Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of cable protective layer materials, and in particular relates to a migration-resistant and environment-friendly flexible PVC sheathed cable. Background Art

[0002] Polyvinyl chloride is a common plastic material with good insulation and can effectively block electric current; it has good chemical corrosion resistance and can often be used in harsh environmental conditions, such as moisture, acid, alkali and other corrosive media; it has high mechanical strength and wear resistance, can withstand a certain amount of tension and pressure, so that the product is not easily damaged during use and has a long service life; it also has good fire resistance and flame retardant properties, safety and reliability, and low cost. This makes PVC cables widely used in power transmission and electrical equipment.

[0003] However, due to the large intermolecular polarity of PVC materials, a large amount of plasticizers need to be added to improve their flexibility and processability. However, plasticizers are easy to migrate from the product to the outside, especially under the influence of heat, pressure and other environmental factors. After the plasticizers migrate out of the PVC cable, they will pollute the soil where the cable is located, and it is easy to endanger human health after contact with the environment. Therefore, controlling the migration of plasticizers is of great significance in terms of environmental protection, and has always been a focus in the field of PVC cables.

[0004] Among them, phthalates are the most widely used plasticizer in the field of PVC products. Compared with some large molecular weight plasticizers, phthalates and other plasticizers with smaller molecular weight are more likely to migrate out of the PVC matrix. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a migration-resistant and environment-friendly flexible PVC sheathed cable, comprising one or more core units, each core unit comprising a conductor core, a shielding layer coaxially tightly wrapped outside the conductor core, and an insulating layer coaxially tightly wrapped outside the shielding layer. All the core units are twisted together as a whole, coaxially tightly wrapped by a flame retardant layer, and a PVC sheath layer coaxially tightly wrapped outside the flame retardant layer.

[0006] The PVC sheath layer is calculated by weight and includes 100 parts of PVC, 5-15 parts of polyacrylate-based phthalate molecular imprinted microspheres, 20-40 parts of phthalate plasticizers, 2-4 parts of stabilizers, 1-2 parts of lubricants, 0.5-1 parts of antioxidants, and 5-10 parts of white carbon black.

[0007] The preparation method of polyacrylate-based phthalate molecular imprinted microspheres is as follows: after fully mixing acrylate monomers, crosslinking monomers, and phthalate template molecules in a solvent at a weight ratio of 1-4:5-15:1, an initiator is added thereto and dispersed sufficiently, the mixture is heated to 70-80°C under a protective atmosphere for reaction for 10-20 hours, the mixture is naturally cooled to room temperature, and then filtered to obtain a crude product, the obtained crude product is first fully washed with acetone, dried, ball-milled, and then fully washed with an acetic acid alcohol dispersion to remove the phthalate template molecules, and then fully washed with ethanol to remove the residual acetic acid, and then vacuum dried;

[0008] As a preferred embodiment: each conductor core is respectively formed by twisting a number of round copper wires; there are more than two core units, and the gaps between the core units inside the flame retardant layer are filled with filling ropes;

[0009] Preferably, the acrylate monomer is methyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, etc., the crosslinking monomer is ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, etc., the solvent is toluene, xylene, diphenyl ether or ethyl acetate, etc., the initiator is azobisisobutyronitrile, etc., the mass concentration of acetic acid in the alcohol dispersion of acetic acid is 10% to 15%, and the alcohol used as the solvent is ethanol or methanol;

[0010] Preferably, the phthalate plasticizer is dibutyl phthalate, diisobutyl phthalate, dioctyl phthalate, diisodecyl phthalate, diphenyl phthalate, etc.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment: the stabilizer is zinc stearate, lead stearate, calcium stearate, etc.;

[0012] As a preferred embodiment: the lubricant is polyethylene wax, hydroxy silicone oil, etc.;

[0013] Preferably, the antioxidant is antioxidant 1010, antioxidant 1076, etc.

[0014] As a preference: the preparation operation of the above PVC sheathed cable is:

[0015] The aluminum-plastic tape is evenly and tightly wrapped on the outer surface of the conductor core to form a shielding layer coaxially arranged with the conductor core; the insulation layer masterbatch is melted in an extruder and evenly extruded on the outer surface of the shielding layer, and after cooling, an insulation layer coaxially and tightly coated on the shielding layer is formed, thereby obtaining a core unit; all the core units (and the filling ropes used to fill the gaps) are matched together in parallel and then twisted, and then the twisted core units (and the filling ropes) are evenly and tightly wrapped with mica tape as a whole, thereby forming a flame retardant layer coaxially arranged with the whole; the PVC sheath layer masterbatch is melted in an extruder and evenly extruded on the flame retardant layer, thereby forming a PVC sheath layer coaxially and tightly coated with the flame retardant layer.

[0016] The preparation operation of the PVC jacket layer masterbatch is as follows: PVC, polyacrylate-based phthalate molecular imprinted microspheres, phthalate plasticizers, stabilizers, lubricants, antioxidants, and white carbon black are fully mixed together, and then added into a twin-screw extruder at 150-175° C. for extrusion and granulation;

[0017] In addition, the filling rope is fluffy and elastic in its natural state. Therefore, during the concentrated twisting and mica tape wrapping process, the filling rope is further squeezed by the core unit or the mica tape, and the gap can be basically filled.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: polyacrylate-based phthalate molecular imprinted microspheres are added to PVC, and the imprinted microspheres are concentrated with specific binding sites for phthalates, and because the imprinted microspheres themselves are formed by cross-linking based on a relatively high proportion of acrylic acid ester cross-linking monomers, the chemical structure is relatively stable, and after being added to the PVC matrix and extruded, the imprinted microspheres still retain the binding property for phthalate plasticizer molecules. These imprinted microspheres are distributed in the sheath matrix, and can form binding and restraint on the phthalate plasticizer molecules nearby (the applicant believes that the reason why the plasticizer molecules can gradually migrate out from the inside of the product indicates that the plasticizer molecules also have certain activity in the product, and it is precisely because of this activity of the plasticizer molecules that they can also contact and bind with the imprinted microspheres in the sheath product), thereby effectively reducing the migration of plasticizer molecules in the cable sheath to the external environment, and also reducing the adverse effects on the cable surrounding environment and organisms.

After being placed at room temperature for 48 hours, the sample in the beaker was carefully taken out and washed by shaking in another 80 ml of ethanol. Wash, shake and wash thoroughly, take out the sample, combine the washing ethanol with the previous soaking ethanol, filter through a filter membrane, and then use high performance liquid chromatography to measure the concentration of the plasticizer in the combined solution (wherein, the chromatographic column is a C18 column (particle size 5μm, size 4.6x250mm), column temperature 35℃, detection wavelength 225nm, mobile phase methanol, flow rate 1.0mL / min, injection volume ‌10μL).
