Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fiber materials, and more particularly to a carbon fiber spinning solution and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] The raw materials used for spinning carbon fiber, i.e., the "precursors," mainly include polyacrylonitrile (PAN), viscose fiber, and pitch. Compared to viscose fiber and pitch, PAN-based carbon fiber has become the mainstream in carbon fiber production due to its superior finished product quality and mechanical properties, as well as its simpler processing. The preparation of polyacrylonitrile spinning solutions with high molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution has always been a research focus, as it improves fiber mechanical properties, reduces fiber breakage in continuous production, and increases the production yield.

[0003] To prepare high molecular weight PAN, scholars at home and abroad have developed a series of polymerization methods. Based on whether the PAN polymer is soluble in solvent, the polymerization methods are divided into two categories: homogeneous polymerization (homogeneous solution polymerization) and heterogeneous polymerization (aqueous precipitation polymerization, mixed solvent precipitation polymerization, aqueous suspension polymerization, etc.). At present, these heterogeneous polymerization methods are difficult to apply in the process because the process flow of these methods is complex and the added reagents such as emulsifiers, dispersants, organometallic reagents, and ionic liquids are difficult to remove, which has an adverse effect on the quality of carbon fibers.

[0004] Currently, the molecular weight of PAN produced by homogeneous solution polymerization, which is the main industrial method, is generally low. Some researchers have attempted to increase the molecular weight of PAN obtained by homogeneous solution polymerization by increasing monomer concentration, decreasing initiator concentration, and lowering reaction temperature. However, these methods have the following problems: excessively high monomer concentration leads to high system viscosity and severe gelation, which is detrimental to subsequent spinning; excessively low initiator concentration leads to a slow reaction rate, which is not conducive to industrial production; lowering the temperature also reduces the reaction rate, and different types of initiators have different optimal decomposition temperatures, so the reaction temperature should not be too low. Therefore, the polyacrylonitrile spinning solutions produced industrially still suffer from problems such as difficulty in increasing molecular weight, wide molecular weight distribution, and unstable viscosity and molecular weight between different batches, ultimately affecting the mechanical properties of carbon fibers. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the above analysis, the present invention aims to provide a carbon fiber spinning solution and its preparation method, so as to solve at least one of the problems existing in the prior art, such as difficulty in increasing molecular weight, wide molecular weight distribution, and unstable viscosity and molecular weight of different batches.

[0006] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] This invention provides a method for preparing carbon fiber spinning solution, comprising:

[0008] Materials containing acrylonitrile, comonomers and solvents are added to the polymerization apparatus;

[0009] Based on the viscosity changes of the material, the timing for adding the remaining initiator after the polymerization starts and the timing for terminating the reaction are determined, and the target molecular weight of the acrylonitrile-based polymerization solution is controlled by the material temperature and the proportion of the remaining initiator in the total initiator.

[0010] The acrylonitrile-based polymerization solution that meets the target molecular weight is subjected to a single-molecule removal treatment;

[0011] The acrylonitrile-based polymer solution after the de-monopolymerization process is subjected to ammoniation treatment.

[0012] Furthermore, determining the timing for adding the remaining initiator and terminating the reaction based on the viscosity change of the material includes:

[0013] Heat to the polymerization temperature and add some initiator;

[0014] Real-time monitoring of material viscosity:

[0015] When the material viscosity reaches the first viscosity threshold, the remaining initiator is added. When the material viscosity reaches the second viscosity threshold, the reaction is terminated to obtain an acrylonitrile-based polymer liquid with the target molecular weight. The first viscosity threshold is less than the second viscosity threshold.

[0016] Furthermore, the first viscosity threshold is 200P-400P; and / or, the second viscosity threshold is 600P-1000P.

[0017] Furthermore, the polymerization temperature is 50-60℃, and when the material viscosity reaches the first viscosity threshold, the material temperature is raised to the target temperature of 60-70℃.

[0018] Furthermore, the remaining initiator accounts for 20-40% of the total initiator.

[0019] Furthermore, in the single-solution process, the polymer liquid undergoes gas-liquid exchange with the countercurrent solvent vapor through multiple layers of perforated partitions. At each layer of perforated partitions, the polymer liquid is divided into two parts: one part of the polymer liquid is spread flat on the perforated partition to form a thin liquid layer and flows downward through the holes in the perforated partition, and the other part of the polymer liquid flows downward from the suspended end on the side of the perforated partition.

[0020] Furthermore, a portion of the polymer liquid flows through the holes in the perforated partition to the next layer of perforated partition or polymer liquid collection area, and the positions of the holes on the adjacent layers of perforated partition are different. The other portion of the polymer liquid flows from the suspended end on the side of the perforated partition to the next layer of perforated partition or polymer liquid collection area.

[0021] Furthermore, in the ammoniation treatment, based on the flow rate Q3 of the polymerization liquid and the following relationship: M = Q3 × n, the mass M of ammonia gas required to be introduced per 1 kg of polymerization liquid is determined; where M is in mg and Q3 is in m³. 3 / h, where n ranges from 1.25 to 3.0.

[0022] Furthermore, in the ammoniation process, an inclined blade agitator is used to stir the polymerization liquid. The inclined blade agitator includes multiple inclined blades with an inclination angle of 40-50°. The inclined blades are rectangular and have a length of L that satisfies πL. 2 = (50-70%)S4, where S4 is the cross-sectional area of ​​the storage tank in the ammoniation unit.

[0023] The present invention provides a carbon fiber spinning solution, which is prepared by the above-described preparation method.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention can achieve at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0025] (1) This invention adds the initiator in batches during the polymerization reaction. Based on the changes in material viscosity, it determines the appropriate time to add the remaining initiator after the polymerization starts. By synergistically controlling the material temperature and the proportion of the remaining initiator in the total initiator, the molecular weight of the polymer is effectively regulated to achieve the target level. This invention uses viscosity monitoring to accurately determine the optimal time to add the remaining initiator after the polymerization starts. Compared with traditional indicators such as temperature and reaction time, changes in material viscosity can more accurately reflect the degree of reaction. While traditional indicators such as conversion rate can be used as one of the evaluation indicators of the degree of reaction, determining the conversion rate is too cumbersome and time-consuming. Each conversion rate requires sampling the material in the reaction process and drying it for several hours to obtain a solid before calculating the conversion rate, which is difficult to apply to industrial production. Compared with traditional indicators such as conversion rate, the viscosity index of this invention is more operable. In practical applications, it is possible to conveniently grasp the optimal time to add the initiator, thereby significantly improving the stability of the viscosity and molecular weight of different batches of polymerization liquid, thus laying a solid foundation for the subsequent preparation of high-performance carbon fibers.

[0026] (2) In some preferred embodiments, based on the advantages of determining the timing of batch initiator addition according to viscosity changes, the present invention can effectively reduce the number of end groups of polymer reaction molecular chains, increase molecular chain length, reduce the number of small molecules, obtain high molecular weight polymer stock solution, and reduce molecular weight distribution width by controlling the viscosity threshold of the added residual initiator, the viscosity threshold of termination, the polymerization temperature, the heating to the target temperature, and the proportion of the residual initiator in the total amount of initiator.

[0027] (3) In some preferred embodiments, the present invention obtains an acrylonitrile-based polymer solution with a weight-average molecular weight of 200,000-250,000 and a polydispersity index (PDI) of 2.0-3.0 by synergistically controlling the viscosity threshold of the added residual initiator, the viscosity threshold of termination, the polymerization temperature, the heating to the target temperature, and the proportion of the residual initiator in the total amount of initiator.

