Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of structural bonding of composite materials, and in particular to a bonding tool and a preparation method of a composite material with low-defect adhesive film and controllable thickness. Background Art

[0002] With the development of aerospace and high-speed trains, the connection of multiple materials has become increasingly important. Compared with traditional mechanical fastening and welding, adhesive bonding technology has the advantages of more uniform stress distribution, better fatigue and impact resistance, prevention of electrochemical corrosion and weight reduction, especially in the field of lightweighting. At present, traditional autoclave technology is mostly used for composite bonding. This process has a wide range of applications and strong flexibility in pressurization. However, due to the pre-control of the gap between the layers of the composite material, the applied external pressure cannot be transmitted to the adhesive film, resulting in a low curing pressure, which will cause an increase in porosity; if the adhesive film is first filled into the gap between the layers of the composite material and then pressurized, the curing pressure reaches the requirement, but the thickness of the adhesive film will be affected by the change in pressure.

[0003] In the composite material bonding process, if the gap distance between composite material layers is pre-controlled by the fixture according to the film thickness requirement in advance, and then the film is filled into the gap, the purpose of controllable film thickness can be achieved. However, because the interlayer spacing is pre-controlled, the pressure transmission of the fixture cannot be transmitted to the film, and the pores in the film cannot be effectively reduced. If the film is placed in the interlayer gap and then pressure is applied, the pores in the film will be effectively reduced, but the film will be deformed, causing the film thickness of the composite material bonded under this process to fail to meet the experimental and production requirements. In the fields of aerospace and rail transportation, the porosity of the main load-bearing structural parts should be less than 1%, the porosity of the secondary load-bearing structural parts should be less than 2%, and there are high requirements for the film thickness of the component bonding area. Therefore, when using a bonding tooling system with controllable film thickness, if you want to obtain a composite material bonding component that meets the experimental and production standards, solving the contradiction that the film thickness can be controlled and the pressure can be reached at the same time is the main goal of the bonding tooling system with controllable film thickness, and it is also a problem that technicians in this field need to solve.

[0004] Due to the contradiction between the controllable film thickness and the achievable pressure at the bonding of composite materials, the pre-controlled film process is an appropriate means. In order to solve the problem of high porosity of components under the pre-filled film process, it is a problem to be solved by relevant personnel to select a suitable method to suppress pore defects with different morphological characteristics, improve the mechanical and mechanical properties of the parts, and obtain excellent macro-micro interface properties.

The bracket base is located at the bottom of the gluing clamp, and the support rod is arranged at one end of the gluing clamp, and the lower end is connected to the bracket base.

[0010] Step S1, determining the thickness of the adhesive film according to preparation requirements;

[0011] Step S2, using a bonding fixture to fix the two composite material panels to be bonded, and placing a bonding film that meets the thickness requirements between the bonded parts of the composite material, thereby obtaining a composite material preform;

[0012] Step S3, placing the bonding fixture and the composite material preform to be processed flat as a whole in a heating furnace for heating and heat preservation treatment; wherein, during a certain period of the heat preservation process, ultrasonic vibration along the in-plane direction is provided to the bonding part of the composite material by an ultrasonic auxiliary device;

[0013] Step S4: After the heat preservation is completed, the composite material preform is heated for a second time and subsequently cured, thereby finally obtaining a composite material with a low-defect film and controllable thickness.

[0014] Furthermore, in step S2, the two pre-glued composite panels are first placed on the inner sides of two large pressure plates respectively, and then the two small pressure plates are clamped respectively by adjusting the second adjusting rod, and then the two large pressure plates are adjusted by the first adjusting rod, and the gap distance between the two composite panels is determined by using a vernier caliper.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the various embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings, but it should be noted that these embodiments are not limitations of the present invention, and any equivalent transformations or substitutions in functions, methods, or structures made by ordinary technicians in the field based on these embodiments are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 3 The embodiment of the present invention provides a bonding tool for composite materials with low-defect adhesive film and controllable thickness, including a curing box 1, a bonding fixture 2 and an ultrasonic vibration auxiliary device 3; the specific structure is as follows:

