Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of metal surface treatment, and particularly relates to a copper-clad aluminum material, and specifically relates to a surface composite treatment process for a copper-clad aluminum material and application. BACKGROUND

[0002] Copper-clad aluminum (CCA) is a composite material with an aluminum core and a copper layer on the outside, which has excellent electrical conductivity (conductivity > 95% IACS), weldability, and the lightweight characteristics of aluminum (density is only 30% of copper), and is widely used in the fields of electronics, communications, aerospace, etc.

[0003] Traditional copper-clad aluminum materials rely on a single plating layer to achieve corrosion resistance and weldability, and have significant functional limitations. For example, in high-temperature or humid environments, the copper layer is prone to oxidation, forming an oxide film with poor electrical conductivity, which causes the contact resistance of the material to increase rapidly, affecting the stability of electronic components; in complex electromagnetic environments, it lacks effective electromagnetic shielding ability and cannot block external electromagnetic interference, making it difficult to be applied to fields such as 5G communication equipment and precision medical devices that have strict requirements on electromagnetic compatibility. In addition, existing plating layers usually do not have properties such as wear resistance and high-temperature resistance, limiting the application of the material in high-stress and extreme temperature environments.

[0004] In addition, the insufficient bonding strength of the existing single plating layer and copper-clad aluminum material is a long-standing technical pain point. Due to the large difference in the thermal expansion coefficient between copper and aluminum, under the action of temperature cycling or mechanical stress, the plating layer is prone to peeling, peeling, and other phenomena, exposing the substrate and accelerating corrosion, significantly shortening the service life and performance stability of the material, increasing the equipment maintenance cost and safety hazards.

[0005] Therefore, it is an urgent need to develop a multifunctional and excellent bonding strength composite plating layer to solve the problems of single function of copper-clad aluminum material, pollution of traditional process, and insufficient stability of plating layer, etc., which is an important direction to promote the green upgrading of material surface treatment technology.

[0027] Figure 2 The coating metallographic detection analysis graphs of the comparative examples (a: comparative example 2; b: comparative example 6; c: comparative example 8). DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] It is necessary to point out here that the following detailed description is only used to further illustrate the application, and cannot be understood as limiting the protection scope of the application, and the skilled in the art can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the application according to the above application content.

[0029] 1. DESCRIPTION

[0030] The copper-clad aluminum workpiece in the application is a wire or a bar, specifically an aluminum core coated with a copper layer on the outside, and the aluminum material is exposed at both ends and / or at the perforated part, and the total volume of the copper layer accounts for about 25% of the total material.

[0031] In at least one embodiment of the application, a surface composite treatment process for copper-clad aluminum material is disclosed, including the following steps:

[0032] Step 1: Immerse the copper-clad aluminum workpiece in an alkaline degreasing solution containing NaOH (3-5g / L), Na2CO3 (15-20g / L), OP-10 (3-5g / L), citric acid (5-10g / L), and phosphoric acid (3-5g / L). Nano-silica (1-2g / L) is added as a surfactant. The temperature is 50-60°C and the workpiece is immersed for 5-10 minutes. The high specific surface area of ​​nano-SiO2 absorbs oil stains, while the alkaline component and weak acid form a gradient pH environment, achieving simultaneous degreasing and surface roughening. This shortens the process time to 8-12 minutes, reduces the temperature to 40-50°C, and reduces energy consumption by 20%.

[0033] Step 2: Immerse the copper-clad aluminum workpiece in an acid immersion solution (power 200-300W) and use ultrasonic waves (power 200-300W) to assist in etching. The acid immersion solution consists of sodium persulfate (8-12g / L), sulfuric acid (3-5g / L), phosphoric acid (2-3g / L), and aminosulfonic acid (1-2g / L). Ultrasonic waves (power 200-300W) assist in etching. The mild acidity of aminosulfonic acid reduces substrate corrosion, while the ultrasonic cavitation effect accelerates oxide film stripping, shortening etching time to 2-3 minutes and controlling surface roughness Ra to 0.5-1μm, improving coating adhesion.