[0028] (4) In some preferred embodiments, during the demonolysis process, by optimizing the flow path of the polymer liquid, it is possible to ensure that the polymer liquid spreads out to form a large-area thin liquid layer, providing sufficient contact area and contact time with the solvent vapor, thereby achieving a good demonolysis effect. Moreover, when dealing with high molecular weight, high-viscosity polymer liquids that are difficult to demonolyze, this invention can also ensure that the polymer liquid flows smoothly to the next layer through the channels reserved at the suspended ends of each partition, thus avoiding problems that are prone to occur in traditional demonolysis processes, such as skinning, coking, or gel formation in the polymer liquid. By further optimizing the flow path of the polymer liquid, the upper layer of polymer liquid flows to the lower partition and continues to spread out, allowing the polymer liquid and solvent vapor to have more opportunities for gas-liquid exchange, thereby improving the demonolysis effect. After demonolysis treatment using the preparation method provided in the embodiments of this invention, the residual monomon content in the polymer liquid is <100ppm, preferably <50ppm, more preferably <30ppm.

[0029] (5) In some preferred embodiments, during the ammoniation process, the appropriate range of ammonia gas flow rate is set according to the flow rate of the polymerization liquid and in combination with the quantitative relationship, so as to accurately control the ammonia gas flow rate, thereby ensuring the ammoniation effect, improving the uniformity of ammoniation, enhancing the hydrophilicity of polyacrylonitrile, stabilizing the degree of ammoniation, extending the service life of the spinning liquid, and thus improving the performance of carbon fiber.

[0030] (6) In some preferred embodiments, during the ammoniation process, an inclined blade agitator is used to lift the polymer solution upwards, generating strong axial flow and causing the polymer solution to circulate vertically during stirring. This flow pattern helps ammonia gas to be better dispersed in the polymer solution, improving mass transfer efficiency and ammoniation effect. By precisely controlling the structural parameters of the inclined blade agitator, vertical circulation can be better promoted, further improving mass transfer efficiency and ammoniation effect. After ammoniation treatment using the preparation method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, the pH of the resulting carbon fiber spinning solution is 8-10, preferably 8.4-9.8, and more preferably 8.9-9.5.

[0031] In this invention, the above-described technical solutions can be combined with each other to achieve more preferred combinations. Other features and advantages of this invention will be set forth in the following description, and some advantages may become apparent from the description or be learned by practicing the invention. The objects and other advantages of this invention can be realized and obtained from what is particularly pointed out in the description and drawings. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0039] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which form part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0040] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a carbon fiber spinning solution, comprising:

[0041] Materials containing acrylonitrile, comonomers and solvents are added to the polymerization apparatus;

[0042] Based on the viscosity changes of the material, the timing for adding the remaining initiator after the polymerization starts and the timing for terminating the reaction are determined, and the target molecular weight of the acrylonitrile-based polymerization solution is controlled by the material temperature and the proportion of the remaining initiator in the total initiator.

[0043] The acrylonitrile-based polymerization solution that meets the target molecular weight is subjected to a single-molecule removal treatment;

[0044] The acrylonitrile-based polymer solution after the de-monopolymerization process is subjected to ammoniation treatment.

[0045] In some embodiments, determining the timing of adding the remaining initiator after polymerization start-up and the timing of terminating the reaction based on the viscosity change of the material includes:

[0046] Heat to the polymerization temperature and add some initiator;

[0047] Real-time monitoring of material viscosity:

[0048] When the material viscosity reaches the first viscosity threshold, the remaining initiator is added. When the material viscosity reaches the second viscosity threshold, the reaction is terminated to obtain an acrylonitrile-based polymer liquid with the target molecular weight. The first viscosity threshold is less than the second viscosity threshold.

[0049] Preferably, the first viscosity threshold is 200P-400P; and / or, the second viscosity threshold is 600P-1000P.

[0050] Preferably, the polymerization temperature is 50-60℃, and when the material viscosity reaches the first viscosity threshold, the material temperature is raised to the target temperature of 60-70℃.

[0051] Preferably, the remaining initiator accounts for 20-40% of the total initiator.

[0052] By controlling the appropriate viscosity threshold, material temperature (polymerization temperature and target temperature to which the temperature is raised when the threshold is reached), and the proportion of the remaining initiator in the total initiator, it is beneficial to obtain acrylonitrile-based polymer solutions with high molecular weight and narrow distribution while increasing the polymerization reaction rate.

[0053] For example, the polymerization temperature is 52°C, 54°C, 56°C, or 58°C. Preferably, the polymerization temperature is 55-60°C.

[0054] For example, the target temperature is 62°C, 64°C, 67°C, or 69°C. Preferably, the target temperature is 66-68°C.

[0055] For example, the first viscosity threshold is 250P, 280P, 330P, 350P, or 380P. More preferably, the first viscosity threshold is 300P-400P.

[0056] For example, the second viscosity threshold is 650P, 700P, 750P, 800P, 850P, 900P, or 950P. Preferably, the second viscosity threshold is 750P-950P.

[0057] For example, the proportion of the remaining initiator in the total initiator is 23%, 25%, 27%, 30%, 33%, 35%, or 37%. Preferably, the proportion of the remaining initiator in the total initiator is 30-40%. It should be noted that by precisely controlling the viscosity threshold, the material temperature (polymerization temperature and the target temperature to which the temperature is raised when the viscosity threshold is reached), and the proportion of the remaining initiator in the total initiator, it is possible to obtain a high molecular weight, narrow distribution polymer solution while achieving micro-tuning of the polymer solution's molecular weight.

[0058] In some embodiments, the polymerization temperature is 50-52°C, the first viscosity threshold is 200-250P, and when the material viscosity reaches the first viscosity threshold, the target temperature is raised to 68-70°C. The remaining initiator accounts for 35-40% of the total initiator. The second viscosity threshold is 620-650P. The molecular weight (M) of the obtained acrylonitrile-based polymer solution is... W The value is 200,000-220,000, and the polydispersity index (PDI) is 2.5-3.0.

[0059] In some embodiments, the polymerization temperature is 54-56°C, the first viscosity threshold is 250-300P, and when the material viscosity reaches the first viscosity threshold, the target temperature is raised to 64-66°C. The remaining initiator accounts for 35-40% of the total initiator. The second viscosity threshold is 700-750P. The molecular weight (M) of the obtained acrylonitrile-based polymer solution is... W The value is 210,000-230,000, and the polydispersity index (PDI) is 2.2-2.7.

[0060] In some embodiments, the polymerization temperature is 58-60°C, the first viscosity threshold is 250-300P, and when the material viscosity reaches the first viscosity threshold, the target temperature is raised to 60-62°C. The remaining initiator accounts for 35-40% of the total initiator. The second viscosity threshold is 700-750P. The molecular weight (M) of the obtained acrylonitrile-based polymer solution is... W The value is 220,000-240,000, and the polydispersity index (PDI) is 2.2-2.7.

[0061] In some embodiments, the polymerization temperature is 54-56°C, the first viscosity threshold is 300-350P, and when the material viscosity reaches the first viscosity threshold, the target temperature is raised to 64-66°C. The remaining initiator accounts for 30-35% of the total initiator. The second viscosity threshold is 800-850P. The molecular weight (M) of the obtained acrylonitrile-based polymer solution is... W The value is 230,000-250,000, and the polydispersity index (PDI) is 2.0-2.5.

