The I.B.-nanotube
Nanotube is SWNT, MWNT or its mixture.Nanotube is pure, partial-purified, thick or functionalized.Thick nanotube comprises spent catalyst and other forms of carbon, and they are the by products during nanotube synthesizes.By product is a decolorizing carbon, RESEARCH OF PYROCARBON, and carbon nano-particle, carbon (carbon onion), soccerballene wraps in the metal nanoparticle in the carbon, carbon fiber.Partial-purified nanotube comprises the by product that can not eliminate in purge process.Spent catalyst is an oxide compound, mixed oxide, and aluminosilicate, zeolite, oxycarbide mixes oxycarbide, carbonate, metal hydroxides, metal nanoparticle etc.
Thick and pure nanotube sample is used for preparing nano composite material.Thick MWNT is at CATALYST Co-Fe/Al (OH) by acetylene 3On, carry out under 700 ℃ that catalytic decomposition forms, thick SWNT be by methane under 950 ℃, at Co/MgO catalyzer or M/MgO *Catalyzer (M=Co, Fe, Ni, Mo or its mixture; The 0.1-50 weight % of M=catalyzer) carries out on that catalytic decomposition forms.The Co/MgO catalyzer is to prepare by the alcoholic solution dipping commodity MgO with cobalt salt, and M/MgO *Catalyzer then is to prepare according to following method: at first, 10 gram MAGNESIUM METAL are imported in the 200 milliliters of alcohol (that is, MeOH, EtOH etc.) that are included in 1 liter of flask, wherein flask equipped has reflux exchanger and mechanical stirrer.After about 5 minutes, following reaction takes place with magnesium in the alcohol beginning:
If the alcohol boiling too, control speed of reaction by the cooling flask.Secondly, by supersound process metal-salt (for example 13.727 is restrained Fe (NO 3) 39H 2O) be dissolved in 50 milliliters of alcohol, under vigorous stirring, join in the alcoholic solution of magnesium then.The very fast generation gelling of solution homogenizes gel but prolong to stir.Afterwards, under agitation 300 ml waters are joined in the gel, form incomplete white gels as described below:
Whole alcohol (250 milliliters) is distilled by component distillation, pack 50 ml waters into to keep the constant volume of gel by per 50 milliliters of overhead products again.At last,, make gel standing over night at room temperature in order to carry out slaking, and with it under super critical condition or preferably by the freeze-drying drying.Dried residue further is heated to 370 ℃ by the speed with 3 ℃/minute under air-flow from room temperature, and keeps 2 hours down and dewater at 370 ℃, afterwards with 6 ℃/minute speed cool to room temperature.The dehydration of back is carried out as described below:

It is the internal mixer preparation of Brabender that the sample 1-12b of table 2 is to use model, and described internal mixer has one 72 milliliters the mixing section that wherein is equipped with the roller sheet.The rotating speed that uses is 45 or 120rpm (table 2).The mixing time of using is 10 minutes, and mixing temperature is 130 or 140 ℃ (table 2).In preferred embodiments, polymer EVA (50g) is imported in the mixing section of 125 ℃ of following preheatings, when polymer melt, adds weighting agent, mixes and delays 10 minutes again.Afterwards, open mixing section, reclaim nano composite material.
The II.B.-solution method
Solution method a:
In the method, the nano composite material component under suitable temperature by dispersed with stirring in solvent.Dispersion depends on the mixing order of various nano composite material compositions.Stirring produces by mechanical means or is formed by ultrasonic wave.Afterwards, perhaps by filtering or desolvating by under suitable temperature, evaporating to remove.They are also can be before mixing independent or non-ly be dispersed in the solvent independently.
Preferred solvent is to be characterised in that solubility parameter approaches those solvents of the polymer matrix solubility parameter of studying.Solvent mixture also is effective.
Tensio-active agent, tensio-active agent also can join in the nano composite material composition and be used for making dispersion to be enhanced as known in the art.Non-solvent (being solubility parameter those solvents away from research polymer matrix solubility parameter) also can join in the nano composite material component disperser before filtering.
Solution method b:
In the method, carbon nanotube and polymkeric substance be as in " solution method a ", under suitable temperature by dispersed with stirring in solvent.Afterwards, perhaps by filtering or desolvating by under suitable temperature, evaporating to remove.Organic clay and extra nano composite material component import by a kind of " mechanical process ".