[0033] The adhesive clamp 2 is arranged in the curing box 1, and includes a clamp body 2.1, two large pressure plates 2.2 arranged in parallel in the inner cavity of the clamp body 2.1, and two small pressure plates 2.3 located between the two large pressure plates 2.2 and parallel to the large pressure plates 2.2. Each large pressure plate 2.2 is equipped with at least one first adjustment rod 2.4, which penetrates a side wall of the clamp body 2.1 and is connected to the corresponding large pressure plate 2.2. Each small pressure plate 2.3 is equipped with a second adjustment rod 2.5; the second adjustment rod 2.5 penetrates a side wall of the clamp body 2.1 and the large pressure plate 2.2 close to the side wall from the outside to the inside, and is connected to the small pressure plate 2.3. The ultrasonic vibration auxiliary device 3 includes an ultrasonic vibrator 3.1, an ultrasonic rod 3.2 and an ultrasonic generator 3.3. The ultrasonic vibrator 3.1 is arranged in the curing box 1 and above the bonding fixture 2. The ultrasonic rod 3.2 is arranged at the bottom of the ultrasonic vibrator 3.1. The ultrasonic generator 3.3 is arranged outside the curing box 1. The ultrasonic generator 3.3 is connected to the ultrasonic vibrator 3.1 and is used to perform ultrasonic vibration treatment on the adhesive film B at the bonding place of the composite material with bonding to reduce the porosity. The ultrasonic vibration auxiliary device 3 includes a fixed bracket supporting the ultrasonic rod 3.1. The fixed bracket includes a bracket base 3.4, a support rod 3.5 and a connecting piece 3.6. The bracket base 3.4 is located at the bottom of the bonding fixture 2. The support rod 3.5 is arranged at one end of the bonding fixture 2, and the lower end is connected to the bracket base 3.4; a plurality of connecting holes are arranged on the support rod 3.5. The connecting piece 3.6 is arranged on the support rod 3.5 so as to be adjustable up and down through these connecting holes. The connecting piece 3.6 is used to clamp the ultrasonic rod 3.1. In this structural setting, metal gaskets C are also provided between the first adjusting rod 2.4 and the large pressure plate 2.2 and between the second adjusting rod 2.5 and the small pressure plate 2.3; each large pressure plate 2.2 is equipped with two or more first adjusting rods 2.4 to evenly apply bonding pressure to the composite material plate A to be bonded.

[0034] Compared with the traditional clamps that control the thickness of the adhesive film by squeezing or placing a metal plate between two composite material plates A, the adhesive clamp of the present invention effectively controls the thickness of the adhesive film through the bolt structure and the equalizing plate and avoids the problem of processing metal plates with different thickness requirements, which not only improves the production efficiency, but also well controls the production cost. The specific clamping process of the adhesive bonding of this embodiment is: first fix any composite material plate to one end of the adhesive bonding clamp (located between one of the large pressure plates 2.2 and one of the small pressure plates 2.3), and then use a vernier caliper to determine the spacing between the two composite material plates, and then rotate the bolt structure (including: the first adjustment rod 2.4 and the second adjustment rod 2.5) to make the other composite material plate (located between the other large pressure plate 2.2 and the other small pressure plate 2.3) reach the predetermined position, and clamp the two composite material plates A respectively at the same time to achieve the purpose of fixing, and finally fill the adhesive film between the two composite material plates A, thereby completing the entire clamping process.

[0035] See also Figure 4 The present invention also provides a method for preparing a composite material with low defect film thickness and controllable thickness, wherein the composite material is prepared by using the above-mentioned bonding tool, and the preparation method comprises the following steps:

[0036] Step S1, determine the thickness of the adhesive film B according to the preparation requirements; wherein, when selecting the thickness of the adhesive film, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the material properties, thickness, bonding strength, application environment and economic factors. Before actual application, some experiments are carried out to determine the most suitable adhesive film thickness for a specific composite material according to different requirements and the characteristics of the composite material. For example: in the adhesive repair structure of carbon fiber reinforced composite materials, the adhesive area is very thin, and its thickness is generally only 0.1 to 0.2 mm. Too high or too low will affect the performance of the repaired component.

[0037] Step S2, using the adhesive fixture 2 to fix the two composite material plates A (interlayer hybrid composite material) to be glued, and placing the adhesive film that meets the thickness requirements of step S1 between the glued parts of the two composite material plates A, so as to obtain a composite material preform. In this step, firstly place the two pre-glued composite material plates A inside the two large pressure plates 2.2 respectively, and then adjust the second adjustment rod 2.5 to make the two small pressure plates 2.3 clamp the two composite material plates A respectively, and then adjust the two large pressure plates 2.2 by adjusting the first adjustment rod 2.4, and finally determine the gap distance between the two composite material plates A with the help of a vernier caliper. Specifically, the unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced bismaleimide resin (ZT7H / 5429) and woven quartz fiber reinforced bismaleimide resin (QW280 / 5429) composite laminates to be processed are placed on the inner sides of two large pressure plates 2.2 respectively, and then the two small pressure plates 2.3 are respectively pressed against the two composite plates A by rotating the second adjusting rod 2.5 to achieve a clamping effect; and then the gap distance between the two composite plates A is determined by rotating the first adjusting rod 2.4 and using a vernier caliper to achieve a controllable effect on the thickness of the film.

