[0038] This invention provides a composite aramid insulating paper and its preparation method, addressing the problem that most existing methods are limited to introducing single aramid fibers into composite materials. While simple physical mixing or surface modification can improve the performance of composite materials to some extent, they cannot fundamentally solve the problems of poor interfacial bonding and poor dispersibility, thus reducing the reliability of power equipment operation.

Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of this invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0040] See Figures 1-3 As shown, the present invention provides a composite aramid insulating paper, which includes polyvinylpyrrolidone, aramid fibers and aminated carbon nanotubes, wherein the aminated carbon nanotubes are uniformly dispersed in the matrix of aramid fibers.

[0041] In this embodiment of the invention, the composite aramid insulating paper exhibits a nanocomposite structure at the microscopic level. Aminated carbon nanotubes are uniformly dispersed within the aramid fiber matrix, and the two are tightly bonded together. The carbon nanotubes act as tiny "reinforcing skeletons," enhancing the stability and strength of the overall structure at the nanoscale. Simultaneously, it possesses a fiber network structure. Through processes such as electrospinning, blending, high-speed shearing, and vacuum filtration, the composite fibers and aramid fibers intertwine and entangle, forming a complex yet ordered fiber network. This network structure not only facilitates the uniform transfer and dispersion of stress within the material, greatly improving its toughness and strength, but also provides multi-dimensional pathways for heat conduction, contributing to high thermal conductivity. Therefore, the composite aramid insulating paper exhibits a high degree of structural synergy and optimization.

[0042] All raw materials and reagents involved in the embodiments of this invention are commercially available.

[0043] To further illustrate the present invention, the following detailed description of a composite aramid insulating paper and its preparation method provided by the present invention is provided in conjunction with embodiments.

[0044] Example 1

[0045] Embodiment 1 of this invention relates to the preparation of a composite aramid insulating paper, wherein the composite aramid insulating paper is made by amination treatment of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). It is then compounded with aramid fiber (ANF). A method for preparing a composite aramid insulating paper includes:

[0046] Step 101: Starting with carbon nanotubes (CNTs), amino functional groups are grafted onto their surface through plasma treatment to obtain aminated carbon nanotubes. );

[0047] Further, step 101 includes the following sub-steps:

[0048] S11. React multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with a mixed solution of concentrated nitric acid and sulfuric acid to remove surface impurities and increase surface activity.

[0049] It should be noted that during the reaction with the mixed solution of concentrated nitric acid and sulfuric acid, the power was 100 W, the treatment time was 30 minutes, the gas flow rate was 20 sccm, and the pressure was controlled at 0.2 mbar.

[0050] S12. Mix the cleaned carbon nanotubes with ammonia water (25%). The mixture reacts at 60-80°C to form aminated carbon nanotubes.

[0051] It should be noted that the reaction at 60-80°C for 2 hours results in the amino group ( The functional groups react with the surface of carbon nanotubes to form aminated carbon nanotubes.

[0052] S13, after the reaction Ultrasonic dispersion was performed to obtain the treated product. .

[0053] It should be noted that after the reaction It needs to be dispersed by ultrasound to ensure uniform dispersion and avoid agglomeration.

[0054] It is worth mentioning that carbon nanotubes ( After amination treatment, carbon nanotubes are combined with aramid fibers (ANF) to form a composite structure with high toughness and high strength. Amination of carbon nanotubes not only improves the mechanical properties of the fibers, giving them higher tensile strength and wear resistance, but also effectively enhances the overall rigidity of the composite material due to their nanoscale size, thus improving tear resistance and compressive strength.

[0055] Step 102: Aramid fibers (ANF) are treated in a dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) system to obtain ANF gel;

[0056] It should be noted that step 102 specifically involves: cutting aramid fibers (such as Kevlar®) into 2 cm long segments, and placing the aramid fibers into DMSO at a ratio of 20 wt% aramid fibers to 80 wt% DMSO. Heating and stirring are used to help dissolve the aramid fibers, forming a gel state (the reaction temperature is set at 80°C, and the reaction time is 2 hours), ensuring that the aramid fibers are completely dissolved and uniformly dispersed. The final product is an aramid fiber gel (ANF gel).