[0062] In some embodiments, the polymerization temperature is 54-56°C, the first viscosity threshold is 350P-400P, and when the material viscosity reaches the first viscosity threshold, the target temperature is raised to 64-66°C. The remaining initiator accounts for 30-35% of the total initiator. The second viscosity threshold is 900-950P. The molecular weight (M) of the obtained acrylonitrile-based polymer solution is... W The value is 230,000-250,000, and the polydispersity index (PDI) is 2.0-2.5.

[0063] In some embodiments, the step of real-time monitoring of material viscosity includes: setting up a material return pipeline, real-time monitoring of the pressure of the material at a fixed position in the return pipeline, and obtaining the real-time monitored material viscosity based on the real-time viscosity value converted from the pressure value.

[0064] Specifically, the material is drawn from the polymerization unit and flows through the return pipeline at a constant temperature and flow rate, eventually converging back into the polymerization unit. By monitoring the pressure of the material at a fixed position in the return pipeline in real time, and combining the pressure-viscosity relationship, the pressure value is converted into a real-time viscosity value.

[0065] Furthermore, the method for determining the pressure-viscosity relationship includes: setting multiple data acquisition times, recording the pressure value and the viscosity value obtained by experimental methods at a fixed position in the return pipeline at each data acquisition time, performing mathematical fitting of the pressure value and viscosity value, and establishing the pressure-viscosity relationship.

[0066] Specifically, the steps for obtaining the viscosity value using the experimental method include: taking a sample from the polymerization apparatus and measuring the viscosity of the sample using a viscosity measuring instrument. Preferably, the sampling location is adjacent to the location where the material is drawn out of the polymerization apparatus. Exemplarily, the viscosity measuring instrument includes a falling ball viscometer and a rotational viscometer.

[0067] To ensure the reliability and consistency of pressure measurement results, ensuring the material flows through the return pipeline at a constant temperature and flow rate includes: placing the return pipeline in a constant-temperature circulating water system and installing a constant-speed gear pump on the return pipeline. The constant-temperature circulating water system ensures that the material temperature remains constant during flow, and by controlling the speed of the gear pump, the material can be ensured to flow through the pipeline at a constant flow rate.

[0068] It is understandable that, under conditions of constant flow rate, constant temperature, and a fixed-length pipeline (with constant pipeline resistance), the viscosity of the material can be obtained by measuring the pressure generated when the polymer flows through a fixed position in the return pipeline and combining this with the pressure-viscosity relationship. Preferably, the above-mentioned real-time monitoring of material viscosity is applicable to materials with a viscosity of 0-1000P.

[0069] Preferably, the length of the return pipe is 0.5-1.5 meters and the diameter is 5-20 mm. For example, the length of the return pipe is 1.0 meter and the diameter is 10 mm.

[0070] In some embodiments, for the acrylonitrile-based polymer solution obtained by polymerizing acrylonitrile and comonomer, the pressure-viscosity relationship is as follows:

[0071] y = -0.045x 2 +13.78x-106.8

[0072] Where y is the viscosity measured by the falling ball method, in units of P; and x is the pressure, in units of kPa.

[0073] For example, the viscosity y is the viscosity measured by the falling ball method at 40-50°C. For instance, within a time range of ±Δ around each data acquisition time t (preferably Δ≤10min), the pressure value at a fixed location on the reflux pipeline is recorded N times. Samples are taken from the polymerization unit at N times at the same time points as the recorded pressure values. Viscosity measurements are performed at N temperature points within the 40-50°C range. The viscosity y and pressure x are fitted using data fitting software (e.g., EXCEL, Matlab, or Python), with the fitting criterion being the coefficient of determination R0. 2 ≥95%, preferred R 2 ≥98%, yielding the pressure-viscosity relationship. The model type of this relationship includes at least one of exponential, linear, logarithmic, polynomial (2nd order or higher), and power-law. For example, N is 3, and the test conditions are 40℃, 45℃, and 50℃. For example, Δ = 8 min, 5 min, 2 min, and 1 min.

[0074] Preferably, the constant temperature is 40–50°C; and / or the constant flow rate is 1–2 L / h.

[0075] Preferably, the location where the material is drawn out from the polymerization device is set 10-20 cm below the lower end of the stirring device inside the polymerization device. This location is where the flowability of the polymerization liquid is optimal, which facilitates timely and accurate monitoring of the real-time viscosity of the polymerization liquid in the polymerization reactor.

[0076] In one embodiment, the step of real-time monitoring of the pressure of the material at a fixed position in the return pipeline and converting the pressure value into a real-time viscosity value in conjunction with the pressure-viscosity relationship includes: setting an online pressure-viscosity converter at a fixed position in the return pipeline, the online pressure-viscosity converter including a pressure detector and a processor;

[0077] The pressure detector is used to collect the pressure signal of the polymer liquid in the return pipeline in real time, and transmit the pressure signal to the processor through the line; the processor converts the pressure signal into a viscosity value according to the preset pressure-viscosity relationship, and transmits the viscosity value to the display set outside the polymerization device for real-time display through the line.

[0078] Specifically, the proportions of the materials and the total amount of the initiator, by weight, are as follows: acrylonitrile 20-24 parts, comonomer 1-2 parts, solvent 73.65-78.85 parts, and total initiator 0.15-0.35 parts. Preferably, the total amount of initiator is 0.2-0.3 parts.

[0079] Optionally, the comonomer is one or a combination of itaconic acid, acrylic acid, methyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, isobutylacrylic acid, β-butyl itaconic acid, acrylamide, acrylamide oxime, hydroxyethyl acrylonitrile, α-chloroacrylonitrile, or diacetone acrylamide. For example, the comonomer is itaconic acid.

[0080] Optionally, the initiator is at least one selected from azobisisobutyronitrile, azobisisoheptanenitrile, and dimethyl azobisisobutyrate. For example, the initiator is azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN).

[0081] Optionally, the solvent is at least one selected from dimethyl sulfoxide, sodium thiocyanate, and N,N-dimethylformamide. For example, dimethyl sulfoxide is used as the solvent.

[0082] In some embodiments, the material further includes a molecular weight regulator; exemplarily, the molecular weight regulator is isopropanol; acrylonitrile and comonomer are used as copolymer components, and the amount of molecular weight regulator added is 0.002-0.005% of the total mass of the copolymer components.

[0083] Specifically, after the material is added to the polymerization device, before the polymerization is started, the material is stirred by a stirring device to make it evenly mixed. The stirring device is located in the center of the liquid inside the polymerization vessel and stirs in the same direction.

[0084] Preferably, the stirring device includes a ribbon mixer and a wall-scraping mixer.

[0085] Preferably, before polymerization begins, the stirring speed is 20-80 rpm, and the stirring time is 30-60 min. Exemplarily, the stirring speed is 30 rpm, 40 rpm, 50 rpm, 60 rpm, or 70 rpm, and the stirring time is 35 min, 40 min, 45 min, 50 min, or 55 min.

[0086] (a) For a ribbon agitator, the following conditions must be met: S1 = (50-70%)S2, S1 = Π×(1 / 2D1) 2 D1 is the outer diameter of the helical ribbon, and S2 is the inner cross-sectional area of ​​the polymerization reactor. For example, S1 / S2 = 55%, 60%, and 65%.

