Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fiber preparation, in particular to a high-pressure sampling system and a sampling method thereof, and a high-pressure flash spray device. Background Art

[0002] At present, high-pressure flash spinning belongs to solution spinning. Its basic principle is the high-speed phase separation principle of polymer solution. The fiber-forming polymer forms a spinning fluid under high temperature and high pressure conditions in the reaction vessel and is released under normal pressure. The spinning fluid is ejected from the spinneret at high speed under high pressure and is stretched at high speed during high-speed movement. Due to the sudden drop in pressure, the spinning fluid undergoes high-speed phase separation, and the low-boiling point solvent and supercritical gas expand rapidly. After solidification, nano-micron continuous long fibers with a cross-linked network structure are formed.

[0003] In high-pressure flash jet spinning technology, the composition of the spinning fluid is a key factor affecting the final performance of the fiber. However, due to the formation conditions of high temperature and high pressure, the composition of the high-pressure flash jet spinning fluid and the gas medium in the reaction vessel cannot be analyzed, which greatly limits the controllable preparation of high-pressure flash jet nanofibers by regulating the composition of the high-pressure flash jet spinning fluid. Summary of the invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a sampling system and a sampling method thereof, and a high-pressure flash spray device to measure the composition of the high-pressure flash spray spinning fluid and the gas phase medium in the reaction container.

[0012] In order to achieve the same purpose, in a second aspect, the present invention further provides a high-pressure flash spray device, comprising the high-pressure sampling system described in the first aspect.

[0013] In the third aspect, the present invention also provides a sampling method based on the high-pressure sampling system of the first aspect, wherein a polymer and a solvent are sequentially added into the reactor, and gas is introduced into the reactor. When the temperature of the reactor reaches 120-220°C and the pressure reaches 5-20MPa, the first sampling device and the second sampling device are heated to the same temperature as the reactor, and then liquid phase sampling of the flash jet spinning fluid and gas phase medium sampling in the reactor are performed to determine the composition of the high-pressure flash jet spinning fluid and the composition of the gas phase medium in the reactor.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, a sampling system of a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a reactor 1, a first sampling device 2, and a second sampling device 3. A first sampling tube 5 is connected between the first sampling device 2 and the reactor 1, and a second sampling tube 6 is connected between the second sampling device 3 and the reactor 1. The first sampling tube 5 is partially inserted at the bottom of the reactor 1, and the second sampling tube 6 is partially inserted at the top of the reactor 1. A first sampling valve 7 is provided on the first sampling tube 5, and a second sampling valve 9 is provided on the second sampling tube 6. Both the first sampling valve 7 and the second sampling valve 9 are arranged outside the reactor 1.

[0022] Based on the above technical solution, first, in this embodiment, the polymer and the solvent are sequentially added into the reactor 1, and the gas is introduced into the reactor 1, the first sampling valve 7 and the second sampling valve 9 are closed to seal the reactor 1, and the reactor 1 is stirred to prepare the flash spinning fluid. Due to the density difference, the liquid medium settles in the lower layer of the reactor 1, and the gas is placed in the upper layer of the reactor 1, so the first sampling tube 5 is partially inserted at the bottom of the reactor 1 for liquid medium sampling, and the second sampling tube 6 is partially inserted at the top of the reactor 1 for gas medium sampling;

[0023] Secondly, the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 are evacuated to form a negative pressure state, and after the vacuum is drawn, the first sampling valve 7 and the second sampling valve 9 are closed, and the masses M0 and M1 of the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 are weighed respectively, and then the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 are connected to the reactor 1 respectively, and then the reactor 1 is heated and pressurized. When the flash jet spinning fluid is in a high temperature and high pressure state, the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 are also heated to the same temperature as the reactor 1, and then the first sampling valve 7 and the second sampling valve 9 are opened, so that the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 respectively perform liquid medium sampling and gas medium sampling of flash jet spinning under the negative pressure state;

[0024] Finally, when the temperature of the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 drops to room temperature, the masses M2 and M3 of the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 are weighed respectively; if the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 are placed under -10-25°C and vacuum is drawn, the masses M4 and M5 of the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 are weighed, the solid in the first sampling device 2 is taken out and dried, and the remaining solid mass M6 is weighed; the mass of each component in the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 is calculated according to the mass difference, so as to determine the composition of the spinning fluid and the composition of the gas phase medium in the reactor 1.

[0049] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first sampling tube 5 is also provided with a third sampling valve 8, and the second sampling tube 6 is also provided with a fourth sampling valve 10, and the third sampling valve 8 and the fourth sampling valve 10 are both arranged outside the reactor 1. Specifically, the first sampling valve 7 is arranged at one end close to the first sampling device 2, the third sampling valve 8 is arranged at one end close to the reactor 1, the second sampling valve 9 is arranged at one end close to the second sampling device 3, and the fourth sampling valve 10 is arranged at one end close to the reactor 1, so as to form a pipeline structure of a primary valve and a secondary valve on the first sampling tube 5 and the second sampling tube 6 respectively. When the valve needs to be closed after sampling, the third sampling valve 8 or the second sampling valve 9 of the high temperature test is closed first, and then the first sampling valve 7 or the second sampling valve 9 of the low temperature test is closed, so that when sampling flash spinning under high temperature and high pressure conditions, a safer double guarantee can be formed.

After the flash jet spinning fluid sampling and component determination are completed, the first pressure relief valve 13 and the second pressure relief valve 14 are opened to release the pressure of the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3, so as to facilitate the next sampling and determination.

[0053] More specifically, in this embodiment, the first sampling valve 7, the second sampling valve 9, the third sampling valve 8 and the fourth sampling valve 10 are all one-way valves, which control the unidirectional flow of liquid medium or gas medium and cut off the reverse flow to avoid the backflow of the medium and affect the sampling and measurement.

[0055] In order to achieve the same purpose, the present invention also provides a sampling method for high-pressure flash jet spinning, wherein a polymer and a solvent are added into the reactor 1 in sequence, and gas is introduced into the reactor 1. When the temperature of the reactor 1 reaches 120-220°C and the pressure reaches 5-20MPa, the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 are heated to the same temperature as the reactor 1, and then the liquid phase sampling of the flash jet spinning fluid and the gas phase medium sampling in the reactor 1 are performed, so as to determine the composition of the high-pressure flash jet spinning fluid and the composition of the gas phase medium in the reactor 1.

[0056] More specifically, the sampling method comprises the following steps:

[0057] S1, adding a polymer and a solvent to a reactor 1 in sequence, introducing gas into the reactor 1, closing the third sampling valve 8 and the fourth sampling valve 10, sealing the reactor 1, and then stirring the reactor 1 to prepare a flash jet spinning fluid;

[0059] S3, evacuate the second sampling device 3, close the second sampling valve 9 after evacuating the vacuum, weigh the mass M1 of the second sampling device 3, and connect the second sampling device 3 to the reactor 1;

[0060] S4, heating and pressurizing the reactor 1 to a temperature of 120-220°C and a pressure of 5-20MPa. When the flash jet spinning fluid is under high temperature and high pressure, heating the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 to the same temperature as the reactor 1, first opening the first sampling valve 7 and the second sampling valve 9, and then opening the third sampling valve 8 and the fourth sampling valve 10, keeping the third sampling valve 8 and the fourth sampling valve 10 open for 1-3 seconds and then closing them, and then closing the first sampling valve 7 and the second sampling valve 9, and recording the temperatures of the first sampling device 2 and the second sampling device 3 at this time, thereby completing the liquid medium sampling and gas medium sampling of the flash jet spinning;

[0061] S5.
