Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of polyacrylonitrile fibers, and particularly relates to the drying densification process of polyacrylonitrile fibers. Specifically, it relates to a dried and densified polyacrylonitrile fiber, a method for drying and densifying the same, and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Polyacrylonitrile precursor is the basis for preparing polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fibers and is the key to preparing high-performance carbon fibers. High-quality carbon fiber precursor is the basis for preparing high-performance carbon fibers. How to prepare high-quality carbon fiber precursor has always been the focus and difficulty in the process of carbon fiber preparation. The preparation process of carbon fiber precursor can be divided into wet spinning and dry-jet wet spinning according to different spinning processes. Wet spinning has the advantages of less residual fiber solvent, easy process control, deep surface grooves of the prepared carbon fiber and good bonding performance with composites, and is one of the important methods for preparing carbon fiber precursor.
[0003] The preparation process of polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber precursor usually includes processes such as coagulation and fiber formation (wet spinning or dry-jet wet spinning method), water washing, hot water drawing, oiling, drying densification, and winding. The preparation of high-performance carbon fiber precursor also requires processes such as steam drawing and heat setting after drying densification. Polyacrylonitrile is an insulating material with a volume resistivity of 10 13 -10 14 Ω·cm, which is prone to generating static electricity. The fiber has poor bundle property and is easy to adhere to the roller and entangle, resulting in poor production stability. At the same time, static electricity is also likely to cause the fiber to adsorb dust in the air or dirt on the roller, resulting in an increase in surface defects of the fiber, which is not conducive to improving the mechanical properties of the fiber. Therefore, the control of static electricity during the fiber running process is crucial for the preparation process of carbon fiber precursor.
[0004] The drying densification process is a key process in the preparation process of carbon fiber precursor. In this process, the water in the fiber with a porous gel network gradually is removed, and under the action of shrinkage force and capillary attraction, the pores between the fibrils are merged or eliminated. Hot air drying and hot roller drying are two commonly used drying densification methods in the industrial production of polyacrylonitrile precursor. In the hot air drying process, the fiber continuously passes through a hot air device for heat transfer through hot air; in the hot roller drying densification process, the fiber continuously passes through multiple hot rollers with the same rotation speed for heat transfer through contact.
[0005] During the hot air drying process, there is friction between the tows. During the hot roller drying process, there is friction between the fibers and the hot roller. Especially after the moisture is removed, the conductivity of the fibers deteriorates further, generating strong static electricity (water is an excellent antistatic agent. After the moisture is removed, the conductive effect of water weakens). After the fibers are dried and densified, they can be directly wound up after cooling in the air for use as carbon fiber precursor filaments; they can also be further drawn finer through processes such as steam drawing after cooling in the air to prepare high-performance carbon fiber precursor filaments. The static electricity characteristics of the fibers during the cooling process are crucial for the amount of impurities adsorbed from the air, which in turn affects the mechanical properties of the carbon fibers. In severe cases, it can even cause the tow to wind around the roller and affect fiber production. For polyacrylonitrile fibers prepared by wet spinning, the significantly grooved surface structure is more likely to generate strong static electricity during processing. Therefore, it is particularly important to select and control the static electricity characteristics during the cooling process of wet-spun polyacrylonitrile fibers.
[0006] The control of static electricity in polyacrylonitrile fibers usually adopts methods such as surface coating with sizing agents or antistatic agents (Synthetic Fibers, Vol. 02, No. 02, 2002, pp. 34 - 36), adding conductive materials (Synthetic Fibers, Vol. 43, No. 04, 2014, pp. 21 - 24), and installing antistatic elimination devices (China Building Materials Science & Technology, Vol. 28, No. 03, 2019, pp. 5 - 6) to improve. However, some of the above methods will introduce additional impurities that cannot be oxidized and carbonized in the polyacrylonitrile fibers, resulting in a decrease in the performance of the carbon fibers or the inability to prepare carbon fibers, and are not suitable for the production of polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber precursor filaments. Patent JP6520787B2 proposes to control the absolute humidity of the environment at 12 g / m 3 or more in a high humidity environment to reduce or prevent the occurrence of reduced bundling and fuzzing. Static electricity generation can be reduced by moisture, but it additionally increases energy consumption, and long-term use of the equipment in a high humidity environment will accelerate equipment corrosion, resulting in an increase in equipment failure rate; when the tow travels in a high humidity environment, the moisture content of the fibers increases significantly, which will cause additional defects during the oxidation process; and it is difficult to ensure the humidity at the outlet of the fibers due to exhaust air or temperature at the outlet of the drying and densification process. The above existing technologies all ignore the inevitability of static electricity generation during the process and only start from eliminating static electricity. Either they are not applicable to the preparation process of carbon fiber precursor filaments, or they add additional facilities, increasing production costs and subsequent maintenance costs.
