Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a non-cross-linked polyethylene insulated medium-voltage flame-retardant power cable. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous progress and development of human society, the concept of sustainable development has been deeply rooted in people's hearts. Environmental protection has become an issue closely related to human survival and development, and its importance cannot be ignored. In the context of globalization, the rapid development of China's power system is particularly significant. The scale of China's power grid has ranked first in the world, and the demand for cables has reached an unprecedented level. In this context, promoting the sustainable development of the cable industry is not only in line with the requirements of the country's long-term development plan, but also a key link in achieving green economic transformation.

[0003] At present, cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is widely used as cable insulation material in power grids in my country and even the world. Although XLPE is favored for its good electrical properties and high temperature resistance, some problems are also exposed in practical applications. First, when these cables reach the end of their service life, due to their complex chemical structure, recycling becomes very difficult, resulting in a large amount of solid waste that cannot be effectively disposed of, causing a burden on the environment. Secondly, the cross-linking process and the subsequent degassing step not only prolong the production cycle, but also greatly increase manufacturing costs and energy consumption, which is obviously contrary to the current concept of energy conservation, carbon reduction and green development.

[0004] In view of this, finding new materials that can replace traditional cross-linked polyethylene has become a common focus of attention within and outside the industry. Non-cross-linked polyolefin materials, with their low processing energy consumption and excellent recyclability, have shown great potential in this field and have gradually become a hot topic of research. In particular, thermoplastic polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE)-based insulation materials are considered to be the main direction of future non-cross-linked cable development. PP has high hardness and brittleness at room temperature due to its high crystallinity; while early PE-based materials based on low-density polyethylene (LDPE) have problems with low melting point and insufficient high-temperature stability.

[0005] The present invention overcomes the above problems by introducing non-cross-linked polyethylene insulation material to prepare a non-cross-linked polyethylene insulated medium-voltage flame-retardant power cable. Summary of the invention

[0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a non-cross-linked polyethylene insulated medium voltage flame-retardant power cable to solve the technical problems mentioned in the above background technology.

[0007] The technical solution for achieving the purpose of the present invention is:

[0008] A non-cross-linked polyethylene insulated medium-voltage flame-retardant power cable, comprising a plurality of insulating cores arranged tangentially in pairs, a sheath wrapped around the outside of the plurality of insulating cores, an isolation sleeve wrapped around the outside of the sheath, an armored layer wrapped around the outside of the isolation sleeve, an outer sheath layer wrapped around the outside of the armored layer, and a filling layer filled between the plurality of insulating cores and between the plurality of cores and the sheath; the insulating core comprises, from the inside to the outside, a conductor, a conductor shielding layer, a non-cross-linked polyethylene insulating layer, an insulating shielding layer, and a metal shielding layer.

[0009] Furthermore, the conductor is formed by twisting a plurality of single-filament conductors; the conductor is any one of the second type of metal-coated annealed copper conductor, non-metal-coated annealed copper conductor, second type of aluminum conductor, and aluminum alloy conductor in accordance with GB / T 3956.

[0010] The present invention adopts any one of the second metal-plated annealed copper conductor, the non-metal-plated annealed copper conductor, the second aluminum conductor, and the aluminum alloy conductor that conforms to GB / T 3956. The prepared cable is more suitable for use in a medium-voltage power transmission system, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the cable.

[0011] Furthermore, the conductor shielding layer is formed by extruding a vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material onto the outer surface of the conductor.

[0012] Furthermore, the conductor shielding layer is firstly formed by wrapping a layer of semi-conductive wrapping tape around the conductor, and then extruding a vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material outside the semi-conductive wrapping tape.

[0013] The present invention adds a semiconductive wrapping tape before extruding the vinyl non-crosslinked semiconductive shielding material, which can realize double-layer shielding together with the vinyl non-crosslinked semiconductive shielding material, and on the other hand, makes the conductor more compact and facilitates the extrusion of the vinyl non-crosslinked semiconductive shielding material.

[0014] Furthermore, the thickness of the vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material at any point after extrusion should not be less than 0.6 mm.

[0015] Furthermore, the insulating shielding layer is formed by extruding a vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material onto the outer surface of a non-cross-linked polyethylene insulating layer.

[0016] Furthermore, the conductor shielding layer, the non-crosslinked polyethylene insulation layer and the insulation shielding layer adopt a three-layer co-extrusion process to extrude the vinyl non-crosslinked semi-conductive shielding material, the vinyl non-crosslinked insulation material and the vinyl non-crosslinked semi-conductive shielding material outside the conductor at one time.

