Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of carbon fiber precursor preparation, and specifically relates to a method for preparing low-static polyacrylonitrile (PAN) carbon fiber precursor by using an integrated oiling and drying device, which solves the problems of static electricity accumulation, uneven oil distribution and low production efficiency in the drying process in traditional processes. Background Art

[0002] In the current field of carbon fiber precursor related technology, although the existing patents have achieved some results, there are still significant shortcomings.

[0003] In the production of carbon fiber precursor, the drying, densification and oiling process of polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based precursor is a key link. Currently, the industry mainly adopts the following technical solutions:

[0004] ① Drying and densification technology

[0005] The traditional process uses a multi-roller dryer. For example, patent CN118996652A discloses a gradient temperature drying method, but it does not solve the static electricity problem caused by the friction between the fiber and the roller surface during the drying process. Some companies have tried to use hot air drying instead of contact drying, but it has the defects of high energy consumption and uneven drying (see "Research on Optimization of Carbon Fiber Precursor Drying Process", 2023).

[0006] ②Oil coating technology

[0007] Most existing oiling devices are independent units. For example, patent CN119640440A uses a multi-stage oiling tank, but does not consider the impact of static electricity accumulation on oil distribution during the oiling process. Conventional oiling agents are mainly for lubrication and have insufficient anti-static properties, which causes the fiber to easily absorb dust during subsequent processing, affecting the quality of the carbon fiber.

[0008] ③Static electricity control technology

[0009] A few companies install ionizing air bars before collecting the yarn, but these only eliminate surface static electricity and fail to address the root cause of static electricity during the drying process. Japan's Toray Industries patent (JP2022-052134) proposes adding an antistatic agent to the spinning solution, but this can affect the stability of the polymerization reaction.

[0010] Insufficient existing technology:

[0011] ①Hazards of static electricity

[0012] During the drying process, the surface potential of the fiber can reach ±3kV, resulting in increased fiber lint and breakage, and reduced production efficiency (statistics from one company show that static electricity causes an 8-12% drop in yield). Static electricity attracts dust particles, forming defects after carbonization, reducing the strength of the carbon fiber (see "Research on the Mechanism of Carbon Fiber Defect Formation," 2024).

[0013] ②Process disconnection

[0014] The drying and oiling processes operate independently, making it impossible to coordinately control static electricity and oil distribution, resulting in fluctuations in fiber properties. Traditional oiling agents tend to agglomerate in high static environments, resulting in uneven oil film thickness (CV value > 15%).

[0015] ③Equipment defects

[0016] The surface roughness of the existing drying roller is Ra ≥ 0.8μm, which increases the risk of triboelectric charging; the unreasonable structure of the oil nozzle leads to uneven oil injection pressure and excessive or insufficient oil in some areas. Summary of the Invention

The four-stage gradient drying roller gradually increases and then decreases the temperature from 90-140°C, allowing the moisture inside the fiber to evaporate step by step, avoiding microporous defects caused by sudden cooling and heating.

[0069] A compound system containing "anionic-cationic dual antistatic agent + nano-silica" was developed to solve the problem of insufficient effect of traditional single-component antistatic agents, so that the oil agent has both instant static dissipation and lasting antistatic properties. Sodium alkyl sulfonate (anion) is used to quickly neutralize positive charges, quaternary ammonium salt derivatives (cation) form a lasting conductive layer, and nano-silica enhances the adhesion of the oil film. The three work together to reduce the surface resistance of the fiber from >1×10 12 Ω is reduced to ≤1×10 10 Ω;

[0070] Based on real-time feedback of the fiber surface potential, the drying temperature, ion wind rod parameters and oiling agent concentration are dynamically adjusted to form a "detection-feedback-adjustment" closed-loop system, breaking through the limitations of traditional fixed parameter control.

[0142] Comparative Example 1 (Traditional polyacrylonitrile carbon fiber precursor preparation process):

[0143] Key parameters:

[0144] Drying method: single-stage heating roller (constant temperature 135℃), no gradient control;

[0145] Static control: ion-free wind rod and surface potential monitoring;

[0146] Oiling agent: ordinary silicone oil emulsion (without antistatic ingredients), single tank immersion oiling, no ultrasonic assistance;

[0147] Equipment maintenance: Manually clean the drying roller regularly (due to static electricity causing fiber adhesion).

[0148] The performance comparison test of the embodiment and the comparative example is shown in Table 2:

[0149] Table 2

[0150]

[0151] Comparative analysis:

[0152] Static control performance:

[0153] Due to the lack of active static electricity elimination measures, the surface potential of the comparative example is as high as ±2200V, resulting in significant electrostatic repulsion between fibers, and the number of lint is 3.75 times that of the embodiment; the present invention cooperates with gradient drying and ion wind rods, and the surface potential of 1 / 2 of the embodiment is stabilized within ±600V, suppressing the lint and breakage problems caused by static electricity from the source.

[0154] Quality stability:

[0155] In the comparative example, single-stage drying leads to uneven stress inside the fiber, with a linear density CV value of 1.8%. The oil agent agglomerates due to the lack of ultrasonic dispersion, and the distribution CV value is 18%. In the present invention, through double-slot ultrasonic oiling and gradient drying, the oil agent distribution CV value is reduced to below 7.5%, and the linear density CV value is ≤0.85%, reflecting excellent uniformity.

[0156] Production efficiency and cost:

[0157] In the comparative example, the drying roller needs to be cleaned eight times a week due to electrostatic adhesion, resulting in high maintenance costs. The maintenance frequency of the equipment of the present invention is reduced to less than once a week. Combined with a 25% reduction in the amount of antistatic agent used, the production cost is reduced by 14% to 17%.

[0158] Core advantage attribution:

[0159] Integrated device: gradient drying rollers reduce internal fiber defects, ion wind rods neutralize charges in real time, and double-slot ultrasonic oiling achieves nano-level dispersion of the oil; antistatic oil: polyether silicone oil is compounded with anionic and cationic antistatic agents to form a "fast conductivity-long-lasting protection" network, and nano-silicon dioxide enhances the adhesion of the oil film.

[0160] Through the above detailed examples and comparative examples, we can clearly see the significant effect of the present invention in improving performance and the importance of each process step.

[0161] The present invention provides a method and apparatus for preparing low-static polyacrylonitrile carbon fiber precursor. By optimizing the device structure and process parameters and combining it with a specific antistatic oiling agent, the surface potential of the precursor is effectively reduced, thereby improving the quality and performance of the precursor. Through the synergistic effect of "equipment structure innovation + antistatic oiling agent + closed-loop control", it is significantly superior to traditional processes in key indicators such as static control, quality stability, and production efficiency. It is particularly suitable for the preparation of high-end carbon fiber precursors that are sensitive to static electricity, and has significant technological progress and economic value. The method and apparatus have the advantages of stable process, high production efficiency, and excellent product performance. They are suitable for large-scale industrial production and have broad application prospects.
