Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of new energy vehicles, and particularly relates to an engine wire harness with good shielding performance and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the high-voltage electrical architecture of a new energy vehicle, an engine wire harness is a core carrier for electric energy transmission, and the reliability thereof is directly related to the power performance and safe operation of the vehicle. High-density polyethylene has excellent mechanical properties, oil resistance, and low cost, and is therefore widely used as an outer sheath material of an engine wire harness. However, as the power density of a new energy driving system continues to rise, the thermal environment in a motor compartment is becoming increasingly severe, and the local temperature has broken through 140 DEG C, far exceeding the long-term use temperature of high-density polyethylene. In a long-term high-temperature environment, the molecular chains of the polymer will be oxidized and degraded, causing the sheath to soften, creep, and even melt, accompanied by thermal aging and embrittlement, which destroys the integrity of the outer sheath and greatly affects the shielding performance of the engine wire harness. To solve the above technical defects, the application provides an engine wire harness with good shielding performance and a preparation method thereof. SUMMARY

[0003] The application aims to provide an engine wire harness with good shielding performance and a preparation method thereof, which are used to solve the problems mentioned in the background.

[0004] The application can be achieved by the following technical solutions.

[0005] A preparation method of an engine wire harness with good shielding performance comprises the following steps.

[0006] In the first step, 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl disulfide, triethylamine, and dichloromethane are mixed in a reaction bottle provided with a condenser, a thermometer, and a magnetic stirring rotor. After the magnetic stirring is started, carbon disulfide is added dropwise to the reaction bottle at a dropwise adding time of 30-60 min. After the dropwise adding is completed, the reaction is continued at room temperature for 2-3 h. Then, the reaction bottle is cooled with an ice water bath, and a solution of diethylphosphinic acid t-butyl ester in dichloromethane is added dropwise to the reaction bottle at a dropwise adding time of 15-25 min. After the dropwise adding is completed, the ice water bath is removed, and the reaction is continued for 3-4 h. After the reaction is completed, the pH of the system is adjusted to 5-7 by using dilute hydrochloric acid. Then, the organic phase is separated. After the solvent is removed from the organic phase by rotary evaporation, the modified agent is obtained by silica gel column chromatography.

[0007] The amino group of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl disulfide is rearranged under the action of carbon disulfide and diethylphosphinic acid t-butyl ester to obtain the modified agent.

[0008] The second step is to mix polyphenyl ether and toluene in a reaction bottle provided with a condenser, a thermometer and a magnetic stirring rotor, to raise the temperature of the system to 90-110 DEG C and to stir until complete dissolution, then to add an initiator to the reaction bottle and to continue the reaction at a temperature of 90-110 DEG C for 1.5 hours, then to add a modifier to the reaction bottle and to continue the reaction at a temperature of 90-110 DEG C for 40-60 minutes, and after the reaction is completed, to cool the reaction liquid to room temperature and to filter, to wash the obtained solid with anhydrous ethanol and to dry to obtain polyphenyl ether with a disulfide bond;

[0009] The initiator is used to oxidatively cleave the polyphenyl ether to obtain low-molecular-weight polyphenyl ether, and then the hydroxyl groups in the low-molecular-weight polyphenyl ether react with isothiocyanate groups in the modifier to obtain polyphenyl ether with a disulfide bond.

[0010] The third step is to pre-irradiate high-density polyethylene powder, and to add the irradiated high-density polyethylene powder, polyphenyl ether with a disulfide bond, an initiator and toluene to a reaction bottle provided with a magnetic stirring rotor under nitrogen protection, to start magnetic stirring and to react at a temperature of 90-120 DEG C for 8-24 hours, and after the reaction is completed, to cool to room temperature and to filter out the solid, to wash with anhydrous ethanol and deionized water in sequence and to dry to obtain a compatibilizer.

[0011] The irradiation of the high-density polyethylene powder greatly increases the content of hydroxyl groups in the structure, and the polyphenyl ether with a disulfide bond is broken by the initiator to generate sulfur radicals which attack double bonds in the structure of the irradiated high-density polyethylene powder, to obtain a compatibilizer which can be used to improve the compatibility of polyphenyl ether and polyethylene.

[0012] The fourth step is to obtain modified conductive filler by oxidizing conductive filler.

[0013] Oxidation can effectively increase the number of oxygen-containing groups on the surface of the conductive filler.

[0014] The fifth step is to dry and mix modified polyphenyl ether, a compatibilizer, high-density polyethylene, modified conductive filler, antioxidant and flame retardant, to melt-extrude in a nitrogen-protected double-screw extruder, to cool and pull, and to cover the outer surface of the core to obtain an engine wire harness with good shielding performance.