[0087] (b) For wall-scraping agitators, the following condition must be met: L ≤ 10 mm, where L represents the gap between the wall-scraping component (such as a scraper or blade) of the wall-scraping agitator and the inner wall of the polymerization reactor. As the polymerization reaction proceeds, the viscosity of the liquid inside the polymerization reactor continuously increases, becoming a high-viscosity liquid. By using a wall-scraping agitator and controlling L, it is possible to effectively prevent the high-viscosity liquid from adhering to the inner wall of the polymerization reactor and forming a sticky residue.

[0088] During the stirring process, the liquid level h in the polymerization reactor accounts for 10%-90% of the total height H of the polymerization reactor. For example, h / H = 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, and 80%. Preferably, h / H = 80-90%.

[0089] By selecting the preferred stirring device and stirring parameters mentioned above, it is possible to ensure that the materials are mixed evenly before polymerization starts in an energy-efficient manner.

[0090] Preferably, by weight, acrylonitrile is 22-24 parts, comonomer is 1-2 parts, solvent is 73.7-76.8 parts, stirring speed is 40-60 rpm, and stirring time is 30-45 min.

[0091] Preferably, by weight, acrylonitrile is 20-22 parts, comonomer is 1-2 parts, solvent is 74.7-77.8 parts, stirring speed is 50-70 rpm, and stirring time is 45-55 min.

[0092] For example, uniformity of the liquid temperature inside the polymerization reactor is used to determine whether the materials are mixed evenly. Specifically, during the stirring process, a temperature difference of ≤1℃ between the liquids inside the polymerization reactor is used as the criterion for determining uniform mixing.

[0093] Specifically, the polymerization reaction is carried out under the protection of an inert gas. The inert gas flow rate is 50-100 L / h; the inert gas pressure is ≤0.1 MPa. Oxygen in the air has an inhibitory effect on polymerization, while inert gas can isolate oxygen. Using an inert gas with appropriate flow rate and pressure is conducive to the polymerization reaction.

[0094] Preferably, the inert gas enters the polymerization reactor from one side of the top and exits from the other side of the top, thus better displacing the original air in the polymerization reactor. The inert gas is selected from at least one of nitrogen, argon, or helium.

[0095] For example, the inert gas flow rate is 60 L / h, 70 L / h, 75 L / h, or 85 L / h.

[0096] For example, the inert gas pressure is 0.07 MPa, 0.05 MPa, 0.04 MPa, 0.02 MPa, or 0.01 MPa.

[0097] Preferably, the inert gas flow rate is 80-90 L / h and the inert gas pressure is 0.06-0.08 MPa. Precise control of the inert gas flow rate and pressure facilitates the polymerization process to obtain a high molecular weight polymer with a narrow distribution.

[0098] Preferably, pre-dissolving the initiator in a solvent before adding it to the polymerization apparatus in batches helps ensure that the initiator achieves a more rapid and uniform distribution throughout the reaction system, improves the uniformity of the polymerization reaction rate at different locations in the polymerization apparatus, and is beneficial for obtaining a high molecular weight polymer solution with a narrow distribution. Preferably, for the case where the initiator is 0.15-0.35 parts, the solvent used to dissolve the initiator is 5-10 parts.

[0099] Specifically, after polymerization starts, the material in the polymerization reactor is continuously stirred at a speed of 30-80 rpm. For example, after polymerization starts, the stirring speed is 35 rpm, 40 rpm, 45 rpm, 50 rpm, 55 rpm, 60 rpm, 65 rpm, 70 rpm, and 75 rpm.

[0100] Preferably, after polymerization starts and before adding the remaining initiator, the stirring speed is 30-60 rpm, more preferably 40-60 rpm. After adding the remaining initiator, the stirring speed is 50-80 rpm, more preferably 50-70 rpm.

[0101] Preferably, in the single-solution process, the polymer liquid undergoes gas-liquid exchange with the countercurrent solvent vapor through multiple layers of perforated partitions. At each layer of perforated partitions, the polymer liquid is divided into two parts: one part of the polymer liquid is spread flat on the perforated partition to form a thin liquid layer and flows downward through the holes in the perforated partition, and the other part of the polymer liquid flows downward from the suspended end on the side of the perforated partition.

[0102] This optimized monomer removal method significantly improves the monomer removal effect and efficiency, effectively preventing skinning or coking inside the monomer removal device and reducing gel formation in the polymer solution during the monomer removal process. After being introduced into the monomer removal device, the polymer solution is evenly distributed on the first perforated partition plate through a porous distribution system, forming a uniform thin liquid layer. The polymer solution mainly flows to the next partition plate through the holes in the partition plate and continues to spread on the lower partition plate to form a thin liquid layer, thus ensuring that the polymer solution thin liquid layer on each partition plate can achieve efficient gas-liquid exchange with solvent vapor. Simultaneously, excess high-viscosity material can flow smoothly to the next partition plate through the channel between the suspended end of the partition plate and the inner wall of the tank. This flow path not only ensures the monomer removal effect but also effectively prevents skinning and coking on the inner wall of the device, reduces gel formation in the polymer solution, and ensures efficient production. Compared with traditional monomer removal methods such as falling film towers and high-gravity rotating beds, the monomer removal process of this invention significantly reduces the stringent requirements on process parameters and equipment processing precision. Especially when dealing with acrylonitrile-based polymer solutions with high viscosity and high molecular weight, this invention exhibits better adaptability and stability, effectively avoiding the coking and skinning problems common in traditional methods, while significantly reducing the formation of gel in the polymer solution during monomer removal.

[0103] More preferably, a portion of the polymer solution flows through the holes in the perforated partition to the next perforated partition or the polymer solution collection area, and the positions of the holes exiting the adjacent perforated partitions are different. The other portion of the polymer solution flows from the suspended end on the side of the perforated partition to the next perforated partition or the polymer solution collection area. In the monomer removal process, by optimizing the polymer solution flow path as described above, the contact time between the polymer solution and solvent vapor is extended, ensuring that unreacted monomers (such as acrylonitrile) are removed more thoroughly, thus meeting the monomer removal requirements for high-viscosity polymer solutions.

[0104] In some embodiments, during the depolymerization process, the polymer solution enters the depolymerization device from the top or upper part, and after passing through a porous distribution plate, it is distributed onto the first layer of perforated partition plates, so that the polymer solution can be more evenly distributed on the first layer of perforated partition plates, thereby improving the depolymerization effect and efficiency.

[0105] It is understood that the monomer removal process includes: the polymerization liquid enters the monomer removal device and flows from top to bottom through multiple layers of perforated baffles to form a continuous liquid film flow; at the same time, solvent vapor enters the monomer removal device and flows from bottom to top through multiple layers of perforated baffles to fully contact the flowing polymerization liquid and perform gas-liquid exchange; the solvent vapor carries the residual volatile monomers in the polymerization liquid and is discharged from the monomer removal device; the polymerization liquid after monomer removal treatment is discharged from the monomer removal device, completing the monomer removal process.

[0106] For example, the single-person removal process is performed under negative pressure. The vacuum degree of the negative pressure is 100-5000 Pa. For example, the vacuum degree is 200 Pa, 500 Pa, 800 Pa, 1000 Pa, 2000 Pa, 3000 Pa, or 4000 Pa. Preferably, the vacuum degree is 500-2000 Pa.

[0107] Preferably, in the monomer removal process, the inlet temperature of the polymerization solution is 50-70°C, more preferably 65-70°C. Exemplarily, the inlet temperature of the polymerization solution is 54°C, 58°C, 62°C, or 66°C.