[0017] The conductor shielding layer, the non-crosslinked polyethylene insulating layer and the insulating shielding layer of the present invention adopt a three-layer co-extrusion process, which can reduce the production process steps and improve production efficiency, closely combine the inner and outer shielding and the main insulation, and improve the initial free discharge voltage.

[0018] Furthermore, in the three-layer co-extrusion process, the extrusion screw temperature of the conductor shielding layer adopts 4 zones, and the temperature of each zone is: 70-80°C in zone 1, 145-155°C in zone 2, 150-160°C in zone 3, 150-160°C in zone 4, and the die head temperature is 160-170°C;

[0019] The extrusion screw temperature of the non-cross-linked polyethylene insulation layer adopts 5 zones, and the temperature of each zone is: Zone 1 100-110℃, Zone 2 150-160℃, Zone 3 170-180℃, Zone 4 170-180℃, Zone 5 170-180℃, and the die head is 180-190℃;

[0020] The extrusion screw temperature of the insulating shielding layer adopts 4 zones, and the temperature of each zone is: 70-80℃ in zone 1, 145-155℃ in zone 2, 150-160℃ in zone 3, 150-160℃ in zone 4, and the head temperature is 160-170℃.

[0021] Furthermore, after the conductor shielding layer, the non-cross-linked polyethylene insulation layer and the insulation shielding layer are co-extruded, they need to be cooled in a vulcanizing tube cooling section and a cooling tube cooling section in sequence.

[0022] Furthermore, the temperature of the cold section of the vulcanization pipe adopts 9 zones, and the temperature of each zone is: zone 1 35-50°C, zone 2 35-50°C, zone 3 80-100°C, zone 4 80-100°C, zone 5 80-100°C, zone 6 60-80°C, zone 7 60-80°C, zone 8 60-80°C, zone 9 60-80°C.

[0023] Furthermore, the metal shielding layer is formed by wrapping a copper tape around the outer surface of the insulating shielding layer.

[0024] Furthermore, the metal shielding layer is firstly wrapped with a layer of semi-conductive Tetoron tape outside the insulating shielding layer, and then wrapped with copper wire shielding; the semi-conductive Tetoron tape plays a role in preventing the copper wire from scratching the insulating core.

[0025] Furthermore, the filling layer is made of parallel stranded PP filling rope, fan-shaped PE filling strip or halogen-free flame-retardant filling rope.

[0026] Furthermore, the wrapping layer adopts halogen-free low-smoke flame-retardant glass cloth tape, which plays the role of flame retardancy and binding at the same time.

[0027] Furthermore, the armor layer adopts tinned steel strip or galvanized steel wire.

[0028] Furthermore, the outer sheath layer adopts flame retardant polyethylene or polyvinyl chloride sheath material.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0030] (1) The non-cross-linked polyethylene insulated medium voltage flame-retardant power cable of the present invention adopts non-cross-linked polyethylene insulation material to prepare the insulation core. The non-cross-linked polyethylene insulation material is a thermoplastic material, which is environmentally friendly and recyclable, and does not require cross-linking and degassing processes, thereby effectively reducing energy consumption and shortening the production cycle. Compared with traditional polypropylene (PP) insulation materials, non-cross-linked polyethylene not only has a lower extrusion temperature, further reducing energy consumption, but also has better performance in AC and DC electrical properties, mechanical properties, and resistance to water tree and electrical tree aging, avoiding the problems of high hardness and brittleness of PP materials at room temperature and the problem of insufficient high temperature stability of low-density polyethylene (LDPE).

[0031] (2) After the co-extrusion of the conductor shielding layer, the non-cross-linked polyethylene insulation layer and the insulation shielding layer of the present invention, they need to be cooled in a vulcanizing tube cold section and a cooling tube cold section in sequence, and then cooled in two sections. The temperature of each zone in the vulcanizing tube cold section is: 35-50°C for zone 1, 35-50°C for zone 2, 80-100°C for zone 3, 80-100°C for zone 4, 80-100°C for zone 5, 60-80°C for zone 6, 60-80°C for zone 7, 60-80°C for zone 8 and 60-80°C for zone 9. The crystallization of the vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material, the vinyl non-cross-linked insulation material and the vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material is more perfect, and it is not easy to generate internal stress. The internal stress of the obtained insulating wire core is better released, which affects the overall mechanical properties of the cable and the control of insulation eccentricity.

