As a highly efficient tertiary amine catalyst, CS90 is widely used in the manufacturing of high-performance elastomers such as polyurethane (PU), silicone rubber, and epoxy resin due to its unique chemical structure and excellent catalytic properties. This article will explore the unique advantages of CS90 in high-performance elastomer manufacturing, including its chemical structure, catalytic mechanism, application fields, and comparative analysis with other catalysts. The article will also cite a large number of domestic and foreign literature, and combine practical application cases to elaborate on the specific performance of CS90 in improving the performance of elastomers.

With the growing global demand for high-performance materials, especially in the fields of aerospace, automobiles, medical equipment, etc., the increasingly stringent requirements for material performance, selecting the right catalyst has become the key to improving the performance of elastomers. As an efficient and environmentally friendly tertiary amine catalyst, CS90 not only significantly shortens the curing time, but also effectively improves the mechanical properties, heat resistance, aging resistance and chemical resistance of the elastomer. Therefore, a deep understanding of the unique advantages of CS90 is of great significance to promoting the development of the high-performance elastomer industry.

The chemical structure and physical properties of CS90

CS90 is a typical tertiary amine catalyst with a chemical name N,N-dimethylcyclohexylamine (DMCHA). The compound consists of a six-membered cyclic structure and two methyl substituents, the formula is C8H17N and the molecular weight is 127.23 g/mol. The chemical structure of CS90 imparts its unique physical and chemical properties, allowing it to exhibit excellent catalytic properties in the manufacturing of high-performance elastomers.

1. Chemical structure characteristics

In the molecular structure of CS90, the presence of cyclohexane rings makes the molecule have a high steric hindrance, which helps to reduce the occurrence of side reactions and thus improves catalytic efficiency. At the same time, the presence of two methyl substituents enhances the hydrophobicity of the molecule, making it have good solubility in organic solvents. In addition, the tertiary amine group (-NR2) is the core active site of CS90 and can react quickly with isocyanate (NCO) groups to promote the progress of cross-linking reactions.

2. Physical properties

The physical properties of CS90 are shown in Table 1:

Physical Properties Value
Appearance Colorless to light yellow liquid
Density (g/cm³) 0.85-0.87
Melting point (°C) -45
Boiling point (°C) 165-167
Flash point (°C) 55
Solution Easy soluble in organic solvents
Refractive index (nD20) 1.438

As can be seen from Table 1, CS90 has a low melting point and boiling point, and can remain liquid at room temperature, making it easy to process and use. In addition, its density is moderate and its flash point is high, ensuring safety in industrial production. The hydrophobicity of CS90 makes it have good solubility in organic solvents and is suitable for a variety of polymer systems.

3. Chemical Stability

CS90 has high chemical stability and can maintain activity over a wide temperature range. Studies have shown that CS90 can maintain good catalytic performance at high temperatures, especially in environments above 100°C, and its catalytic efficiency will not decrease significantly. This characteristic makes the CS90 particularly suitable for high-temperature curing elastomer materials such as silicone rubber and epoxy resins.

4. Environmental Friendliness

CS90, as a tertiary amine catalyst, has lower toxicity and environmental hazards than traditional metal catalysts. According to EU REACH regulations and US EPA standards, CS90 is classified as a low-risk chemical suitable for the manufacture of food contact materials and medical equipment. In addition, CS90 has good biodegradability and can decompose quickly in the natural environment, reducing the long-term impact on the environment.

Catalytic Mechanism of CS90

As a tertiary amine catalyst, CS90 catalytic mechanism is mainly achieved by promoting the reaction between isocyanate (NCO) groups and active hydrogen atoms such as hydroxyl (OH), amino (NH2). Specifically, the tertiary amine group of CS90 can form adducts with NCO groups, reducing the reaction activation energy of NCO groups, thereby accelerating the progress of cross-linking reactions. The following is a detailed explanation of the catalytic mechanism of CS90:

1. Catalytic mechanism of NCO/OH reaction

In the synthesis of polyurethane (PU) elastomers, the reaction of NCO groups and OH groups is one of the key steps. CS90 facilitates this response by:

  1. Proton Transfer: The tertiary amine group of CS90 can accept protons in the NCO group to form a stable adduct. This process reduces the reaction activation of NCO groupsIt can make NCO groups more likely to react with OH groups.

  2. Intermediate formation: The adduct formed by CS90 and NCO groups is an unstable intermediate that is easily reacted with OH groups to form urea or urea bonds. This process not only speeds up the reaction rate, but also increases the crosslinking density, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the elastomer.