[0015] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the initiator in the second step is at least one of benzoyl peroxide and dicumyl peroxide.

[0016] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the initiator in the third step is at least one of tert-butyl peroxide-2-ethylhexanoate and tert-butyl peroxide carbonate-2-ethylhexyl.

[0017] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the conductive filler in the fourth step is conductive carbon black.

[0018] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the antioxidant in the fifth step is at least one of antioxidant 1010, antioxidant 1035, sodium hypophosphite, antioxidant 168.

[0019] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the flame retardant in the fifth step is a phosphate ester flame retardant, including at least one of 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO), 10-(2,5-dihydroxyphenyl)-10H-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (OPOPB).

[0020] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the mass ratio of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl disulfide, carbon disulfide, and tertiary butyl carbonic acid diethyl phosphoric anhydride in the first step is 1:2.1-2.3:2.1-2.3.

[0021] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the mass ratio of polyphenyl ether, initiator, and modifier in the second step is 20:0.8-1.2:2-3.

[0022] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the mass ratio of polyethylene, polyphenyl ether with disulfide bond, and initiator in the third step is 15-25:15:1.2-1.6.

[0023] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the modified polyphenyl ether is polyphenyl ether, polystyrene blend, and the mass fraction of polyphenyl ether in the modified polyphenyl ether is 50-60%.

[0024] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the mass ratio of modified polyphenyl ether, compatibilizer, high-density polyethylene, modified conductive filler, antioxidant, and flame retardant in the fifth step is 240-280:20:120-160:50-60:2.5-3.5:10-20.

[0025] As a further preferred embodiment of the present application, the temperature condition of melt extrusion in the fifth step is 245-255°C.

[0026] An engine wire harness with good shielding prepared by any of the above preparation steps.

[0027] The present application has at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0028] The compatibilizer of the present application is a polyphenylene ether-polyethylene graft copolymer, the polyphenylene ether segment in the molecular structure is compatible with polyphenylene ether, and the polyethylene segment is compatible with high-density polyethylene. This structure can significantly reduce the interfacial tension between the two phases of polyphenylene ether / high-density polyethylene, greatly enhance the interfacial adhesion, effectively inhibit phase separation and interfacial peeling. In the process of melt blending, the compatibilizer can stabilize the dispersed phase of polyphenylene ether droplets by reducing the interfacial energy, effectively prevent its coarsening and coalescence, and promote the size of polyphenylene ether phase to be significantly reduced and uniformly distributed. Finally, a fine and stable phase morphology structure is formed. The optimization of this microstructure can effectively improve the mechanical properties (such as tensile strength and impact toughness) of the material. In addition, the present compatibilizer does not need to introduce new resin components, avoiding the potential influence of external components on the performance of the matrix, and better preserving the inherent properties of polyphenylene ether and high-density polyethylene matrix resin.

[0029] The present application uses modified polyphenylene ether and high-density polyethylene to obtain a composite material. A large number of ether bonds and thioether structures exist in the structure of the composite material, which can not only act as hydrogen bond acceptors to form hydrogen bonds with the carboxyl groups in the oxidized conductive filler, but also significantly improve the dispersibility of the conductive filler in the outer sheath, improve the interfacial bonding ability of the conductive filler and the composite material (mainly the polyphenylene ether phase) in the outer sheath, and promote the interfacial enrichment of the conductive network in the polyphenylene ether phase, so that a high-efficiency and low-permeation-threshold conductive network can be constructed with less additive amount.

[0030] The present application uses polyphenylene ether with excellent heat resistance and intrinsic flame retardancy to be compounded with high-density polyethylene, which significantly overcomes the shortcomings of single polyolefin material in heat resistance and flame retardancy. Polyphenylene ether itself has a high glass transition temperature, which can give the outer sheath good high-temperature dimensional stability, inhibit the aging of the outer sheath in high-temperature use environment, and effectively avoid the influence of the brittleness and cracking of the outer sheath on the integrity of the outer sheath. At the same time, the polyphenylene ether molecular structure contains inherent flame-retardant structures and additional sulfur-containing groups, which can also produce a synergistic effect with phosphorus-based flame retardants, catalyze the formation of phosphorus-oxygen radicals, promote charring, heat and oxygen insulation during combustion, and by compounding with HDPE, not only significantly improve the overall heat resistance grade and upper limit of use temperature of the outer sheath, but also effectively reduce the addition amount of the flame retardant, thereby effectively maintaining the toughness of the material and improving the processing performance of the material.
