Abstract:

A lanthanum 2,3?pyrazinedicarboxylic acid (2,3?LPDA) rare earth thermal stabilizer was synthesized using 2,3?pyrazinedicarboxylic acid as a ligand together with lanthanum nitrate and ammonia water, and its molecular formula was analyzed through infrared spectroscopic characterization and elemental and thermal analyses. The thermal stability of 2,3?LPDA and its compounding system with other auxiliary heat stabilizers like zinc stearate, calcium stearate, and pentaerythritol were investigated through a static thermal stabilization experiment. The effect of thermal stabilizers on the plasticization and mechanical properties of PVC were evaluated. The thermal stability mechanism of 2,3?LPDA was analyzed. The results indicated that the molecular formula of 2,3?LPDA was determined to be La2(C6N2O42(NO32·3H2O. When the compounding ratio of 2,3?LPDA to zinc stearate to pentaerythritol was set as 2∶1∶2, the thermal stabilization time of PVC reached 44 min and its processability and tensile strength was improved significantly. The presence of 2,3?LPDA could depressed the dissociation of the C—Cl bond in PVC and absorbed the Cl- produced by the degradation of PVC through a combination with rare earth ions to form LaCl3. This effectively inhibited the degradation of PVC, resulting in a good thermal stability.
