Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of insulating materials, in particular to a composite insulating paper with adjustable dielectric constant and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] As an important primary equipment in the power system, power transformer is an indispensable core equipment of the power grid. With the continuous development of China's economy and the continuous improvement of people's daily life, people's demand for electricity increases. The transformer can not only increase the voltage for transmission to the power consumption area, but also reduce the voltage to the normal voltage. Therefore, with the continuous improvement of voltage grade and the continuous increase of electricity consumption, the transformer also develops towards high voltage, large capacity and compactness. At the same time, as the key equipment of energy conversion and transmission in the power grid, the safety and reliability of the insulation capability of the power transformer have a decisive role in the normal operation of the power system. As an important insulating material of the power transformer, the insulating paper will be affected by electric, thermal and mechanical stress during long-term operation of the transformer, resulting in a decrease in insulation performance. Moreover, due to the non-replaceability and irreversible aging of the transformer insulating paper, the service life of the transformer is seriously reduced.

[0003] As the main insulating material inside the transformer, oil paper insulation not only has to withstand alternating current electric field, but also has to withstand direct current, alternating current and polarity reversal electric field. Therefore, under the action of electric field, the oil paper interface is easy to accumulate electric charge, resulting in distortion of electric field, which causes the internal electric field of the transformer to be too concentrated and the transformer to be damaged. However, the insulating system composed of insulating papers with different dielectric constants can optimize the internal electric field of the equipment, making the electric field distribution more smooth and uniform, preventing and treating the problem of electric field concentration. However, there is currently no method to adjust the dielectric constant of the composite insulating paper. SUMMARY

[0004] The present application provides a composite insulating paper with adjustable dielectric constant and a preparation method thereof, to realize the safe and reliable operation of high-performance transformers. The dielectric constant of the composite insulating paper can be adjusted according to the degree of substitution of cyanoethyl cellulose and the fluorocarbon ratio of fluorocarbon nanotubes. At the same time, the insulating paper can solve the problems of traditional cellulose insulating paper, such as easy moisture absorption, poor thermal stability and easy aging, and has excellent insulation performance and thermal stability, which has a good application prospect in the fields of transformers, high-performance motors, power capacitors and the like.

[0018] Further, in the method, the preparation of the cellulose nanofiber dispersion liquid comprises:

[0019] The cellulose nanofiber is diluted with water to a cellulose nanofiber dispersion liquid with a mass concentration of 0.05%-0.5%; the diameter of the cellulose nanofiber is 20-30nm.

[0020] Further, in the method, the mass ratio of the cellulose nanofiber dispersion liquid to FC@CEC is 1-5:1.

[0021] Further, the method as described above, the shearing condition is: the shearing rate is 10000-15000 rpm, and the shearing time is 15-25 min.

[0022] Further, the method as described above, the hot-pressing condition in the step five is: the pressure is 20-30 MPa, the hot-pressing temperature is 100-150 DEG C, and the hot-pressing time is 10-30 min.

[0023] The dielectric constant adjustable composite insulating paper is prepared according to the method as described above.

[0024] The application of the dielectric constant adjustable composite insulating paper as described above in the preparation of transformers.

[0025] The cellulose nanofiber provided by the application is a nanometer material derived from a natural plant, and has the characteristics of wide source, green environmental protection, high length-diameter ratio, excellent mechanical properties, and rich and adjustable physical and chemical properties.

[0026] The dielectric constant adjustable composite insulating paper provided by the application takes the cellulose nanofiber as a network skeleton, takes the cyanoethyl cellulose with different degrees of substitution and the fluorocarbon nanotube with different fluorocarbon ratios as functional units for regulating the dielectric constant of the composite insulating paper, and the dielectric constant of the composite insulating paper is regulated by changing the degree of substitution of the cyanoethyl group in the cyanoethyl cellulose and / or the fluorocarbon ratio of the fluorocarbon nanotube, so that the prepared composite insulating paper has different dielectric constants, and thus the insulation system composed of the insulating papers with different dielectric constants can optimize the electric field inside the equipment, so that the electric field distribution is more smooth and uniform, and the problem of electric field concentration is prevented. Moreover, the prepared composite insulating paper can be applied to transformers of different voltage grades, and accidents of the transformer are prevented.