[0034] Step 3: The copper-clad aluminum workpiece is immersed in the zinc dipping solution for a total immersion time of 60-120 seconds. The NaOH concentration is maintained at 60-70 g / L in the first section (30-90 seconds) (low concentration alkaline environment, adapted to the slow peeling of the oxide film on the aluminum substrate), and NaOH is added to 90-120 g / L in the second section (30-90 seconds) (high concentration alkaline environment, accelerating the replacement of zinc on the copper surface). The temperature is 25-35 ° C, and the thickness of the zinc layer is controlled at 0.5-0.8 μm. The zinc dipping solution composition is: zinc oxide (20-30 g / L), sodium hydroxide (80-120 g / L), nano ZrO2 (0.3-0.5 g / L), sodium citrate (20 g / L), nickel chloride (NiCl2·6H2O40 g / L), hydroxyethyl hydrazine (2-3 g / L), L-cysteine ​​(0.5-1 g / L);

[0035] Compared with the traditional secondary zinc dipping method, this zinc dipping method shortens the process time. The zinc layer thickness can be close to 1μm in 60s, which simplifies the process and eliminates the redundant steps of zinc stripping and secondary zinc dipping. The density and uniformity of the zinc layer are optimized to adapt to the characteristics of heterogeneous substrates (aluminum / copper). It reduces substrate corrosion and protects the integrity of the copper-aluminum interface. The "nitric acid zinc stripping" step of the traditional secondary zinc dipping is a key hidden danger: nitric acid is a strong oxidizing acid and can easily over-corrode the aluminum substrate (especially the weak interface area of ​​copper-clad aluminum), causing microcracks on the interface or dissolution of the aluminum substrate, seriously affecting the adhesion of subsequent coatings.

[0036] Step 4: Put the zinc-immersed copper-clad aluminum material into an environmentally friendly nickel plating solution for nickel plating treatment. Introduce pulse plating technology with the following parameters: forward current density 2.0-3.0 A / dm 2 , reverse current density 0.5-1.0 A / dm 2 , frequency 100-200 Hz, and plating time 10-60 min. (Environmentally friendly nickel plating solution formula: main salt: nickel sulfate (NiSO4), concentration 80-120 g / L; complexing agent: disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate (Na2EDTA), concentration 40-60 g / L; additives: thiourea (0.3-1.0 g / L) + graphene quantum dots (0.1-0.3 g / L); stabilizer: potassium citrate (15-25 g / L) + sodium phytate (5-8 g / L), pH buffer range extended to 4.0-6.0.

[0037] Step 5: Deposit a titanium nitride layer on the surface of the nickel plating layer by physical vapor deposition (PVD) technology, with a thickness of 3-6 μm.

[0038] Under a pure argon environment, sputter a titanium target at a power of 1.5-2 W / cm 2 for 5-8 min to remove the surface oxide layer of the titanium target and slightly bombard the nickel surface with sputtered titanium ions to form an atomic-level mixed layer. The argon flow rate is 40-60 sccm, and a titanium transition layer (thickness 0.5-1 μm) is deposited,

[0039] Using "titanium-nitrogen plasma alternate injection", first deposit a titanium layer (0.5-1 μm) at a power of 0.8-1 W / cm 2 , then introduce nitrogen gas (flow rate 20-40 sccm) at a power of 1.0-1.5 W / cm 2 to deposit a TiN crystal nucleus layer, and repeat 2-3 times to form a gradient interface.

[0040] Through the interfacial diffusion of titanium and nickel (low-temperature micro-diffusion), gradually increase the power to 2-2.5 W / cm 2 , argon flow rate 60-80 sccm, and deposit a titanium layer (thickness usually 2-4 μm); the thickness is mainly controlled by the deposition time.

[0041] Step 6: Use a segmented annealing process, 100-120 °C for 1 h + 180-200 °C for 2 h, in combination with a vacuum environment (pressure <10 -3 Pa) to eliminate stress and inhibit oxidation.

