Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of liquid-cooled cables, and in particular to a preparation method and application of a cable for a liquid-cooled high-power charging pile. Background Art

[0002] Liquid-cooled high-power charging pile cables have continuously improved their heat dissipation efficiency and safety performance under the optimization of heat pipe and heat lock layer technology to meet the needs of high-power charging. In the early days, copper and aluminum heat pipes and foam and silicone insulation layers were used for thermal management, but the heat dissipation effect was limited. With the increase in charging power, composite heat pipes and microchannel liquid cooling technology were gradually introduced to improve heat exchange efficiency. At present, nano-thermal conductive materials and multi-channel composite materials are used to enable cables to still dissipate heat efficiently in high-voltage charging environments above 800V. At the same time, the heat lock layer has developed from basic foam insulation to halogen-free and low-smoke composite materials to improve high temperature resistance and safety. At present, ceramic fiber and carbon fiber composite materials combined with intelligent temperature control systems can control temperature more accurately and prevent overheating risks. Overall, the continuous optimization of heat pipes and heat lock layers makes liquid-cooled cables safer and more efficient, providing guarantees for the development of ultra-high power charging technology.

[0003] The prior art CN118782313A discloses a wear-resistant liquid-cooled cable with an ultra-large current load for new energy use, comprising a plurality of conductors, wherein an insulating layer, a shielding layer and an outer sheath layer are sequentially arranged on the outside of the plurality of conductors, and a heat exchange layer composed of a plurality of heat exchange tubes is arranged between the shielding layer and the outer sheath layer, wherein the plurality of heat exchange tubes are all arranged in a spiral shape. The heat exchange performance inside the cable is improved by preparing the insulating layer using a heat-conductive filler, and the thermal insulation and wear resistance of the cable outer sheath layer is improved by preparing the cable outer sheath layer by synthesizing a composite polyolefin, thereby obtaining a liquid-cooled cable with high heat exchange efficiency inside, wear resistance outside and suitable for high temperature.

[0004] However, the above patent improves the heat exchange efficiency of the liquid-cooled cable by improving the thermal conductivity of the insulation layer and the thermal insulation of the outer sheath layer. However, the outer sheath layer is in direct contact with the heat pipe. During the combustion process, the heat and flame generated will be quickly transferred to the heat exchange layer, causing the liquid-cooled cable to burn rapidly. Because the structure does not protect the heat exchange layer, the organic coolant that overflows when the cooling pipe ruptures may cause secondary combustion. Therefore, the fire resistance and flame retardant properties of the cable need to be further improved. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a preparation method and application of a cable for a liquid-cooled high-power charging pile, which is used to solve the technical problem in the prior art that the flame retardancy and fire resistance of liquid-cooled cables need to be further improved.

Transfer the pyrolytic graphite to a heated vacuum furnace at 2800-3100°C, introduce nitrogen, maintain the internal pressure of the heated vacuum furnace at 6-8 MPa, hold the temperature for 40-60 minutes, and then cool it to room temperature at a cooling rate of 3-4 min°C / min to obtain annealed graphite;

[0023] The reaction principle for preparing thermally conductive fillers is as follows: through toluene pyrolysis and annealing treatment, the hexagonal lattice of graphite is made more complete and defects and vacancies are reduced. After plasma modification, active functional groups are generated in the graphite structure, and under alkaline conditions, the siloxane chain segments of the silane coupling agent are hydrolyzed, thereby cross-linking on the surface of the graphite structure, thereby preparing a thermally conductive filler.

[0024] Furthermore, in step A3, the plasma modification operation is as follows: the annealed graphite is evenly coated on a quartz wafer and then transferred to a plasma treatment device, the vacuum pump is turned on to extract the chamber gas until the vacuum degree is less than 10 mTorr, the gas control system is turned on, and a mixed gas with a volume ratio of argon and oxygen of 4:1 is introduced, the instrument power is set to 50-80 W, the mixed gas flow rate is 100-150 sccm, and the pressure is 100-150 mTorr, the radio frequency power supply is turned on, and after treating at room temperature for 3-5 minutes, the radio frequency power supply is turned off and argon is purged for 1-2 minutes to obtain activated annealed graphite;

[0025] Furthermore, in step A4, the ratio of activated annealed graphite, ethanol, saturated sodium hydroxide solution, deionized water and 3-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)propyltrimethoxysilane is 8-10g:2-3g:2-3mL:40-60mL:3-5g, and the post-treatment includes: after the reaction is completed, the temperature of the reactor is lowered to room temperature, the reaction liquid is filtered to collect the filter cake, the filter cake is washed with ethanol 3-5 times, and the filter cake is transferred to a vacuum drying oven and vacuum dried to constant weight to obtain a thermally conductive filler.

