Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of composite materials, and specifically, to a metal-resin bonded integrated composite material. Background Art

[0002] Composite materials are materials composed of two or more materials with different properties through physical or chemical methods to form materials with new properties. In the fields of aerospace, automotive industry, and robot manufacturing, the application of composite materials is of great significance. On the one hand, composite materials have the advantages of high strength, high stiffness, and low density, which can effectively reduce their own weight, achieve lightweight, and improve motion efficiency and flexibility; on the other hand, composite materials have good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance, etc., and can adapt to various harsh working environments.

[0003] High-strength metals such as titanium, aluminum, and magnesium are widely used due to their unique performance advantages. For example, aluminum alloys have the characteristics of low density, high strength, specific strength close to high-alloy steels, and specific stiffness exceeding that of steel; titanium alloys have the advantages of high strength and corrosion resistance. Carbon fiber reinforced resin composite materials, abbreviated as CFRP, have the advantages of high specific strength and good chemical stability, but due to the lack of interlayer fiber reinforcement in the layered CFRP structure, their impact resistance is poor. In actual use, they often need to be combined with metals to form composite materials. For example, the metal-resin bonded integrated composite material formed by titanium alloy and CFRP has obvious advantages in aerospace applications such as rocket fuel tanks, leading edges of wings, and engine pods.

[0004] The biggest characteristic of the metal-resin bonded integrated composite material in structure is its multi-layer interface, and the performance of the bonding interface directly affects the final performance of the composite material. If the bonding interface is prone to interface delamination or even cracking during use, it will lead to a decrease in stiffness and strength. Taking the metal-resin bonded integrated composite material formed by titanium alloy and CFRP as an example, due to the strong chemical activity of titanium, it is extremely easy to react with elements such as oxygen and nitrogen at room temperature, and a dense and highly inert passivation film is formed on its surface. This passivation film greatly affects the bonding strength between the titanium alloy and the resin. Currently, before preparing the metal-resin bonded integrated composite material, the metal surface needs to be treated to achieve an ideal bonding state by improving the metal surface morphology.

[0005] Mechanical methods such as sandblasting and grinding with a grinding wheel can increase the surface roughness of the metal and the contact area with the resin, which is beneficial to forming a mechanical connection during bonding and improving the bonding strength. However, during mechanical treatment, as the surface roughness of the metal increases, the defects of surface unevenness will become the starting point of metal fatigue cracking, which will greatly reduce the fatigue strength of the metal. Although chemical treatment methods such as the mixed acid method, the oxalic acid method, and the phosphate chloride method can also increase the surface roughness of the metal through chemical etching and improve the bonding strength, with the dissolution of the metal and the increase of the surface roughness, the fatigue strength of the metal will be reduced, and there are also environmental protection problems such as the treatment of toxic chemicals and wastewater treatment. In addition, although methods such as alkaline anodic oxidation and chromic acid anodic oxidation can improve the bonding strength without significantly increasing the surface roughness, the disadvantages of poor stability and poor resistance to heat and humidity restrict their practical use.

[0006] Therefore, for the integrated composite material of metal and resin, how to improve the bonding strength without affecting the metal fatigue strength is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The present invention provides an integrated composite material of metal and resin, which solves the problem that the bonding strength of the integrated composite material of metal and resin in the related art and the fatigue strength of the metal cannot be taken into account at the same time.

[0008] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0009] The present invention provides an integrated composite material of metal and resin, and an oxide film is provided on the metal surface bonded to the resin. The oxide film is obtained by plasma electrolytic oxidation of the metal, and the water contact angle of the oxide film is ≤30°.

[0010] As a further technical solution, the surface roughness Ra of the oxide film is ≤1μm.

[0011] As a further technical solution, the thickness of the oxide film is 0.3 - 5μm.

[0012] As a further technical solution, the shear bonding strength of the metal and the resin is ≥36MPa.

[0013] As a further technical solution, during the plasma electrolytic oxidation, the voltage is 30 - 450V and the temperature is 10 - 60°C.

[0014] As a further technical solution, during the plasma electrolytic oxidation, the electrolyte includes the following components: alkali metal hydroxide, layered compound, and amino silane coupling agent.

[0015] As a further technical solution, the concentration of the alkali metal hydroxide is 10 to 50 g / L, the concentration of the layered compound is 8 to 10 g / L, and the concentration of the aminosilane coupling agent is 5 to 8 g / L.

[0016] As a further technical solution, the resin is a carbon fiber reinforced resin composite material, and the carbon fiber reinforced resin composite material is a carbon fiber reinforced thermosetting resin composite material or a carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin composite material.