[0036] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, the technical scheme in the present application will be described clearly and completely in the following combined with the drawings in the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0037] Since cyanoethyl cellulose has high dielectric constant and low dielectric loss, cyanoethyl cellulose can be used as dielectric material. Because the cyanoethylization degree of the molecular chain of cyanoethyl cellulose is different, that is, the degree of substitution is different, the performance will also change. Therefore, within a certain range of change, the dielectric constant of cyanoethyl cellulose will increase with the increase of the degree of substitution, and the moisture resistance, thermal stability and mechanical properties will also be strengthened. Cyanoethyl cellulose with high degree of substitution (2.6-3) has high waterproofness, high insulation and self-extinguishing property. Therefore, by combining cyanoethyl cellulose with different degrees of substitution with cellulose nanofiber, the waterproofness, thermal stability and mechanical properties of the prepared composite insulation paper are improved.

[0038] Figure 1 Transmission electron microscope image of cellulose nanofiber, magnified 100,000 times, Figure 2 Transmission electron microscope image of cellulose nanofiber, magnified 20,000 times, from Figure 1 、 Figure 2 It can be seen that the cellulose nanofiber has a large aspect ratio, and its nanoscale size and one-dimensional structure make it have a high specific surface area, high electrical conductivity, excellent mechanical strength and thermal conductivity. The excellent performance of cellulose nanofiber can make the finally prepared insulation paper have good insulation performance and excellent mechanical strength, so it can be combined with other substances to improve the insulation effect of the insulation paper. At the same time, as the fluorination degree (fluorocarbon ratio) of the fluorinated carbon nanotube increases, its electrical conductivity will decrease. That is, the higher the fluorination degree, the lower the electrical conductivity of the fluorinated carbon nanotube, and the adsorption capacity and hydrophobicity will be enhanced; at the same time, the higher the fluorine content, the better the thermal stability. Therefore, by combining fluorinated carbon nanotubes with different fluorocarbon ratios with cellulose nanofiber to prepare composite insulation paper, the thermal stability, insulation and waterproofness of the prepared composite insulation paper can also be enhanced. In addition, the insulation performance of the insulation paper can also be improved, thereby solving the problems of traditional cellulose insulation paper, such as easy moisture absorption, poor thermal stability and easy aging.

[0039] In summary, by using cyanoethyl cellulose with different degrees of substitution and / or fluorinated carbon nanotubes with different fluorocarbon ratios as functional units for regulating the dielectric constant of the insulation paper, a composite insulation paper with adjustable dielectric constant can be obtained, and the insulation system of the transformer can be constructed by using composite insulation papers with different dielectric constants, so as to realize the safe and reliable operation of the high-performance transformer.

[0040] Example 1:

[0044] 3) The cyanoethyl cellulose with a degree of substitution of 2.35 in step 2) is uniformly mixed with fluorocarbon nanotubes with a fluorocarbon ratio of 0.8 and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with a molecular weight of 300,000 at a mass ratio of 1:5 by ultrasonic, shearing and stirring treatment to obtain a spinning solution, as shown in Figure 3 The spinning solution is loaded into a syringe and fixed on the injection pump of the electrospinning machine to perform electrospinning, a suitable fiber receiving device is selected and connected to the negative electrode, placed directly below the needle, and the nanofiber is deposited on the fiber receiving device to obtain fluorocarbon nanotube / cyanoethyl cellulose coaxial fiber (FC@CEC), which is placed in a vacuum drying oven at 60℃ for 48h.

[0045] 4) The cellulose nanofiber dispersion liquid is mixed with the FC@CEC prepared in step 3) at a ratio of 1:1, and the pulp is mixed uniformly by high-speed shearing at 14000rpm for 25min, and finally the composite pulp is obtained.

[0046] 5) The composite pulp is repeatedly sprayed on the substrate by electrostatic spraying to form a gel, and the thickness of the gel is 500μm.

[0047] 6) The gel sample is dried at 60℃ in vacuum for 48h to obtain a composite insulation paper rough paper;

[0062] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the mass ratio of the cellulose nanofiber to FC@CEC is 5:1, and the dielectric constant of the composite insulation paper obtained is 3.6.

[0063] Comparative Example 1:

[0064] The cyan ethyl cellulose with a degree of substitution of 1.13 and the fluorocarbon nanotube with a fluorocarbon ratio of 0.8 are made into FC@CEC by electrospinning. The same coaxial fiber and cellulose nanofiber are mixed at a ratio of 1:1 by high-speed shearing to obtain a composite slurry. The composite insulation paper is obtained by electrostatic spraying, and the new composite insulation paper is obtained by high-temperature hot pressing. The dielectric constant of the composite insulation paper is 3.
