Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of phase change energy storage materials, and particularly relates to a novel double-wall material phase change elastic composite material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Phase change materials can absorb or release a large amount of latent heat during the phase change process, while their own temperature remains almost unchanged. Early research mainly focused on developing phase change materials with high phase change enthalpy and appropriate phase change temperature. For example, solid-liquid phase change materials have received extensive attention due to their large phase change enthalpy, wide temperature range, excellent thermal conductivity, etc. However, solid-liquid phase change materials have the problem of leakage. Although solid-solid phase change materials have the advantages of small volume change, no leakage and corrosion problems, they also have the limitation of low latent heat. In addition, phase change materials generally also have problems such as poor thermal conductivity and crystallization rigidity. Ordinary phase change composite materials tend to be rigid, have poor elasticity, low operability, and are difficult to adapt to complex application scenarios.
[0003] The thermal conductivity of phase change materials (such as paraffin wax, fatty acids) is usually low (0.15 - 0.3 W / m·K), resulting in poor overall thermal conductivity of the composite material. Although adding thermal conductive fillers (such as metal powders, carbon nanotubes) can improve the thermal conductivity, the problems of uneven filler dispersion or high interfacial thermal resistance are still widespread.
[0004] Chinese Patent CN117821021A discloses an organic phase change composite material and a preparation method and application thereof, specifically discloses an organic phase change composite material which includes a mixture of biochar and polyethylene glycol; the biochar is pyrolyzed from a mixture of polypropylene, plant fibers, and compatibilizer, the grafting rate of the compatibilizer is 0.6 - 1.0%, the average molecular weight of the polyethylene glycol is 1500 - 20000, and the mass ratio of the biochar to the polyethylene glycol is 3:1 - 2. Although this patent enhances the interfacial bonding by using mesoporous silica to load polyethylene glycol, it does not mention the optimization of thermal conductive fillers, and the improvement of thermal conductivity still relies on traditional methods.
[0005] Chinese Patent CN105968970A discloses a high-temperature resistant and high-adhesion cross-linked polyethylene viscoelastic composite coating and a preparation method thereof. The composite coating consists of two components, A and B. Component A includes polyethylene, initiator, grafted product, silane, elastomer, and grafting assistant, and component B includes polyethylene, nano-thermal conductive agent, dispersion lubricant, surface treatment agent, catalyst, dehydrating agent, and antioxidant. Although this patent alleviates the phase separation problem by exploring the interfacial modification technology of organic-inorganic composite phase change materials and elastomers, the long-term material stability is defective.
[0006] Chinese Patent CN117702302A discloses a liquid metal composite wire, fiber film, flexible electronic composite material based on electrospinning and their preparation methods. The liquid metal fiber composite wire is formed by electrospinning liquid metal, with a composite structure having a liquid metal core and an outer elastomer wrapping the core. The liquid metal fiber composite wire is prepared by electrospinning, and further a liquid metal fiber film with a connected three-dimensional network interlaced structure is prepared. Then, through an impregnation and heat treatment activation process, the liquid metal composite material is embedded in an elastic rubber matrix to form an interconnected liquid metal fiber network. The liquid metal fiber network serves as an ultra-light electronic conduction path, simultaneously exhibiting light weight and high conductivity. Although this patent improves the thermal conductivity and anti-leakage ability by optimizing the filler distribution, the precipitation of the filler during long-term cycling is a problem.
[0007] Chinese Patent CN116218476A discloses a preparation method of a highly elastic shaped composite phase change material, and the operation steps are as follows: (1) An elastomer matrix, a phase change matrix, and a thermal conductivity enhancing agent are prepared into a completely uniformly mixed melt under molten conditions; the mass ratio of the elastomer matrix is 15-20%; the elastomer matrix is composed of a hydrogenated styrene-butadiene (SEBS) and an olefin block copolymer (OBC) mixed by mass ratio; (2) The melt is put into a mold, pressed into shape, and cooled to room temperature to obtain the highly elastic shaped composite phase change material. Although this patent emphasizes light weight and high thermal conductivity by using a foam metal composite phase change material, it is necessary to optimize the bonding strength between the porosity and the elastomer matrix, and the advantageous range of the phase change elastic material cannot be fully demonstrated.
