FIG. 1 is a synthetic route of polybutadiene-based flexible fast photocurable resin of the present invention; the resin synthesized by the invention is free radical type light-cured resin. After ultraviolet irradiation, the free radical type photoinitiator absorbs energy and is cracked into active free radicals, the acrylate structure at the end of the polybutadiene-based light-cured resin is activated by the active free radicals to polymerize, and unsaturated double bonds of the acrylate structure are opened to form crosslinking. Along with the reaction, the molecular weight in the system is rapidly increased, the crosslinking points are increased continuously, and the elastomer is formed. The elastomer contains a large amount of crosslinking points, so that the elastomer has better mechanical properties.

secondly, most of the existing modified polybutadiene light-cured resin is low in curing speed, and the resin flows while being cured in the curing process, so that the formed product is uneven in thickness and irregular in structure; the polybutadiene photocuring resin prepared by the invention has a multi-acrylate group structure at two ends, can be rapidly crosslinked and cured within 20s after being irradiated by ultraviolet light to form an elastomer, and meets the use requirement.

TABLE 1 examples and comparative experiments content composition and physical properties of polybutadiene-based flexible fast photocurable resin
As can be seen from Table 1, when isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) was used as a chain extender to modify hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene, it was found that the prepared photocurable resin had an extremely high viscosity, and rod climbing and gel formation occurred, resulting in experimental failure. The higher the content of the hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene, the lower the viscosity, because the hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene itself has a lower viscosity, and the higher the content, which corresponds to diluting the system, the lower the viscosity. The hydroxyl value of the polybutadiene also becomes larger with the increase of the content of hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene, because the hydroxyl value is inevitably increased with the increase of the content of unreacted hydroxyl-terminated liquid polybutadiene in the system.
The UV curing speed and the reaction heat of the polybutadiene-based flexible rapid photo-curing resin are characterized by using UV-DSC. Weighing polybutadiene-based flexible rapid photo-curing resin, adding a photoinitiator 819, wherein the photoinitiator 819 accounts for 3% of the mass of the polybutadiene-based flexible rapid photo-curing resin, continuously stirring to dissolve the photoinitiator, then placing in vacuum to wait for bubbles to disappear, and then carrying out ultraviolet irradiation, wherein each time the ultraviolet irradiation is carried out, the ultraviolet irradiation is carried outThe sub-exposure time is 5s, the exposure is carried out once in 2min, the total exposure time is 23 times, the nitrogen atmosphere and the ultraviolet intensity are 500mW/cm 2 。
When the terminal hydroxyl group of the hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene was modified with acryloyl chloride to have a monoacrylate group at the terminal, the viscosity of the modified product was reduced, and the photocuring rate was found to be far inferior to that of the modified product using oxalyl chloride or pentaerythritol triacrylate. The influence of different hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene contents on the curing speed of the polybutadiene-based flexible rapid photocuring resin is found that the more HTPB, the lower the photocuring speed, and the details are as follows:
FIG. 2 is a UV-DSC curve with 1 being MHTPB-1, 2 being MHTPB-2, 3 being MHTPB-3, 4 being MHTPB-4, 6 being MHTPB-acryloyl chloride. As can be seen from FIG. 2, acryloyl chloride has a monoacrylate structure, and the modified hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene has less initial heat release and total heat release, and the photocuring rate is relatively slow, while pentaerythritol triacrylate and oxalyl chloride modified hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene have faster curing rate. The heat value of the primary photocuring reaction of the four modified HTPB photosensitive resins is reduced sequentially from 102J/g to 69.91J/g along with the increase of the content of the hydroxyl-terminated liquid polybutadiene. This is caused by the content difference of unsaturated acrylate structure in four modified HTPB photosensitive resin systems (MHTPB-1 > MHTPB-2 > MHTPB-3 > MHTPB-4), when the types and the contents of the photoinitiators PI are the same, the curing speed is faster when the unsaturated acrylate structure is more in the same time, and the heat value of the photocuring reaction is larger. After 23 exposures, the four modified photosensitive resins are completely cured, and the total photocuring reaction heat value is also reduced in sequence, which is also caused by the content difference of unsaturated acrylate in the four modified HTPB photosensitive resins (MHTPB-1 > MHTPB-2 > MHTPB-3 > MHTPB-4). In addition, the first four photocuring reactions are much exothermic and account for about 75% of the total curing reaction, with MHTPB-1 being as high as 80.43%, and these results indicate that the four photosensitive resins all possess fast photocuring speed and almost complete curing can be achieved within 20 s.
