Problems solved by technology

[0003] When the silicone foam prepared by the above method is applied to oil-water separation, due to the strong lipophilicity of silicone, it is prone to swelling. Although the absorbed oil will increase, it will lead to a decrease in the mechanical strength of the foam. It is easy to break and fail, and the durability is not ideal; in addition, due to the strong lipophilic characteristics, a large amount of oil still exists in the silicone matrix after the oil is squeezed out, resulting in a decrease in the oil-water separation efficiency

Abstract

The invention discloses a silicone foam with interpenetrating network pH responsiveness. A silicone foam with interpenetrating network pH responsiveness, prepared by the following steps: uniformly mixing 25-90 parts by mass of a silicone resin, 10-75 parts by mass of a pH-responsive monomer and 1-5 parts by mass of an initiator , adding to the template agent, after the air bubbles in the template agent are completely removed, seal it, react at 130-190° C. for 1-10 hours, and then use water to dissolve the template agent to prepare the interpenetrating network pH-responsive silicone foam. The present invention selects a polymerizable silicone system and introduces a pH-responsive polymerizable monomer at the same time. The two molecules are polymerized in one pot, and the interpenetrating network silicone foam is obtained through proper ratio adjustment, which ensures that the silicone foam does not swell. At the same time, it has pH responsiveness, which can realize the transformation from lipophilic to oleophobic, so as to achieve the purpose of oil drainage and improve the oil-water separation rate.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polymer materials and petrochemical technology, and in particular relates to an organic silicon foam with interpenetrating network pH responsiveness. Background technique: [0002] Silicone foam is mainly composed of polydimethylsiloxane, which combines the characteristics of silicone and foam, such as hydrophobicity, lipophilicity and high and low temperature resistance. Common silicone foam preparation methods include chemical methods, physical methods and other methods (Zhang Qian et al. Research progress on silicone foam materials[J]. Journal of Hangzhou Normal University (Natural Science Edition), 2016,15(03):230- 235). The template method is a method commonly used in physical methods. Soluble particles are used as templates, injected with organic silicon raw materials, solidified by hydrosilicon addition reaction, and then dissolved in a solvent to obtain foam. The preparation method is simple and...
