistance and wear resistance, is easy to mildew, cannot avoid the release of formaldehyde, and is difficult to meet the high-end application requirements. The other decorative film material is polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which has the series advantages of good printing property, bright color, capability of impressing simulated wood grains, soft touch, good conformability and the like, and is widely applied to high-end panel furniture. However, PVC also has some disadvantages, such as poor heat resistance and aging resistance, is easy to yellow and discolor after long-time illumination, generates toxic hydrogen chloride gas during combustion, can cause certain fire safety hidden dangers, and is not beneficial to recovery and treatment.
In order to overcome the above-mentioned performance defects of PVC, decorative films based on polypropylene (PP) have been produced. The PP has good wear resistance, heat resistance, water resistance, aging resistance, chemical solvent resistance and good mechanical property, integrates the advantages of decorative paper and PVC films, and in addition, the PP does not contain chlorine element and heavy metal, and the waste can be recycled, thereby being an ideal raw material for a new generation of environment-friendly decorative films. Compared with the PVC material which is widely used at present, the PP material has the greatest difference that the polarity of the material is different, the PP material belongs to a non-polar material, and the PVC material is a polar material. The nonpolar PP surface has poor compatibility with the existing water-based ink, is difficult to print, and has poor adhesion on the surface of the ink.

The polymerization monomer of the PA is preferably aliphatic or alicyclic amine or acid, and can be PA6, PA12, PA610, PA1010 or special long-carbon-chain polyamide. In some embodiments, the melting point of PA is 180-260 ℃, preferably 200-250 ℃, which is beneficial for processing and molding. In some embodiments, the relative viscosity of the PA is greater than or equal to 3.0, preferably greater than or equal to 3.3, and PA with a relative viscosity in this range has a higher melt strength, which is beneficial for ensuring the strength and flatness of the film during the forming process.

Comparative example of Effect
Comparative example 1: comparative example 1 a polypropylene-based film was provided, which was prepared in the same manner as in example 1 except that the tie layer and the printed layer were not included.
Comparative example 2: comparative example 2 provides a polypropylene-based composite film, which was prepared in the same manner as in example 1, except that the tie layer was not included.
Comparative example 3: comparative example 3 provides a polypropylene-based film subjected to surface corona treatment, which was prepared by the following method: the polypropylene-based film obtained in comparative example 1 was subjected to a surface polarization treatment by high-voltage corona so that the surface tension coefficient of the film was 50dyn/cm or more.
The polypropylene-based composite films of examples 1 to 3 and the samples of comparative examples 1 to 3 were subjected to evaluations of printing properties and compounding properties, and the evaluation results are shown in table 4, as follows:
printing performance was used to evaluate the adhesion of printing inks on films by the test method: the sample film was cut out and the film size was fixed at 30cm by 30 cm. The film samples were coated centrally with a commercially available water-based ink, with a coating area of 20cm by 20cm and an ink layer thickness of 0.02mm, placed in an oven at 100 ℃ for 1h, removed and placed at ambient temperature for 24h before testing. The ink adhesion is tested by adopting a grid cutting method according to the method of the national standard GB/T9286, and the adhesion grade is divided into six grades from good to bad, namely 0-5. And randomly selecting at least 5 areas of the same sample for testing, and recording the maximum value of the adhesive force grade as a test result.
The composite performance is used for evaluating the bonding performance between layers of the multilayer film, and the test method comprises the following steps: film samples were cut 20cm by 1cm, softened by heating the port using a heat gun, and the multilayer film was separated with a sharp-pointed forceps while hot. After the sample is completely cooled, the two separated films are respectively placed at two ends of a universal mechanical testing machine, and the peel strength of the films is tested. The same sample was tested 5 times on average and the average was recorded as the test result.
As can be seen from Table 4, the surface printing performance of the polypropylene-based composite films prepared in examples 1 to 3 is significantly improved, the adhesion to conventional water-based inks reaches the highest level, and the actual application requirements can be met, compared with the samples of comparative examples 1 to 3. The printing layer is a polar material, the surface performance of the printing layer cannot be attenuated along with time, the printing layer can still keep good printability after being placed for six months, and the printing adhesion grade reaches the highest grade. In addition, the polypropylene-based composite film prepared by the method can connect the polar printing layer material and the nonpolar PP base material into a unified whole after the connecting layer is introduced, does not warp and delaminate, and has good composite performance.