[0032] (3) The temperature of the cold section of the vulcanizing tube of the present invention is divided into 9 zones, and the temperature of each zone is: zone 1 35-50°C, zone 2 35-50°C, zone 3 80-100°C, zone 4 80-100°C, zone 5 80-100°C, zone 6 60-80°C, zone 7 60-80°C, zone 8 60-80°C, zone 9 60-80°C; under the cooling of the 9 zone temperatures, the conductor shielding layer, the non-cross-linked polyethylene insulation layer, and the insulation shielding layer are quickly formed, and the vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material, the vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material, and the vinyl non-cross-linked insulation material are more perfectly crystallized under this cooling process, and it is not easy to generate internal stress to affect the overall mechanical properties of the cable and the control of insulation eccentricity.

[0033] (4) The present invention adopts any one of the second metal-coated annealed copper conductor, the non-metal-coated annealed copper conductor, the second aluminum conductor, and the aluminum alloy conductor that conforms to GB / T 3956. The cable produced is more suitable for use in a medium-voltage power transmission system, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the cable.

[0034] (5) The present invention adds a semi-conductive wrapping tape before extruding the vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material. On the one hand, it can achieve double-layer shielding together with the vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material. On the other hand, it makes the conductor more compact and facilitates the extrusion of the vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material.

[0035] (6) The conductor shielding layer, non-cross-linked polyethylene insulation layer, and insulation shielding layer of the present invention adopt a three-layer co-extrusion process, which can reduce the production process steps and improve production efficiency, and closely combine the layers of the wire core together, making the overall structure more compact.

[0048] The conductor shielding layer 2 is formed by extruding a vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material on the outer surface of the conductor 1 .

[0049] The conductor shielding layer 2 is formed by firstly wrapping a layer of semi-conductive wrapping tape around the conductor 1, and then extruding a vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material outside the semi-conductive wrapping tape.

[0051] The insulating shielding layer 4 is formed by extruding a vinyl non-cross-linked semi-conductive shielding material onto the outer surface of the non-cross-linked polyethylene insulating layer 3 .

[0052] The conductor shielding layer 2, the non-crosslinked polyethylene insulation layer 3 and the insulation shielding layer 4 adopt a three-layer co-extrusion process to extrude vinyl non-crosslinked semi-conductive shielding material, vinyl non-crosslinked insulation material and vinyl non-crosslinked semi-conductive shielding material out of the conductor at one time.

[0053] The three-layer co-extrusion process adopts the multifunctional catenary production line of XLPE and PP cables produced by Finland's Mailafeel Company; the filter adopts a structure in which each piece has its own locked edge. Among them, the insulating filter is selected to be used in 5 layers, with mesh numbers of 20, 78, 156, 78, and 20 respectively; the conductor shielding and insulation shielding filters are selected to be used in 3 layers, with mesh numbers of 20, 78, and 20 respectively.

[0055] In the three-layer co-extrusion process, the extrusion screw temperature of the conductor shielding layer adopts 4 zones, and the temperature of each zone is: 70-80°C in zone 1, 145-155°C in zone 2, 150-160°C in zone 3, and 150-160°C in zone 4, and the die head temperature is 160-170°C;

The vinyl non-crosslinked insulating material of the invention is prepared by adopting a thermoplastic insulating polyethylene cable material and a preparation method thereof disclosed in Chinese invention patent CN118755181A.

[0059] The metal shielding layer is formed by wrapping a copper tape around the outer surface of the insulating shielding layer.

[0060] The metal shielding layer is firstly wrapped with a layer of semi-conductive Tetoron tape outside the insulating shielding layer, and then wrapped with copper wire shielding; the semi-conductive Tetoron tape plays a role in preventing the copper wire from scratching the insulating wire core.

[0061] The filling layer is made of parallel stranded PP filling rope, fan-shaped PE filling strip or halogen-free flame-retardant filling rope.

[0062] The wrapping layer adopts halogen-free low-smoke flame-retardant glass cloth tape, which plays the role of flame retardancy and binding at the same time.

[0092] The insulating shielding layer 4 is formed by extruding a PP cable semi-conductive shielding material onto the outer surface of the PP insulating layer 3 .

