Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fiber preparation, and in particular to a hollow polyimide fiber and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Polyimide fiber is limited by cost, color, processing and other factors, and its development in civilian applications is relatively slow. In view of this situation, the development of low-cost, easy-to-process, easy-to-dye, comfortable-to-touch, and heat-insulating polyimide is of great significance to the civilian market.
[0003] Conventional hollow fiber production methods can be classified into "core replacement method" and "special-shaped spinneret method". The core replacement method has complicated operation steps and low efficiency. The special-shaped spinneret method has low hollowness and poor spinning operation performance. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a hollow polyimide fiber and a preparation method thereof in view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art.
[0005] The invention discloses a method for preparing hollow polyimide fibers. The hollow polyimide fibers are prepared by dry spinning a mixed spinning solution consisting of thermoplastic polyimide, polyamic acid and a solvent.
[0006] Furthermore, the temperature of the dry spinning tunnel is higher than the melting point of the thermoplastic polyimide and the boiling point of the solvent, and the absolute value of the difference between the boiling point of the solvent and the melting point of the thermoplastic polyimide does not exceed 20 degrees Celsius.
[0007] Furthermore, the solvent is selected from a mixture of one or more of N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, and N-methylpyrrolidone.
[0008] Furthermore, the synthesis method of the thermoplastic polyimide is a melt polymerization method or a solution polymerization chemical cyclization method.
[0009] Further, the raw material for synthesizing thermoplastic polyimide, the diamine is selected from one or more of p-phenylenediamine, 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether, 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane, and the dianhydride is selected from one or more of pyromellitic dianhydride, biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride, 3,3',4,4'-diphenyl ether tetracarboxylic dianhydride;
[0010] The raw materials for synthesizing polyamic acid are: the diamine is selected from one or more of p-phenylenediamine, 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether, and 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane; and the dianhydride is selected from one or more of pyromellitic dianhydride and biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride.
[0011] Further, the specific steps include:
[0012] S1: Synthesize thermoplastic polyimide by one-step process to make powder or small crystalline particles;
[0013] S2: dissolving thermoplastic polyimide powder or granules into a thermoplastic polyimide solution using a solvent;
[0014] S3: synthesizing a polyamic acid solution by solution polymerization;
[0015] S4: adding the thermoplastic polyimide solution to the polyamic acid solution, mixing them evenly, and degassing to obtain a mixed spinning solution;
[0016] S5: by controlling the spinning process parameters of the spinneret temperature, the tunnel temperature and the air volume, the mixed spinning solution is subjected to dry spinning to obtain the polyimide primary yarn with a hollow structure;
[0017] S6: The spun silk is cyclized and drawn at high temperature to obtain hollow polyimide fibers.
[0018] Furthermore, in the above step S2, the concentration of the thermoplastic polyimide solution is 20%-50%.
[0019] Furthermore, in the above step S3, the concentration of the polyamic acid solution is 15%-30%.
[0020] Furthermore, in the above step S5, the temperature of the spinning tunnel is between 150°C and 250°C; and the temperature of the spinneret is between 0°C and 50°C.
[0021] A hollow polyimide fiber prepared by the above preparation method.
[0022] In the dry spinning process of the present invention, the mixed spinning solution is heated by hot air in the tunnel after passing through the spinneret. When the mixed spinning solution reaches or approaches the boiling point of the solvent, it also reaches or approaches the melting point of the thermoplastic polyimide. During the volatilization of the solvent, the thermoplastic polyimide in the mixed spinning solution gradually turns into a thermoplastic polyimide melt. As the solvent in the polyamic acid decreases and gradually forms into fibers, a small amount of vaporized and expanded solvent in the center of the fiber is wrapped by the thermoplastic polyimide melt. Under the involvement of the fiber winding machine, a hollow tube is formed inside the polyimide fiber.
[0023] The present invention can obtain thermoplastic polyimide with different melting points by controlling the ratio of thermoplastic polyimide raw materials, and can control the hollowness of polyimide fiber by controlling the ratio of thermoplastic polyimide, polyamic acid and solvent.
[0024] The hollow polyimide fiber produced in this way has the characteristics of high temperature resistance and plasticity, which is convenient for subsequent processing into a variety of products. The hollow polyimide fiber produced in this way has excellent properties such as heat resistance, warmth retention, antibacterial, radiation resistance, and easy dyeing.
