Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sizing agents, and in particular to a sizing agent raw material composition and a sizing agent and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Carbon fiber reinforced composite materials are increasingly used in aerospace, weapons and equipment, sports facilities, automobiles, energy and other industrial fields because of their advantages of light weight, high strength, strong impact resistance, fatigue resistance and corrosion resistance. In recent years, the production capacity of domestic carbon fiber has steadily increased, and high-performance carbon fiber composite materials have gradually replaced metal parts. However, during the production and processing of carbon fiber, it is easy to produce filaments and single filaments under the action of friction, thus reducing the strength of carbon fiber, and the interface properties between carbon fiber and matrix are also crucial to the performance of composite materials.

[0003] Using sizing agents to treat the surface of carbon fibers and form an organic film on the surface of carbon fibers can not only reduce wear and tear during processing and avoid the formation of hair, but also protect the clean and active surface after surface treatment and prevent the adsorption of dust and moisture in the air. Emulsion sizing agents are currently the most widely used sizing agents because they are safe and environmentally friendly, but the stability of emulsion sizing agents is not enough. The film formed by the sizing agent on the surface of carbon fibers is easily affected by the ambient temperature and humidity, affecting the bonding between carbon fibers and resins. The application of sizing agents in some high-performance carbon fiber fields is limited. The development of high-performance sizing agents has become an important link in the carbon fiber industry chain.

[0004] Graphene nanoribbons are one-dimensional nanoribbon-shaped graphene materials that combine the advantages of carbon nanotubes and graphene, with good dispersion, excellent conductivity, large specific surface area and excellent strength. Introducing graphene nanoribbons to the surface of carbon fiber through sizing agents can improve the surface properties of carbon fiber, thereby further enhancing the interface properties of composite materials.

[0005] Therefore, seeking a simple method for preparing a composite emulsion sizing agent modified with graphene nanoribbons will be beneficial to its in-depth research and promotion and application. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the problems of poor bonding between carbon fiber and resin, poor stability of sizing agent and the like in the prior art, and to provide a sizing agent raw material composition and a preparation method of the sizing agent.

The preparation method of the sizing agent of the present invention has simple process, mild conditions, low cost and is suitable for industrial production.

[0007] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the first aspect of the present invention provides a sizing agent raw material composition, which comprises a graphene nanoribbon solution, a nonionic surfactant, an alkali source, and an epoxy resin emulsion.

[0008] The second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing a sizing agent, which is prepared using the formula of the raw material composition of the present invention, and the method comprises: (1) adding a nonionic surfactant and an alkali source to a graphene nanoribbon solution and mixing them to obtain a solution I; (2) adding the solution I to an epoxy resin emulsion and mixing them.

[0009] The third aspect of the present invention provides a sizing agent prepared by the preparation method of the present invention, wherein the particle size of the sizing agent is 100-300 nm, and the sizing agent does not break the emulsion or separate layers when left to stand for more than 30 days, and does not break the emulsion or separate layers when centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 1 minute.

[0010] Through the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] The present invention proposes for the first time a sizing agent raw material composition, which comprises a graphene nanoribbon solution, a nonionic surfactant, an alkali source, and an epoxy resin emulsion.