[0108] Preferably, in the monomer removal process, the influent flow rate of the polymerization solution is 3-5 m³ / h. 3 / h, preferably 3-4m 3 / h. In the monomer removal process, the temperature of the monomer removal system is controlled at 50-70℃, and more preferably, the temperature of the monomer removal system gradually increases from top to bottom. For example, the inlet flow rate of the polymerization solution is 3.3m³. 3 / h, 3.6m 3 / h, 3.9m 3 / h, 4.2m 3 / h, 4.5m 3 / h, 4.8m 3 / h.

[0109] Preferably, in the solvent vapor inlet temperature is 80-100°C; more preferably, it is 90-100°C. Exemplarily, the solvent vapor inlet temperature is 84°C, 88°C, 92°C, or 96°C.

[0110] Preferably, in the solvent vapor inlet pressure is 0.01-0.5 MPa; more preferably 0.2-0.3 MPa. Exemplarily, the solvent vapor inlet pressure is 0.05 MPa, 0.1 MPa, 0.15 MPa, 0.25 MPa, 0.35 MPa, 0.40 MPa, or 0.45 MPa.

[0111] In some embodiments, during the carbon fiber polymerization process, the influent viscosity of the carbon fiber polymer solution is 600-1000P, and the weight-average molecular weight is 200,000-250,000.

[0112] The inventors discovered that in the monomer removal process, a better monomer removal effect can be obtained when the inlet flow rate of the polymerization liquid and the inlet flow rate of the solvent vapor satisfy a specific relationship. Specifically, the inlet flow rate Q1 of the polymerization liquid and the inlet flow rate Q2 of the solvent vapor satisfy the following relationship:

[0113] Q2≥k×Q1×m×α×1000

[0114] Where Q1 is in meters (m)3 / h, Q2 is in L / h, m is the mass percentage of residual monomer in the polymerization liquid; α is the flow coefficient of solvent vapor, and the value of α ranges from 1.0 to 1.2; k is the proportionality coefficient, and the value of k ranges from 1.5 to 1.9.

[0115] For example, k = 1.60, 1.65, 1.70, 1.72, 1.74, 1.75, 1.80, 1.85. For instance, k = 1.737.

[0116] Preferably, Q1 is 3-5m 3 / h.

[0117] When 3.0m 3 / h≤Q1<3.7m 3 / h, preferably, k takes the value of 1.8-1.9.

[0118] When 3.7m 3 / h≤Q1<4.4m 3 / h, preferably, k takes the value of 1.7-1.8.

[0119] When 4.4m 3 / h≤Q1≤5.0m 3 / h, preferably, k takes the value of 1.6-1.7.

[0120] In one embodiment, Q1 = 3m 3 With a flow rate of 10%, m = 10%, α = 1.0, and k = 1.9, when Q2 ≥ 570 L / h, the residual acrylonitrile (AN) monomers in the polymer solution after monomer removal are less than 100 ppm, according to the test.

[0121] In one embodiment, Q1 = 4m 3 Given a flow rate of 10%, m = 10%, α = 1.1, and k = 1.73, if Q2 ≥ 760 L / h, the residual acrylonitrile (AN) monomers in the polymer solution after monomer removal are less than 100 ppm, according to the test.

[0122] In one embodiment, Q1 = 5m 3 Given a / h, m=9%, α=1.2, k=1.60, and satisfying Q2≥860L / h, the residual acrylonitrile (AN) monomers in the polymer solution after monomer removal are less than 100ppm according to the test.

[0123] The above embodiments fully verify the reliability of the relation Q2≥k×Q1×m×α×1000.

[0124] In the above embodiments, by precisely controlling the process parameters of the monomer removal process, such as the inlet flow rate of the polymerization liquid, the inlet flow rate of the solvent vapor, the inlet temperature of the polymerization liquid, and the inlet temperature / pressure of the solvent vapor, it is beneficial to improve the monomer removal efficiency and effect, avoid skinning or coking in the monomer removal equipment, and significantly reduce gel formation in the polymerization liquid. In some embodiments, the monomer removal effect is significant, with the residual monomer content after monomer removal being less than 100 ppm, and the monomer removal process is highly efficient and continuous, with the polymerization liquid continuously entering and exiting the monomer removal device according to the operating conditions. In addition, the phenomenon of skinning or coking in the equipment is greatly reduced, and no obvious discoloration is observed on the inner wall of the device through the viewing window on the monomer removal device. In traditional monomer removal devices, due to uneven heating of the polymerization liquid flow, local gelation occurs, and even coking occurs on the inner wall of the device, resulting in the filter replacement cycle for removing gel from the polymerization liquid after monomer removal being only 1-2 months, or even shorter. However, by using the monomer removal treatment of the present invention, gel formation in the polymerization liquid is significantly reduced, extending the filter replacement cycle to more than 3 months, thereby improving the equipment operating efficiency and service life. The above replacement cycle is based on the condition that the filter is replaced when the pressure is increased to half of its pressure resistance rating.

[0125] For example, in the monomer removal process, the solvent vapor is at least one selected from dimethyl sulfoxide, sodium thiocyanate, and N,N-dimethylformamide. The selected solvent vapor is the same as the solvent in the polymerization solution.

[0126] In the ammoniation process, the polymerization liquid is kept flowing and the temperature is controlled at 60-65°C in the storage tank of the ammoniation unit, which is the optimal temperature range for the ammoniation of acrylonitrile-based polymers. Specifically, the polymerization liquid flows in from the top of the storage tank of the ammoniation unit and flows out from the bottom of the tank.

[0127] To ensure that carboxyl groups and other functional groups on the molecular chains in the polymerization solution are effectively converted into hydrophilic groups such as carboxylic acids and amines through ammoniation, preferably, in the ammoniation process, the mass M of ammonia gas required to be introduced per 1 kg of polymerization solution is determined based on the flow rate Q3 of the polymerization solution and the following relationship: M = Q3 × n; where M is in mg and Q3 is in m³. 3 / h, where n ranges from 1.25 to 3.0.

[0128] For example, n = 1.5, 1.8, 2.1, 2.4, 2.7.

[0129] Preferably, the value of Q3 is in the range of 3-5m. 3 / h.

[0130] When 3.0m 3 / h≤Q3<3.5m 3 / h, preferably, n takes a value in the range of 2.0-2.7.

[0131] When 3.5m 3 / h≤Q3<4.3m 3 / h, preferably, n takes a value in the range of 1.25-1.75.

[0132] When 4.3m 3 / h≤Q3≤5.0m 3 / h, preferably, n takes a value in the range of 1.6-2.0.

[0133] In one embodiment, Q3 = 3m 3 When M is 6-8 mg / h, tests show that the pH of the spinning solution after amination is 8-10, indicating good amination effect.

[0134] In one embodiment, Q3 = 4m 3 When M is 5-7 mg / h, tests show that the pH of the spinning solution after amination is 8-10, indicating good amination effect.

[0135] In one embodiment, Q3 = 5m 3 When M is 8-10 mg / h, tests show that the pH of the spinning solution after amination is 8-10, indicating good amination effect.

[0136] Preferably, the ammonia gas introduction time is controlled at 5-8 hours.

[0137] In the ammoniation process, based on the material ratio provided by the present invention, the ammonia flow rate is precisely controlled according to the flow rate Q3 of the polymerization liquid and the following relationship: M = Q3 × n, which can not only ensure good ammoniation effect, but also save ammonia and ammoniation time.

