Technical Field

The invention belongs to the technical field of carbon dioxide-based biodegradable coatings/adhesives, and relates to a carbon dioxide-based copolymer and a preparation method thereof, epoxy-terminated polycyclohexene carbonate and application thereof, in particular to a low-molecular-weight carbon dioxide-cyclohexene oxide copolymer and a preparation method thereof, and epoxy-terminated polycyclohexene carbonate and application thereof.

Background

The thermosetting epoxy resin has good comprehensive mechanical property, excellent insulativity, good cohesive force, small shrinkage and good stability, and can be widely used as a coating, an adhesive, a composite material resin matrix, an electronic packaging material, a pouring material and the like in the fields of chemical industry, machinery, electronics, aerospace and the like. The traditional epoxy resin takes bisphenol A and other petrochemical products as raw materials, generates huge consumption on fossil energy, is difficult to recover, causes huge waste on resources, and pollutes the environment. Therefore, the development of the biodegradable epoxy resin with renewable resources as raw materials is of great significance.

At present, bio-based epoxy resin is taken as a hotspot of current research, and an epoxy group is obtained by modifying a compound with biological origin through subsequent reaction and is used as epoxy resin to replace the traditional petroleum-based material. Although the sources of bio-based resources are wide, the purification steps of bio-based resources are often complicated, and multiple post-modifications are often needed to reach the use standard, so that the cost of the product is increased. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and is also a renewable carbon-oxygen resource, and the high-value utilization of carbon dioxide in the chemical industry is a research hotspot in recent years. Can be copolymerized with an epoxy compound under the catalysis of a proper catalyst to obtain a polymer, so that the carbon dioxide is fixed, and the polymer is endowed with economic value and environmental protection value, and at present, the copolymerization product of the carbon dioxide and the propylene oxide, namely the poly (lactide-co-carbonate) (PPC), is already taken as a biodegradable product to realize industrial production, and has wide application in the aspects of mulching films and food packaging. The copolymer of carbon dioxide and cyclohexene oxide, namely the polycyclohexene carbonate (PCHC), has high glass transition temperature and mechanical strength, but has poor elongation at break, and is difficult to directly process and utilize.

Therefore, how to obtain a high-performance PCHC material and realize the application thereof is a research focus in the field of carbon dioxide-based materials, and is one of the focuses of great concern of many prospective researchers in the field.
