Preparation method of graphene and ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene composite fiber

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of a graphene and ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene composite fiber. The preparation method comprises the following steps: S1: dispersing ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene resin and a filler into a solvent by adopting a blending method to form a uniform resin dispersion solution; S2: adding graphene powder into a dispersant, heating the mixture to certain temperature, adding an emulsifier for emulsification, and obtaining a graphene dispersion solution; S3: adding the graphene dispersion solution into the resin dispersion solution, and stirring and heating the mixed solution to obtain a spinning solution; S4: performing spinning, precursor fiber stewing and thermal stretching on the spinning solution, thus obtaining the graphene and ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene composite fiber. According to the preparation method provided by the invention, the intensity of the ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene fiber is enhanced byadding a filling material and graphene into ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene fiber, so that the final intensity is up to 30 to 45 cN/dtex; in addition, the composite fiber further has excellent properties of ultraviolet resistance, cutting resistance and the like.