[0042] Step 7: passivation treatment is performed on the copper-clad aluminum workpiece, and the passivation solution is composed of sodium molybdate (20-30 g / L) + phytic acid (8-10 g / L) + silane coupling agent (3-5 g / L), pH = 3.5-4.0, soaking time 5-10 min, to form a SiO2-MoO3-phytic acid composite passivation film;

[0043] Step 8: cleaning and testing: ultrasonic cleaning with deionized water for 5-10 min to remove surface residual particles, and the finished product is obtained after blowing dry.

[0044] The copper-clad aluminum material prepared by the surface composite treatment process provided in at least one embodiment of the present application has a zinc layer (0.5-2 μm), a nickel layer (10-20 μm), and a titanium nitride layer (3-6 μm) on the surface in sequence.

[0045] The methods used in the present application are conventional methods known to those skilled in the art, and the reagents and other materials used are commercially available products, unless otherwise specified.

[0185] 3. Physical and chemical performance testing

[0186] (1) Bonding strength test:

[0187] Hundred grid test (GB / T5270-2024): use 1mm interval knife to cut the plated layer surface of each sample to the substrate, paste 3M610 adhesive tape, then tear off at 180°, and observe the falling area.

[0188]

[0189]

[0190] Comparing Example 1-2 with Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that the examples adopt "low-alkali first and high-alkali later" step-by-step zinc immersion, and Comparative Example 1 adopts traditional secondary zinc immersion (including zinc stripping-secondary zinc immersion redundant steps). Examples 1-2 are both 5B (qualified), and Comparative Example 1 is 3B (unqualified). The "low-alkali first and high-alkali later" step-by-step zinc immersion can optimize the compactness and uniformity of the zinc layer, reduce the corrosion of the substrate, and protect the integrity of the copper-aluminum interface. However, the traditional secondary zinc immersion may lead to loose zinc layer and excessive corrosion of the substrate due to redundant steps, resulting in a decrease in the bonding force between the zinc transition layer and the substrate / successive nickel layer, and finally leading to a decrease in the overall bonding strength of the plated layer.

[0191] The composite plated layer structure of Example 2 is "zinc transition layer→nickel layer→nitrogen titanium layer", and Comparative Examples 2-4 respectively lack the nitrogen titanium layer, the nickel layer, and the zinc transition layer, and their strengths are 3B, 3B, and 2B respectively. It is speculated that this may be because the nitrogen titanium layer forms a high-strength bond with the nickel layer through PVD technology, and after being missing, only the nickel layer cannot maintain high bonding force. The nickel layer is a key intermediate medium between the zinc transition layer and the nitrogen titanium layer, and after being missing, the zinc layer directly contacts the nitrogen titanium layer, resulting in poor bonding due to large interface energy difference. The core role of the zinc transition layer is to solve the bonding problem of the aluminum substrate and the plated layer, and after being missing, the nickel layer is directly attached to the aluminum substrate, and the bonding force is greatly reduced.

[0192] Comparing Example 2 with Comparative Example 5, heat treatment can strengthen the interface bonding (such as element interpenetration of zinc-nickel interface and nickel-nitrogen titanium interface) through atomic diffusion, reduce interface stress, and improve the overall adhesion of the plated layer. The data shows that heat treatment can further optimize the bonding strength (from 4B to 5B).

[0193] Comparing Example 2 with Comparative Examples 6-8, it can be seen that the process provided by the present application is only suitable for copper-clad aluminum materials. Copper-clad aluminum is a heterogeneous metal composite structure, and the "aluminum-copper" interface stability is adapted to the "zinc-nickel-nitrogen titanium" plated layer system, and the copper layer can inhibit the excessive oxidation of the aluminum substrate and protect the interface integrity. Comparative Example 6 is a pure aluminum alloy substrate without copper layer protection, and the surface oxide film is thicker and more uneven, resulting in poor adhesion of the zinc transition layer, which in turn affects the bonding force of the subsequent plated layer. Comparative Example 7 is a copper-aluminum alloy with alloying structure, and the atomic-level mixing of "copper-aluminum" may weaken the directional adhesion of the zinc transition layer, and the bonding force is slightly lower than that of the copper-clad aluminum composite structure. Comparative Example 8 is a pure aluminum with high surface activity and fast oxidation, although it can form a zinc transition layer, but without the assistance of the copper layer to stabilize the interface, the bonding force is weaker than that of the copper-clad aluminum.

