Existing self-healing materials (such as dynamic bond cross-linked TPU) can repair microcracks, but their puncture resistance is insufficient. The current technical difficulties are:
[0003] 1. Insufficient interface bonding strength: metal and polymer materials are prone to delamination due to differences in thermal expansion coefficients;

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0050] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, if terms such as "connection" are used to indicate the connection relationship between components, such terms should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral one; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two components or the interaction relationship between two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0051] The puncture-resistant and self-healing composite material provided by the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, includes: a gradient modulus three-layer structure, which includes an outer layer 1, an intermediate layer 2, and an inner layer 3, where:
[0052] The outer layer 1 is a self-healing thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) containing dynamic bonds, with a modulus of 1 - 2 GPa;
[0053] The intermediate layer 2 is a titanium alloy woven mesh with surface-etched micro-grooves, with a modulus of 110 GPa;
[0054] The inner layer 3 is an epoxy resin-modified TPU adhesive layer containing a silane coupling agent;
[0055] The wire diameter of the titanium alloy woven mesh is 0.08 mm, and the weaving density is 60×60 strands / cm 2 , and the surface is treated by plasma to generate hydroxyl (-OH) groups, and mechanical interlocking grooves with a width of 20 μm and a depth of 5 μm are formed by laser etching;
[0056] The outer layer 1, the intermediate layer 2, and the inner layer 3 are combined through mechanical interlocking and Si-O-Ti covalent bonds, and the total thickness is 0.25 - 0.3 mm.
[0057] For the puncture-resistant and self-healing composite material provided by the above solution, through the gradient modulus design (outer layer 1 - 2 GPa, middle layer 110 GPa, inner layer 5 - 8 GPa), the impact energy is gradually transferred from the viscoelastic dissipation of the flexible outer layer → the plastic deformation of the rigid titanium mesh → the stable interface of the inner layer, synergistically improving the puncture resistance (not penetrated by 50 J) and the self-healing efficiency (airtightness recovery ≥ 95%). The plasma treatment and laser etching grooves (width 20 μm, depth 5 μm) on the surface of the titanium mesh form multi-scale mechanical interlocking, combined with Si-O-Ti covalent bonds, so that the interface peeling strength ≥ 12 N / cm, solving the delamination problem of traditional materials.
[0058] Among them, the dynamic bonds in the outer self-healing TPU are selected from Diels-Alder (DA) bonds or ureidopyrimidinone (UPy) hydrogen bonds, and 0.1-0.5 wt% of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles are added as a photothermal catalyst. The ZnO nanoparticles (0.1-0.5 wt%) as a photothermal catalyst have a photothermal conversion efficiency ≥40% under 808 nm near-infrared light irradiation, significantly accelerating the dynamic exchange of DA bonds, shortening the repair time from 24 h (at room temperature) to 2 h, and at the same time not affecting the flexibility of the TPU layer.
[0059] Among them, the epoxy resin-modified TPU in the inner bonding layer 3 contains 1-2 wt% of silane coupling agent KH-550, and forms Si-O-Ti covalent bonds with the intermediate layer titanium mesh through a vacuum hot pressing process. The 1-2 wt% KH-550 coupling agent in the epoxy resin-modified TPU forms Si-O-Ti covalent bonds with the -OH groups of the titanium mesh through vacuum hot pressing (80 °C / 5 MPa), combined with mechanical interlocking, increasing the interfacial bonding strength by 30%, and the retention rate of the peel strength after hygrothermal aging ≥90%, avoiding adhesive failure caused by hydrolysis.
[0060] Among them, the titanium alloy woven mesh is replaced with a Z-shaped woven structure or an I-shaped 3D knitted structure filled with carbon fiber sheets. The warp and weft density of the Z-shaped weaving is 60×60 per cm 2 , and the cavity interval of the I-shaped 3D knitting is 1.5-4 cm. The Z-shaped weaving (warp and weft angle 110°-120°) enhances the shear strength by 25% through fiber interlacing; the I-shaped 3D knitting cavity (interval 1.5-4 cm) is filled with carbon fiber sheets, improving the multi-directional impact resistance, and at the same time reducing the areal density of the material by 10%-15%.
