[0022] The LCP resin of the present application has a modification agent with a flame-retardant function grafted to the molecular chain of the LCP resin, so as to avoid the problem of migration and precipitation of the flame-retardant modifier in the traditional physical blending modification method, which affects the mechanical properties and flame-retardant properties of the resin. The four benzene rings on the side chain are connected to the molecular chain through P atoms, so that the four benzene rings on the side chain are arranged non-coplanarly with the benzene rings on the molecular chain, which optimizes the interaction force between the macromolecular chains, and is beneficial to the mechanical properties, temperature resistance, and flame-retardant properties of the product.

[0023] The present application also provides a method for synthesizing the LCP resin by using a micro-channel continuous flow reaction process, which includes the following steps: adding an LCP resin prepolymer into a continuous polycondensation reactor, adding a flame-retardant modifier for polycondensation reaction, so as to obtain the LCP resin.

[0086] Comparative Example 1

[0087] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the molar mass ratio of the benzene ring-containing monomer, the naphthalene ring-containing monomer and the functional monomer used in the preparation of the LCP resin prepolymer is 1.5:1.9:0.

[0088] Comparative Example 2

[0089] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide is not added in the preparation of the LCP resin.

[0090] Comparative Example 3

[0091] Put 138.12 g (1 mol) of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, 263.5 g (1.4 mol) of 2-hydroxy-6-naphthoic acid, 214.22 g (1 mol) of 4,4'-dihydroxybenzophenone, and 0.62 g of sulfurous chloride into a continuous polycondensation reactor, deoxygenate by nitrogen, and heat to 65℃. After 30 min of reaction, the reaction is completed, and the system viscosity does not increase significantly, indicating that sufficient prepolymer is not generated during the reaction, and the monomers are not fully reacted.

[0092] Since the pre-polymerization effect of this comparative example is poor, subsequent spinning treatment cannot be carried out, and therefore, subsequent experimental tests are not carried out.

[0093] Experimental Example

[0094] The LCP fibers prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-3 are tested for mechanical properties, thermal stability and flame retardant properties, wherein the fiber breaking strength is tested according to the standard GB / T 19975-2005 "High-strength fiber filament tensile property test method". The thermal decomposition temperature of the fiber is tested under nitrogen according to the thermal gravimetric analysis test method, wherein the heating rate is 20℃ / min, and the temperature range is 20-800℃. The limiting oxygen index (LOI) is determined according to the standard GB / T 5455-2014 "Textile combustion property test oxygen index method", and the limiting oxygen index of the fiber after aging is tested by the long-term flame retardant property determination method (the fiber is placed in an oven at 150℃ for 1 month). The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0095] Table 1 Test results of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-3

[0096]

[0097] As can be seen from Table 1:

[0098] According to the test results of Examples 1-5, the breaking strength of the obtained LCP fiber is ≥20.6 cN / dtex, the thermal decomposition temperature is ≥503 ℃, the limiting oxygen index is ≥40.2 %, and the limiting oxygen index after aging for 1 month is ≥39.8 %; it is shown that the LCP fiber prepared by the synthetic method of the application is excellent in mechanical properties, thermal stability and flame retardant properties.

[0099] Among them, compared with Example 1, the comprehensive performance of the fiber obtained in Example 2 decreases slightly, which may be due to: the amount of flame retardant modifier in Example 2 is less, the amount of flame retardant groups and additional benzene ring structure introduced is less, so the mechanical properties, thermal stability and flame retardant properties of the fiber are decreased, but the comprehensive performance is still relatively good.

[0100] In Example 3, the amount of flame retardant modifier is more, and the limiting oxygen index is higher, but due to the excessive amount of flame retardant modifier, part of the flame retardant modifier is not chemically grafted on the LCP resin prepolymer but in a physical blending state, the limiting oxygen index after aging for 1 month decreases relatively more, but still maintains a high level, considering the comprehensive cost, it is not necessary to add too much flame retardant modifier.

[0101] According to the test results of Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, the comprehensive performance of the fiber obtained in Comparative Example 1 decreases obviously, which may be due to: 4,4'-dihydroxybenzophenone is lacking in Comparative Example 1, and the flame retardant modifier cannot be grafted onto the resin segment, therefore, the flame retardant modifier in Comparative Example 1 can only exist in the fiber by physical blending, although the limiting oxygen index before aging is still high, but with the occurrence of aging, the flame retardant modifier is easy to migrate and precipitate, thus the flame retardant performance after aging decreases obviously, and compared with the case that the flame retardant modifier is grafted on the polymer main chain in Example 1, the mixed way of doping the flame retardant modifier is not conducive to the improvement of the mechanical properties of the fiber.

[0102] According to the test results of Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, the breaking strength, thermal decomposition temperature and limiting oxygen index of the fiber obtained in Comparative Example 2 decrease obviously, which may be due to: no flame retardant modifier is added, and there is no flame retardant group in the system, so the flame retardant performance of the fiber is deteriorated; at the same time, due to the absence of the flame retardant modifier, the additional rigid benzene ring cannot be introduced into the resin, and the interaction force between the macromolecular chains cannot be optimized, thus the mechanical properties of the fiber are decreased.

[0103] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and characteristics of the present application, and the purpose is to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of the present application and implement it, and cannot limit the protection scope of the present application, and any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit and essence of the present application shall be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