[0194] (2) Corrosion resistance test: neutral salt spray test (GB / T10125-2021): 35℃, 5% NaCl solution, continuous spraying for 500h, and observing the corrosion area of each sample.

[0195]

[0196] From Comparative Example 2 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that the titanium nitride layer is a core outer layer barrier that is corrosion resistant, can "enhance oxidation resistance" and block the penetration of corrosive media (such as NaCl solution). Comparative Example 2, due to the absence of the titanium nitride layer, can only rely on the zinc transition layer and the nickel layer to resist salt spray corrosion for a long time: although the nickel layer has a certain corrosion resistance, it is easily penetrated in 500h continuous salt spray, resulting in direct contact of the corrosive medium with the aluminum substrate (aluminum has poor corrosion resistance), ultimately leading to "aluminum side perforation corrosion".

[0197] Comparative Examples 2-4 are all "surface slightly corroded" (qualified). The core role of the zinc transition layer is to "solve the problem of the combination of aluminum and the coating", and the core role of the nickel layer is to "connect the zinc transition layer and the titanium nitride layer", but neither of them is the core barrier of corrosion resistance. Corrosion resistance mainly depends on the physical barrier (high hardness, low permeability) of the titanium nitride layer and the chemical corrosion resistance (nickel salt spray resistance, zinc sacrificial anode effect) of the nickel layer / zinc layer. Therefore, even if the zinc or nickel layer is missing, as long as the titanium nitride layer exists and is basically attached to the substrate / other layers, it can still resist 500h salt spray corrosion through "multilayer synergistic barrier".

[0198] In Example 2, the copper-clad aluminum is a composite substrate of "aluminum core + copper layer", and the copper layer itself has better corrosion resistance than pure aluminum or aluminum alloy, and can act as a "secondary barrier" for the penetration of corrosive media; while the aluminum alloy in Comparative Example 6 is a single aluminum substrate, and its surface oxide film has poor stability. Even if the coating is complete, the corrosive medium can still penetrate through the interface defects (such as microcracks) between the coating and the substrate to the aluminum substrate, causing serious corrosion of the substrate. This also verifies the "auxiliary improvement of copper-clad aluminum composite structure on corrosion resistance", and the aluminum alloy substrate is difficult to completely block corrosion through the coating.

[0199] Comparative Example 7 (copper aluminum alloy row) and Comparative Example 8 (pure aluminum row) are both qualified (surface slightly corroded), and the remarks are "copper aluminum alloy has better corrosion resistance than pure aluminum" and "multilayer barrier reduces the corrosion risk of aluminum substrate". The introduction of copper element (whether it is a composite structure of copper-clad aluminum or an alloy structure of copper aluminum alloy) can improve the corrosion resistance of the substrate itself and form a "substrate + coating" synergistic protection with the coating. Even if it is a pure aluminum substrate, as long as the coating (zinc→nickel→titanium nitride) forms a complete barrier, it can effectively block the penetration of corrosive media.

[0200] (3) Oxidation resistance test: high temperature oxidation test (GB / T13303-1991) places each sample in a high temperature and high humidity environment (temperature 80℃, relative humidity 95%) for 72h, and tests the resistance change rate.

[0201]

[0202] From Example 2 and Example 3, it can be seen that the dense and uniform nitrogen-titanium layer of Example 2 has a more stable crystal structure, can effectively block the penetration of oxygen and water vapor in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment, and reduce the oxidation of the coating and the substrate. The loose interlayer bonding and the presence of micropores in Example 3 may cause the oxidation medium (oxygen and water vapor) to penetrate more easily, ultimately resulting in a significant increase in the resistivity change rate.

