Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of insulating materials and relates to a method for preparing a high-temperature resistant insulating material of multi-branched aramid fibers bonded with mica. Background Art

[0002] Aramid fiber, primarily composed of amide bonds and aromatic benzene rings, is a synthetic fiber with excellent mechanical properties. Mica, on the other hand, boasts excellent electrical properties such as high-temperature resistance and insulation, making it a promising new generation of insulating materials with broad application potential. High-temperature-resistant insulating materials are widely used in motors, transformers, aerospace, and high-performance electronic devices. Consequently, aramid fiber and mica have begun to be combined to create high-strength, high-temperature-resistant insulating materials. However, aramid fiber and mica are organic and inorganic materials, respectively, and significant differences in inorganic-organic solubility and dispersibility prevent their direct and effective combination. To address this organic-inorganic composite problem, existing methods prepare aramid fiber and mica into a slurry, which is then wet-formed into aramid mica paper. The aramid fiber and mica are physically bonded using a small molecule adhesive or hot-melt resin. This results in a very limited thickness when wet-formed. Furthermore, the physical bonding between the aramid fiber and mica makes it difficult to control the uniformity of their dispersion, resulting in insufficient mechanical and insulating properties.

[0153] Comparative Example 7 (no isocyanate surface-modified nano-mica powder is added to the material, and the thermal stability and insulation properties of the material deteriorate)

[0154] Step 1, preparation of multi-branched aramid fiber, specifically involves the following steps: adding p-phenylenediamine, 2,5-diethoxy-1,4-phenylenediamine, 2,5-bis(hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenediamine, and lithium chloride in a specific molar ratio to a 30-50 mL N-methylpyrrolidone solution. Nitrogen is then introduced into the mixed solution, and the reaction flask is placed in an ice-water bath. A specific amount of terephthaloyl chloride is then added in three equal portions, each separated by 30 minutes. After the reaction, N,N-dimethylacetamide is added to adjust the solids content of the solution to 5.0%. Nitrogen is then continuously introduced into the polymer solution, and spinning is performed by spraying the polymer solution into 500 mL of a mixed solvent of N,N-dimethylacetamide and water (v:v = 1:0.5) using a 330 x 0.05 mm spinneret, to produce spun fibers. The spun fibers were then stretched to 110% in 500 mL of a mixed solvent of N,N-dimethylacetamide and water (v:v = 0.2:1) at 70°C.

[0155] Step 2: Preparation of isocyanate-surface-modified aramid fiber. The specific process is as follows: Step 2.1: Potassium hydroxide and multi-branched aramid fiber were added to 50 mL of N,N-dimethylacetamide in a specific mass ratio.

[0158] In the above process, the mass ratio of potassium hydroxide: multi-branched aramid fiber: sodium bicarbonate: toluene 2,5-diisocyanate is 1:3:1:2, wherein the amount of potassium hydroxide used is a fixed value of 10g.

[0159] Step 3, synthesis of a multi-branched alcohol resin, specifically proceeds as follows: methyl acrylate, butyl methyl acrylate, styrene, and hydroxyethyl acrylate are added to 30 mL of a toluene solution, followed by addition of a predetermined amount of azobisisobutyronitrile, followed by stirring.

[0161] Results and Discussion: Table 1 shows the comparative results of thermal stability, mechanical properties, insulation properties, and material thickness of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5, and Table 2 shows the comparative results of thermal stability, mechanical properties, insulation properties, and material thickness of Comparative Examples 6-7:

[0162] Table 1

[0163]

[0164]

[0165] Table 2

[0166]

[0167] From Table 1 and Figure 1It can be seen that in Comparative Example 1, the multi-branched aramid fiber was not modified with isocyanate, and the aramid could not react chemically with the multi-branched alcohol resin, resulting in the inability of the aramid and the nano-mica powder to be effectively chemically bonded. The mechanical properties and insulation properties of the final material deteriorated. The thickness of the aramid-mica paper formed by the traditional wet method is usually small (≈0.2 cm), while the thickness of the materials in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5 can reach 0.8-1.4 cm. As shown in Table 1, the final mechanical properties and insulation properties of the insulating materials prepared in Examples 1-3 of the present invention have small errors, which shows that the preparation method proposed by the present invention has good reproducibility. In Comparative Example 2, during the isocyanate surface modification of the aramid, the mixture 2 obtained in step 2 was added dropwise to the mixture 1 obtained in step 1. From the perspective of the chemical reaction, the isocyanate surface modified aramid in the solution is always excessive during the reaction. Since toluene 2,5-diisocyanate is difunctional, each toluene 2,5-diisocyanate molecule can react with two aramid fibers, and finally the aramid fibers are flocculated. In Comparative Example 3, the multi-branched aramid fiber was replaced with unbranched aramid. Unbranched aramid has a regular structure and contains a large number of hydrogen bonds, which makes it easy for macromolecules to aggregate. Ultimately, aramid is incompatible with the multi-branched alcohol resin. This results in deterioration of the material's mechanical properties and insulation properties. In Comparative Example 4, hydroxyethyl acrylate was not added to the multi-branched alcohol resin. The polyurethane reaction of hydroxyl groups and isocyanate was lacking, and the material could not be cured. The material's mechanical properties and insulation properties were greatly reduced. In Comparative Example 5, the multi-branched alcohol resin was replaced with unbranched poly(hydroxyethyl acrylate). The isocyanate surface-modified aramid was incompatible with the unbranched poly(hydroxyethyl acrylate), resulting in poor thermal stability and poor insulation effect. As shown in Table 2, in Comparative Example 6, the material without isocyanate surface-modified aramid had the worst mechanical properties, indicating that aramid made a significant contribution to the material's mechanical properties. In Comparative Example 7, where no isocyanate-modified nano-mica powder was added, the thermal stability and insulation properties of the material deteriorated, indicating that the isocyanate-modified nano-mica powder significantly contributed to the material's insulation properties. However, the mechanical properties of Comparative Example 7 were the highest, indicating that the addition of isocyanate-modified nano-mica powder reduced the material's mechanical strength.

[0168] The present invention achieves chemical curing through the structural design of isocyanate-surface-modified aramid and isocyanate-surface-modified nano-mica powder, surpassing the paper-thinness of conventional aramid mica. The multi-branched structure of the isocyanate-surface-modified aramid enhances its compatibility with multi-branched alcohol resins. The nano-mica powder, with its small particle size and isocyanate-surface modification, imparts excellent dispersibility. The result is an insulating material with high-temperature resistance and excellent mechanical properties.