[0138] Preferably, in the ammoniation treatment, an inclined blade agitator is used to stir the polymerization liquid. The inclined blade agitator includes multiple inclined blades with an inclination angle of 40-50°. The inclined blades are rectangular and have a length of L that satisfies πL. 2 = (50-70%)S4, where S4 is the cross-sectional area of ​​the storage tank in the ammoniation unit. During ammoniation, the stirring speed is controlled at 30-50 r / min. For example, during ammoniation, the stirring speed is controlled at 35 r / min, 40 r / min, and 45 r / min.

[0139] By employing an inclined blade agitator to lift the polymerization liquid upwards, a strong axial flow is generated, creating a circulating flow between the polymer and the surrounding environment during stirring. This flow pattern helps to better disperse ammonia gas in the polymerization liquid, improving mass transfer efficiency and ammoniation effect. Precise control of the structural parameters of the inclined blade agitator can further promote this circulating flow, thereby enhancing mass transfer efficiency and ammoniation effect.

[0140] Preferably, the ammoniation treatment is carried out under a slightly positive pressure, which allows ammonia gas to diffuse more effectively and come into full contact with the polymerization liquid, while ensuring system safety. Specifically, during the ammoniation process, a pressure slightly higher than the external atmospheric pressure, i.e., a slightly positive pressure, is applied inside the storage tank. The slightly positive pressure is 0-2000 Pa, meaning the pressure inside the storage tank is 0-2000 Pa higher than the external atmospheric pressure. More preferably, the slightly positive pressure is 100-1000 Pa. Exemplarily, the slightly positive pressure is 50 Pa, 200 Pa, 500 Pa, 800 Pa, 1300 Pa, 1500 Pa, or 1800 Pa.

[0141] By employing the ammoniation treatment provided in the above embodiments of the present invention, the pH of the obtained carbon fiber spinning solution can be guaranteed to be between 8 and 10, further between 8.4 and 9.8, and preferably between 8.9 and 9.5.

[0142] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a carbon fiber spinning solution, which is prepared by the preparation method described in the first aspect.

[0143] Specifically, the molecular weight M of the acrylonitrile-based polymer solution obtained by polymerization is... W The polydispersity index (PDI) is 2.0-3.0, the falling ball viscosity at 40-50℃ is 600-1000 P, the solid content in the polymerization solution is 19.0-21.0%, the polymerization conversion rate is ≥90%, and the residual monomer content of the acrylonitrile-based polymerization solution is ≤10%. After monomer removal treatment, the residual monomer content of the acrylonitrile-based polymerization solution is ≤350 ppm. After ammoniation treatment, the pH of the resulting carbon fiber spinning solution is 8-10.

[0144] In some embodiments, the molecular weight M of the acrylonitrile-based polymer solution obtained by polymerization is... W The polydispersity index (PDI) is 2.1-2.6, the falling ball viscosity at 40-50°C is 620-910P, the solid content in the polymerization solution is 19.2-20.6%, the polymerization conversion rate is 92-95%, and the residual monomer content of the acrylonitrile-based polymer solution is ≤3%, further, ≤2%, and further, ≤1%. After monomer removal treatment, the residual monomer content of the acrylonitrile-based polymer solution is <100ppm, more preferably, less than 50ppm, and further, less than 30ppm. After ammoniation treatment, the pH of the obtained carbon fiber spinning solution is 8.4-9.8, preferably 8.9-9.5.

[0145] Thirdly, the present invention provides a production equipment for carbon fiber spinning solution, the production equipment being used for the production and preparation of carbon fiber spinning solution obtained by the preparation method described in the first aspect or as described in the second aspect.

[0146] Specifically, the production equipment includes a desiccant unit, an ammoniation unit, and a polymerization unit.

[0147] (1) Singles-finding device:

[0148] The single-discarding device 100 includes a tank A and multiple perforated baffles 11 disposed inside the tank. The multiple perforated baffles are arranged in layers from top to bottom along the axial direction of the tank, and each layer of perforated baffles is perpendicular to the axial direction of the tank. Each layer of perforated baffles includes a fixed end on one side and a suspended end on the other side. The fixed end is fixed to the inner wall of the tank, and the suspended end on the other side extends freely. The suspended end of the upper layer of perforated baffle is located on one side of the axial direction of the tank, and the suspended end of the lower layer of perforated baffle adjacent to the upper layer of perforated baffle is located on the other side of the axial direction of the tank. The suspended ends of the multiple layers of perforated baffles form an alternating staggered layout in space.

[0149] Compared with existing technologies, this invention incorporates multiple perforated baffles within the monomer removal device. The polymer solution spreads evenly on each baffle to form a thin liquid layer, with the suspended ends of adjacent baffles staggered to ensure smooth flow of the polymer solution. This structural design optimizes the flow path of the polymer solution within the tank. On one hand, the thin liquid layer increases the specific surface area of ​​the material; on the other hand, it extends the residence time of the solution within the equipment, providing more opportunities for solvent vapor to contact residual monomers, thereby significantly improving the monomer removal effect.

[0150] The monomer removal device of this invention designs channels between the suspended end of each perforated baffle and the inner wall of the tank, ensuring that the polymer liquid can flow smoothly to the next layer after forming a thin liquid layer. This structure not only achieves uniform distribution and effective guidance of high molecular weight, high viscosity polymer liquid materials on the baffle, but also significantly reduces problems such as coking, skinning, or gel formation in the polymer liquid that are prone to occur when processing such materials in traditional devices. In addition, it effectively avoids internal blockage of the monomer removal device, improves operational stability, reduces equipment cleaning and maintenance costs, and improves production efficiency.

[0151] Preferably, the area of ​​each perforated baffle layer accounts for 80%-90% of the cross-sectional area of ​​the tank at that layer, with the remaining 10-20% serving as a smooth channel for the flow of the polymer liquid.

[0152] Preferably, the pores of adjacent perforated partitions are staggered, with the position of the pores on each perforated partition offset relative to the position of the pores on its directly adjacent perforated partition. This staggered pore distribution further increases the contact area and time between solvent vapor and the polymerization liquid, thereby improving gas-liquid exchange efficiency and helping the solvent vapor to more effectively remove residual monomers from the polymerization liquid. In addition, the staggered pore distribution can optimize the flow path, making the flow of the polymerization liquid more uniform, reducing local overheating or undercooling, lowering the risk of coking and skinning, and reducing gel formation in the polymerization liquid.

[0153] Preferably, the multi-layer perforated baffles are distributed parallel to each other at equal intervals from top to bottom along the axial direction of the tank. This preferred baffle distribution helps achieve uniform flow of the polymer liquid within the tank, reduces dead zones, lowers the risk of coking and scaling, reduces gel formation in the polymer liquid, and ensures sufficient contact between solvent vapor and the polymer liquid, thereby improving the monomer removal effect and efficiency.

[0154] Preferably, within the tank, the distance between the first and last perforated baffles accounts for 1 / 2 to 4 / 5 of the total height of the tank, more preferably 60%-70%, such as 2 / 3. This allows for more efficient use of the tank space, increases the contact time and area between the polymer liquid and solvent vapor, and improves the polymerization effect and efficiency. The appropriate space at the top and bottom facilitates the heat and mass transfer processes, ensuring uniform distribution of heat and matter throughout the tank, reducing dead zones in the polymer liquid, avoiding local overheating or undercooling, and helping to reduce the risk of coking and skinning, as well as reducing gel formation in the polymer liquid.

[0155] Furthermore, a polymer liquid inlet 12 is provided at the top or upper part of the tank body, and a perforated distribution plate 13 is provided between the polymer liquid inlet 12 and the adjacent first layer perforated partition plate, and the distribution plate 13 is arranged parallel to the first layer perforated partition plate.

