Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of highly conductive silver pastes, and in particular to a low-solid-content, highly conductive silver paste for wind power generation and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Wind power generation equipment is long-term exposed to extreme environments such as low temperature, high humidity, and salt spray. The conductive coating of its core component, the wind turbine blade, needs to have high conductivity, weather resistance, and anti-mechanical vibration ability. Among traditional conductive materials, carbon paste composites are widely used due to their light weight and high strength, but their resistivity (about 10⁻² Ω·cm) is several orders of magnitude higher than that of metal conductors, resulting in frequent lightning protection failure cases, and insufficient conductivity is likely to cause current transmission loss, affecting power generation efficiency. Although pure silver paste has excellent conductivity (in the order of 10-6–10-5 Ω·cm), the high silver content (solid content often >50%) leads to a sharp increase in cost (8000–10000 yuan / kg), and high-temperature sintering (>200 °C) is required, which cannot be adapted to heat-sensitive substrates such as epoxy resins, severely restricting its application in large blade manufacturing.

[0003] To balance cost and performance, copper powder is regarded as a substitute material due to its low price and high conductivity, but its easy oxidation characteristic leads to a sharp drop in conductivity. The silver-coated copper powder technology shows potential in the field of electronic pastes by plating silver on the surface, which can take into account antioxidant properties and conductivity, but existing research mainly focuses on electromagnetic shielding or flexible circuits and has not been optimized for wind power generation scenarios. For example, traditional silver-coated copper pastes still rely on high-temperature curing processes and lack targeted designs for the interfacial bonding of blade substrates, resulting in insufficient adhesion and easy cracking of the coating. In addition, the compounding system of nano silver particles and micron silver-coated copper powder in the existing technology is not yet mature, and the contact resistance cannot be effectively reduced through particle size gradient filling, restricting the improvement of conductive performance at low solid content. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to improve the defect of poor conductivity of existing conductive materials for wind power generation, the present application provides a low-solid-content, highly conductive silver paste for wind power generation and a preparation method thereof.

[0005] In the first aspect, the present application provides a low-solid-content, highly conductive silver paste for wind power generation, adopting the following technical solutions: A low-solid-content, highly conductive silver paste for wind power generation, comprising: 20-50 parts of conductive material; 3-5 parts of blocked isocyanate curing agent; 3-10 parts of polyurethane; 58-70 parts of solvent; 1-5 parts of functional additive; The conductive material includes silver-coated copper powder and flaky silver powder.

[0006] Through the above technical solutions, the present application adopts a low solid content design to significantly reduce costs. At the same time, a composite conductive system of silver-coated copper powder and flaky silver powder is introduced. By taking advantage of the low cost of silver-coated copper powder and the high conductivity of flaky silver powder, the silver usage is reduced while maintaining the conductive performance.

[0007] On this basis, the present application selects a combination of polyurethane resin and blocked isocyanate curing agent to form a low-temperature curing system. Through the flexibility of polyurethane and the low-temperature reaction activity of the curing agent, the problem of damage to epoxy substrates caused by high-temperature sintering of traditional silver pastes is solved, and the vibration fatigue resistance of the coating is improved. The introduction of functional additives further optimizes the dispersibility, adhesion and weather resistance, and overall achieves a balance of low cost, high conductivity and extreme environment adaptability.

[0008] Further, the organic solvent includes a mixed solvent of dibasic acid ester and propylene glycol methyl ether acetate; the dibasic acid ester is composed of dimethyl succinate, dimethyl glutarate and dimethyl adipate mixed in a mass ratio of (5-6):(18-20):(1-2).

[0009] Through the above technical solutions, the present application defines the specific composition and ratio of the organic solvent. The mixed solvent of dibasic acid ester (dimethyl succinate / dimethyl glutarate / dimethyl adipate) and propylene glycol methyl ether acetate (PMA) (mass ratio 6-7:1) has a high boiling point (150-200 °C) and strong dissolving ability, which can ensure the full dissolution of polyurethane resin and excellent leveling property of the slurry. The specific ratio of dimethyl succinate (short chain) and dimethyl glutarate / dimethyl adipate (long chain) adjusts the solvent evaporation gradient, avoids pinhole defects caused by too fast solvent evaporation during the coating process, and ensures a dense and pore-free coating after drying. The polar property of propylene glycol methyl ether acetate enhances the compatibility between the solvent and the resin, and further improves the storage stability of the slurry.

[0010] Further, the conductive material further includes 2-5 parts by weight of nano silver particles.

[0011] Through the above technical solutions, the present application introduces nano silver particles into the conductive phase. By filling the gaps between micron-sized silver-coated copper powder and flaky silver powder with nano particles, a multi-scale conductive network is formed. The high specific surface area and surface activity of nano silver can reduce the contact resistance between micron-sized particles, and at the same time enhance the mechanical strength of the coating. In addition, the addition of nano silver reduces the risk of oxidation exposure of silver-coated copper powder, and improves the conductive stability through the "micro-nano" synergistic effect.

[0012] Further, the particle size of the silver-coated copper powder is 5-6 μm, the particle size of the flaky silver powder is 2.5-4.5 μm, and the particle size of the nano silver particles is 150-400 nm.

[0013] Through the above technical solutions, the present application further defines the particle size range of the conductive material: the particle size of the silver-coated copper powder is 5-6 μm to ensure a high packing density and reduce the coating porosity; the flaky silver powder is 2.5-4.5 μm to increase the conductive contact area through the flat structure and reduce the lateral resistance; the nano silver particles are 150-400 nm to fill the gaps between the micron-sized particles and form a three-dimensional conductive path. The three optimize the packing efficiency through a gradient particle size distribution (0.5-3 μm mixed particle size), avoid the problem of increased porosity caused by a single particle size, and at the same time improve the rheological properties of the slurry.