[0017] As a further technical solution, in the carbon fiber reinforced thermosetting resin composite material, the thermosetting resin includes one of phenolic resin, epoxy resin, unsaturated polyester, and thermosetting polyimide;

[0018] In the carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin composite material, the thermoplastic resin includes one of polyamide, polyphenylene sulfide, thermoplastic polyimide, and polyether ether ketone.

[0019] As a further technical solution, the surface of the carbon fiber reinforced resin composite material is processed by atmospheric plasma.

[0020] The working principle and beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0021] In the present invention, an oxide film obtained by plasma electrolytic oxidation is provided on the metal surface bonded to the resin. By ensuring that the water contact angle of the oxide film is ≤30°, it is beneficial for the resin to better wet and adhere, enabling the metal and the resin to be tightly combined to form a firm interfacial connection, which can significantly improve the bonding strength between the metal and the resin. In addition, different from conventional mechanical treatment methods and chemical treatment methods, the use of plasma electrolytic oxidation treatment can not only improve the bonding strength between the metal and the resin, but also avoid the phenomenon of fatigue strength reduction of the metal caused by the roughening of the metal surface to form fatigue cracking initiation points due to conventional treatment methods.

[0025] Next, a metal-resin integrated composite material according to an embodiment of the present invention will be introduced in detail.

[0026] According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a metal-resin integrated composite material, and an oxide film is provided on the metal surface joined to the resin. The oxide film is obtained by subjecting the metal to plasma electrolytic oxidation treatment, and the water contact angle of the oxide film is ≤30°. For example, it can be 0.7°, 2°, 4°, 6.5°, 7.8°, 11.2°, 16.6°, 19.8°, 25°, 30°.

[0027] In the present invention, plasma electrolytic oxidation has the characteristic of high energy density. Through the combined action of plasma chemistry, electrochemistry and thermochemistry, it can endow the metal surface with hydrophilic properties, which helps to improve the interfacial bonding between the metal and the resin and does not generate fatigue cracking points, solving the problem that the bonding strength of the metal-resin integrated composite material and the fatigue strength of the metal cannot be taken into account at the same time.

[0028] In the present invention, the water contact angle of the metal surface can be measured by a commercially available contact angle measuring instrument. For example, the water contact angle of the metal surface can be the value measured by a contact angle measuring instrument (model JC200A).

[0029] In an embodiment of the present invention, the surface roughness Ra of the oxide film is ≤1μm. For example, it can be 0.2μm, 0.4μm, 0.57μm, 0.68μm, 0.73μm, 0.81μm, 1μm.

[0030] In the present invention, when the surface roughness Ra of the metal surface is ≤ 1 μm, on the one hand, it can increase the effective contact area between the metal and the resin, enhance the mechanical biting ability at the joint of the metal and the resin, and improve the bonding strength between the metal and the resin; on the other hand, it can reduce the fatigue cracking points caused by large surface roughness and prevent the decline of the metal fatigue strength.

[0031] In the present invention, the surface roughness Ra of the metal surface can be measured by a commercially available surface roughness tester using the contact measurement method. For example, the surface roughness Ra of the metal surface can be the value measured by moving a TS2200 type surface roughness tester along any direction on the metal surface using the contact measurement method.

[0032] In one embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the oxide film is 0.3 - 5 μm. For example, it can be 0.3 μm, 0.7 μm, 1.2 μm, 1.7 μm, 2.6 μm, 3.4 μm, 4.5 μm, 5 μm.

[0033] In the present invention, the thickness of the oxide film can be the thickness measured by observing the cross-section of the film with a scanning electron microscope (SEM), or can be the thickness measured using a known thickness gauge.

[0034] In one embodiment of the present invention, the oxide film has sub-micron level irregularities.

[0035] In the present invention, during the plasma electrolytic oxidation process, the plasma discharge can reach a high temperature state of thousands of degrees Celsius in an instant, forming an oxide film with sub-micron level irregularities on the metal surface. The unique microstructure provides good bonding points for the resin, and these sub-micron level irregularities are different from the surface roughening by sandblasting or pickling and will not become the starting point of metal fatigue cracking. While improving the bonding strength between the metal and the resin, it does not affect the fatigue strength of the metal.

[0036] In one embodiment of the present invention, the maximum diameter length of the sub-micron level irregularities is 0.1 - 1 μm. For example, it can be 0.1 μm, 0.2 μm, 0.4 μm, 0.6 μm, 0.8 μm, 1 μm.

[0037] In the present invention, the maximum diameter length of the irregularities can be observed and measured by a scanning electron microscope (SEM).