[0026] Furthermore, the preparation method of the composite fiber cloth comprises the following steps:

[0027] B1. Aluminum chloride hexahydrate, methyl orthosilicate, and deionized water are added to a reactor, stirred at room temperature for 10-15 minutes, and then a hydrolysis aid and modified glass fiber are added to the reactor, and stirring is continued for 30-40 minutes to obtain a glass fiber gel;

[0028] B2. Transfer the glass fiber gel to a mold, take an aluminum foil of the same shape and size as the mold, and coat one side of the aluminum foil with 8-10 wt% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution. Then, attach the coated side of the aluminum foil to the surface of the glass fiber gel. Treat the mold at a constant temperature of 30-50°C for 40-60 minutes, and then post-treat to obtain a composite fiber cloth.

[0029] The reaction principle for preparing the composite fiber cloth is as follows: under alkaline conditions, methyl orthosilicate, aluminum isopropoxide and aluminum chloride hexahydrate are hydrolyzed to produce a colloidal structure, and the modified glass fiber is cross-linked with the colloidal structure through its surface-modified siloxane structure to obtain a glass fiber gel, and hydrolysis cross-linking is formed through the active structure on the gel surface and the activated aluminum foil surface to finally prepare the composite fiber cloth.

[0030] Furthermore, in step B1, the amount ratio of aluminum chloride hexahydrate, methyl orthosilicate, deionized water, auxiliary agent and modified glass fiber is 4-5g:6-8g:40-50mL:12-16mL:8-10g, the hydrolysis aid is aluminum isopropoxide, ethanol and sodium hydroxide powder in the amount ratio of 2-3g:10-12mL:1-2g, and the stirring rate of the reactor is 60-80rpm;

[0031] Furthermore, in step B2, post-processing includes: transferring the mold to a vacuum drying oven at a temperature of 80-100° C., vacuum drying until no liquid is extracted, and demolding to obtain the composite fiber cloth.

[0032] Furthermore, the preparation method of the modified glass fiber comprises the following steps:

[0033] C1. Add glass fiber and 3-5 wt% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution into a reactor and stir. Raise the temperature of the reactor to 60-80°C, keep the temperature for 1-2 hours, and perform post-processing to obtain etched fiber.

[0035] The reaction principle for preparing modified glass fiber is: under low alkaline conditions, active sites such as hydroxyl groups are formed on the surface of the glass fiber, and further modification with a silane coupling agent forms a siloxane structure on the surface of the fiber structure, ultimately preparing modified glass fiber.

[0036] Furthermore, in step C1, the stirring rate of the reactor is 60-80 rpm, the amount ratio of the glass fiber and the 3-5 wt% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution is 1-2 g: 10-15 mL, and the post-treatment includes: after the reaction is completed, the temperature of the reactor is lowered to room temperature, the reaction liquid is filtered to collect the filter cake, the filter cake is washed with ethanol 3-5 times, and the filter cake is transferred to a vacuum drying oven and vacuum dried to constant weight to obtain the etched fiber;

[0038] The invention discloses an application of a cable for a liquid-cooled high-power charging pile. The liquid-cooled cable prepared by the preparation method of the cable for a liquid-cooled high-power charging pile is applied to electric vehicle fast charging piles and electric commercial vehicle charging.

[0039] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0040] 1. The liquid-cooled cable prepared in the present invention uses the modified heat-conducting pipe with high internal thermal conductivity and the heat-locking composite fiber cloth to carry away the heat generated by the core layer through the internal coolant circulation, thereby reducing the impact of internal heat on the cable life. During the combustion process, the protective layer structure generated by the decomposition of the glass fiber and silicon-aluminum structure of the composite fiber cloth at high temperature isolates the heat transfer and the spread of the flame, ensuring the structural integrity of the heat-conducting pipe. The heat of the flame is carried away by the coolant circulation, protecting the core layer and the insulation layer while avoiding the occurrence of secondary combustion caused by coolant leakage. The coordinated cooperation of the modified heat-conducting pipe and the composite fiber cloth significantly improves the fire resistance and flame retardant properties of the liquid-cooled cable, and the multiple reflection effect brought by the multi-layer structure of annealed graphite and the coordinated cooperation of the aluminum foil attached to the surface of the composite fiber cloth significantly increase the shielding performance of the cable, so that electromagnetic waves in a wider frequency range can be effectively shielded, thereby significantly improving the thermal conductivity and anti-electromagnetic interference performance of the thermal conductive filler.