[0093] The conductor shielding layer 2, the PP insulating layer and the insulating shielding layer 4 are made of PP cable semi-conductive shielding material, PP cable semi-conductive shielding material and PP cable insulating material by a three-layer co-extrusion process.

[0094] The three-layer co-extrusion process adopts the multifunctional catenary production line of XLPE and PP cables produced by Finland's Mailafell Company; the filter adopts a structure in which each piece has its own locked edge. Among them, the insulating filter is selected to be used in 5 layers, with mesh numbers of 20, 80, 150, 80, and 20 respectively; the conductor shielding and insulation shielding filters are selected to be used in 3 layers, with mesh numbers of 20, 80, and 20 respectively.

[0095] The filter can filter out impurities in the material flow, prevent unplasticized PP cable semi-conductive shielding material, PP cable semi-conductive shielding material, and PP cable from entering the machine head, and at the same time increase the material flow resistance to make it denser.

[0096] In the three-layer co-extrusion process, the extrusion screw temperature of the conductor shielding layer adopts 4 zones, and the temperature of each zone is: 150°C in zone 1, 170°C in zone 2, 190°C in zone 3, 195°C in zone 4, and the die head temperature is 200°C;

[0097] The extrusion screw temperature of the PP insulation layer adopts 5 zones, and the temperature of each zone is: 105℃, 160℃, 175℃, 180℃, 180℃, and the head is 180℃;

[0098] The extrusion screw temperature of the insulating shielding layer 4 is divided into four zones, and the temperature of each zone is: 150°C for zone 1, 170°C for zone 2, 190°C for zone 3, 195°C for zone 4, 195°C for zone 5, and 200°C for the die head.

[0099] After the co-extrusion of the conductor shielding layer 2, the PP insulating layer 3 and the insulating shielding layer 4, they need to be cooled in turn by the vulcanizing tube cold section and the cooling tube cold section. The temperature of the vulcanizing tube cold section adopts 9 zones, and the temperature of each zone is: zone 1 80°C, zone 2 80°C, zone 3 40°C, zone 4 40°C, zone 5 40°C, zone 6 40°C, zone 7 40°C, zone 8 40°C, zone 9 40°C.

[0100] The metal shielding layer is formed by wrapping a copper tape around the outer surface of the insulating shielding layer.

[0101] The metal shielding layer is firstly wrapped with a layer of semi-conductive Tetoron tape outside the insulating shielding layer, and then wrapped with copper wire shielding; the semi-conductive Tetoron tape plays a role in preventing the copper wire from scratching the insulating wire core.

[0102] The filling layer is made of parallel stranded PP filling rope, fan-shaped PE filling strip or halogen-free flame-retardant filling rope.

[0103] The wrapping layer adopts halogen-free low-smoke flame-retardant glass cloth tape, which plays the role of flame retardancy and binding at the same time.

[0104] The armor layer is made of tinned steel strip or galvanized steel wire.

[0105] The outer sheath layer is made of flame-retardant polyethylene or polyvinyl chloride sheath material.

[0106] After testing, the insulation eccentricity of the medium voltage flame retardant power cable under this process was ≤8%, and the elongation at break before aging was measured to be 540%.

[0107] Comparison between Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 shows that Example 1 uses non-cross-linked polyethylene insulation material to prepare a medium-voltage flame-retardant power cable through vulcanization tube cold section cooling and cooling tube cold section cooling compared to the traditional PP insulation material in Comparative Example 1. The insulation eccentricity of the medium-voltage flame-retardant power cable prepared in Example 1 is lower than the insulation eccentricity of the medium-voltage flame-retardant power cable prepared in Comparative Example 1, and the elongation at break of the medium-voltage flame-retardant power cable in Example 1 is much higher than the elongation at break of the comparative document 1. This is because the non-cross-linked polyethylene insulation material in Example 1 is used as The raw material combining process uses vulcanization tube cold section cooling and cooling at both ends of the cooling tube cold section cooling, wherein the temperature of each zone of the vulcanization tube cold section cooling is: zone one 40°C, zone two 40°C, zone three 80°C, zone four 80°C, zone five 80°C, zone six 80°C, zone seven 80°C, zone eight 80°C, zone nine 80°C; the internal stress of the insulating core made of non-cross-linked polyethylene insulation material and at this vulcanization tube cold section cooling temperature is fully released, and the insulation eccentricity of the obtained medium voltage flame-retardant power cable is better controlled and the mechanical properties are also better.