[0057] It should be noted that the amount of aramid fiber (ANF) is typically 60%-70% of the total weight of the composite material, providing the material's main mechanical strength and electrical insulation. Aramid fibers are usually small segments or short fibers, 1-2 mm in length, and can be fully dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The solubility of aramid fibers in DMSO is approximately 10-20% (i.e., 10-20 grams of aramid fiber dissolved in 100 ml of DMSO). The aramid fibers are completely dissolved in DMSO through ultrasonication and stirring to form a homogeneous aramid gel.

[0058] It is worth mentioning that aramid fiber itself has excellent high temperature resistance and can maintain its physical properties in high temperature environments. The addition of CNT further improves the thermal conductivity of the composite material, ensuring that the material can effectively dissipate heat in environments with high heat loads and prevent damage caused by heat accumulation.

[0059] Step 103: Aminated carbon nanotubes ( The mixture was ultrasonically dispersed in polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) to obtain... Spinning solution;

[0060] It should be noted that the concentration of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) is 0.5 wt%, and the concentration of aminated carbon nanotubes is 0.5 wt%.

[0061] It should be noted that during the ultrasonic dispersion process, the ultrasonic frequency was set to 40 kHz and the dispersion time was 1 hour.

[0062] Step 104: Obtain by electrospinning Composite fibers;

[0063] It should be noted that the required electrospinning process... The concentration of the solution is usually 10%-15%. In specific operations, The injection volume of the solution is approximately 5-10 ml, while the electrospinning voltage is set to 15 kV. The distance between the nozzle and the collection plate is typically maintained at 10 cm, and the feed rate is 0.5 mL / h.

[0064] It should be noted that the feed rate during electrospinning is 0.5 mL / h.

[0065] It should be noted that during the electrospinning process, the solution is stretched into nanoscale fibers under the influence of a strong electric field and collected onto an aluminum foil. The diameter of the spun composite fibers is controlled between 100-500 nm, and the surface is smooth, uniformly distributed, and free from agglomeration, ensuring that they can effectively perform their functions in subsequent steps.

[0066] Step 105, Composite fibers were blended with ANF gel and subjected to high-speed shearing to obtain... Composite fiber / ANF aramid fiber;

[0067] It should be noted that in step 105, the... The composite fiber and aramid fiber gel (ANF gel) are mixed in a ratio of 1:3 by mass of composite fiber to gel.

[0068] It should be noted that during high-speed shearing, the shearing rate was set to 2000 rpm and the shearing time was 30 minutes to ensure that the composite fibers and gel were fully and uniformly mixed.

[0069] It is worth mentioning that step 105 enhances the interaction between the fibers and the gel, resulting in a uniform... / ANF composite fiber / ANF aramid fiber.

[0070] Step 106, / ANF composite fiber / ANF aramid fiber is vacuum filtered to obtain composite aramid insulating paper.

[0071] It should be noted that during the filtration process, the vacuum pressure is controlled at 0.1 MPa and maintained for 2 hours to ensure that the fibers are evenly distributed on the filter medium and form a stable fiber network.

[0072] It should be noted that after filtration, the resulting composite material is dried at a temperature of 60°C for 12 hours to ensure complete removal of the solvent and obtain a strong composite material.

[0073] It is worth mentioning that the combination of the high electrical insulation properties of aramid fibers and the excellent conductivity of carbon nanotubes gives composite aramid insulating paper both good insulation properties and the flexibility to adjust for applications requiring conductivity, achieving greater adaptability. At the same time, the chemical corrosion resistance of composite aramid insulating paper has also been significantly improved, enabling it to withstand the erosion of various chemical media and adapt to long-term use in complex environments.

[0074] It is worth mentioning that the composite aramid insulating paper has low hygroscopicity and is not easily affected by moisture, which further improves the stability of the composite aramid insulating paper in humid environments.