[0203] From Example 2 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that "low-alkali first and high-alkali second step-by-step zinc immersion" can optimize the "density and uniformity" of the zinc transition layer, reduce substrate corrosion, and "protect the integrity of the copper-aluminum interface". The traditional secondary zinc immersion is prone to cause loose zinc layer and excessive corrosion of the copper-aluminum interface due to the "zinc removal-secondary zinc immersion redundant step", forming channels for the penetration of oxidation medium. In a high-temperature and high-humidity environment, these channels will accelerate the reaction between oxygen and the aluminum substrate (aluminum is easily oxidized to form a high-resistance oxide film), ultimately leading to a significant increase in resistivity (ΔR% from 1.71% to 26.4%).

[0204] The composite coating structure of Example 2 is "zinc transition layer → nickel layer → nitrogen-titanium layer", and Comparative Examples 2-4 respectively lack nitrogen-titanium layer, nickel layer, and zinc transition layer. The nitrogen-titanium layer is the core outer layer of oxidation resistance ("enhancing oxidation resistance"), and after being missing, only the zinc and nickel layers cannot block the oxidation under high temperature and high humidity, leading to the intensification of aluminum substrate oxidation. The zinc transition layer is directly combined with the nitrogen-titanium layer, and the sacrificial oxidation characteristics of zinc (preferentially oxidizing itself to protect the substrate) and the physical barrier of the nitrogen-titanium layer are synergistic, still maintaining good oxidation resistance. The bonding force between the nickel layer and the substrate (copper-clad aluminum) is weaker than that of the zinc transition layer, and the interface oxidation channel is easily formed under high temperature, leading to slightly stronger oxidation than Comparative Example 3. The complete "zinc transition layer → nickel layer → nitrogen-titanium layer" structure (Example 2) achieves optimal oxidation resistance through the synergistic effect of the three layers (zinc enhances bonding, nickel transition protection, and nitrogen-titanium outer layer barrier). The missing of a single layer will destroy the synergistic effect, but the impact of missing the nickel layer is relatively small (because zinc and nitrogen-titanium can partially compensate).

[0205] In Example 2, the copper-clad aluminum is a composite structure of "aluminum core + copper layer", and the copper layer itself has better oxidation resistance than pure aluminum, and can serve as a secondary barrier for oxidation medium, forming a "substrate + coating" double protection with the coating. In Comparative Example 6, the aluminum alloy substrate has no copper layer protection, and the surface oxide film (mainly aluminum oxide) is easily broken under high temperature and high humidity. Even with the coating, the oxidation medium is still easy to penetrate into the substrate to cause serious oxidation (+17.5%). In Comparative Example 7, the copper element in the copper-aluminum alloy solid-solution strengthens the substrate oxidation resistance (better than pure aluminum), but the alloying interface is not as stable as the composite interface of copper-clad aluminum, so the ΔR% (+7.5%) is higher than that of Example 2. In Comparative Example 8, although the pure aluminum surface is easy to form an oxide film, there is no copper layer assistance, and the oxidation rate is slightly higher than that of copper-clad aluminum, so the ΔR% (4.94%) is higher than that of Example 2 (1.71%).

[0206] (4) Electromagnetic shielding property test:

[0207] Shielding effectiveness test (GB / T 30148-2013) uses electromagnetic shielding effectiveness test system to test the shielding effectiveness of each sample to low frequency-mid frequency-high frequency electromagnetic waves.

[0208]

[0209]

[0210] Example 1-2 forms a more dense, uniform and more excellent conductive / magnetic property of nitrogen titanium layer through "atomic level mixed layer and titanium transition layer" - this structure can more effectively reflect, absorb high frequency electromagnetic waves (1 GHz frequency band). The conventional secondary zinc immersion in Comparative Example 1 causes the zinc layer to be loose and the interface to be discontinuous due to redundant steps, which reduces the overall conductivity of the coating (electromagnetic wave shielding depends on the continuity of the conductive / magnetic material), and finally the shielding effectiveness of the full frequency band is reduced by about 10-15 dB. Example 3 forms a more dense, uniform and more excellent conductive / magnetic property of nitrogen titanium layer through "atomic level mixed layer and titanium transition layer" - this structure can more effectively reflect, absorb high frequency electromagnetic waves (1 GHz frequency band), so the shielding effectiveness is 5-10 dB higher than "ordinary method deposition" (which may have pores or loose structure).

