Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of film material preparation, and more specifically, relates to a preparation process of a double-sided sinusoidally modulated polymer film. Background Art
[0002] In inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosion research, ignition capsules often employ a multi-shell design. Specifically, the capsule is composed of, from the outside in, an ablative layer of varying densities, a low-density aerogel layer, a glass layer, and a central deuterium-tritium fuel. During laser irradiation experiments, uneven laser intensity distribution and inter-layer roughness can cause hydrodynamic instabilities at the interfaces between adjacent layers of material with varying densities. These instabilities manifest as the growth of Rayleigh-Taylor and Richtmyer-Meshkov instabilities. If these instabilities are not effectively controlled during target firing, the capsule implosion efficiency will be significantly reduced, ultimately leading to ignition failure. Therefore, in order to improve the ignition success rate and energy gain of fusion target capsules, it is necessary to carry out relevant simulation and research work through precise decomposition experiments, that is, to introduce sinusoidal modulation patterns on the target surface, artificially create surface density disturbances to simulate the unevenness of the target capsule surface, and measure the nonlinear growth of the spatiotemporal distribution of target density disturbances during laser ablation of the target to study and estimate the magnitude of its fluid dynamic instability.
[0003] With the advancement of physical diagnostic technology and the deepening of precision decomposition experimental research, the target structures of related modulation targets have become increasingly diversified, expanding from simple single-medium planar modulation targets to dual-medium composite modulation targets, even multi-medium cylindrical shock tubes, and double-sided modulation targets. Currently, there are numerous reports on experimental studies of fluid dynamic instabilities based on various types of modulation targets, but the specific target preparation methods are rarely disclosed. Domestically, there has been considerable research on single-medium planar modulation targets, and their preparation technology is relatively mature. However, there has been less progress in the preparation of dual-medium composite modulation targets, and the available work has primarily focused on the composite preparation of silica aerogels and carbon aerogels, CH films and carbon aerogels, and CH films and metals. Wu et al. addressed the lack of follow-up research on a target type known as a "CH film-low-density CH foam dual-medium modulation target"—a target that has been experimentally studied internationally—and explored and established a composite preparation process. However, there are no reports on the development of double-sided sinusoidally modulated thin film targets. In addition to certain requirements for the elemental composition of the target material, the key indicators of the double-sided sinusoidal modulated target are the period and amplitude of the double-sided modulation pattern and the phase of the double-sided modulation pattern being consistent or exactly opposite.

A polytetrafluoroethylene disc of an appropriate size is then placed on the template to ensure that the back of the epoxy resin template is flat after curing. The mixture is cured at 120° C. for 4 hours, then further cured at 180° C. for 2 hours, and cooled to room temperature to obtain the epoxy resin hard template.
[0056] Step 4: preparing a preformed polystyrene film, specifically comprising: using a hot pressing machine to make a preformed polystyrene film with a diameter of 50 mm, adjusting the thickness of the preformed polystyrene film with a 0.01 mm titanium sheet, polishing the surface, controlling the heating temperature to 150° C., the pre-pressing pressure to 0.5 tons, the pre-pressing time to 3 minutes, the molding pressure to 5 tons, the hot pressing time to 5 minutes, maintaining the pressure constant, cooling to 80° C. with compressed air, obtaining the preformed polystyrene film, and opening the mold to take samples;

The specific method includes: placing the upper template 4 at a height of 0.1 mm from the surface of the microscope stage, placing the lower template 2 and the preformed polystyrene film 3 together on a lower glass slide 1, and under microscope observation, after the marking lines on the upper template 4 and the lower template 2 overlap, pressing the upper template 4, the lower template 2, the preformed polystyrene film 3, the upper glass slide 5, and the lower glass slide 1 together, and placing a binder clip 6 on the upper glass slide 5 to fix them, ensuring that there is no relative displacement between the components;