[0061] The present invention also provides a preparation method of a puncture-proof self-healing composite material, including the following steps:
[0062] a) Perform plasma treatment on the titanium alloy wire, with parameters of argon (Ar) atmosphere, power 100 W, and time 5 minutes, and then use a nanosecond pulsed laser (wavelength 1064 nm, energy density 2 J / cm 2 ) to etch surface grooves;
[0063] b) Double-sided coat the pretreated titanium mesh with molten self-healing TPU at 180 °C, and cold press and shape it under a pressure of 10 MPa to below 40 °C;
[0064] c) Composite the inner bonding layer and the intermediate layer through a vacuum hot pressing process, with parameters of 80 °C, 5 MPa, and holding pressure for 10 minutes.
[0065] The preparation method of the puncture-resistant self-healing composite material uses plasma treatment (Ar / 100W / 5min) to generate -OH groups, combined with nanosecond laser etching (1064nm / 2J / cm 2 ), control the surface roughness Ra < 1μm, avoid embrittlement of the titanium mesh (treatment depth ≤ 50nm), ensure the uniformity of the groove morphology, and greatly improve the TPU filling rate.
[0066] Among them, the laser etching uses a multi-beam parallel system, the etching speed ≥ 0.5m / min, and the distance between the titanium mesh conveyor belt and the laser head is 10cm. The multi-beam parallel (≥6 heads) laser etching system increases the single etching speed from 0.2m / s to ≥ 0.5m / min, and the production efficiency is increased by 3 times, and the groove size error < ±2μm, meeting the requirements of large-scale production.
[0067] Among them, the surface roughness Ra of the titanium alloy woven mesh < 1μm, and the plasma treatment depth ≤ 50nm to avoid embrittlement of the titanium mesh. The surface roughness Ra of the titanium mesh < 1μm (Ra = 1.2μm after plasma treatment), optimize the melt fluidity of TPU, make the groove filling depth ≥ 5μm, and significantly improve the mechanical interlocking strength.
[0068] Among them, 0.3wt% of the hydrophobic agent KH-570 is added to the inner layer 3 adhesive layer, so that the peel strength retention rate of the material is ≥ 90% after aging at 85℃ / 85% relative humidity (RH) for 500 hours. 0.3wt% of the KH-570 hydrophobic agent is added to the inner layer, so that the contact angle of the material ≥ 110°, block the intrusion of water molecules into the interface, and the peel strength retention rate after hygrothermal aging (85℃ / 85%RH, 500h) is increased from 50% to ≥ 90%.
[0069] Among them, the melt index (MFI) of the outer layer 1 self-healing TPU is 15g / 10min, and the internal stress is controlled by water cooling during the cold pressing and shaping process. The U melt index MFI = 15g / 10min (melted at 180℃), combined with 10MPa cold pressing and shaping and water cooling process (cooled to 30℃), eliminate the internal stress, make the layer thickness error ≤ ±0.01mm, and avoid performance fluctuations caused by thermal degradation.
[0070] Among them, the puncture-resistant self-healing composite material is not penetrated under 50J impact energy (NIJ0115.00 standard), and the airtightness recovery rate is ≥ 95% after 24 hours at room temperature or 2 hours of near-infrared light irradiation. Through the viscoelastic dissipation of the outer layer TPU (loss factor tanδ = 0.3) and the plastic deformation of the titanium mesh (energy absorption 70%), it is not penetrated under 50J impact (NIJ0115.00 standard); after the UPy hydrogen bond is repaired at room temperature or the DA bond is repaired by photothermal, the nitrogen leakage rate < 5×10 -6 mbar·L / s, meeting the airtightness requirements of flexible electronic packaging.