TABLE 2 heat value of photocuring reaction of five modified hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene photocuring resins
MHTPB-1, MHTPB-2, MHTPB-3 and MHTPB-4 are poured into a dumbbell-shaped mold to prepare a dumbbell-shaped test piece (the middle part is 5cm multiplied by 0.5cm multiplied by 2mm) with the size of 11.5cm multiplied by 2.5cm multiplied by 2mm, and the transparency and the flexibility of the elastomer after the four polybutadiene-based light-cured resins are subjected to comparative study according to the dumbbell-shaped test piece. Weighing polybutadiene photocuring resin, adding a photoinitiator 819, wherein the photoinitiator 819 accounts for 3% of the mass of the polybutadiene photocuring resin, continuously stirring to dissolve the photoinitiator, then placing in vacuum for waiting for bubbles to disappear, taking a mercury lamp as an ultraviolet light source, and keeping the ultraviolet light intensity at 500mW/cm 2 Irradiating at room temperature 20cm away from the resin for 2 min.
Tests show that MHTPB-3 and MHTPB-4 can be folded in half without breaking, and MHTPB-1 and MHTPB-2 can be broken in the folding process and have relatively poor flexibility. FIG. 3 is a picture showing the flexibility of MHTPB-4, and it can be seen that the MHTPB-4 resin cured elastomer is bent and released again, and the MHTPB-4 resin is unbroken, which shows that the flexibility is good.
FIG. 4 is a comparative example of flexibility of MHTPB-1, MHTPB-2, MHTPB-3 and MHTPB-4 being bent by its own weight by an iron stand horizontally clamping them; as can be seen, MHTPB-1 has the lowest flexibility, MHTPB-4 has the best flexibility, and the flexibility of MHTPB elastomer is gradually increased along with the increase of the content of HTPB, because HTPB has no rigid group and has good flexibility, and the addition of the HTPB causes the reduction of the crosslinking density of the system to reduce the rigidity of the elastomer, so that MHTPB-4 has the best flexibility.
FIG. 5 is a graph showing the transparency of MHTPB-1, MHTPB-2, MHTPB-3 and MHTPB-4 in comparison. As can be seen, the four MHTPB elastomers all have good transparency, and the following fonts and patterns can still be clearly seen by using the dumbbell shape.
Thermal stability characterization is carried out on four photosensitive resins by adopting a thermogravimetric analysis method, wherein fig. 6 is a thermogravimetric weight loss curve, 1 is MHTPB-1, 2 is MHTPB-2, 3 is MHTPB-3, and 4 is MHTPB-4; FIG. 7 is a graph of rate of thermal weight loss, 1 being MHTPB-1, 2 being MHTPB-2, 3 being MHTPB-3, 4 being MHTPB-4; as can be seen, the Tg and DTG curves of the four photosensitive resins are substantially identical in shape and orientation. When the degradation of the four photosensitive resins reached 10%, the temperatures were almost all above 350 ℃, indicating that there were almost no unreacted small molecular substances in the resin system. The points of the four photosensitive resins with the fastest thermal degradation rate are consistent and are all at about 450 ℃, molecular bonds of an unsaturated acrylate structure and a polybutadiene main chain structure in a resin system are rapidly broken at the moment, and the mass loss is fastest at the moment.
FIG. 8 is an FTIR spectrum with 1 being MHTPB-1, 2 being MHTPB-2, 3 being MHTPB-3, 4 being MHTPB-4, 5 being HTPB. As can be seen, 3341cm -1 The broad absorption peak at (E) is due to stretching vibration of-OH, 2915cm -1 The absorption peak belongs to-CH 3 and-CH 2 Caused by stretching vibration of (2), 1720cm -1 The sharp absorption peak at (A) is due to the stretching vibration of-C ═ O, 1157cm -1 The absorption peak of (A) is formed by the stretching vibration of C-O-C, and finally 1636cm -1 And 813cm -1 The two absorption peaks are due to-C ═ CH 2 The comparison shows that the hydroxyl absorption peak of the HTPB resin modified by oxalyl chloride and PETA is obviously reduced, and absorption peaks of-C ═ O, -C ═ CH, C-O-C and the like different from HTPB appear.
