Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an oriented long fiber reinforced polyimide foam material and its preparation method, belonging to the field of polymer materials technology. Background Technology

[0002] Rigid polyimide foam is a novel type of high-performance polymer foam material. Currently, polymethacrylamide foam (PMI), as a side-chain polyimide, has been widely used in various fields such as aerospace, high-end instruments, and wind power generation due to its excellent comprehensive properties. However, it is prone to softening at temperatures above 200°C, making it difficult to meet the temperature resistance requirements of next-generation equipment. Compared to PMI, main-chain polyimide foam has better temperature resistance and can operate in high-temperature environments above 200°C, with some types reaching temperatures above 250°C.

[0003] There are several methods for preparing main-chain polyimide foam materials, including: preparing microspheres using aromatic dianhydrides and aromatic diamines as the main raw materials, and then hot-pressing the microspheres; or, preparing them using aromatic dianhydrides and isocyanates as raw materials. This type of foam material has good performance and can be used at temperatures up to 200–250°C. In addition, rigid polyimide foam can also be prepared based on RTM process resins, using norbornene adiene anhydride as the end-capping agent and α-isomeric biphenyl anhydride as the main dianhydride. The prepared foam has a high closed-cell rate, which can reach over 90%.

[0004] However, the compressive strength and flexural strength of the main-chain polyimide foam material prepared by the above system are lower than those of PMI of the same density, and it exhibits brittle fracture. In view of the above, it is necessary to explore a method for preparing main-chain polyimide foam materials with high compressive strength and high flexural strength. Summary of the Invention
