Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of polymer material modification, and specifically relates to a halogen-free flame-retardant polyolefin cable material and a silane cross-linking preparation process thereof, which is suitable for manufacturing special cables for extreme environments such as subways and high-rise buildings. Background Art
[0002] In special scenarios such as subway tunnel power supply networks and high-rise building fire protection wiring, cables must simultaneously meet multiple extreme performance requirements: zero smoke toxicity release (light transmittance ≥ 80%), halogen-free flame retardancy (oxygen index ≥ 32%), and long-term stability at high temperatures (mechanical property retention rate > 85% at 105°C). Although traditional polyvinyl chloride (PVC) cables have basic flame retardancy, the hydrogen halide gas and thick smoke released during combustion can seriously hinder evacuation. Halogen-free polyolefin cables face a core contradiction - to achieve the same flame retardancy level, they must be filled with a large amount of inorganic hydroxide (such as more than 150 parts of ATH / MDH). However, the extremely high filling content will lead to three fatal defects:
[0003] (1) Deterioration of processability: High-hardness particles experience severe abrasion during mixing, and the risk of melt fracture increases during screw extrusion.
[0004] (2) Mechanical performance collapse: The tensile strength drops by more than 40%, and the sheath layer's crack resistance cannot meet dynamic laying requirements;
[0005] (3) Cross-linking inhibition effect: The flame retardant surface adsorbs silane cross-linking agent, making the warm water cross-linking degree less than 60%, resulting in a heat deformation temperature lower than 90°C.
[0006] The current technical route has systemic limitations:
[0007] Although the irradiation cross-linking solution can improve the material's temperature resistance, the investment in electron accelerator equipment exceeds 10 million yuan, and the high-density flame retardant causes uneven radiation penetration, with cross-linking degree fluctuations exceeding 30%.
[0008] Peroxide chemical crosslinking requires high-temperature vulcanization above 170°C, but ATH / MDH begins to dehydrate and decompose at 140°C, causing bubbles in the jacket layer and flame retardant failure;
[0009] Although silane grafting cross-linking technology has the advantage of low-temperature processing, the competitive reaction between flame retardants and silanes in conventional processes reduces the cross-linking efficiency by more than 50%, and catalyst poisoning causes the cross-linking cycle to be as long as 24 hours.
[0010] In addition, existing flame retardant systems often add antimony-based synergists to compensate for performance defects, which violates the halogen-free environmental protection requirements; and the zinc borate compounding technology does not solve the compatibility problem with the polyethylene matrix, and loses flame retardancy after migration and precipitation.
[0011] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a sheath material system that combines processability with ultra-high flame retardant filling content, high efficiency of silane cross-linking reaction and long-term thermal stability. Through innovations in flame retardant surface engineering and dynamic cross-linking processes, a breakthrough in the overall performance of cables for special scenarios can be achieved. Summary of the Invention
[0012] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention discloses a low-smoke, halogen-free, flame-retardant cross-linked polyethylene cable and a silane cross-linking preparation method thereof.
[0013] The purpose of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions.
[0014] A low-smoke, halogen-free, flame-retardant cross-linked polyethylene cable, comprising a conductor and a sheath layer from the inside out, wherein the raw materials of the sheath layer include, by weight:
[0015]
[0016]
[0017] The compound halogen-free flame retardant is composed of aluminum hydroxide ATH and magnesium hydroxide MDH in a mass ratio of 2:1-1:1, has a particle size D50 of 1-5 μm, and is surface-modified with a silane coupling agent KH-550.
[0018] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned cable, the silane crosslinking agent is vinyltrimethoxysilane VTMS with a purity of ≥99%, and the organic tin catalyst is dibutyltin dilaurate.
[0019] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned cable, the flame retardant synergist is compounded by zinc borate and silicone resin in a mass ratio of 3:1.
[0020] The present invention also discloses a silane cross-linking preparation method of the low-smoke halogen-free flame-retardant cross-linked polyethylene cable, comprising the following steps:
[0021] (1) Premixing of base materials: Add LDPE, LLDPE, antioxidant 1010, and zinc stearate lubricant into an internal mixer and mix at 110-125°C for 5-8 minutes;
[0022] (2) Flame retardant dispersion: Add compound halogen-free flame retardant and flame retardant synergist, heat to 130-140℃ and mix for 10-15 minutes;
[0023] (3) Dynamic crosslinking: Cool to 85-95°C, add silane crosslinker and organotin catalyst, and continue mixing for 3-5 minutes;
[0024] (4) Extrusion granulation: The mixed material is granulated by a twin-screw extruder, and the barrel temperature is controlled at 100 / 115 / 125 / 135°C;
[0025] (5) Cable forming: The pellets are extruded and coated on the conductor to form a sheath layer;
[0026] (6) Warm water crosslinking: Place the formed cable in a 90-95℃ hot water bath for crosslinking for 8-12 hours.
[0027] Furthermore, in the above preparation method, in step (3), the catalyst is added in two stages: 70% of the total amount is added first and premixed with the base material, and the remaining 30% is injected 2 minutes before the addition of silane.
[0028] Furthermore, in the above preparation method, step (6) is followed by gradient cooling after cross-linking: 75°C water bath for 1 hour → 50°C water bath for 0.5 hour → air cooling at room temperature.
[0029] The present invention also discloses the application of the low-smoke, halogen-free, flame-retardant cross-linked polyethylene cable, which is used for wiring of fire protection systems in nuclear power plants, subway tunnels, and high-rise buildings, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.
[0030] Furthermore, the above-mentioned low-smoke halogen-free flame-retardant cross-linked polyethylene cable has a light transmittance of ≥80% after being tested for smoke density according to GB / T 17651.2; and a self-extinguishing time of ≤30 seconds when burning vertically according to GB / T 18380.12.
[0031] Furthermore, the above-mentioned low-smoke halogen-free flame-retardant cross-linked polyethylene cable has an oxygen index of ≥32% (GB / T 2406.2) and a tensile strength retention rate of ≥85% after heat aging at 136°C for 168h, GB / T 2951.12.
[0032] Compared with the existing technology, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0035] 3. Improved cross-linking efficiency: The staged catalyst injection process achieves a gel content of 78.5%, shortening the cross-linking cycle to 10 hours (Test Example 2), solving the problem of cross-linking inhibition caused by high-filled flame retardants.