[0007] In view of this, the present invention is specifically proposed. Summary of the Invention
[0008] In order to overcome the problems existing in the prior art, namely, the fibers are prone to winding around the rollers due to static electricity during the cooling process after the drying densification of polyacrylonitrile fibers, and the poor strength of carbon fibers when applied to carbon fibers, the present invention provides a dried and densified polyacrylonitrile fiber, its drying densification method and application. By adopting the solution of the present invention, the winding frequency caused by static electricity during the preparation of the raw yarn is below 10 times per month. When the dried and densified fibers are applied to carbon fibers, the tensile strength of the carbon fibers can reach 6.20 GPa, achieving good technical effects.
[0009] One of the purposes of the present invention is to provide a dried and densified polyacrylonitrile fiber. By using in-situ testing of the static voltage, the surface voltage and temperature of the polyacrylonitrile fiber satisfy formula (1):
[0010] S = aT + b, formula (1); where a = 6 - 70, b = -500 - -5660, where T = 50 - 90 °C (preferably 55 - 80 °C), and S is the surface voltage.
[0011] For example, a = 6, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65 or 70, b = -500, -1000, -1500, -2000, -2500, -3000, -3500, -4000, -4500, -5000, -5500 or -5650, T = 50 °C, 55 °C, 60 °C, 65 °C, 70 °C, 75 °C, 80 °C, 85 °C or 90 °C.
[0012] The static electricity of polyacrylonitrile fibers is mainly formed by the re - arrangement of electrons due to the interfacial polarization phenomenon generated by the friction between fibers and between fibers and other substances (roller surface, air). The high volume resistance of polyacrylonitrile fibers themselves makes the generation of static electricity inevitable. During the cooling process of polyacrylonitrile fibers, radial shrinkage of the fibers occurs, resulting in molecular friction inside the fibers, and thus generating static electricity. The fiber cooling process is an inevitable process during the preparation of polyacrylonitrile fibers and their pre - oxidized fibers. In actual production, it is impossible to achieve continuous winding of fibers at the same temperature. The static electricity caused by fiber cooling can cause the fibers to adsorb impurities in the environment, increasing the surface defects of the fibers themselves, and thus reducing the fiber strength; at the same time, the fibers are more likely to adsorb onto the rollers during the processing, causing the fibers to wind around the rollers and break, affecting the stability of production.
[0013] During the cooling process of the fiber, static electricity is inevitable. However, if the absolute value of the surface voltage is too high, it is more likely to adsorb impurities in the environment. In the present invention, the relationship between the surface voltage and temperature of the polyacrylonitrile fiber during the cooling process and the static electricity range during the cooling process enable the fiber to achieve high strength even if it adsorbs impurities in the air, and at the same time, it is not easy for the tow to wind around the roll; the reason is that for the fiber with this property, the molecular friction inside the fiber is small, and static electricity is not likely to accumulate. Since the absolute value of the overall voltage is controlled, obvious winding around the roll will not occur.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the fineness of the single filament of the polyacrylonitrile fiber is 0.5 to 3.0 dtex, preferably 1.0 to 3.0 dtex, such as 0.5 dtex, 1 dtex, 1.5 dtex, 2 dtex, 2.5 dtex or 3 dtex.
[0015] The fineness of the fiber is closely related to the specific surface area of the fiber. A higher fineness can reduce the specific surface area of the fiber, reducing the amount of environmental impurities adsorbed per unit volume, but it will cause a greater difference in the skin-core structure of the polyacrylonitrile fiber during subsequent oxidation and carbonization processes, resulting in a decrease in the strength of the fiber. The fineness of the polyacrylonitrile fiber in the present invention can simultaneously achieve a better balance between the static electricity due to its impurity adsorption amount and the skin-core structure of the fiber.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the oil content of the polyacrylonitrile fiber is 0.1 to 4 wt%, preferably 0.4 to 2.5 wt%, such as 0.1 wt%, 0.5 wt%, 1 wt%, 1.5 wt%, 2 wt%, 2.5 wt%, 3 wt%, 3.5 wt% or 4 wt%.
[0017] The fiber oil contains components such as lubricants and antistatic agents, which are beneficial to alleviating the generation of static electricity. An excessively high oil content of the fiber will increase the production cost on the one hand, and at the same time, the excessive oil agent will penetrate into the fiber interior, resulting in a large number of defects during the removal of the oil agent during oxidation and carbonization. An excessively low oil content of the fiber cannot effectively alleviate the generation of static electricity. The present invention controls the oil content of the polyacrylonitrile fiber within a more appropriate range, which can simultaneously alleviate static electricity and avoid a decrease in fiber strength.
