基于试验与分子模拟的PAPO-MP/HDPE阻燃复合材料性能表征

Performance Characterization of PAPO-MP/HDPE Flame-Retardant Composites Based on Experiments and Molecular Simulation

  • 摘要: 针对高密度聚乙烯(HDPE)阻燃性能较差且传统阻燃改性方法易损害其力学与电学性能的问题,以焦磷酸哌嗪(PAPP)与聚磷酸三聚氰胺(MPP)为原料,合成无卤嵌段共聚物PAPO-MP,并将其作为阻燃剂,制备PAPO-MP/HDPE复合材料。结合实验测试与分子动力学模拟,系统分析了PAPO-MP对HDPE阻燃、力学及电学性能的影响。实验结果表明,当PAPO与MP质量比为7∶3时,PAPO-MP/HDPE复合材料阻燃性能最佳:极限氧指数提升至30.2%,阻燃等级达到UL-94 V-0等级;同时,该配比下PAPO-MP/HDPE复合材料拉伸强度为16.2MPa,断裂伸长率达224.5%,介电常数为2.093,介质损耗因数低至2.2%,表现出良好的力学与电学性能。在此基础上,进一步通过分子动力学模拟计算了PAPO-MP/HDPE复合材料的力学与电气性能参数,结果表明,当PAPO与MP质量比为7∶3时,复合材料的力学与电学性能最优,与实验结果一致。本文设计制备的PAPO-MP/HDPE复合材料兼具优异的阻燃性能、力学强度及电学性能,为HDPE综合性能的优化提供了实验与理论依据。

     

    Abstract: To address the issues that high-density polyethylene (HDPE) exhibits poor flame retardancy and traditional flame-retardant modification methods tend to impair its mechanical and electrical properties, a halogen-free block copolymer (PAPO-MP) was synthesized using piperazine pyrophosphate (PAPP) and melamine polyphosphate (MPP) as raw materials. This copolymer was then used as a flame retardant to prepare PAPO-MP/HDPE composites. Combined with experimental tests and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, the effects of PAPO-MP on the flame-retardant, mechanical, and electrical properties of HDPE were systematically analyzed. The experimental results show that when the mass ratio of PAPP to MPP is 7∶3, the PAPO-MP/HDPE composite achieves the optimal flame retardancy: the limiting oxygen index (LOI) is increased to 30.2%, and the flame-retardant grade reaches UL-94 V-0. Meanwhile, under this ratio, the composite exhibits excellent mechanical and electrical properties, with a tensile strength of 16.2 MPa, an elongation at break of 224.5%, a dielectric constant of 2.093, and a dielectric loss factor as low as 2.2%. Furthermore, MD simulations were performed to calculate the mechanical and electrical property parameters of the PAPO-MP/HDPE composite. The simulation results indicate that the composite also achieves the best mechanical and electrical properties when the mass ratio of PAPP to MPP is 7∶3, which is consistent with the experimental results. The PAPO-MP/HDPE composite designed and prepared in this study possesses outstanding flame retardancy, mechanical strength, and electrical properties, providing experimental and theoretical basis for the optimization of the comprehensive performance of HDPE.