Solution method c:

III. the mensuration of composite property
III.A-transmission electron microscope (TEM) is analyzed
Study the dispersion of nanotube in polymer matrix with Philips Tecna ǐ T10 by transmission electron microscopy spectrogram (TEM).In order to analyze, composite sample is cut into extremely thin sheet (about 80nm) with ultramicrotome.Then, section is left on the common transmission electron microscope screen.
All there be the dispersion (table 2 and 3 of nanotube in polymer matrix relatively uniformly in all samples; Disperse to reduce order: +++>++>+>->-->---).However, when using MWNT, add organic clay and the weight % that uses thick nanotube and increase nanotube will cause forming more uniform dispersion.When using SWNT, use " oxidation, purifying and cryodesiccated " sample can obtain best dispersion (table 3).Add organic clay and also help the dispersion of SWNT in polymer matrix.
III.B.-TGA analyzes
Carrying out TGA with 20K/ minute speed on polymer EVA (Escorene UL 00328) and EVA based nano composite material in air analyzes.The result is summarized in table 2.
As can be seen from Table 2, for the EVA based nano composite material, its T MaxThan polymer EVA height.According to G.Beyer at Polymer News, described in November calendar year 2001, T MaxBeing second top temperature under the oxidizing condition, therefore is the main degradation peak of EVA degraded.
Relate to the TGA result of the nano composite material that comprises pure MWNT of 2.4 weight % (sample 1) or organic clay (sample 5) from table 2, the aerial heat stabilization of polymkeric substance weighting agent is as follows: organic clay>pure MWNT.
Relate to the TGA result of the nano composite material that comprises the pure MWNT of 4.8 weight % (sample 2), thick MWNT (sample 8a) or organic clay (sample 6) from table 2, the aerial heat stabilization of polymkeric substance weighting agent is as follows: thick MWNT>organic clay>pure MWNT.
Organic clay content is increased to 4.8 weight % from 2.4 weight % and causes T MaxReduce by (table 2).
Different with the effect that increases organic clay content, the content that increases pure MWNT causes T MaxVery little increase (table 2) is arranged.
However, when using the thick MWNT (sample 8a) of 5 weight %, observe aerial maximum heat stabilization.Surprisingly, thermally-stabilised for polymkeric substance, thick MWNT is than the more effective weighting agent of pure MWNT.This improvement may be that to have MWNT, support of the catalyst and catalyzer by the companion caused.
From comprising pure MWNT of 2.4 weight % and 2.4 weight % organic clay (samples 7; The TGA analytical results of nano composite material table 2) is by T MaxClearly as seen, follow the collaborative improved action that uses pure MWNT and organic clay can not cause producing thermally-stabilised aspect as the polymkeric substance weighting agent simultaneously.
The III.C.-cone calorimetry is analyzed
G.Beyer reports in the Polymer in November calendar year 2001 News from engineering viewpoint, importantly know in burning to prevent which type of danger, only in this way could propose to be used for to measure and improved strategy.
At NIST (National Institute for Standards and Technology, USA) broad research draws so important conclusion, this conclusion makes the problem of danger of combustion be able to tangible simplification: rate of heat release, particularly the peak value rate of heat release is unique topmost parameter in the burning, and it can be counted as incendiary " impellent ".
Therefore, current, the selection that is common to the flame retardant polymer engineering test is a cone calorimetry.Its measuring principle is the relation between oxygen depletion and aerial oxygen depletion amount and the thermal discharge.
The standard of cone calorimetry is ASTM E 1354 and ISO 5660.
At polymer EVA (Escorene UL 00328), polymer P E (BP 8063), EVA based nano composite material and the enterprising enforcement 35kW/m of PE based nano composite material 2The cone calorimetry analysis.The result is summarized in table 2 and 3.In these tables, following important parameters is used for characterizing the fire retardation of different polymkeric substance weighting agents.These parameters are:
■ PHRR (rate of heat release peak value), the maximum heatrelease rate in its expression combustion processes.
The ■ fracture density, from the resistates of cone calorimetry analysis estimate (the reduction order of fracture density: +++>++>+>->-->---).
The ■ surface quality, from estimate with the resistates of cone calorimetry analysis (the reduction order of surface quality: +++>++>+>->-->---).
III.C.a.-PHRR result
From the PHRR angle, high-visible by the result of table 2, all filled polymers of use all have improved fire retardation.
For EVA that comprises 2.4 weight % weighting agents and EVA based nano composite material, PHRR reduces in the following order: EVA>organic clay~pure nanotube.
Surprisingly, pure nanotube is the same with the organic clay based nano composite material effective aspect the reduction of PHRR.
For EVA that comprises 4.8 weight % weighting agents and EVA based nano composite material, PHRR reduces in the following order: EVA>organic clay>pure nanotube=thick nanotube.
