Preparation and Characterization of Self-Healing Microcapsules Containing Two-Component

Article Preview

Abstract:

Two component self-healing microcapsules were prepared by in situ polymerization with poly (melamine-urea-formaldehyde) as wall, epoxy resin and latent curing agent sebacate hydrazide as core. The ratio of two core material and the reaction process were studied. The size and distribution of particle, surface morphology, structure, thermal properties and content of core were measured and characterized by using particle size analyzer(PSA), optical microscopy (OM), infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The results showed that the microcapsules have smooth and compact surfaces, and have spherical profiles. The average diameter of microcapsules is 30μm and core content of microcapsules is 70%. The heat resistance and solvent resistance of microcapsule are better. The curing temperature is 190°Cand the healing efficiency can be improved.