[0156] Preferably, the area ratio of the distribution plate 13 to the first perforated partition is 40%-60%, more preferably 45%-55%.

[0157] Preferably, the distance between the upper surface of the distribution plate 13 and the lower end of the polymer inlet 12 is 15%-40% of the distance between the lower end of the polymer inlet 12 and the upper surface of the first perforated partition plate; more preferably, it is 20%-30%.

[0158] The main function of the distribution plate is to distribute the polymer liquid entering from the feed inlet evenly onto the first perforated baffle plate after passing through a porous distribution system, thus forming a uniform, thin layer of polymer liquid on the baffle plate. By controlling the spatial layout of the distribution plate within the tank and its area ratio with adjacent perforated baffle plates, it is beneficial to form a more uniform, thin layer of polymer liquid, increase the contact area and time between the polymer liquid and solvent vapor, and improve the polymerization effect and efficiency.

[0159] By precisely controlling the shape and structural parameters of the perforated baffle and its spatial arrangement within the tank, the monomer removal effect can be improved, while avoiding localized overheating or undercooling, further reducing the risk of coking and skinning, and minimizing gel formation in the polymerization solution. Using the monomer removal device provided by this invention to treat the polymerization solution ensures that the residual monomer content in the polymer solution is reduced to below 100 ppm after monomer removal.

[0160] Specifically, the perforated partition has at least one of the following features:

[0161] (a) The number of layers of the perforated partition is 4-8;

[0162] (b) The aperture size of each perforated partition is 0.5-2 mm and the hole spacing is 10-40 mm; for example, the aperture size is 1 mm or 1.5 mm and the hole spacing is 20 mm or 30 mm.

[0163] (c) The arrangement of the multiple holes on each layer of perforated partition is preferably a ring array; further, the multiple holes cover the entire perforated partition.

[0164] (d) The spacing between two adjacent perforated partitions is 300-800 mm; preferably 400-600 mm, for example 500 mm;

[0165] (e) The thickness of each perforated partition is 6-12 mm;

[0166] (f) The holes of adjacent perforated partitions are staggered, and the offset distance between the corresponding hole centers of adjacent layers is 10-30mm; preferably, they are arranged in an alternating staggered manner: the odd-numbered layers and the even-numbered layers are kept consistent, but the odd-numbered layers and the even-numbered layers are staggered by a certain distance.

[0167] (g) To facilitate better spreading of the polymer solution into a thin film on the perforated partition and thus improve the monomer removal effect, the perforated partition is preferably made of 316L stainless steel, 1Cr18NiMo3 stainless steel, or AL-1100 aluminum alloy. All of these materials are commercially available alloy grades.

[0168] Furthermore, a solvent vapor inlet is provided at the lower part of the tank. The solvent vaporizer also includes a solvent vaporizer B. The upper part of the solvent vaporizer B is connected to the solvent vapor inlet via a pipeline. A solvent inlet 14 is provided at the bottom of the solvent vaporizer B. A coil 15 is provided inside the solvent vaporizer B. One end of the coil 15 is connected to the coil inlet 15a provided at the upper part of the solvent vaporizer B, and the other end of the coil 15 is connected to the coil outlet 15b provided at the lower part of the solvent vaporizer B.

[0169] Understandably, during operation, the solvent enters the solvent vaporizer B through the solvent inlet 14, and water vapor enters the coil through the coil inlet 15a, flows along the coil, and finally flows out through the coil outlet 15b. During the flow of water vapor inside the coil, it transfers heat to the solvent outside the coil, causing it to vaporize into solvent vapor 16. Solvent vapor 16 then flows into the tank A through the solvent vapor inlet.

[0170] For example, the solvent vapor inlet is located below the last layer of perforated baffle and above the liquid surface of the polymerized liquid after depolymerization and the liquefied solvent mixture collected at the bottom of tank A.

[0171] Specifically, a vacuum port 17 is provided at the upper part or top of the tank A; the monomer removal device also includes a liquid ring vacuum jet device, which is connected to the vacuum port 17 via a pipeline, thereby providing a stable negative pressure inside the tank A in the monomer removal device and discharging the solvent vapor carrying the monomer. Specifically, a heating jacket is provided on the outer wall of the tank A to bring the polymerization liquid inside the tank A to the required monomer removal temperature.

[0172] Specifically, a polymer liquid outlet 18 is provided at the lower part or bottom of the tank A.

[0173] (2) Ammoniation unit:

[0174] The ammoniation unit 200 includes a storage tank and an inclined blade agitator 21 disposed inside the storage tank; the inclined blade agitator 21 includes a plurality of agitators 21a arranged in layers along the axial direction of the storage tank, and the plurality of agitators are connected to the same rotating shaft 21b. Preferably, the plurality of agitators are distributed at equal intervals along the axial direction of the storage tank.

[0175] Each agitator includes multiple inclined agitator blades. Preferably, the inclination angle of the inclined agitator blades is 40-50°, and the inclined agitator blades are rectangular blades with a length of L and satisfying πL. 2 = (50-70%)S4, where S4 is the cross-sectional area of ​​the storage tank. Preferably, πL 2 = (50-55%)S4.

[0176] For example, the inclined blade agitator includes 2, 3 or 4 agitators, each agitator including at least two inclined agitator blades, for example, each agitator including 3 or 4 inclined agitator blades.

[0177] Preferably, the ammonia inlet 22 is located in the lower 1 / 5 to 2 / 5 height range of the storage tank, that is, in the area between 1 / 5 and 2 / 5 height from the bottom of the storage tank upwards.

[0178] A polymerization liquid inlet 23 is provided at the upper part or top of the storage tank, and a polymerization liquid outlet 24 is provided at the lower part or bottom of the storage tank; the top of the shaft 21b of the inclined blade agitator is driven by a first motor 25.

[0179] (3) Polymerization apparatus:

[0180] The polymerization apparatus 300 includes a polymerization reactor and a stirring device 31 disposed inside the polymerization reactor. The stirring device 31 is selected from a ribbon agitator or a wall scraper agitator.

[0181] For a ribbon agitator, the following conditions must be met: S1 = (50-70%)S2, S1 = Π×(1 / 2D1) 2 D1 is the outer diameter of the helical ribbon, and S2 is the inner cross-sectional area of ​​the polymerization reactor. For example, S1 / S2 = 55%, 60%, and 65%.

[0182] For wall-scraping agitators, the following condition must be met: L≤10mm, where L represents the gap between the wall-scraping component (such as a scraper or blade) of the wall-scraping agitator and the inner wall of the polymerization reactor.

[0183] The polymerization apparatus 300 has an inert gas inlet 32 ​​on one side of its top and an inert gas outlet 33 on the other side. Preferably, both the inert gas inlet 32 ​​and the inert gas outlet 33 are located within 1 / 10 to 1 / 5 of the height of the polymerization apparatus from the top downwards. The stirring device 31 is driven by a second motor 34.

[0184] In some embodiments, the polymerization apparatus further includes a real-time viscosity monitoring device C, which includes a reflux pipeline with both ends connected to the interior of the polymerization reactor. An online pressure-viscosity converter 35 is installed on the reflux pipeline. The online pressure-viscosity converter includes a pressure detector and a processor. The pressure detector is located at a fixed position on the reflux pipeline and is used to collect the pressure signal of the polymerization liquid in the pipeline in real time. The pressure detector is connected to the processor via a line, and the processor is used to convert the collected pressure signal into a viscosity value. Figure 4 In this context, T represents the temperature monitoring component, and P represents the pressure monitoring component.