Surprisingly, thick nanotube is the same with pure nanotube effective aspect the PHRR reduction.
Filler content is increased to 4.8 weight % from 2.4 weight %, if weighting agent is an organic clay, then produces the fire retardation that increases, when using pure or thick MWNT, it is extremely important that the fire retardation of this increase will become.
For the nano composite material (sample 7) that comprises pure MWNT of 2.4 weight % and 2.4 weight % organic claies, observe, between MWNT and organic clay, there is surprising cooperative flame retardant effect.Back one sample is found to be best anti-flaming nano composite material.
From the PHRR angle, when screw speed becomes 120rpm (sample 8b) by 45rpm (sample 8a),, can not cause its flame retardant properties to change for the nano composite material that comprises the thick MWNT of 4.8 weight %.
For PE that comprises 4.8 weight % weighting agents and PE based nano composite material (table 3), PHRR reduces in the following order: pure SWNT>thick SWNT>PE>pure MWNT>thick MWNT.Order is identical concerning the nano composite material that comprises 9.1 weight % weighting agents.
From PHRR with draw such conclusion (table 3) ignitor firing time, MWNT plays the effect of fire retardant in PE, do not reduce ignitor firing time, and SWNT does not play fire retardant in PE.
III.C.b.-fracture density result and surface quality result
For the fire-retardant EVA based nano composite material (table 2) that comprises 2.4 weight % weighting agents, fracture density increases with following order: pure MWNT<organic clay.Again, when nano composite material comprises the pure MWNT of 2.4 weight % and the organic clay of 2.4 weight % (figure Ic), observe fracture density astoundingly and be reduced to zero very important synergistic effect.
The combination of the weighting agent of nanotube and organic clay is used to improve the surprising synergistic effect of flame retardant resistance and can explains by the close-knit surface that improves.This enhanced coke plays isolates and the effect of incombustible material, has reduced volatile products (fuel) and has been dispersed into chance in the flame region.The crack that exists is few more, reduces to distribute and to reduce the effect of PHRR just good more.Filler plays a positive role in the forming process of coke, but clearly, it also makes coke strengthen and make it more anti-machinery and ftractures.
For the fire-retardant EVA based nano composite material (table 2 that comprises 4.8 weight % weighting agents; Fig. 1 a-b), fracture density increases by following order: thick MWNT<pure MWNT<organic clay.
The filler content of EVA based nano composite material is increased to 4.8 weight % (table 2), fracture density reduction when causing using pure MWNT or organic clay from 2.4.
Observe similar flame retardant properties with listed dissimilar thick or pure SWNT in the table 1.In the middle of the nano composite material that comprises thick or pure SWNT, observe preferable performance with SWNT-2 and-3.SWNT-2 and-3 better performances may be since the nanotube content in the sample higher due to.For " oxidation, purifying and cryodesiccated " SWNT-1 ,-2 and-3 samples, the performance of observation even better.Improve back one may be because SWNT disperses sufficient result in nano composite material.
The III.D.-conductivity measurement
Description of test:
Use four-wire method to measure resistivity.Sample is cut into is of a size of 60 millimeters * 20 millimeters * 2.8 millimeters small pieces.
Form point of contact by copper wire (2 millimeters of diameters) and silver paste.Along coiling fixedly V and I electrode: be I-V-V-I.V-V and V-I distance between electrodes are respectively 35 millimeters and 12 millimeters.Use 4 line microohm meters (Burnster, model is P133/0020) to measure the resistance between the V electrode.Use Pouillet rule calculated resistance rate.
The result:
Along with the increase of nanotube concentration in matrix material, resistivity reduces.When with the pure MWNT of 2.4 weight %, resistivity is higher than 2 * 10 3Ohmcm, but when with the pure MWNT of 4.8 weight %, resistivity but is reduced to and is lower than 10 ohmcms.
Surprisingly, in the matrix material that contains 2.4 weight %MWNT, add the organic clay of 2.4 weight %, can make resistivity from being higher than 2 * 10 3Ohmcm is reduced to about 8 * 10 1Ohmcm.The reduction of back one resistivity is because nanotube is dispersed in the polymeric matrix that the synergy by organic clay and carbon nanotube obtains causes.
According to concentration and blending means, resistivity value is found and is in 8 ohmcms and 8 * 10 12Between the ohmcm.
In general, show that the resistivity of nano composite material of the present invention is 10 -4Ohmcm-8 * 10 12Between the ohmcm, preferred 1 ohmcm-10 3Ohmcm.