  3. Synergy Effect: CS90 can also work synergistically with other catalysts (such as tin catalysts) to further increase the reaction rate. Studies have shown that the synergistic effect of CS90 and stannous octoate (T-9) can significantly shorten the curing time of PU elastomers while improving the hardness and tensile strength of the material.

2. Catalytic mechanism of NCO/NH2 reaction

In some cases, NCO groups can also react with NH2 groups to form urea or amide bonds. CS90 can also facilitate this reaction through proton transfer and intermediate formation. Specifically, the tertiary amine group of CS90 can bind to protons in the NCO group to form an unstable adduct which is subsequently reacted with the NH2 group to form a urea or amide bond. This process not only speeds up the reaction rate, but also increases the crosslinking density, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the elastomer.

3. Catalytic effect on epoxy resin

In addition to its application in polyurethane elastomers, CS90 can also be used in curing reactions of epoxy resins. During the curing process of epoxy resin, CS90 promotes the reaction by:

  1. Ring opening reaction: The tertiary amine group of CS90 can bind to oxygen atoms in the epoxy group to form an unstable adduct, thereby promoting the ring opening of the epoxy group reaction. This process not only speeds up the curing rate, but also increases the cross-linking density of the epoxy resin, thereby improving the mechanical properties and heat resistance of the material.

  2. Synergy Effect: CS90 can also work synergistically with other curing agents (such as acid anhydride curing agents) to further improve the curing efficiency of epoxy resins. Studies have shown that the synergistic effect of CS90 and methyltetrahydro-dicarboxylic anhydride (MTHPA) can significantly shorten the curing time of epoxy resin while increasing the glass transition temperature (Tg) and tensile strength of the material.

4. Kinetics study of catalytic reactions

In order to have a deeper understanding of the catalytic mechanism of CS90, the researchers conducted a systematic study on the kinetics of its catalytic reaction. According to literature reports, the NCO/OH reaction catalyzed by CS90 meets the secondary reaction kinetic model, the reaction rate constant (k) and CThe concentration of S90 was positively correlated. Studies have shown that within a certain range, increasing the dosage of CS90 can significantly increase the reaction rate, but excessive CS90 may lead to side reactions and affect the final performance of the material. Therefore, in practical applications, it is necessary to reasonably control the dosage of CS90 according to specific process conditions and material requirements.

Analysis on the importance of CS90, a tertiary amine catalyst, in building sealants

Introduction

The application of tertiary amine catalyst CS90 in building sealants is of great significance. With the rapid development of the global construction industry, the demand for high-performance and environmentally friendly building materials is increasing. Sealant, as an indispensable part of the building structure, not only prevents the invasion of moisture, air and pollutants, but also improves the overall performance and durability of the building. However, key performance indicators such as curing speed, bonding strength and weather resistance of sealants directly affect their use effect and life. Therefore, choosing the right catalyst is crucial to improve the performance of the sealant.

Term amine catalyst CS90 is a highly efficient and environmentally friendly catalyst and is widely used in various types of building sealants such as polyurethane (PU), silicone (Silicone) and acrylic (Acrylic). By accelerating the crosslinking reaction of the sealant, it significantly improves the curing speed and bonding strength of the sealant, while improving its weather resistance and anti-aging properties. In addition, CS90 also has good compatibility and low volatility, which can effectively improve its comprehensive performance without affecting other performance of the sealant.

This article will conduct a detailed analysis from the product parameters, mechanism of action, application fields, performance advantages, and domestic and foreign research progress of CS90, aiming to comprehensively explore the importance of CS90 in building sealants, and be related Researchers and practitioners in the field provide reference.

The basic chemical properties and product parameters of CS90

Term amine catalyst CS90 is a highly efficient organic amine catalyst, mainly used to promote the cross-linking reaction of sealants such as polyurethane, silicone and acrylic. Its chemical name is N,N-dimethylcyclohexylamine (DMCHA), the molecular formula is C8H17N, and the molecular weight is 127.23 g/mol. Here are the main physical and chemical properties of CS90:

Parameters Value
Appearance Colorless to light yellow transparent liquid
Density (20°C) 0.86-0.88 g/cm³
Boiling point 175-180°C
Flashpoint 54°C
Solution Easy soluble in water, alcohols, and ketone solvents
pH value 10.5-11.5
Active ingredient content ?99%
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) ?0.5%

Chemical structure and reactivity

The chemical structure of CS90 contains a tertiary amine group (-NR2), which makes it highly alkaline and highly reactive. Tertiary amine groups can react rapidly with isocyanate (NCO) groups to form urethane or urea (Urea) structures, thereby accelerating the crosslinking process of polyurethane sealants. In addition, CS90 can also react with the alkoxy group (-OR) in the silane coupling agent to promote the curing of the silicone sealant.

