Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of polymer composite materials, specifically relating to an electromagnetic shielding thermoplastic composite material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Long fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites are a common type of thermoplastic composite material and one of the fastest-growing materials in the composite materials market today. As both semi-structural and structural materials, long fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites are being developed for various industrial and civilian applications, including automotive, machinery, entertainment, food processing, communications, electronics, power tools, and horticulture.

[0003] Long fiber reinforced thermoplastic materials have fiber lengths equal to particle lengths and highly consistent fiber orientation, resulting in low density, ease of molding, high specific strength, high modulus, good fatigue resistance, and non-absorbency. Furthermore, these materials exhibit good dimensional stability, excellent impact resistance, chemical stability (resistance to salt, oil, and fuels), and recyclability, making them particularly suitable for applications with frequent high and low temperature fluctuations. They can be injection molded on conventional injection molding machines or compression molded, making them ideal candidates for metal replacement. Automotive materials account for 80%-90% of the total usage of long fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites.

[0004] However, with the rapid development of the electronics and information industry, the number of electronic products generating electromagnetic interference has increased dramatically, and electromagnetic interference has become a public nuisance. At the same time, precision electronic equipment and components are easily damaged by electromagnetic interference. Electromagnetic shielding materials, as an effective means of electromagnetic protection, have received widespread attention and application. For large and complex automotive parts and high-precision electronic components, the materials used must possess high flowability, ease of molding, high dimensional stability, high surface quality, electromagnetic shielding capabilities, and be suitable for processing and molding. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a composite material for electromagnetic shielding with excellent mechanical properties. CN109664577A discloses a multilayer electromagnetic shielding composite material and its preparation method, but the layers require an adhesive, making the processing method relatively complex. CN105164192A also discloses a prepreg and its manufacturing method, using epoxy resin as the matrix resin, but its production efficiency is insufficient to meet the requirements of high-efficiency continuous processing.

[0171] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the manufacturing system of the present invention includes a fiber rack and fiber guiding device 1, a fiber pretreatment device 2, a first impregnation mold 3, a melt plasticizing feeding device 4, a molding mold 5, a cooling water tank 6, a dryer 7, a traction machine 8, a pelletizer 9, a collection box 10, and an electrical control system (not shown in the figure), which are connected in sequence.

[0172] In the manufacturing system, molding die 5 is used for molding the inner and outer layer composite material, and its structure is as follows: Figure 8 As shown.

[0173] In the manufacturing system, the first impregnation mold 3 is used for impregnating the fiber with the resin melt.

[0174] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the first impregnation mold is an impregnation device with an adjustable guide roller position, including a first impregnation mold head A300. The first impregnation mold head A300 includes an impregnation mold body A7, a fiber inlet A1, a fiber outlet A6, and a melt flow channel A3. At least one first guide roller A8 is provided in the mold cavity, wherein the first guide roller A8 is movable between the fiber inlet A1 and the fiber outlet A6, or the first guide roller A8 is movable along a direction perpendicular to the line connecting the fiber inlet A1 and the fiber outlet A6; or, the first guide roller A8 is movable both between the fiber inlet A1 and the fiber outlet A6 and along a direction perpendicular to the line connecting the fiber inlet A1 and the fiber outlet A6.

[0175] Taking a rectangular first impregnation mold head A300 as an example, the first impregnation mold head A300 is provided with a plurality of first guide rollers A8. The axial direction of each first guide roller A8 is the width direction of the first impregnation mold head A300. Therefore, each first guide roller A8 can move along the length direction of the first impregnation mold head A300 or along the height direction, thereby changing the position of the first guide roller A8 within the first impregnation mold head A300.

[0176] Understandably, the axial direction of the first guide roller A8 can also be the length direction of the first impregnation mold head A300. In this case, each first guide roller A8 can move along the width direction of the first impregnation mold head A300 or along the height direction of the first impregnation mold head A300, thereby changing the position of the first guide roller A8 within the first impregnation mold head A300.

[0177] Since the fiber (fiber bundle) needs to pass around the first guide roller A8 in sequence within the mold cavity of the first impregnation mold head A300, the fiber's path within the mold cavity can be altered by changing the position of the first guide roller A8 within the first impregnation mold head A300 (horizontal position, longitudinal position, etc.). Therefore, when the required impregnation conditions change, it is not necessary to replace the mold; only the position of the first guide roller A8 within the first impregnation mold head A300 needs to be adjusted. This improves production efficiency and continuity. It also reduces the number of first impregnation mold heads A300, saving production costs.

[0178] Specifically, the inventive concept of this invention is to achieve the purpose of adjusting the position of the first guide roller A8 by slotting the inner wall of the mold cavity of the first impregnation mold head A300.

[0179] A first groove A4 is provided on the first inner wall of the first impregnation mold head A300, and the first groove A4 extends between the fiber inlet A1 and the fiber outlet A6 (i.e., Figure 4 (As shown in the X-axis direction), the first guide roller A8 moves along the first groove A4 to change its horizontal position within the first impregnation mold head A300.