[0075] It should be noted that, as can be seen from the preparation steps 101-106, the aramid fibers and aminated carbon nanotubes in the composite aramid insulating paper of Example 1 are... The mass ratio of ( ) is 10:1.

[0078] Step 201, Aminated carbon nanotubes ( Preparation of the nanotubes: First, the selected multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were subjected to plasma treatment to remove surface impurities and improve their surface activity. Specifically, the treatment was carried out in an oxygen plasma environment at a power of 100 W for 30 minutes, a gas flow rate of 20 sccm, and a pressure controlled at 0.2 mbar. After treatment, the carbon nanotubes were immersed in concentrated ammonia water (25%). In this process, the reaction time is 2 hours. This step successfully grafts amino functional groups onto the surface of carbon nanotubes, resulting in amination.

[0079] Step 202, see reference Figure 2As shown, the preparation of aramid fiber (ANF) gel involves cutting aramid fibers (such as Kevlar®) into 2 cm long segments and treating them in a dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solution. The aramid fibers are placed in DMSO at a ratio of 20 wt% aramid fibers to 80 wt% DMSO. Heating and stirring are used to help dissolve the aramid fibers, forming a gel. The reaction temperature is set at 80°C, and the reaction time is 2 hours to ensure complete dissolution and uniform dispersion of the aramid fibers. The final product is an aramid fiber gel (ANF gel). The key to this step is ensuring the uniformity and stability of the gel by properly controlling the dissolution temperature and time.

[0080] Step 203 Preparation of spinning solution: First, it is necessary to prepare aminated carbon nanotubes (… Ultrasonic dispersion was performed in a polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) solution. We used 0.5 wt% PVP solution and 0.5 wt% CNT-NH2 to ensure... Good dispersibility. In the ultrasonic cleaner, the ultrasonic frequency is set to 40 kHz, and the dispersibility time is 1 hour to ensure... It is uniformly distributed in the PVP solution. After dispersion, a homogeneous product is obtained. The spinning solution lays the foundation for the subsequent electrospinning steps.

[0081] Step 204 Electrospinning of composite fibers: The fibers prepared in step 203 are electrospinned. The spinning solution was spun using electrospinning. The voltage during electrospinning was set to 15 kV, the spinning distance to 10 cm, and the feed rate to 0.5 mL / h. The collecting plate temperature was maintained at 25°C to ensure fiber formation under favorable environmental conditions. During electrospinning, the solution was stretched into nanoscale fibers by a strong electric field and collected on an aluminum foil. The diameter of the spun composite fibers was controlled between 100-500 nm, with a smooth surface, uniform distribution, and no agglomeration, ensuring effective performance in subsequent steps.

[0082] Step 205 Preparation of / ANF composite fiber / ANF aramid fiber: ... The composite fibers were mixed with aramid fiber gel (ANF gel) at a mass ratio of 1:3. The mixture was then placed in a high-speed shear mill at a shear rate of 2000 rpm for 30 minutes to ensure thorough and uniform mixing of the composite fibers and gel. This process enhanced the interaction between the fibers and gel, resulting in a homogeneous mixture. The composite fiber / ANF aramid fiber gel will be used as the next step in vacuum filtration.

[0083] Step 206, see reference Figure 3 As shown, the preparation of composite aramid insulating paper: The obtained... The ANF composite fiber / ANF aramid fiber was vacuum filtered to remove excess solvent. During filtration, the vacuum pressure was controlled at 0.1 MPa and maintained for 2 hours to ensure that the fibers were evenly distributed on the filter medium, forming a stable fiber network. After filtration, the resulting composite material was dried at 60°C for 12 hours to ensure complete solvent removal and obtain a robust composite material.

[0084] It should be noted that aramid fibers and aminated carbon nanotubes ( The mass ratio of ) is 7:3.

[0085] It is worth mentioning that the dried composite aramid insulating paper has excellent high toughness, high strength and high thermal conductivity, making it suitable for high-performance thermal insulation and insulation applications.
