[0008] This invention provides a production process for high-compression-strength, low-explosion-rate electrolytic capacitor paper, comprising the following steps: S100, adding polyethylene terephthalate microfibers, modified cellulose short fibers, aluminum silicate nanoparticles, and silane coupling agent to water, mixing and dispersing to form a first slurry; S200, sequentially applying a double-wire forming method, directional impregnation, and wet stretching to obtain a wet paper blank; S300, impregnating the wet paper blank with glutaraldehyde for chemical cross-linking to obtain electrolytic capacitor paper.

[0009] In any of the above technical solutions, the preparation method of modified cellulose short fibers in step S100 is as follows: S110, sodium hydroxide solution is added to the cellulose short fiber slurry. After the reaction is completed, it is washed with deionized water until neutral and then separated into solid and liquid to obtain a fiber suspension; S111, methacryloyloxypropyltriethoxysilane is added to the fiber suspension, stirred, and then washed with deionized water until neutral to obtain modified cellulose short fibers.

The molecular-level "bridge" built by the silane coupling agent between the fiber and the aluminum silicate nanoparticles, and the three-dimensional network formed by the chemical cross-linking of glutaraldehyde, enable the capacitor paper to exhibit excellent interfacial bonding strength and dimensional stability in both wet and dry states. It can resist the erosion of high humidity, high temperature and electrolyte environment, and significantly improve aging resistance and service life.

[0017] 3.

Combined with a two-stage directional impregnation and wet stretching process, this not only achieves uniform impregnation and rapid conduction of the electrolyte, but also effectively suppresses bubble aggregation, significantly improves the breakdown voltage, and reduces the equivalent series resistance, thereby greatly reducing the explosion failure rate and optimizing the overall electrical performance of the capacitor. Attached Figure Description Detailed Implementation

[0018] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0019] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and therefore the scope of protection of the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0020] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this aspect more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of this aspect are described in detail below.

[0021] Existing electrolytic capacitor paper mostly uses pure cellulose or cellulose / inorganic filler composite systems. Although the dielectric and impregnation properties meet the requirements, fiber breakage can easily occur under high voltage and long-life conditions, leading to dielectric breakdown and explosive failure. In addition, to improve compressive strength, the paper thickness or pulp content is usually increased, but this reduces the penetration rate of the conductive liquid, affecting the capacitor performance.

[0022] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this embodiment provides a high-compressive-strength, low-explosion-rate electrolytic capacitor paper. This paper achieves superior compressive strength and uniform electrolyte impregnation by combining polyethylene terephthalate microfibers to construct a high-strength skeleton, modified cellulose short fibers to reinforce the fiber-inorganic interface, aluminosilicate nanoparticles to precisely fill the pores, silane coupling agents to enhance the composite structure, and wet-strength resin to maintain fiber adhesion in a wet state. This, along with a layered gradient pore design, effectively suppresses localized over-impregnation and bubble aggregation, significantly reducing the risk of breakdown and explosion, and improving the safety and reliability of the capacitor paper under high-voltage, long-life operating conditions.

[0023] Preferably, the electrolytic capacitor paper comprises the following components: polyethylene terephthalate microfibers: 30-50%, modified cellulose short fibers: 20-40%, aluminum silicate nanoparticles: 5-15%, silane coupling agent: 0.5-1.5%, and wet-strength resin: 10-25%. Through the synergistic effect of multiple components, significant improvements have been achieved in structural strength, electrolyte management, and long-term reliability. Polyethylene terephthalate microfibers form a high-strength skeleton in the paper matrix, providing excellent compressive and tear resistance and effectively dispersing stress under high pressure. Modified cellulose short fibers form stable chemical bonds at the fiber-inorganic particle interface, enhancing the adhesion between phases, allowing the nanofiller and fiber network to maintain structural integrity under high humidity and high temperature environments. Aluminum silicate nanoparticles precisely fill the paper pores, not only inhibiting local over-wetting of electrolyte through physical barriers but also adjusting the pore size distribution, dissipating local electric field concentration, and reducing the probability of dielectric breakdown. Silane coupling agents build a molecular-level "bridge" between inorganic particles and cellulose short fibers, further enhancing the interfacial bonding strength and aging resistance of the multiphase system. The wet-strength resin maintains high cohesion and fiber adhesion even in a wet state. Combined with a dual-gradient pore design, a dense barrier layer is formed on the paper surface while the core layer retains permeable channels, achieving uniform impregnation and rapid conduction of the electrolyte.