[0059] Example 2
[0060] This embodiment provides a preparation process for a double-sided sinusoidally modulated polymer film, comprising the following steps:
[0061] Step 1: Prepare a copper template. The specific method includes: using a diamond lathe to simultaneously produce three modulation patterns with different amplitudes on a copper disk, and using laser processing to produce marking lines for pattern alignment in the diameter direction and concentric ring direction of the copper disk; the pattern period of the copper template is 30μm, and the amplitudes are 0.5μm, 1μm, and 2μm respectively;
[0062] Step 2: Prepare a silicone rubber soft template using the copper template prepared in step 1. The specific method includes: thoroughly mixing Sylgard 184 two-component silicone resin and azobisisobutyl cyanide with a magnetic stirrer to obtain a mixture, wherein the weight ratio of the two-component silicone resin to azobisisobutyl cyanide is 10:1, and standing the mixture in a vacuum oven for vacuum degassing for 30 minutes; pouring the degassed mixture onto a copper template with a thickness control accessory placed on a horizontal platform so that the liquid level of the mixture slightly protrudes from the surface of the limit ring, covering it with a copper plate with a flat bottom, and curing it in a vacuum oven at 60°C for 6 hours, then heating it to 120°C and curing it for 2 hours. After cooling, the cured silicone rubber soft template is removed.
[0063] Step 3: Using the silicone rubber soft template prepared in step 2, a hard, transparent, and high-temperature resistant epoxy resin hard template is prepared. The specific method includes: weighing appropriate amounts of components A and B of Conapoxy FR-1080 two-component epoxy resin in a weight ratio of 100:83, thoroughly stirring and mixing components A and B of the two-component epoxy resin using a magnetic rotor or a glass rod, evacuating the mixture in a vacuum chamber, allowing the mixture to stand for removal of bubbles, and obtaining a mixed product. The mixed product is pipetted and slowly dripped into the cavity of a silicone rubber soft template placed on a horizontal platform, minimizing the introduction of bubbles, until the liquid level slightly protrudes from the surface of the silicone rubber soft template. A polytetrafluoroethylene disc of an appropriate size is then placed on the template to ensure that the back of the epoxy resin template is flat after curing. The mixture is cured at 120° C. for 4 hours, then further cured at 180° C. for 2 hours, and cooled to room temperature to obtain the epoxy resin hard template.
[0064] Step 4: preparing a preformed polystyrene film, specifically comprising: using a hot pressing machine to make a preformed polystyrene film with a diameter of 50 mm, adjusting the thickness of the preformed polystyrene film with a 0.01 mm titanium sheet, polishing the surface, controlling the heating temperature to 150° C., the pre-pressing pressure to 0.5 tons, the pre-pressing time to 3 minutes, the molding pressure to 5 tons, the hot pressing time to 5 minutes, maintaining the pressure constant, cooling to 80° C. with compressed air, obtaining the preformed polystyrene film, and opening the mold to take samples;
[0065] Step 5: Separate the epoxy resin hard template prepared in step 3 into an upper template and a lower template, place the preformed polystyrene film between the upper template and the lower template, and use a microscope to assist in aligning and fixing the upper template, the lower template, and the preformed polystyrene film. The specific method includes: placing the upper template at a height of 0.1 mm from the surface of the microscope stage, placing the lower template and the preformed polystyrene film together on the lower glass slide, and under microscope observation, after the marked lines on the upper and lower templates overlap, pressing the upper template, the lower template, the preformed polystyrene film, the upper glass slide, and the lower glass slide together and fixing them with binder clips to ensure that there is no relative displacement between the components;
[0066] Step 6. Vacuum hot pressing to replicate the pattern on the preformed polystyrene film, that is, to replicate the patterns on the upper template and the lower template onto the two surfaces of the preformed polystyrene film respectively, to obtain a double-sided sinusoidally modulated polymer film. The specific method includes: aligning and placing the lower glass slide, lower template, prefabricated film, upper template, and upper glass slide, placing them in a vacuum oven in a cooling state, evacuating to the ultimate vacuum, heating to 180°C, maintaining the vacuum state for 2 hours, stopping heating, and naturally cooling to room temperature for sampling to obtain a double-sided sinusoidally modulated polymer film.