[0008] Chinese Patent CN119119748A discloses a flexible composite phase change material, a preparation method thereof, and a solar thermoelectric power generation system using the same. The flexible composite phase change material uses a hydrogenated styrene-butadiene block copolymer SEBS as a temperature-resistant and aging-resistant flexible matrix, an olefin block copolymer OBC as a flexible elastomer, paraffin PW as a phase change material, and expanded graphite EG as a porous thermal conductivity enhancing material, which is prepared by a melt blending method and formed by hot pressing; the material has a self-encapsulation property, which can avoid the leakage of paraffin in the molten state; and it has good flexibility and bending properties in the molten state of paraffin. The flexible composite phase change material has a phase change temperature of 62.06-63.54 °C, a phase change latent heat of 124.84-136.14 J / g, and a thermal conductivity of 3.07-4.54 W / (m·K). This patent focuses on the combination of a self-healing elastomer and a phase change material, and uses a dynamic hard phase design to achieve the balance of thermal management function and mechanical properties. However, the material synthesis cost is relatively high, and it is difficult to mass-produce on a large scale in actual production, so it cannot meet the large market demand in the fields of electronic device thermal management, building energy conservation, and intelligent temperature control. Summary of the Invention
[0009] The present invention provides a novel double-wall material phase change elastic composite material to solve the problems of liquid leakage of the phase change material, insufficient flexibility, and low heat conduction efficiency.
[0010] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0011] A novel double-wall material phase change elastic composite material includes a core material, wall material A, wall material B, and an elastomer matrix; the core material is paraffin wax, and its mass percentage is 20-30% of the total amount of raw materials; the wall material A is gelatin, and its mass percentage is 20-30% of the total amount of raw materials; the wall material B is hexamethylene diisocyanate, and its mass percentage is 1.5-3.5% of the total amount of raw materials; the elastomer matrix is a styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer, and its mass percentage is 30-40% of the total amount of raw materials. Among them, the elastomer matrix provides the flexibility, impact resistance, and processability of the material; the core material paraffin wax absorbs / releases heat through solid-liquid phase change to achieve the thermal management function; gelatin is used as one of the wall materials for microcapsule encapsulation; the wall material B is used to cure the microcapsule wall, and through the reaction of the isocyanate group (-NCO) of hexamethylene diisocyanate with the amino group (-NH2) of gelatin, a polyurea cross-linked network is formed to enhance the strength of the wall material.
[0012] Preferably, it further includes a thermal conductive filler, a coupling agent, and a dispersant. The thermal conductive filler is carbon nanotubes, and its mass percentage is 3-5% of the total amount of raw materials; the coupling agent is a silane coupling agent, and its mass percentage is 0.05-0.2% of the total amount of raw materials; the dispersant is ethanol, and its mass percentage is 80-85% of the total amount of raw materials. Among them, the carbon nanotube flexible thermal conductive filler is used after being modified by a silane coupling agent to improve its compatibility with the elastomer matrix. The silane coupling agent hydrolyzes to generate silanol (-Si-OH), which condenses with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the thermal conductive filler. At the same time, its amino group (-NH2) forms a hydrogen bond with the benzene ring of the styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer. The modified thermal conductive filler can improve the thermal conductivity of the composite material; ethanol serves as a dispersion medium.
[0013] Preferably, it further includes a plasticizer. The plasticizer is dioctyl phthalate, and its mass percentage is 5-10% of the total amount of raw materials. Using a plasticizer can lower the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer and improve the flexibility of the material. The dioctyl phthalate molecules insert between the molecular chains of the styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer, weakening the intermolecular force and making the material easier to stretch.
[0014] Preferably, a crosslinking agent is further included. The crosslinking agent is furan - maleimide, and its mass percentage is 2 - 5% of the total amount of raw materials. The crosslinking agent is in - situ injected to form reversible covalent bonds, endowing the material with self - healing ability. Furan and maleimide can be reversibly bonded due to the Diels - Alder reaction at 78 - 82 °C. The bond breaks when heated and recombines when cooled, realizing self - healing.
[0015] Preferably, a functional additive is further included. The functional additive is graphene dispersion, and its mass percentage is 10 - 20% of the total amount of raw materials. After spraying the functional additive, a continuous heat - conducting network can be formed to improve the thermal conductivity of the material.

[0033] Preferably, in step S5, after printing, ultraviolet curing is adopted, the ultraviolet light wavelength is 365 nm, and the curing time is 5 - 15 minutes to enhance the interlayer bonding.

[0038] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0039] The present invention encapsulates organic phase change materials such as paraffin in an elastomer matrix to avoid liquid leakage and at the same time maintain the flexibility of the material; the phase change material is encapsulated by a microcapsule structure to prevent volume change during the phase change process, increase the surface area, and improve the thermal conductivity and flexibility.