[0038] In one embodiment of the present invention, the shear bonding strength between the metal and the resin is ≥ 36 MPa. For example, 36 MPa, 36.7 MPa, 37.2 MPa, 39.8 MPa, 40.1 MPa, 40.5 MPa, 41.2 MPa, 41.8 MPa.

[0039] In the present invention, the shear bond strength between the metal and the resin can be tested by a universal testing machine. For example, it can be the value measured by using a commercially available universal testing machine with reference to ASTM D3165-07(2014).

[0040] In one embodiment of the present invention, during plasma electrolytic oxidation, the voltage is 30~450V and the temperature is 10~60°C. For example, the voltage can be 30V, 100V, 200V, 300V, 400V, 450V; the temperature can be 10°C, 20°C, 30°C, 40°C, 50°C, 60°C.

[0041] In the present invention, when the voltage is 30~450V, the stability of plasma electrolytic oxidation can be improved; when the temperature is 10~60°C, it can not only ensure a good film-forming rate, but also prevent burns caused by overly intense plasma electrolytic oxidation.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, during plasma electrolytic oxidation, the electrolyte includes the following components: alkali metal hydroxide, layered compound, and amino silane coupling agent.

[0045] In the present invention, by optimizing the composition of the electrolyte, the metal surface can have hydroxyl groups and amino silanes, improving the hydrophilicity of the metal surface. The amino silane can act as a bridge between the metal and resin interfaces or directly participate in the subsequent resin cross-linking reaction, which is beneficial to further improving the bond strength between the metal and the resin. In addition, the layered compound and amino silane coupling agent in the electrolyte can act. The amino silane molecules enter the interlayers of the layered compound, inducing and promoting the interlayer peeling of the layered compound through hydrolysis reaction to form a large number of nano-sheet structures with a large specific surface area, increasing the effective contact area between the metal and the resin, and further improving the bond strength between the metal and the resin without affecting the metal fatigue strength.

[0046] In the present invention, the alkali metal hydroxide can be any alkali metal hydroxide, preferably one or two of sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide. For example, it can be sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, or a combination of sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide.

[0047] In the present invention, the layered compound is preferably a cationic layered compound.

The layered phosphate can be zirconium phosphate or titanium phosphate; the layered silicate can be mica, talcum powder, or montmorillonite; the layered titanate can be sodium titanate, potassium titanate, or lithium titanate. For example, it can be disodium titanate, trinodium titanate, potassium tetratitanate, or lithium titanate.

[0052] In one embodiment of the present invention, the resin is a carbon fiber reinforced resin composite material, and the carbon fiber reinforced resin composite material is a carbon fiber reinforced thermosetting resin composite material or a carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin composite material.

[0055] In an embodiment of the present invention, the surface of the carbon fiber reinforced resin composite material is processed by atmospheric plasma.

[0056] In the present invention, the atmospheric plasma surface treatment technology is used to process the carbon fiber reinforced resin composite material, which can generate active ions, react chemically with the atoms on the surface of the carbon fiber reinforced resin composite material, improve its performance, enhance the wettability, adhesiveness, and hydrophilicity of the surface of the carbon fiber reinforced resin composite material, and can avoid the surface layer and subsurface layer damage caused by contact stress, further improving the bonding strength between the metal and the resin. In addition, this treatment method does not require vacuum equipment, has a low processing cost, and is suitable for industrial applications.

[0125]

[0126] Comparing Example 1 with Comparative Examples 1 to 3, it can be seen that after the surface of the metal in the metal-resin bonded integrated composite material is treated by plasma electrolytic oxidation, it has hydrophilicity. This not only improves the bonding strength between the metal and the resin, but also avoids the phenomenon of fatigue strength reduction of the metal caused by the roughening of the metal surface formed by the conventional treatment method to form fatigue cracking initiation points.

[0127] Comparing Examples 2 to 3 with Examples 4 to 6 shows that when the components of the electrolyte include an amino silane coupling agent, the bonding strength between the metal and the resin can be further improved without affecting the fatigue strength of the metal.

[0128] Comparing Example 2 with Examples 7 to 8 shows that the layered compound in the electrolyte can produce a synergistic effect with the amino silane coupling agent, and the bonding strength between the metal and the resin can be further improved without affecting the fatigue strength of the metal.

[0129] Comparing Example 2 with Example 9 shows that using the atmospheric plasma surface treatment technology to process the carbon fiber reinforced resin composite material can further improve the bonding strength between the metal and the resin without affecting the fatigue strength of the metal.

[0130] Example 10 shows that when the metal is changed from TC4 titanium alloy to AA2024 aluminum alloy, the bonding strength between the metal and the resin can also be improved without affecting the fatigue strength of the metal.