[0018] In a preferred embodiment, the surface voltage of the polyacrylonitrile fiber is -10 to -2500, preferably -10 to -2000, such as -10, -50, -100, -200, -500, -800, -1000, -1200, -1500, -1800 or -2000.
[0019] A second object of the present invention is to provide a method for drying and densifying polyacrylonitrile fibers, preferably for preparing the polyacrylonitrile fibers described in the first object of the present invention. The preparation method includes: drying and densifying the polyacrylonitrile raw filaments in one or more temperature zones. The first temperature zone includes at least 3 hot rollers, and each of the optional remaining temperature zones (except the first temperature zone) independently includes at least 1 hot roller. Among them, the width of the fiber bundle on the roller surfaces of the first 3 hot rollers in the first temperature zone is controlled to gradually decrease. Among them, the width of the fiber bundle on the roller surface of the first hot roller in the first temperature zone is not controlled, but the width of the fiber bundle on the roller surfaces of the 2nd to 3rd hot rollers in the first temperature zone is controlled.
[0020] During the drying and densifying process, the diffusion processes of heat and moisture occur simultaneously, which is a key process in the preparation of carbon fiber precursor filaments. In the initial stage of drying, the moisture content of the fiber is relatively high, and water diffuses out from the inside of the filament bundle, which can form a protective substance between the fiber surface and the roller surface. Through the scheme of gradually shrinking the width of the filament bundle on the first three rollers, the fiber dehydrates faster in the initial stage with a high moisture content. As the moisture is removed, the protective effect of water gradually becomes smaller. At this time, the width of the fiber is reduced to reduce the friction between the filament bundle and the roller surface, reduce the generation of static electricity on the fiber surface, and lower the initial surface voltage of the fiber, so as to obtain polyacrylonitrile fibers with the characteristics of cooling static electricity.
[0021] In a preferred embodiment, the drying and densifying is carried out in 1 to 5 (for example, one or 2 to 5) temperature zones, for example, in 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 temperature zones.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the temperature of each temperature zone is independently controlled to be 90 to 160 °C, for example, 90 °C, 100 °C, 110 °C, 120 °C, 130 °C, 140 °C, 150 °C or 160 °C.
[0025] In a further preferred embodiment, when there are multiple temperature zones, in the drying order, the temperature of each temperature zone gradually increases, for example, gradient heating.
[0026] Among them, when there are multiple temperature zones, the temperature of the first temperature zone is not lower than 90 °C, and the temperature of the last temperature zone is not higher than 160 °C.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, the width of the fiber tow on the second hot roller surface in the first temperature zone is controlled as follows: the width of the fiber tow on the second hot roller surface is not less than 0.95 times the width on the first hot roller surface.
[0029] In a further preferred embodiment, the width of the fiber tow on the second hot roller surface in the first temperature zone is controlled as follows: the width of the fiber tow on the second hot roller surface is 0.95 - 1.0 times the width on the first hot roller surface and preferably does not include 1.0 times, for example, 0.95 times, 0.96 times, 0.97 times, 0.98 times or 0.99 times.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the width of the fiber tow on the third hot roller surface in the first temperature zone is controlled as follows: the width of the fiber tow on the third hot roller surface is not less than 0.8 times the width on the first hot roller surface.
[0031] In a further preferred embodiment, the width of the fiber tow on the first three hot roller surfaces in the first temperature zone is controlled as follows: the width of the fiber tow on the third hot roller surface is 0.8 - 0.98 times the width on the first hot roller surface, such as 0.8 times, 0.82 times, 0.84 times, 0.86 times, 0.88 times, 0.90 times, 0.92 times, 0.94 times, 0.96 times or 0.98 times.
[0032] No special control is performed on the roller surfaces after the fourth one in the first temperature zone, and it is preferably substantially the same as the width of the fiber tow on the third roller surface in the first temperature zone.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the width of the fiber tow on the hot roller surface is controlled by at least one of the following methods: using a wire blocking rod, a wire guiding wheel, or high-pressure air blowing.
[0034] In the present invention, the width of the fiber tow on the first hot roller surface in the first temperature zone is not controlled. However, the width of the fiber tow on the second and third hot roller surfaces in the first temperature zone is controlled within the above-defined range; meanwhile, the width of the fiber tow on the remaining hot rollers (starting from the fourth one) in the first temperature zone is not controlled, and the width of the fiber tow on the hot roller surfaces in the remaining temperature zones (except the first temperature zone) is not controlled.
