Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of laboratory construction equipment technology, and in particular relates to a conveniently stored air-film transfer window. Background Technology

[0002] A pass-through window is an auxiliary device in cleanrooms, primarily used for transferring small items between clean areas and between clean and non-clean areas. This reduces the number of times the cleanroom doors are opened, minimizing contamination. Pass-through windows on the market are generally made of stainless steel, with a smooth and clean surface. The double doors are interlocked to effectively prevent cross-contamination, and are equipped with electronic or mechanical interlocking devices and ultraviolet germicidal lamps.

[0003] However, stainless steel pass-through windows are difficult to install and disassemble, and cannot be easily stored. When installing stainless steel pass-through windows, screw holes need to be drilled in the mounting holes in the cleanroom, and the installation time for stainless steel pass-through windows can take more than 1 hour. The replacement cost and production cost of stainless steel pass-through windows are also relatively high.

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems with stainless steel pass-through windows, the inventors of this invention have developed a conveniently storable air-supported membrane pass-through window. However, for the pass-through window used in laboratories in this invention, the air-supported membrane material must also possess good airtightness, water resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, and resistance to volatile organic solvents. Air-supported membrane products are generally fixed by adhesive bonding / heat sealing, and are susceptible to expansion / contraction due to variations in temperature, humidity, processing technology, storage time, or usage time. High or low ambient temperatures can cause air leakage, affecting the product's performance and lifespan. Laboratories frequently experience leaks of volatile gases, solvents, or corrosive solvents. Prolonged exposure to this environment can cause corrosion or chemical reactions on the surface of the air-supported membrane, affecting its airtightness and quality, and shortening its lifespan.

[0005] Commonly used inflatable membrane materials are formed by coating film-forming resin onto a polyester fiber base fabric. These mainly include inflatable PVC membrane materials, inflatable PTFE membrane materials, and inflatable ETFE membrane materials. Inflatable PVC membrane materials are easy to process and have good toughness, but they have low strength, low elastic stiffness, are prone to aging, have large creep, poor self-cleaning properties, poor waterproofing, average thermal insulation performance, and a short service life. To optimize the performance of inflatable PVC membranes, existing technologies apply PVF, PVDF, PMMA, etc., as additional layers onto the PVC coating. However, PVF film formation requires a large amount of solvent, is not environmentally friendly, and is not suitable for brush application; PVDF coatings are prone to pinholes and shrinkage, generating bubbles and causing the coating to detach; PMMA membranes have low surface hardness and are easily scratched. PTFE membranes have advantages such as good light transmittance, strong UV resistance, weldability, and strong self-cleaning properties. However, they have high rigidity and are prone to curling, which weakens their strength. They are also prone to deformation and cracking, affecting their service life. PTFE membranes do not have a base fabric and have specific properties such as self-cleaning, corrosion resistance, and high light transmittance. However, they are susceptible to leakage due to external factors and have high costs. Summary of the Invention

[0011] The base fabric is woven from yarn using a plain weave method. The single-strand yarn is formed by interlacing and winding polyester yarn, acrylic yarn and glass fiber yarn with a yarn ratio of 2:1:1.

[0020] P2. The mixed material is fed into a twin-screw extruder and extruded. The extruder temperature is set to 160-190℃ to obtain PVC / ENR composite material.

[0027] Furthermore, the method for preparing the PVC film specifically includes the following steps:

[0028] (1) Apply modified epoxy adhesive to the outer surface of the base fabric using a sizing roller. After three coats, cure and pre-shape the coating. Then, hot melt coat the outer surface of the base fabric with PVC / ENR composite material to form a PVC inner film layer. After cooling and shaping.

[0029] (2) Spray 1-1.5mm butyl rubber adhesive onto the outer surface of the above PVC inner film layer, let it air dry naturally, and then use a sizing roller to apply butyl rubber adhesive. After three applications, the layer is cured and pre-shaped to obtain an airtight layer.

[0030] (3) The PVC / PBAF composite material is hot-melted and bonded to the outer surface of the above airtight layer to form a PVC outer film layer. Then, the product is embossed, cooled, shaped, and finally trimmed.

[0031] Furthermore, the first inflatable membrane and the second inflatable membrane are connected to the inner frame through a membrane frame. Both the first inflatable membrane and the second inflatable membrane are bonded to the membrane frame with adhesive. The membrane frame is bonded to the inner frame with adhesive, and an electronic interlocking device is provided on the membrane frame and the inner frame.

[0032] The present invention has achieved the following beneficial effects:

[0033] 1. The air-supported membrane transfer window of the present invention is composed of two inflatable membrane bodies. The distance between the first and second inflatable membrane bodies is the thickness of the cleanroom (also known as the laboratory) wall. After the two inflatable membrane bodies are inflated, the applied pressure forms an effective airtightness between them and the wall, so that the entire transfer window can be installed stably and airtightly in the cleanroom. It can withstand a certain pressure and will not deform arbitrarily. It also has the effects of pressure resistance and heat preservation. When the gas is discharged, the air-supported membrane transfer window can be folded and stored, which is conducive to transportation and installation. Compared with stainless steel transfer windows, its production cost and disassembly cost are both lower.