Thermal Stability and Storage Conditions

CS90 has good thermal stability and can be stored for a long time at room temperature. Its recommended storage temperature is 5-30°C, avoiding high temperatures and direct sunlight. Because CS90 has a certain hygroscopicity, it is recommended to store it in a dry and well-ventilated environment and keep the packaging sealed well to prevent moisture from entering and causing the product to deteriorate.

Safety and Environmental Protection

CS90 is a low-toxic, low-volatility organic amine catalyst, complies with the EU REACH regulations and the US EPA standards. Its VOC content is extremely low and it will hardly cause pollution to the environment. In addition, CS90 has good biodegradability and can gradually decompose in the natural environment, reducing the long-term impact on the ecosystem. Therefore, CS90 is considered an environmentally friendly catalyst suitable for green buildings and sustainable development requirements.

The mechanism of action of CS90 in building sealant

The mechanism of action of the tertiary amine catalyst CS90 in building sealants is mainly reflected in the following aspects: accelerating the cross-linking reaction, adjusting the curing speed, improving the bonding strength and improving weather resistance. The following is a detailed analysis of its mechanism of action:

1. Accelerate cross-linking reaction

CS90, as a strongly alkaline tertiary amine catalyst, can significantly accelerate the cross-linking reaction of polyurethane, silicone and acrylic sealant. Specifically, CS90 promotes crosslinking reactions through two ways:

  • Reaction with isocyanate (NCO) groups: The tertiary amine group in CS90 can be combined with polyammoniaThe isocyanate groups in the ester sealant react rapidly to form a urethane or urea (Urea) structure. This reaction not only accelerates the curing process of polyurethane, but also increases the cross-linking density of the sealant and enhances its mechanical properties.

  • Reaction with silane coupling agent: In silicone sealant, CS90 can react with the alkoxy group (-OR) in the silane coupling agent to form siloxane (Si- O-Si) structure. This reaction promotes cross-linking and curing of silicone sealants, giving them better adhesion and weather resistance.

2. Adjust the curing speed

Another important function of CS90 is to adjust the curing speed of the sealant. By changing the amount of CS90 added, the curing time of the sealant can be accurately controlled to meet the needs of different application scenarios. For example, when constructing in cold environments, appropriately increasing the amount of CS90 can speed up the curing speed of the sealant to ensure that it reaches sufficient strength in a short period of time; while when constructing in high temperature environments, it can be extended by reducing the amount of CS90 can be increased by reducing the amount of CS90. Curing time to avoid construction difficulties caused by fast curing of sealant.

Study shows that the optimal amount of CS90 is usually 0.5%-2.0% of the total mass of the sealant, and the specific amount should be adjusted according to the type of sealant, construction environment and performance requirements. Table 1 lists the recommended amount of CS90 added in different sealant types:

Sealant Type CS90 addition amount (wt%)
Polyurethane Sealant 0.5-1.5
Silicone Sealant 1.0-2.0
Acrylic Sealant 0.5-1.0

3. Improve bonding strength

CS90 can significantly improve the bonding strength of the sealant, especially in humid environments. This is because CS90 can promote chemical bonding between the sealant and the substrate surface to form a firm bonding layer. Studies have shown that after adding CS90, the tensile shear strength of polyurethane sealant can be increased by 20%-30%, and the peel strength of silicone sealant can be increased by 15%-25%.

In addition, CS90 can also improve the cohesion of sealant and reduce cracking caused by stress concentration. This is of great significance for improving the long-term stability and durability of sealants, especially in building structures that withstand large deformations, such as bridges, tunnels and high-rise buildings.

4. Improve weather resistance

CS90 not only accelerates the curing of sealant, but also significantly improves its weather resistance. Studies have shown that the aging performance of sealants after adding CS90 in ultraviolet rays, ozone and humid and heat environments is significantly better than sealants without catalysts. This is because CS90 can promote the activity of antioxidants and light stabilizers in sealants and delay its degradation process.

In addition, CS90 can improve the waterproof performance of sealant and reduce corrosion and mildew problems caused by moisture penetration. This is of great significance for extending the service life and maintenance costs of buildings, especially in coastal areas and humid environments.
