AI Technical Summary

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for preparing hollow cross-section polyacrylonitrile dry-jet wet-spun carbon fibers, belonging to the field of carbon fiber preparation technology. Background Technology
[0002] Hollow fibers are fibers with cavities along their axial cross-section. Due to their unique cross-sectional shape, hollow fibers have a significantly increased surface area compared to circular cross-section fibers, potentially leading to improved composite properties with the matrix. The cavities in hollow fibers provide still air, enhancing their warmth retention and increasing surface area per unit volume, thus improving their bulkiness. The ability of hollow fibers to absorb water, air, blood, and other media, as well as their bonding ability with the matrix material when used as composites, not only improves their stiffness and rigidity but also enhances their bending resistance and abrasion resistance. Filling their interior with hollow elements could potentially create hollow fibers with specific functionalities. Currently, hollow fiber cross-sections are mainly produced through melt spinning, electrospinning, and wet spinning. Hollow fibers primarily include polyester fibers, glass fibers, carbon fibers, and nanofibers. Polypropylene (PP), polyester, polyamide, polyacrylonitrile, polystyrene, polyethylene, nylon, cellulose acetate, and various nylon, polyester, acrylic, and polypropylene fibers can all be processed into hollow fibers using appropriate spinning techniques.
[0003] Dry-jet wet spinning technology can effectively improve the mechanical properties and spinning speed of polyacrylonitrile fibers and is an engineering-feasible technology. However, the dry-jet wet spinning process is extremely cumbersome. Under the influence of surface tension, the forming process of the spinning solution with viscoelastic properties after passing through a special hollow spinneret is far more complex than that after passing through a circular spinneret. The spinning solution undergoes extrusion and expansion after passing through the special hollow spinneret, but due to the difference in the structure of the hollow spinneret, the shear force on the solution is uneven, which can easily lead to the breakage of the fine stream. Moreover, the design of the inner and outer diameters of the spinneret is crucial. However, if the difference between the inner and outer diameters is too small, the solution is prone to breakage after extrusion under a large N2 pressure, and the hollow fibers cannot withstand the strong driving force of the coagulation bath process, resulting in poor compactness. If the difference between the inner and outer diameters is too large, the solution is prone to bonding into a circular solid filament after extrusion through the air layer, resulting in excessive deviation of the hollow fibers. Therefore, the prepared hollow carbon fibers are required to have a suitable inner-outer diameter ratio, E. i Defined as:
[0004]
[0005] The relative deviation S is represented by the ratio of the absolute value of the fiber inner-outer diameter ratio Ei and the difference between the inner and outer diameters E of the spinneret to the inner and outer diameters E of the spinneret:
[0006]
[0007] In the formula, d is the inscribed circle diameter of the hollow cross-section carbon fiber, A1 is the area of the shaded portion of the hollow cross-section carbon fiber, D is the circumscribed circle diameter of the hollow cross-section carbon fiber, and A0 is the circumscribed circle area of the fiber. The unique surface morphology of hollow cross-section fibers allows oxygen to penetrate more easily into the interior during the pre-oxidation process. This alleviates radial non-uniformity of the fiber, improves the uniformity of pre-oxidized filaments, and reduces the core-sheath ratio of the carbon fiber. Furthermore, it increases the reaction rate, reduces the fiber travel time, lowers the reactor operating temperature, and enables rapid carbon fiber preparation, thus reducing production costs. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for preparing hollow cross-section polyacrylonitrile dry-jet wet-spun carbon fibers. The method first involves spraying the spinning solution through a spinneret with an annular cavity into a coagulation bath to form nascent fibers with a hollow cross-section. The fibers undergo multi-stage desalination washing, water drawing, oiling, drying, steam drawing, and then winding to obtain a hollow cross-section precursor fiber. This precursor fiber is then pre-oxidized and carbonized to obtain carbon fibers with a hollow cross-section.

[0035] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0036] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the spinneret used in this invention includes a first plate body 1 and a second plate body 2. The first plate body 1 has several through holes 4 and several needle-containing cylinders 8, with an annular groove 3 at the top and an annular groove 5 at the bottom. The second plate body 2 has several through holes containing micropores 9. The first plate body 1 and the second plate body 2 are fitted together to form a slurry inlet channel 6. The needle-containing cylinders 8 on the first plate body and the micropore-containing through holes 9 on the second plate body correspond one-to-one to form an annular cavity 7. The through holes 4 connect to the slurry inlet channel 6, and the slurry inlet channel 6 connects to the annular cavity 7. Rubber rings are installed in the annular grooves 3 and 5. The top of the second plate body 2 abuts against the bottom of the first plate body 1. The top of the first plate body 1 abuts against the raw material feed pipe.
[0037] Specifically, the first plate 1 is circular in shape. Through holes 4 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the first plate 1, and the number of through holes 4 is 1 to 2K. Needle-containing cylinders 8 are located within the through holes 4 and are evenly distributed along the center of the first plate 1. The number of needle-containing cylinders 8 is 1 to 5K, the length of the cylinder is 10 to 15 mm, the diameter of the cylinder is 3 to 5 mm, the needle length is 0.3 to 1.0 mm, and the needle diameter is 0.3 to 0.8 mm.

[0040] Specifically, a rubber ring is installed in the annular groove 5 to seal the connection between the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 to prevent leakage.
[0041] In this invention, the top of the first spinneret 1 rests against the spinning solution feed pipe. The spinning solution flows into the through hole 4 through the feed pipe, passes through the first spinneret 1, then flows into the slurry inlet channel 6, and then into the annular cavity 7. It then passes through the second spinneret 2 and is extruded to obtain a spinning solution with a hollow cross-section. The hollow cross-section spinning solution is then solidified and drawn to form nascent fibers with a hollow cross-section, such as... Figure 2 As shown, hollow cross-section carbon fibers are then produced through subsequent processes.

The oiled fibers are then dried and densified using hot rollers with a temperature gradient of 100–185℃, maintaining a drying roller pressure of 0.55MPa, with 25 drying rollers. The dried and densified fiber bundles are then steam drawn at a saturated steam pressure of 0.45MPa and a steam draw ratio of 3.55. After steam drawing, the fibers are wound to obtain hollow cross-section precursor yarn. The precursor yarn is then passed through a unwinding rack and pre-oxidized in a pre-oxidation furnace at a pre-oxidation temperature of 240℃ and a pre-oxidation draw ratio of 0.98. Pre-oxidized fibers were sequentially carbonized in a low-temperature furnace and a high-temperature furnace to prepare carbon fibers with a hollow cross-section.