[0041] 2. The present invention etches the surface of the glass fiber to significantly improve the activity of the glass fiber. On this basis, a silane coupling agent is used to modify the surface of the glass fiber, so that it participates in the hydrolysis process of aluminum chloride hexahydrate, methyl orthosilicate and aluminum isopropylate, so that the glass fiber is evenly dispersed inside the hydrolysis gel. While using the glass fiber to improve the thermal insulation performance of the composite fiber cloth, its surface is modified to reduce the damage of the fiber structure to the heat pipe. The surface of the aluminum foil is further activated with a sodium hydroxide aqueous solution. Under alkaline catalysis, the hydroxyl structure on the surface of the activated aluminum foil and the active structure on the surface of the glass fiber gel are hydrolyzed to form a stable cross-linked structure to obtain a composite fiber cloth. The composite fiber cloth locks heat inside during the operation of the cable, so that the heat generated by the core layer is evenly distributed and slowly transferred to the outer sheath, thereby reducing the negative impact of internal heat on the service life of the cable.

[0042] 3. In the present invention, toluene gas is first used to perform high-temperature pyrolysis on the graphite surface to generate active carbon atoms. The active carbon atoms fill the defects of the graphite and improve the crystallinity. Compared with direct annealing, toluene cracking provides a self-repairing mechanism, making the hexagonal lattice of the graphite more complete and reducing defects and vacancies. On this basis, annealing is performed to rearrange the carbon atoms inside the graphite. This rearrangement can significantly reduce the defects inside the material and make its structure more inclined to a highly ordered graphite sheet structure, thereby reducing phonon scattering and reducing interfacial thermal resistance, significantly improving the thermal conductivity of the thermally conductive filler. The surface-modified siloxane structure improves its dispersion performance in the composite polyvinyl chloride, and the epoxy groups distributed on the surface react with the free radicals generated during the melt extrusion of the polyvinyl chloride, so that the thermally conductive filler is stably dispersed inside the modified heat-conducting pipe.

[0177] Description: In the present invention, toluene gas is first used to perform high-temperature pyrolysis on the graphite surface to generate active carbon atoms. The active carbon atoms fill the defects of the graphite and improve the crystallinity. Compared with direct annealing, toluene cracking provides a self-repairing mechanism, making the hexagonal lattice of the graphite more complete and reducing defects and vacancies. On this basis, annealing is performed to rearrange the carbon atoms inside it. This rearrangement can significantly reduce the defects inside the material and make its structure more inclined to a highly ordered graphite sheet structure, thereby reducing phonon scattering and reducing interfacial thermal resistance, thereby significantly improving the thermal conductivity of the thermally conductive filler. The surface-modified siloxane structure improves its dispersion performance in the composite polyvinyl chloride, and the epoxy groups distributed on the surface react with the free radicals generated during the melt extrusion of polyvinyl chloride, so that the thermally conductive filler is stably dispersed inside the modified heat-conducting pipe.

[0178] Description: The present invention etches the surface of the glass fiber, thereby significantly improving the activity of the glass fiber. On this basis, a silane coupling agent is used to modify the surface of the glass fiber, so that it participates in the hydrolysis process of aluminum chloride hexahydrate, methyl orthosilicate and aluminum isopropylate, so that the glass fiber is evenly dispersed inside the hydrolysis gel. While using the glass fiber to improve the heat resistance of the composite fiber cloth, its surface is modified to reduce the damage of the fiber structure to the heat pipe. The surface of the aluminum foil is further activated by an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. Under alkaline catalysis, the hydroxyl structure on the surface of the activated aluminum foil and the active structure on the surface of the glass fiber gel are hydrolyzed to form a stable cross-linked structure to obtain a composite fiber cloth. The composite fiber cloth locks heat inside during the operation of the cable, so that the heat generated by the core layer is evenly distributed and slowly transferred to the outer sheath, thereby reducing the negative impact of internal heat on the service life of the cable.

[0179] It is explained that the liquid-cooled cable prepared in the present invention uses the modified heat-conducting pipe with high internal thermal conductivity and the heat-locking composite fiber cloth to carry away the heat generated by the core layer through the internal coolant circulation, thereby reducing the impact of internal heat on the cable life. During the combustion process, the protective layer structure generated by the decomposition of the glass fiber and silicon-aluminum structure of the composite fiber cloth at high temperature isolates the heat transfer and the spread of the flame, ensuring the structural integrity of the heat-conducting pipe, thereby carrying away the heat of the flame through the coolant circulation, protecting the core layer and the insulation layer, and avoiding the occurrence of secondary combustion caused by coolant leakage. The coordinated cooperation of the modified heat-conducting pipe and the composite fiber cloth significantly improves the fire resistance and flame retardant properties of the liquid-cooled cable, and the multiple reflection effect brought by the multi-layer structure of annealed graphite and the coordinated cooperation of the aluminum foil attached to the surface of the composite fiber cloth significantly increase the shielding performance of the cable, so that electromagnetic waves in a wider frequency range can be effectively shielded, thereby significantly improving the thermal conductivity and anti-electromagnetic interference performance of the thermal conductive filler.