[0038] Step S3, placing the bonding fixture 2 and the composite material preform to be processed flat as a whole in a heating furnace for heating and heat preservation treatment; wherein, the heating and heat preservation treatment is to heat the composite material preform to be bonded in a curing box at a heating rate of 1.5-2.5℃ / min from room temperature to 140-150℃, and keep it warm for 60min; heating and heat preservation use a nickel-chromium alloy electric heating wire heater to heat the air, and the heated air mainly enters the curing box through the hot air outlet to heat the preform in a forced convection manner. During a certain period of the heat preservation process, ultrasonic vibration along the in-plane direction is provided to the composite material bonding point through an ultrasonic auxiliary device; the power of the ultrasonic vibration is 400-600W, and the amplitude percentage is 40%; the heat preservation time is 60min, and ultrasonic vibration is added 30s-10min before the start of heat preservation.

[0039] Step S4: After the heat preservation is completed, the composite material preform treated in step S3 is heated for a second time and subsequently cured, and finally a composite material with low defect film thickness and controllable thickness is obtained. In this step, the second heating is to heat the interlayer hybrid composite material preform from 120°C to 180°C at a heating rate of 1.5°C / min and keep it warm for 150 minutes; the second heating uses a nickel-chromium alloy electric heating wire heater to heat and keep warm in the same way as the first heating.

[0040] The ultrasonic generator DW-S20-1000 of the ultrasonic auxiliary device used in the present invention is manufactured by Hangzhou Titanium Ultrasonic Technology Co., Ltd. The output frequency of the ultrasonic generator is 20kHz, the amplitude percentage is 20% to 100%, and the output power adjustment range is 0 to 900W. The ultrasonic vibrator of the ultrasonic vibration auxiliary device is fixed just above the adhesive film to provide ultrasonic vibration transmitted along the in-plane direction to the interlayer hybrid composite material preform. In the present invention, the equivalent diameter of the pores of the composite film is mainly distributed in the range of [5 to 50] μm. When 20kHz ultrasonic vibration is applied during the curing process of the composite adhesive component, the collapse of bubbles will be accelerated, the porosity in the component will be effectively reduced, and the mechanical properties of the component will be improved.

[0041] Example:

[0042] The preparation method of the present invention is used to cure the unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced bismaleimide resin / quartz fiber interlayer hybrid composite material, the unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced bismaleimide resin is selected from ZT7H / 5429, and the quartz fiber is selected from QW280 / 5429. Referring to the standard ASTM D3165, the laminate preparation size is 75mm×160mm, the bonding area size is 30mm×160mm, and after the secondary bonding, the left and right edges are cut off by a metallographic grinding wheel cutter to remove 15mm each, and then the test sample size is cut out to be 120mm×25.4mm, and 5 samples are taken. Figure 5 The composite material sample is shown in FIG. 1 , where the film thickness is 0.2 mm and the film system is J-116B.

[0043] 1. When the film thickness is controlled at 0.2mm:

[0044] (1) Comparative analysis from the perspective of porosity: When the interlayer hybrid composite material preform was subjected to ultrasonic vibration treatment at 0W, 300W, 600W, and 900W in the first heating stage and cured in the 0MPa pressure range, the porosity was 6.78%, 2.11%, 1.08%, and 2.34%, respectively. The overall porosity was less than 7%, and when the vibration power was 600W, the lowest porosity was 1.08%. Compared with the 0MPa workpiece without vibration treatment, the porosity dropped from 6.78% to 1.08%, indicating that the effect of low-defect cured formed components can be achieved after ultrasonic vibration treatment.

[0045] (2) Comparative analysis from the perspective of mechanical properties: Shear strength of bonded structures after different ultrasonic vibration treatments: The shear strengths of bonded components cured by 0W, 300W, 600W, and 900W power treatments were 10.89MPa, 12.58MPa, 15.45MPa, and 12.03MPa, respectively. The shear strength of bonded components treated with 600W ultrasonic vibration was 41.9% higher than that of samples without ultrasonic vibration treatment.

[0046] 2. When the ultrasonic vibration power is controlled at 600W:

[0047] (1) Comparative analysis from the perspective of porosity: When the thickness of the adhesive film in the interlayer hybrid composite preform is controlled at 0.1 mm, 0.2 mm, 0.5 mm, and 0.9 mm, respectively, the porosity is 1.78%, 1.06%, 1.25%, and 1.43%, respectively, and the porosity difference is not obvious.

[0048] (2) Comparative analysis from the perspective of mechanical properties: When the thickness of the adhesive film in the interlayer hybrid composite material is controlled at 0.1mm, 0.2mm, 0.5mm, and 0.9mm, the shear strength is 13.37MPa, 15.47MPa, 12.58MPa, and 10.78MPa, respectively. Therefore, when the thickness of the adhesive film is 0.2mm, the shear strength is the best.

[0049] It can be concluded that the porosity of the interlayer hybrid composite material component treated with ultrasonic vibration after forming is significantly reduced compared with the porosity of the component without vibration treatment, and the mechanical properties are better.
