The entirety of each of the above-mentioned patent applications is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this specification.


TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to polyurethane sealing material and a preparation method and an application thereof.


BACKGROUND

Polyurethane elastomer is a type of polymer material that contains a large amount of carbamate groups in its main chain, and is a block copolymer with alternating hard segments and soft segments formed by the reaction of isocyanate with polyol (polyether, polyester). Polyurethane elastomer is a type of material that lies between rubber and plastic, with a wide variety of raw materials, diverse formulations, and a broad range of adjustable properties.


As sealing material, such as polyurethane sealants, and polyurethane sealing gaskets (polyurethane sealing rings), polyurethane has a wide range of applications. Characterized by resistance to wear, oil, acid and alkali, ozone, aging, low temperature, tearing, impact, and the like, the polyurethane sealing rings have great load-bearing capacity and are widely used in various fields, including household appliances, where common household vacuum cleaners utilize sealing rings.


However, the existing polyurethane sealing materials (polyurethane sealing gaskets/polyurethane sealing rings) have the following problems: sealing products made of polyether polyurethane material alone exhibit poor resistance to media and aging, as well as poor wear resistance and permanent compression set.


Filter elements are one of the indispensable “three filters” for internal combustion engines, such as automobiles, ships, construction machinery, and generator sets. With the rapid development of the automobile industry in China, especially the development of the car industry, demands for filter elements have been increasing. Compared with traditional filter elements, polyurethane filter elements feature light weight, easy to process, high production efficiency, and low energy consumption. At present, the automobile industry worldwide has extensively employed the polyurethane elastomers as materials of the filter elements.


However, the market has raised higher requirements for the service life and aging resistance of the filter elements, this is mainly because: firstly, advancements in the automobile technology and the rising consumer expectations demand for better air quality in the cabin. Traditional filter elements suffer relatively significant compression deformation through a long period of compression, resulting in worse sealing effects; and secondly, as an engine compartment temperature rises during long-distance driving or in extreme conditions, the service life of traditional polyurethane sealing rings will be shortened due to aging and fragmentation of seal strips caused by high temperature, requiring frequent replacement of air filter elements, thereby increasing the maintenance costs. Therefore, many original equipment manufacturers have set higher standards for the filter elements. Therefore, it is very necessary to develop a polyurethane air filter element with excellent aging resistance, high mechanical strength, and low permanent compression set.


The Chinese Patent CN105111395A discloses a preparation method of an automobile polyurethane air filter element, including the following steps: reacting 70-90 parts by mass of polyether polyol, 10-40 parts by mass of polyester polyol, 1-4 parts by mass of diethylene glycol, 2-6 parts by mass of triethanolamine, 2-8 parts by mass of black polyether pulp, and 1-10 parts by mass of triethylene diamine at 40° C.-80° C. for 2-4 h to obtain liquid A; reacting the same at 60° C.-100° C. for 4-8 h to obtain liquid B; starting a machine to inject glue, where a mass ratio of the liquid A to the liquid B is 100:15-30; inserting a filter paper core after the glue is injected, demolding after 6-8 min to obtain the automobile polyurethane air filter element. The preparation method of the automobile polyurethane air filter element in the patent is simple and easy to carry out. The prepared liquid B does not crystallize even at −40° C., overcoming the cumbersome heating and dissolving steps in the preparation process. The resulting automobile polyurethane air filter element has good flexibility and mechanical strength. However, the patent fails to provide the data of service life and aging of the product.

Based on the comparison between Examples 1-6 and Comparative Example 1 in Table 3, it can be seen that the polyurethane sealing materials prepared by adding the polyether carbonate polyol in the formulations have better elongation at break, tensile strength, and tear strength after aging than those under normal conditions, such that the prepared polyurethane sealing materials can be better used in life, especially under high-temperature conditions. In addition, the prepared polyurethane sealing materials have lower permanent compression set and can reach better technical effects.


The present disclosure adopts polyether polyol with a molecular weight of 6000 MW, which contains highly active EO groups, ensuring the post-curing of a sealing ring system of the polyurethane sealing material and improving production efficiency. The polyether carbonate polyol is also used. Although conventional polycarbonate polyols have low reactivity, and their ester bonds have high bond energy, which can impart high mechanical properties to the product. Nevertheless, existing polycarbonate polyols at room temperature have extremely high viscosity, the present disclosure adopts low-viscosity polyether carbonate polyol, which not only contains carbonate bonds but also exhibits polyether characteristics, and can maintain a low viscosity at room temperature, making it suitable for incorporating into the sealing ring system and meeting its processing requirements, such that mechanical properties of the product are greatly improved, and the product, combined with the polymer polyol, can maintain a high open porosity, as well as appropriate curing and initial hardness. Finally, low-functionality isocyanate and a proper ratio can make the entire system flexible and resilient.

Based on the comparison between Examples 7-12 and Comparative Example 2 in Table 5, it can be seen that the polyurethane sealing materials prepared by adding the polyether carbonate polyol in the formulations do not exhibit great degradation in terms of elongation at break, tensile strength, and tear strength after 168 h of aging, and can meet the use in daily household conditions. In addition, the prepared polyurethane sealing materials have lower permanent compression set and can reach better technical effects.