[0024] Preferably, the electrolytic capacitor paper has a layered gradient pore structure, comprising a surface region and a core region; wherein the pore size of the surface region is 0.5~2μm, and the pore size of the core region is 5~10μm; this layered gradient pore structure is achieved through a double-web forming and directional impregnation process. First, in the double-web forming stage, the surface web and the core web control the fiber deposition density respectively, so that the surface layer forms micropores of 0.5~2μm, and the core layer retains macropores of 5~10μm; subsequently, in the wet-strength resin directional impregnation and vacuum dehydration process, the low-solids content resin only fills the surface micropores, while the high-solids content resin penetrates into the core macropores, thereby forming a pore gradient of "dense surface and permeable core" within the same wet paper blank. The surface micropores and resin layer together form a highly efficient barrier layer, which can prevent excessive local wetting of electrolyte and bubble migration. The core layer macropores and their uniform interconnected channels ensure rapid and uniform penetration of electrolyte and ion migration, significantly improving breakdown voltage and reducing equivalent series resistance, while taking into account the air permeability and compressive strength of the paper, ultimately achieving low explosion rate and high reliability of capacitor paper.

[0025] Preferably, the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) microfibers have a diameter of 5–10 μm and a length of 1–2 mm, which helps to form a uniform, continuous, and interwoven three-dimensional fiber network in the paper matrix. The moderate fiber diameter ensures high filling density and network density at the microscale, thereby significantly enhancing the compressive and tear strength of the paper. The 1–2 mm fiber length balances the toughness and flexibility of the network, allowing for effective stress dispersion between fibers under high pressure loads and preventing fatigue fracture. In addition, the synergistic effect of PET microfibers and cellulose short fibers can optimize the pore structure, providing stable mechanical support for subsequent gradient impregnation and nanoparticle filling, ultimately improving the overall reliability and service life of the capacitor paper.

[0026] Preferably, the modified cellulose short fibers are pretreated softwood pulp with a freeness of 40-50°SR and a length of 0.8-1.2 mm, which can significantly optimize the fiber network and paper base properties: First, the medium freeness increases the degree of cellulose fibrillation on the fiber surface, improving the surface area and hydroxyl exposure, thereby enhancing the chemical and physical bonding with silane coupling agents and wet-strength resins; Second, the fiber length of 0.8-1.2 mm ensures sufficient inter-fiber cross-entanglement to form a high-toughness network structure, while also achieving uniform distribution in double-network forming, avoiding uneven porosity caused by excessive aggregation of short fibers or entanglement of long fibers; Finally, this modified short fiber works synergistically with polyethylene terephthalate microfibers and nano-aluminum silicate in the composite system, not only improving the cohesiveness and tear strength of the paper, but also helping to achieve gradient pore control and nanofilling through its good dispersibility and interfacial bonding properties, further reducing local electric field concentration, and improving the compressive strength, dielectric uniformity, and reliability of electrolytic capacitor paper.

[0027] Specifically, this embodiment provides a production process for high-compression-resistant, low-explosion-rate electrolytic capacitor paper, including the following steps:

[0028] S100. Polyethylene terephthalate microfibers, modified cellulose short fibers, aluminum silicate nanoparticles and silane coupling agent are added to water, mixed and dispersed to form a slurry, and the first slurry is obtained.

[0029] S200: The first pulp is sequentially subjected to double-wire forming, directional impregnation, and wet stretching to obtain a wet paper blank;

[0030] S300. The wet paper blank is impregnated with glutaraldehyde for chemical cross-linking to obtain electrolytic capacitor paper.