[0185] Furthermore, the processor of the real-time viscosity detection device C is connected to a display located outside the polymerization device via a line. After the processor converts the collected pressure signal into a viscosity value, it transmits the data to the display via the line, thereby displaying the viscosity of the polymerization liquid in real time.

[0186] Preferably, a constant-speed gear pump 36 is installed on the return pipeline, and a circulating water system is installed outside the return pipeline. For example, the circulating water system is a water tank, with constant-temperature circulating water entering from one side and exiting from the other side. Exemplarily, the constant-temperature circulating water enters the water tank from the circulating water inlet 37 at the bottom and exits from the circulating water outlet 38 at the top. The constant-speed gear pump and the circulating water system ensure that the temperature and flow rate of the polymer liquid fluid in the return pipeline remain constant.

The debonding device 100 includes a tank A and multiple perforated baffles 11 arranged in the tank A along the horizontal direction (i.e., perpendicular to the tank axis). The multiple perforated baffles are arranged in parallel layers at equal intervals from top to bottom along the tank axis. Each layer of perforated baffle includes a fixed end on one side and a suspended end on the other side. The fixed end is fixed to the inner wall of the tank, and the suspended end on the other side extends freely. The suspended end of one layer of perforated baffle is located on one side of the tank axis, and the suspended ends of adjacent layers of perforated baffle are located on the other side of the tank axis. The suspended ends of the multiple layers of perforated baffles form an alternating staggered layout in space.

[0192] Each layer of perforated baffles occupies 75% of the cross-sectional area of ​​the tank at that location, with the remaining 25% serving as a smooth flow channel for the polymer liquid. The perforations of adjacent layers of perforated baffles are distributed in an alternating staggered pattern, with a misalignment distance of 10 mm between the centers of corresponding perforations in adjacent layers. The perforation diameter of each layer of perforated baffles is 1.0 mm, the spacing between perforations is 20 mm, and the perforations are arranged in a ring array. The thickness of each layer of perforated baffles is 6 mm.

[0193] Inside tank A, the distance between the first layer of perforated baffles and the last layer of perforated baffles accounts for 1 / 2 of the total height of the tank. A polymer liquid inlet 12 is provided at the top of tank A. A perforated distribution plate 13 is provided between the polymer liquid inlet 12 and the adjacent first layer of perforated baffles, and the distribution plate 13 is arranged parallel to the first layer of perforated baffles. The area ratio of the distribution plate 13 to the first layer of perforated baffles is 30%. The ratio of the distance between the upper surface of the distribution plate 13 and the lower end of the polymer liquid inlet 12 to the distance between the lower end of the polymer liquid inlet 12 and the upper surface of the first layer of perforated baffles is 50%.

[0194] A solvent vapor inlet is provided at the lower part of tank A. The monomer removal device also includes a solvent vaporizer B. The top of the solvent vaporizer B is connected to the solvent vapor inlet via a pipeline. A solvent inlet 14 is provided at the bottom of the solvent vaporizer B. A coil 15 is provided inside the solvent vaporizer B. One end of the coil 15 is connected to the coil inlet 15a located at the upper part of the solvent vaporizer, and the other end of the coil 15 is connected to the coil outlet 15b located at the lower part of the solvent vaporizer. A polymerization liquid outlet 18 is provided at the bottom of tank A. The solvent is heated and vaporized into solvent vapor 16 through the solvent vaporizer B and enters the storage tank from the solvent vapor inlet. A vacuum port 17 is provided at the upper part of tank A. The monomer removal device also includes a liquid ring vacuum jet device, which is connected to the vacuum port 17 via a pipeline, thereby providing a stable negative pressure inside tank A in the monomer removal device and discharging the solvent vapor carrying the monomer.

[0195] Example 2:

[0196] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the area of ​​each layer of perforated baffles accounts for 85% of the cross-sectional area of ​​the tank at that layer, with the remaining 15% serving as a smooth channel for the flow of polymer liquid; the misalignment distance between the centers of corresponding holes in adjacent layers is 20mm; within tank A, the distance between the first layer of perforated baffles and the last layer of perforated baffles accounts for 70% of the total height of the tank; the area ratio of the distribution plate 13 to the first layer of perforated baffles is 50%, and the ratio of the distance between the upper surface of the distribution plate 13 and the lower end of the polymer liquid inlet 12 to the distance between the lower end of the polymer liquid inlet 12 and the upper surface of the first layer of perforated baffles is 30%.

[0197] Example 3:

[0198] This embodiment provides a method for preparing a binary copolyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber spinning solution, including the following steps:

[0200] Acrylonitrile, itaconic acid, and dimethyl sulfoxide were added to the polymerization apparatus. The materials in the polymerization apparatus were stirred by a wall-scraping agitator with a height of L = 10 mm, a stirring speed of 20 rpm, and a stirring time of 60 min. The liquid level h in the polymerization apparatus accounted for 80% of the total height H of the polymerization apparatus.

[0201] When the material temperature difference is ≤1℃, when the temperature is raised to 54℃, a portion of the initiator is added first, with the initiator accounting for 60% of the total initiator. The material viscosity is monitored in real time. When the material viscosity reaches the first viscosity threshold of 250P, the material is heated to the target temperature of 64℃, and the remaining 40% of the initiator is added. When the material viscosity reaches the second viscosity threshold of 620P, the reaction is terminated. The polymerization is carried out under nitrogen protection, with a nitrogen flow rate of 50L / h and a pressure of 0.1MPa. During the polymerization, the stirring speed is 30rpm. The molecular weight and PDI of the acrylonitrile-based polymer solution obtained after polymerization are shown in Table 1, which meet the target molecular weight.

[0202] S2. The acrylonitrile-based polymer solution meeting the target molecular weight undergoes a demonolysis treatment. In this treatment, the polymer solution enters from the top of the demonolysis device in Example 1 and is evenly distributed on the first perforated partition plate via a porous distribution system. It then sequentially passes through staggered second to fifth perforated partition plates, exchanging gas with the counter-current solvent vapor. At each perforated partition plate, the polymer solution is divided into two parts: one part flows through the holes in the perforated partition plate to the next perforated partition plate or the polymer solution collection area, with the exit positions of the holes on adjacent perforated partition plates differing; the other part flows from the suspended end on the side of the partition plate to the next perforated partition plate or the polymer solution collection area.

The solvent vapor inlet flow rate is 80 L / h, and the solvent vapor pressure is 0.5 MPa.

[0203] S3: Ammonia bubbling method is used to introduce ammonia gas into the polymer solution after monomer removal for ammoniation treatment. Specifically, the temperature of the polymer solution in the storage tank is adjusted to 60℃, and then ammonia gas is introduced from the lower 1 / 5 of the tank. During the ammoniation process, the temperature is controlled at 60℃, the slight positive pressure is 100 Pa, and a slanted blade agitator is used for stirring at a speed of 55 r / min. The slanted blade agitator includes 3 agitators, each agitator including 3 rectangular slanted blades with an inclination angle of 35°, and their length is L and satisfies πL. 2 =70%×S4, where S4 is the cross-sectional area of ​​the storage tank; the flow rate of the polymer liquid is Q3 = 3 m3 / h, and the required amount of ammonia gas is calculated based on the amount of ammonia gas introduced into each 1 kg of polymer liquid at a rate of 4.0 mg.
