Problems solved by technology

However, for the simultaneous electroplating of multiple bundles of carbon fibers, this material cannot be used. This is because the rubber material will deform during the immersion in the plating solution, resulting in inconsistent pressure on multiple bundles of carbon fibers, that is, the contact resistance is different, and finally to a uniform plating layer

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for plating metal by multiple beams of continuous long carbon fibers simultaneously. At least 16 beams of continuous carbon fibers are connected in parallel, the spacing distance of the beams is 0.5-3 cm, and after being degummed and cleaned, all the continuous long carbon fibers are soaked in a plating bath for surface plating synchronously through two stages of electrolytic deposition, and are washed and dried after the second stage of surface plating; the continuous long carbon fibers enter and pass by a metal electric conduction roller at the front end of each stage of plating bath at the same time, the electric contact conditions of the continuous long carbon fibers are consistent, and the continuous long carbon fibers proceed at the same linear speed; at the same time the metal electric conduction roller is connected with a cathode of a power source to realize the connection of the continuous long carbon fibers and the cathode; and each beam of long carbon fiber is powered up by an independent power source, the current of the long carbon fiber is regulated and controlled independently, the problem of fiber winding caused by the nonuniform speed can be avoided, continuous plating is ensured, and the production efficiency of carbon fiber plating is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of carbon fiber surface modification, and in particular relates to a device and a method for simultaneously electroplating metal with multiple bundles of continuous carbon fibers. Background technique [0002] The metallization of carbon fiber can not only improve the interfacial compatibility with the metal matrix material, but also be used to strengthen the polymer and improve the electrical conductivity of the polymer, thereby preparing plastic products with electrical conductivity, which can be used in antistatic, shielding and / or Or absorbing electromagnetic waves and so on have a wider application prospect. Therefore, the metallization of carbon fiber has attracted much attention. Practice has proved that due to the certain conductivity of carbon fiber, the electrodeposition of carbon fiber (commonly known as "electroplating") is the most effective metallization technology, which can be applied to lar...