[0180] Furthermore, a second groove A2 is also provided on the first inner wall of the first impregnation mold head A300, and the second groove extends in a direction perpendicular to the first groove A4 (i.e. Figure 4 (As shown in the Y-axis direction), the first guide roller A8 moves along the second slide groove A2 to change its vertical position in the die head.

[0181] It should be noted that the first groove A4 and the second groove A2 can be connected. Therefore, the first guide roller A8 can move arbitrarily in the longitudinal or transverse direction, thereby changing its position.

[0182] The cross-sections of the first groove A4 and the second groove A2 can be trapezoidal, circular, arc-shaped, or rectangular, etc., and the present invention does not limit them.

[0183] Both ends of the first guide roller A8 are provided with adjustment devices (not shown in the figure). The adjustment devices are used to adjust the axial length of the first guide roller A8. The minimum axial length of the first guide roller A8 is less than the distance between the first inner wall and the second inner wall, and the maximum axial length of the first guide roller A8 is greater than the distance between the first inner wall and the second inner wall.

[0184] like Figure 5 As shown, in another embodiment of the present invention, the second impregnation mold is a combined impregnation mold, including a second impregnation mold head B300. The second impregnation mold head B300 includes a first module B3, an intermediate module B6, and a second module B7 connected in sequence. The first module B3 is provided with a fiber inlet B1 and a first module flow channel B31, the second module B7 is provided with a fiber outlet B8 and a second module flow channel B71, and the intermediate module B6 is provided with an intermediate module flow channel B61.

[0185] After sequentially connecting the first module B3, intermediate module B6, and second module B7, the first module flow channel B31, intermediate module flow channel B61, and second module flow channel B71 are connected to form a combined flow channel B4 for the fiber to pass through. The number of intermediate modules B6 is at least one. That is, the first module B3 is the head module, the second module B7 is the tail module, and there are one or more intermediate modules B6 between them. It should be noted that these intermediate modules B6 are also sequentially connected.

[0186] In other words, the number of intermediate modules B6 can be increased or decreased as needed, so that when the impregnation requirements change, different intermediate modules B6 can be combined to form a combined second impregnation mold head B300, thereby improving production continuity and efficiency and saving the cost of additional mold opening.

[0187] Furthermore, by selecting different intermediate modules B6, the shape parameters (such as curvature) of the formed combined flow channel B4 can be changed, thereby altering the flow path of the fiber and melt. This allows for changes in the impregnation angle and fiber tension at different stations in the mold, ultimately achieving the goal of adjusting and optimizing the entire fiber impregnation process and improving the adaptability of the second impregnation mold head B300 to different resin matrices and fibers.

[0188] The first module B3, the intermediate module B6, and the second module B7 are placed in the mold frame. The mold frame provides a constraint, ensuring that they are in close contact with each other and thus guaranteeing the sealing of the combined flow channel B4.

[0189] like Figure 5 As shown, an implementation with two intermediate modules B6 is illustrated. Figure 5 In the embodiment shown, the downstream end of the first module flow channel B31 is connected to the upstream end of one of the intermediate module flow channels B61, the two intermediate module flow channels B61 are connected to each other, and the downstream section of the other intermediate module flow channel B61 is connected to the upstream end of the second intermediate module flow channel B71, thereby forming a combined flow channel B4 extending from the fiber inlet B1 to the fiber outlet B8.

[0190] Understandably, different combinations of flow channels B4 can be obtained by selecting different intermediate modules B6.

[0191] like Figure 5 As shown, the downstream end of the first module flow channel B31, the upstream end of the second module flow channel B71, and both ends of the intermediate module flow channel B61 are all located in the same plane and are constructed with standardized connectors B5. In other words, the connections between the first module flow channel B31, the intermediate module flow channel B61, and the second module B71 are made through standardized connectors B5. Since the standardized connectors B5 are all located in the same plane and have the same shape and size, it facilitates the combination and connection between different modules.

[0192] like Figure 6 As shown, in another embodiment of the present invention, the third impregnation mold is a strong turbulent impregnation mold, including a third impregnation mold head C300. The third impregnation mold head C300 includes an impregnation mold outer body C2. The impregnation mold outer body C2 is provided with a fiber inlet channel C3, an impregnation outlet C6, and a melt gap flow channel C1. The fiber inlet channel C3, the impregnation outlet C6, and the melt gap flow channel C1 are all connected to the mold cavity inside the impregnation mold outer body C2.