[0067] Depend on Figure 2 and Figure 3 It can be seen that the surface modulation pattern of the copper template has very rich microstructural details, and the patterns in different positions have certain differences. Figure 2 The copper template shown is provided with three limiting rings, which are used to plan a volume on the copper template, limit the casting amount of the mixture, and control the thickness of the mixture. Figure 4 and Figure 5 It can be seen that the pattern periods are 10 μm and 30 μm, corresponding to Example 1 and Example 2, respectively. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The ordinate is the amplitude of the pattern in μm, and the abscissa is the period of the pattern in mm. Because the profilometer probe is too large to penetrate deeply into the modulation pattern, the amplitude obtained by the profilometer is inaccurate.
[0068] like Figures 6-11 As shown, the white light interference pattern of the silicone rubber soft template ( Figure 7 、 Figure 8 )、Microscopic enlargement ( Figure 9 、 Figure 10 ), clearly shows that the pattern and local defect details on the copper template are well reproduced, Figure 11 The optical micrograph of the silicone rubber cross section clearly shows a complete sinusoidal modulation pattern. This demonstrates the high pattern replication capability of the silicone rubber soft template. Silicone resin can replicate the fine structure of the copper mold surface with high precision.
[0069] Figure 12 The optical micrograph of the epoxy resin hard template pattern is given, and it can be clearly seen that the pattern details of the copper template are well replicated and the modulation pattern is clear. Figure 13 、 Figure 14 ) results show that the period of the modulation pattern is essentially the same as that of the copper and silicone rubber templates. Using the silicone rubber soft template as a foundation, the two-component epoxy resin accurately replicates the microstructure of the silicone resin, with the pattern period and amplitude essentially matching the characteristic dimensions of the silicone rubber soft template.
[0070] The key to the successful development of double-sided modulated films lies in whether the patterns on both sides are accurately replicated and whether the phases of the patterns are consistent or exactly opposite. Figure 15 and Figure 16 It is clearly shown that patterns are embossed on both sides of the double-sided modulated film, and the pattern texture is clear. Figure 17 The quality of film end surface pattern replication observed under an optical microscope is given. Due to the small depth of field of the microscope and the uneven height of the hand-cut end surface, it is difficult to clearly observe the modulation pattern on both the front and back sides at the same time. Figure 17 It has been clearly shown that the patterns have been successfully replicated on both the front and back sides, and the phases of the patterns are basically consistent.
[0071] Figure 18 、 Figure 19 and Figure 20 The profilometer scanning results of the replicated patterns on both sides of two modulation patterns with periods of 30μm and 10μm are given. Figures 18-20 In the figure, the horizontal axis represents the period of the pattern in mm, and the vertical axis represents the amplitude of the pattern in μm. Figure 18 As can be seen, when the modulation pattern amplitude is 30μm, the patterns on both sides are highly consistent, with relatively consistent period, phase, and amplitude. However, when the modulation pattern period is only 10μm, the period of the patterns on both sides is essentially the same, but there is a significant difference in amplitude. This indicates that this technical approach has certain limitations for producing patterns with shorter modulation periods. However, the samples to be prepared in this study have a modulation pattern period of 50μm. Based on the current results, this technical approach is fully capable of producing products that meet the requirements.
[0072] The number of devices and processing scales described herein are intended to simplify the description of the present invention. Applications, modifications, and variations of the present invention will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art.
[0073] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed above, they are not limited to the applications listed in the description and implementation methods. They can be fully applied to various fields suitable for the present invention. For those familiar with the art, additional modifications can be easily implemented. Therefore, without departing from the general concept defined by the claims and the scope of equivalents, the present invention is not limited to the specific details and illustrations shown and described herein.