FIG. 9 is CDCl 3 Of medium HTPB and four MHTPB 1 The H NMR spectrum showed MHTPB-1 at 1, MHTPB-2 at 2, MHTPB-3 at 3, MHTPB-4 at 4, and HTPB at 5. As can be seen from the figure, the absorption peak at a chemical shift of about 4.80 to 5.69ppm is a proton absorption peak in a C ═ C double bond structure, and the absorption peak at a chemical shift of 4.08ppm is a proton absorption peak of-OH in which-CH linked to a hydroxyl group is present 2 -has a proton absorption peak at 3.45ppm and a chemical shift absorption peak at 1.80-2.15 ppm of-CH associated with-C ═ C-double bond 2 -proton absorption peak of (a). Through comparison, after the hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene is modified, the absorption peaks at 4.80-5.69 ppm and 1.80-2.15 ppm are not changed, but the proton absorption peak of-OH at 4.08ppm almost completely disappears, and new proton absorption peaks appear at chemical shifts of 4.25, 4.63, 5.88, 6.11 and 6.38ppm, wherein the absorption peak at 4.25ppm is-CH associated with ester group 2 Absorption peak of (E), 4.63ppm is-CH linked to-O-bond 2 -and the other three absorption peaks are proton absorption peaks of unsaturated double bonds in the acrylate structure. The above results have fully demonstrated that pentaerythritol triacrylate has been completely grafted onto hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene.
FIG. 10 is a dynamic mechanical analysis curve, 1 being MHTPB-1, 2 being MHTPB-2, 3 being MHTPB-3, 4 being MHTPB-4. Wherein the storage modulus of MHTPB-1 is the highest and reaches 2290.05MPA, the storage modulus of MHTPB-3 is the lowest and is 1610.57MPa, and the storage modulus of MHTPB-1 is firstly reduced and then increased along with the increase of HTPB.
FIG. 11 is a graph of loss factor versus temperature for MHTPB-1 at 1, MHTPB-2 at 2, MHTPB-3 at 3, and MHTPB-4 at 4. As can be seen from the figure, the glass transition temperature of four MHTPB decreases from-56.37 ℃ to-62.02 ℃ with the increase of the HTPB content, the glass transition temperature is related to the structure of the crosslinking density compound, and under the condition that the structure of the compound is unchanged, the increase of HTPB reduces the relative content of the acrylate structure of MHTPB, thereby reducing the crosslinking density of the elastomer and slightly reducing Tg. For thermosets, the height of the Tan δ peak is related to the crosslink density, with higher Tan δ peaks having lower crosslink densities.
The crosslinking density of the elastomer is calculated according to a rubber elasticity theoretical formula:
wherein E' is the storage modulus of the rubber plateau area and the unit is MPa; tg is the glass transition temperature in units of ℃; r is a general gas constant, T is an absolute temperature and has a unit of K; the crosslink densities of the four MMHTPBs were calculated using the storage modulus at Tg + 40K. The mechanical properties of the four MHTPBs are specified in Table 3, from which it can be seen that the MHTPB-1 has the highest crosslinking density and the MHTPB-4 has the lowest crosslinking density, in line with the fact.
TABLE 3 mechanical Properties of the four MHTPBs
In the table a Temperature at which 10% by mass is degraded; b peak temperature of thermal degradation rate; c storage modulus; d glass transition temperature; e storage modulus at Tg + 40K; f the crosslink density.
The mechanical properties of the cured elastomers of the four MHTPB were compared and studied by tensile tests, and their flexibility was evaluated according to Young's modulus (E) and elongation at break (ε), and the effect of HTPB content on the flexibility of MHTPB elastomers was discussed, and the specific results are listed in Table 4. The magnitude of the Young's modulus marks the rigidity of the material, and the larger the Young's modulus, the less likely it will deform and the harder the object. The comparison shows that the Young modulus of MHTPB-1 is the largest because 30% of diluent MMA is added in the synthesis process, the density of acrylate groups is higher, a large number of cross-linking points are quickly formed after the acrylate groups are cured, so that the whole elastomer is harder, the density of the acrylate groups in the system is reduced along with the increase of the content of hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene rubber, the cross-linking points of the real system are reduced, and the molecular chain movement is simpler, so that the Young modulus is smaller. The breaking elongation is also the same, with the increase of the content of hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene rubber, the density of cross-linking points is reduced, and molecular chains are more flexible, so that the breaking elongation is gradually increased and reaches up to 20.54 +/-0.73%.