[0014] Further, the mixing ratio of the dibasic acid ester to propylene glycol methyl ether acetate is (6-7):1.

[0015] Further, the functional additive includes tetraethyl titanate and a phosphoric acid polyester dispersant mixed in a mass ratio of (1-2):(0.5-2.0).

[0016] Through the above technical solutions, the present application defines the functional additive as a synergistic combination of tetraethyl titanate and a phosphoric acid polyester dispersant. Tetraethyl titanate, as a coupling agent, forms a titanate layer on the surface of the silver powder through hydrolysis and condensation reactions, enhancing the interfacial bonding force between the inorganic particles and the polyurethane resin; the phosphoric acid polyester dispersant prevents the silver powder from agglomerating through electrostatic repulsion and steric hindrance effects. The two synergistically improve the dispersion uniformity, coating denseness and long-term stability of the slurry, and at the same time reduce the porosity of the cured coating, further improving the conductivity.

[0017] In a second aspect, the present application provides a method for preparing a low-solid-content and high-conductive silver paste for wind power generation, adopting the following technical solutions: A method for preparing a low-solid-content and high-conductive silver paste for wind power generation, comprising the following preparation steps: S1. Conductive phase pretreatment: Mix the silver-coated copper powder, flaky silver powder and nano silver particles through a ball milling process, control the particle size distribution of the mixed powder to be 0.5-3 μm, and collect the conductive phase; S2. Organic carrier synthesis: Dissolve the polyurethane resin in an organic solvent at 80-85 °C, stir until completely dissolved and then filter to collect the organic carrier; S3. Slurry preparation: Mix the conductive phase, tetraethyl titanate and the organic carrier, add the phosphoric acid polyester dispersant after high-speed dispersion, and grind to a fineness of ≤5 μm by series sand milling treatment; S4. Viscosity adjustment: Add a solvent to adjust the viscosity to 500-1000 cp, and prepare the low-solid-content and high-conductive silver paste for wind power generation through vacuum degassing.

[0018] Through the above technical solutions, in this application, the uniform mixing and particle size distribution control (0.5 - 3 μm) of micro / nano particles are first achieved through the ball milling process, breaking the soft agglomeration of silver-coated copper powder and avoiding the discontinuity of the conductive network after coating. At the same time, this application adopts the scheme of synthesizing low-temperature organic carriers to avoid the degradation of polyurethane resin caused by high temperature and maintain the integrity of the resin molecular chain, thereby ensuring the flexibility and adhesion of the coating. Finally, this application uses a series of sand mills to refine particles in stages and combines vacuum deaeration to eliminate micropores, ensuring high density and low resistivity of the slurry.

[0019] Further, the series sand grinding treatment described in step S3 includes the following steps: First, use zirconium beads with a diameter of 0.8 - 1.0 mm and grind at 2500 - 3000 r / min until the fineness is ≤ 6 μm; then use zirconium beads with a diameter of 0.2 - 0.5 mm and grind at 3000 - 3500 r / min until the fineness is ≤ 3 μm.

[0020] Through the above technical solutions, in this application, large particle agglomerates are first rapidly broken by the first-stage sand grinding, and the particle size is initially reduced to ≤ 6 μm, avoiding the low grinding efficiency caused by directly using small zirconium beads. Then, through the high-frequency collision of small and medium-sized zirconium beads in the second-stage sand grinding, the particles are further refined to ≤ 3 μm, ensuring the uniform dispersion of nano silver particles and filling the micron-level gaps. This staged grinding strategy takes into account both efficiency and precision, reduces particle breakage caused by over-grinding, and at the same time reduces energy consumption.

[0021] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. This application adopts a low solid content design to significantly reduce costs. At the same time, a composite conductive system of silver-coated copper powder and flake silver powder is introduced. By using the low cost of silver-coated copper powder and the high conductivity of flake silver powder, the silver consumption is reduced while maintaining the conductive performance.

[0022] On this basis, this application selects the combination of polyurethane resin and blocked isocyanate curing agent to form a low-temperature curing system. Through the flexibility of polyurethane and the low-temperature reaction activity of the curing agent, the problem of damage to the epoxy substrate caused by high-temperature sintering of traditional silver paste is solved, and the vibration fatigue resistance of the coating is improved. The introduction of functional additives further optimizes the dispersibility, adhesion and weather resistance, and overall achieves the balance of low cost, high conductivity and extreme environment adaptability.

[0023] 2. This application introduces nano silver particles into the conductive phase. By filling the gaps between micron-level silver-coated copper powder and flake silver powder with nano particles, a multi-scale conductive network is formed. The high specific surface area and surface activity of nano silver can reduce the contact resistance between micron-level particles and at the same time enhance the mechanical strength of the coating. In addition, the addition of nano silver reduces the risk of oxidation exposure of silver-coated copper powder, and improves the conductive stability through the "micro-nano" synergistic effect.

[0024] 3. The functional additive defined in this application is a synergistic combination of tetraethyl titanate and a phosphoric acid polyester dispersant. As a coupling agent, tetraethyl titanate forms a titanate layer on the surface of silver powder through hydrolysis and condensation reactions, enhancing the interfacial bonding force between inorganic particles and polyurethane resin; the phosphoric acid polyester dispersant prevents silver powder agglomeration through electrostatic repulsion and steric hindrance effects. The two work together to improve the dispersion uniformity of the slurry, the compactness of the coating, and the long-term stability, while reducing the porosity of the cured coating and further enhancing the conductivity.