[0193] The impregnation mold outer body C2 has a second guide roller inside its cavity. This second guide roller includes at least one active guide roller C4, which is driven to rotate by a drive device (not shown in the figure). Since the rotation of the active guide roller C4 is driven by the drive device, rather than by the fiber's traction, the actively rotating active guide roller C4 helps reduce the fiber's traction tension and the friction between the fiber and the active guide roller C4 as the fiber passes through it. This reduces fiber breakage, ensures fiber integrity, and prevents fiber breakage, thereby improving the material's mechanical properties. Preferably, the second guide roller also includes at least one driven guide roller C5, which is driven by the fiber passing through the active guide roller C4; or the driven guide roller C5 and the active guide roller C4 are connected via a belt mechanism, gear mechanism, or chain mechanism. Figure 6The diagram illustrates an example with one active guide roller C4 and two driven guide rollers C5, wherein the two driven guide rollers C5 are arranged one above the other to extend the impregnation path of the fibers passing through them. The active guide roller C4 and the driven guide rollers C5 may be at the same or different heights within the die cavity.

[0194] Furthermore, the driving device can be a motor, hydraulic mechanism, or gearbox, or any device capable of driving the active guide roller C4 to rotate.

[0195] Based on the fiber's traveling speed v1 in the mold cavity of the impregnation mold body C2, the corresponding tangential speed v2 of the active guide roller C4 can be selected. For example, the tangential speed v2 of the active guide roller C4 can be made the same as the fiber's traveling speed v1, i.e., v1 = v2. This reduces fiber breakage and wear, thus ensuring fiber integrity, promoting the degree of fiber impregnation, shortening impregnation time, and improving production efficiency.

[0196] like Figure 2 As shown, the melt plasticizing feeding device 4 consists of a twin-screw extruder used for melting and plasticizing materials. The twin-screw extruder is a co-rotating twin-screw extruder with a screw diameter of 25mm-95mm and a length-to-diameter ratio of 36:1-65:1. When the melt plasticizing feeding device 4 consists of a single extruder 4, the melt plasticizing material in the extruder is divided by a melt distributor and fed into the impregnation die and the forming die respectively, and the flow rate of each die is controlled by a melt flow control valve.

[0197] like Figure 3 As shown, when the melt plasticizing feeding device 4 consists of two extruders 4-1 and 4-2, the molten plasticized melts from extruder I 4-1 and extruder II 4-2 are respectively fed into the impregnation mold and the forming mold. In this embodiment, the melt plasticizing feeding device consists of two extruders, namely extruder I 4-1 and extruder II 4-2, which respectively feed the molten plasticized melts from extruder I 4-1 and extruder II 4-2 into the first impregnation mold 3 and the forming mold 5. Extruder I 4-1 and extruder II 4-2 can be fed with the same or different materials, thus enabling the preparation of composite materials with the same or different materials for the inner and outer layers.

[0198] The fiber pretreatment device 2 consists of a tension roller and a hot drying tunnel. This combination allows for some release of tension on the fibers as they enter the hot drying tunnel, thus accommodating fibers of different strengths and preventing fibers with lower strength from breaking before entering the impregnation die. The surface of the tension roller in the fiber pretreatment device 2 needs to be ceramic-coated to increase surface roughness and reduce friction on the fibers.

[0199] In the manufacturing system, the fiber frame and fiber guiding device 1 are used for fiber output and untwisting. The device is equipped with an automatic control untwisting device, which is linked with the traction machine 8 and electrically connected to the electrical control system (such as a PLC control device).

[0200] In the manufacturing system, the cooling water tank 6, dryer 7, traction machine 8, pelletizer 9, and collection box 10 are conventional equipment or devices known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0201] Figure 7 A schematic diagram showing the second impregnation process using a molding die is shown. Figure 8 A cross-sectional view of the molding die used in the second impregnation process is shown.

[0202] like Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the molding die 5 consists of a core 5-1, an outer sleeve 5-2, and an outer sleeve opening template 5-3. The core 5-1 is located inside the outer sleeve 5-2, forming a cavity with the outer sleeve 5-2. The resin melt can enter the cavity from the bottom, top, or both sides of the outer sleeve 5-2. The core 5-1 can move back and forth within the outer sleeve 5-2, and the pressure of the melt in the cavity is determined by adjusting the size of the formed cavity space. The pressure of the melt in the cavity can also be adjusted by the angle between the core 5-1 and the outer sleeve 5-2. The working principle of the molding die 5 is as follows: the strip of inner impregnated material formed after passing through the impregnation mold 3 is guided through the hole in the middle of the core 5-1, and then the composite structure of the inner and outer layer materials is formed in the cavity filled with mixed melt formed by the core 5-1 and the outer sleeve 5-2. Finally, it is discharged through the outer sleeve opening template 5-3.

[0203] like Figure 7 As shown, the strip 5-4 enters the cavity filled with the second component melt formed by the core (not shown) and the outer sleeve 5-2 for processing, wherein the second component melt is fed into the cavity from the second resin inlet 5-5.

[0204] In the following embodiments and comparative examples, the following methods are employed: Figure 3 The manufacturing system shown prepares electromagnetically shielded thermoplastic composite materials, wherein the first impregnation treatment is selected from... Figure 4 The first immersion mold shown, the second immersion treatment adopts Figure 8 The molding die shown.