[0031] Preferably, the modified cellulose short fiber preparation method in step S100 is as follows: S110, sodium hydroxide solution is added to the cellulose short fiber slurry, and after the reaction is completed, it is washed with deionized water until neutral to perform solid-liquid separation and obtain fiber suspension; S111, methacryloyloxypropyltriethoxysilane is added to the fiber suspension, stirred, and then washed with deionized water until neutral to obtain modified cellulose short fiber. In step S110, adding sodium hydroxide to the cellulose short fiber slurry not only physically removes residual lignin and impurities from the fiber surface, but also causes cellulose to cellulose and undergo microscopic cleavage, significantly increasing the fiber surface area and hydroxyl exposure. This greatly enhances the compatibility and adhesion with subsequent resins and inorganic fillers. Meanwhile, silane coupling modification introduces organic functional groups onto the cellulose surface, enabling the formation of strong chemical bonds and physical adsorption between the fiber, aluminosilicate nanoparticles, and epoxy / polyamide wet-strength resin. This not only strengthens the bonding strength and aging resistance of the fiber-particle-resin interface in the multiphase system, but also effectively prevents fiber expansion and interface failure in a wet state, thereby ensuring the structural stability, tear resistance, and breakdown reliability of the final electrolytic capacitor paper under high humidity, high voltage, and long-life conditions.

[0032] Furthermore, in step S100, polyethylene terephthalate microfibers, modified cellulose short fibers, aluminum silicate nanoparticles, and silane coupling agents are thoroughly mixed and dispersed in water. This not only breaks up the agglomerates of fibers and nanoparticles, ensuring that each component is evenly distributed in the slurry and avoiding voids or uneven performance during molding, but also allows the silane coupling agent to be pre-adsorbed on the surface of fibers and particles, activating interfacial chemical activity and providing a strong bonding point for subsequent wet-strength resin impregnation and chemical crosslinking. At the same time, the stable slurry system ensures the fluidity and molding consistency in the double-network molding process, laying a solid foundation for the formation of a homogeneous and tough three-dimensional composite network within the final paper base.

[0033] Preferably, in step S200, firstly, a double-mesh forming process using a surface layer mesh of 180-220 mesh and a core layer mesh of 40-80 mesh is used to precisely construct a layered gradient pore structure of surface micropores and core macropores in the same wet paper blank. Subsequently, two-stage directional impregnation is used: firstly, 5-10 wt.% of a first wet-strength resin is used to pre-wet the surface layer and then pre-cured by vacuum dehydration; secondly, 15-20 wt.% of a second wet-strength resin is used to deeply fill the core macropores, thereby strengthening the surface barrier without affecting the unobstructed flow of the channels. Finally, the second wet paper blank is wet-stretched in the longitudinal direction at a draw ratio of 12-18% and a speed of 1-5 m / min, so that the fibers and resin molecules are oriented along the paper machine direction, further improving the compressive strength and toughness of the paper base, and forming a uniform resin film inside the pores, ultimately obtaining a high-performance wet paper blank that is both dense and transparent, crack-resistant, and has uniform liquid conductivity.

[0034] Furthermore, in step S202, the first wet-strength resin pre-impregnates the surface layer, forming a continuous, water-swellable cross-linked film on the fiber surface and within the micropores. This rapidly enhances the cohesive force between fibers, making the wet paper blank less prone to fiber slippage or structural collapse during subsequent dehydration and drying. The second wet-strength resin, with a higher solids content, penetrates deep into the macropores of the core layer, constructing a dense and elastic network resin skeleton. This not only further improves wet strength and compressive strength but also maintains long-term stable mechanical support and barrier effects in high-humidity or electrolyte environments. The combined impregnation of these two resins not only achieves the dual functions of "surface sealing and anti-permeability" and "core layer reinforcement and flow guidance" but also, through gradient control of cross-linking degree and penetration depth, enables the final paper base to possess excellent tear resistance, durability, and electrolyte management capabilities, thereby minimizing the risk of dielectric breakdown and explosion.