[0034] 2. The air-supported membrane transfer window of the present invention can be installed quickly. At the construction site, it is only necessary to inflate the membrane to support it, and the installation can be completed in 10 minutes, which greatly reduces the difficulty of construction and makes it easy to maintain the membrane if it is damaged.

[0035] 3. The base fabric of the PVC membrane of this invention is woven from single-strand spun yarns made of polyester filaments, acrylic filaments, and glass fiber filaments intertwined in a certain proportion using a plain weave method. Compared with spun yarns composed of a single type of fiber filament, it has better tensile strength, toughness, and elasticity, is not easy to break, can withstand a certain pressure, supports the inner frame and experimental samples, ensures the shape of the air-film transfer window, is not easily deformed, and extends its service life. The addition of acrylic filaments improves the toughness of the spun yarns, and the addition of glass fiber filaments improves the strength and compressive strength of the spun yarns. However, the use of acrylic filaments and glass fiber filaments does not worsen the elasticity and heat insulation properties of the spun yarns. On the contrary, it reduces the thermal conductivity to a certain extent, giving the warp yarns better heat insulation effects and improving the load-bearing capacity of the air-film transfer window.

[0036] 4. The PVC base fabric surface of this invention is coated with a nitrile or polysulfide modified epoxy adhesive, which allows the modified epoxy adhesive to penetrate into the base fabric and has good adhesion to the double-layer PVC resin on its surface. It can form a whole with the double-layer PVC resin film, thereby improving the air tightness of the PVC film and making it less likely for gas to leak from the air cavity of the inflatable membrane. The use of modified epoxy adhesive improves the aging resistance, solvent resistance, and air impermeability of the PVC film.

[0037] 5. The PVC / ENR composite material of this invention uses PVC resin and epoxidized natural rubber as the matrix. Epoxidized natural rubber has high molecular polarity and strong intermolecular forces, exhibiting good compatibility with PVC resin. It can tightly bind with other components in the composite material, retaining the inherent properties of ENR and PVC. This results in the PVC / ENR composite material possessing superior strength, airtightness, resistance to organic solvents, chemical corrosion, and aging resistance, further improving the elasticity, toughness, water resistance, thermal stability, and airtightness of the air film transfer window. The combined use of mica powder and wollastonite enhances the airtightness and mechanical strength of the PVC / ENR composite material, while also providing superior toughness and elasticity. The addition of ENR further improves the properties of PVC... The improved adhesion between the PVC / ENR composite material and the airtight layer and inner coating enhances the airtightness of the air film transfer window, thereby extending its service life. The addition of fatty alcohol and ethylene oxide condensate and Rheinlandia 25 acts as a dispersant and lubricant in this invention, improving the dispersion of epoxidized natural rubber in the composite material, resulting in uniform dispersion of each component and a tighter bond between them, further enhancing the airtightness of the PVC / ENR composite material. The use of fatty alcohol and ethylene oxide condensate and Rheinlandia 25 also reduces the processing viscosity of the PVC / ENR composite material, improves its flowability, reduces or even eliminates melt fracture during hot melting, and improves the processing performance of the PVC / ENR composite material.

[0038] 6. The PVC / PBA composite material of the present invention is made by mixing PVC resin and PBA polymer emulsion as the matrix, and then adding modified silane polyether resin, nano-chitosan, carboxymethyl chitosan, plasticizer, heat stabilizer, mica powder, calcium carbonate and other components. The addition of PBA polymer emulsion can form a complete network film between PVC, organic components and inorganic fillers, preventing the intrusion of moisture and gas, improving the strength, toughness, impact resistance and water resistance of the PVC / PBA composite material, and giving it better wear resistance, corrosion resistance, aging resistance and weather resistance, thereby extending the service life and performance of the present invention, and also improving the adhesion to the airtight layer, thereby further enhancing the airtightness of the air film transfer window; the addition of modified silane polyether resin improves the airtightness, corrosion resistance, water resistance and weather resistance of the PVC / PBA composite material, and gives the PVC / PBA composite material better performance. It possesses superior mechanical strength, toughness, and resistance to contamination. The addition of nano-chitosan and carboxymethyl chitosan enhances the adhesion between the PVC / PBA composite material and the butyl rubber adhesive during hot melt flow, making it less prone to peeling. Furthermore, the nano-chitosan and carboxymethyl chitosan can be uniformly dispersed in the composite material, improving the interaction between the components and thus enhancing the elasticity and mechanical strength of the PVC / PBA composite material, extending the service life of the invention. The combined use of mica powder, calcium carbonate, and PBA polymer emulsion improves the airtightness and mechanical strength of the PVC film, and also provides superior toughness and elasticity.

[0039] 7. The air-film transfer window of the present invention has a low cost. It only requires inflating two air-supported membrane bodies to form a shape. It can be inflated as needed and deflated and folded when not in use, without taking up space and requiring no additional assembly. It can replace the existing stainless steel transfer window. The PVC membrane adopts a specific layer structure and is combined with appropriate processes and formulas, so that the air-film transfer window not only has good mechanical strength, impact resistance and easy installation and storage, but also has excellent physical strength, air tightness, toughness, elasticity, chemical corrosion resistance, volatile solvent resistance, aging resistance, water resistance, flame retardancy, wear resistance, heat insulation and long service life.