[0040] The novel double-wall phase change elastic composite material uses gelatin + polyurea composite encapsulation, which improves the protection and scalability compared with the single-layer encapsulation on the market. At the same time, it indirectly reduces the leakage rate of microcapsules. By using in-situ injection of dynamic crosslinking agents and 3D printing gradient structures, the inactivation of crosslinking agents caused by static mixing is avoided and the overall thermal conductivity is enhanced.

[0076] Other steps are the same as those in Example 1.
[0077] Comparative Example 3
[0078] It is basically the same as Example 1, except that in step S4, the static crosslinking agent diisocyanatohexane (HDI) is used to replace the dynamic crosslinking agent furan-maleimide, and other steps are the same as those in Example 1.
[0079] Comparative Example 4
[0080] It is basically the same as Example 1, except that traditional compression molding is used instead of 3D printing, that is:
[0081] S5: The mixture is compression molded (thickness 2 mm) by a flat vulcanizer at 140 °C and 10 MPa pressure, non-gradient wire drawing, and then ultraviolet cured (365 nm, 10 minutes) to enhance the interfacial bonding. Other steps are the same as those in Example 1.
[0082] Comparative Example 5
[0083] It is basically the same as Example 1, except that in step S4, furan-maleimide is replaced by the ordinary crosslinking agent diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), and traditional compression molding is used instead of 3D printing, that is:

After the cooling is completed, spray graphene dispersion (5 mg / mL) onto the material surface, dry it at 80 °C to form a heat conduction layer, and finally stretch the specimen to 50% strain, hold for 5 minutes and then release it, repeat 3 times to induce molecular chain orientation;
[0090] Other steps are the same as those in Example 1.
[0091] Performance Test
[0092] 1. Use ASTM D412 (Standard Test Method for Tensile Properties of Rubber Materials) to test the elongation at break of the materials prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-6.
[0093] 2. Use differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to test the phase change enthalpy of the materials prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-6.
[0094] 3. Use the transient plane heat source method (HotDisk) to test the thermal conductivity of the materials prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-6.
[0095] 4. The test results are shown in the following table.
[0096]
[0097]
[0098] As can be seen from the above table, the synergistic effect of dynamic chemical bond design and advanced manufacturing processes (such as 3D printing structure optimization) is the fundamental reason for the overall performance of the examples to exceed that of the comparative examples. The core functions of the comparative examples are missing due to static networks, disordered fillers, and process-damaged microcapsules, which reversely verifies the non-obviousness of the technical solutions in the claims; the examples provide scalable high-performance material solutions for fields such as flexible electronics and intelligent thermal management through three-dimensional innovation of components-structures-processes.
[0099] From the data comparison of Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2 and Example 1, it can be seen that all the indexes of the materials obtained by encapsulating with gelatin single-layer wall material in Comparative Example 1 are significantly lower than those of the materials obtained under the condition of double-layer double-wall materials; in Comparative Example 2, hexamethylene diisocyanate alone cannot directly form a cross-linked network through self-polymerization and cannot form a film independently, so it cannot be used as a wall material. Only when ethylenediamine (EDA) or any other compound containing active hydrogen (such as amino group, hydroxyl group) is added additionally, can a complete microcapsule wall material be effectively formed. The indexes of the materials obtained by preparing a single-layer polyurea wall material are still significantly lower than those of the materials obtained under the condition of double-layer double-wall materials.
[0100] From the data comparison of Comparative Example 3, 4 and Example 1, it can be seen that all the indexes of the materials obtained under the conditions of static cross-linking agent and traditional compression molding are significantly lower than those of the materials obtained under the conditions of in-situ injection of dynamic cross-linking agent + 3D printing gradient structure; combined with Comparative Example 5, it can be seen that the effect of in-situ injection of dynamic cross-linking agent + 3D printing gradient structure is significantly better than the sum of the effects of static cross-linking agent and traditional compression molding alone.
[0101] From the data comparison of Comparative Example 6 and Example 1, it can be seen that the annealing process also has a great influence on the indexes of the prepared materials. Under the annealing process of the present invention, materials with better performance can be prepared.
[0102] The above content is a further detailed description of the present invention in combination with specific / preferred embodiments, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present invention is only limited to these descriptions. For those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several alternatives or modifications can be made to these described embodiments, and these alternative or modified forms should be regarded as belonging to the protection scope of the present invention.