[0035] Preferably, in step S301, the wet paper blank is impregnated with glutaraldehyde solution to carry out a chemical cross-linking reaction, resulting in a cross-linked wet paper blank. Glutaraldehyde chemically cross-links with the amino groups on cellulose and wet-strength resin to form a three-dimensional cross-linked network, which significantly improves the dry and wet strength and dimensional stability of the paper base. In step S302, vacuum dehydration rapidly removes free water at 50~80 kPa to prevent the fiber skeleton and cross-linked structure from collapsing or deforming during dehydration, while also reducing the subsequent drying load. Finally, in step S303, the paper is dried at a constant temperature of 80~120℃ for 2~4 hours, which not only completely removes residual moisture but also completely solidifies the cross-linked network, locking the gradient pore structure and resin distribution, thereby obtaining an electrolytic capacitor paper with high compressive strength, good electrolyte management ability, and excellent aging resistance.

[0036] In summary, this embodiment achieves a significant increase in the compressive strength of electrolytic capacitor paper by leveraging the synergistic effects of polyethylene terephthalate microfibers, modified cellulose short fibers, aluminum silicate nanoparticles, silane coupling agents, and wet-strength resin, combined with a layered gradient pore structure design. This effectively disperses stress and prevents fiber breakage. The material interface is strengthened, exhibiting both wet and dry strength, and excellent aging resistance. The gradient pores and nanofillers construct uniform impregnation channels, improving electrolyte management efficiency and reducing local over-impregnation and bubble aggregation. Overall, the embodiment significantly improves breakdown voltage, reduces equivalent series resistance, and lowers explosion failure rate.

[0078] Test data

[0079] The compressive strength, breakdown voltage, explosion rate, and electrolyte penetration time of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1 were measured. The test methods are shown below, and the results are shown in Table 1. The results of the test of Example 1 and the reverse mercury intrusion porosimetry are shown in Table 2.

[0080] (1) Compressive strength: According to GB / T228.1-2021 "Metallic materials, tensile testing - Part 1: Test at room temperature", the test was performed using a universal testing machine. 10×10mm samples from Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1 were cut. 2 Electrolytic paper, stacked to a thickness of 1 mm, pre-compressed to eliminate gaps, and vertically compressed at a rate of 1 mm / min. The maximum load (N) at the moment of crushing is recorded: Compressive strength (MPa) = Maximum load (N) / Specimen cross-sectional area (mm²) 2 ).

[0081] (2) Breakdown voltage: According to the standard method (GB 12656-1990), the paper samples of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1 were dried at 105±5℃ for 1 hour to avoid the influence of moisture absorption. The double-layer paper samples were placed between the electrodes and the voltage was increased uniformly at a rate of 10-20s until breakdown. One point was measured at a spacing of 50-60mm, for a total of 20 valid points. Outliers were removed. The result was calculated as follows: the average breakdown voltage (V / layer) = the arithmetic mean of 20 points / 2. The coefficient of variation needs to be reported.

[0082] (3) Explosion rate: The capacitor was injected with electrolyte, sealed and placed in a constant temperature chamber (85℃); 1.5 times the rated voltage was applied and the number of failures was recorded within 3000 hours; Explosion rate (%) = (number of failure samples / total number of samples) × 100%.

[0087] As shown in Table 1, this invention, through triple innovation in materials, structure, and process, achieves improved compressive strength, increased breakdown voltage, and reduced 3000-hour explosion rate while maintaining rapid electrolyte penetration, far exceeding the performance limits of traditional products. The data from the embodiments fully cover the scope of the claims, and the testing methods comply with national / industry standards.

[0088] As shown in Table 2, the 5~15μm pore size range accounts for 54.4% of the total pore volume, which matches the 60-mesh forming process of the core layer mesh, ensuring rapid electrolyte conduction; the 0.5~2μm micropore region accounts for 21.2%, and combined with <0.5μm nano-filled pores, the total micropore volume reaches 26.8%, corresponding to the 200-mesh high-density design of the surface layer mesh, effectively suppressing electrolyte over-immersion; the core layer macropores dominate the pore volume to ensure permeation efficiency, and the surface micropores construct a barrier layer, together realizing the design of "dense barrier on the surface layer + permeable conduction in the core layer", providing a structural basis for uniform electrolyte impregnation and explosion-proof performance.

[0089] In the description of this specification, the terms "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "specific embodiment," etc., refer to a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or example, which is included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0090] While the present invention has been disclosed above, it is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various modifications and alterations without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention; therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