[0211] The nitrogen titanium layer is the core layer of high frequency shielding. Comparative Example 2 lacks it and only relies on the zinc transition layer (general conductivity) and the nickel layer (moderate conductivity) for shielding, resulting in a 5-10 dB decrease in high frequency effectiveness (compared to 70-75 dB in Example 2). The nickel layer is the "conductive bridge" between the zinc transition layer and the nitrogen titanium layer (nickel has better conductivity than zinc and is tightly combined with the nitrogen titanium layer). In Comparative Example 3, the absence of the nickel layer increases the interface resistance between the zinc layer and the nitrogen titanium layer, reducing the electromagnetic wave reflection / absorption capacity and significantly reducing the full frequency band effectiveness. The core role of the zinc transition layer is to "solve the problem of aluminum and coating combination". In Comparative Example 4, the absence of the zinc transition layer causes the nickel layer to not be tightly combined with the copper-clad aluminum substrate, easily forming interface gaps that lead to electromagnetic wave leakage and lower shielding effectiveness than the complete structure.

[0212] Heat treatment promotes the interface fusion of "zinc transition layer → nickel layer → nitrogen titanium layer" through atomic diffusion, reduces interlayer porosity and contact resistance, and makes the coating a continuous "conductive-shielding whole". In Comparative Example 5, there are a large number of micro-gaps in the interlayer interface, and electromagnetic waves can easily penetrate through the gaps, resulting in a 20-25 dB decrease in full frequency band shielding effectiveness.

[0213] In Example 2, the copper-clad aluminum is a composite structure of "aluminum core + copper layer". The conductivity of copper (about 1.7μΩ·cm) is much higher than that of aluminum (about 2.8μΩ·cm). The copper layer as the bottom layer of the substrate can enhance the overall conductivity and form a "substrate-plating" synergistic shield with the coating, with the best performance. The aluminum alloy in Comparative Example 6 has poor conductivity (containing alloy elements reduces conductivity), and there is no copper layer to assist. Even with the coating, the overall conductive foundation is weak and the shielding effectiveness is the lowest. The copper element in the copper-aluminum alloy of Comparative Example 7 improves the conductivity (better than pure aluminum), but the alloying causes uneven copper distribution, and the conductive continuity is worse than the "copper layer + aluminum core" composite structure of copper-clad aluminum, and the shielding effectiveness is lower than that of Example 2. The pure aluminum in Comparative Example 8 has better conductivity than the aluminum alloy (no alloy element interference), and the coating is complete. The shielding effectiveness is higher than that of Comparative Examples 6-7, but due to the lack of copper layer assistance, it is still lower than copper-clad aluminum. This shows that the conductivity of the substrate is the basis of electromagnetic shielding.

[0214] (5) Self-cleaning performance test: Apply oil stains on the surface of each sample and observe the decomposition and removal of the oil stains under natural light.

[0215] Oil stains were applied to the sample surfaces and observed for decomposition and removal under natural light. After 24 hours of light exposure, the oil stains in Examples 1 and 2 were significantly decomposed and reduced, demonstrating average self-cleaning performance. However, the self-cleaning performance of Example 3 was relatively poor after 24 hours of light exposure.

[0216] The contact angle of Comparative Example 1 is lower than that of the embodiment due to the slightly poor flatness of the coating;

[0217] Comparative Example 2 (without TiN) has the worst self-cleaning property due to the high surface energy of the nickel layer;

[0218] Comparative Example 3 has no transition nickel layer and TiN is deposited directly on the zinc-plated layer. The bonding strength between the zinc layer and TiN is not as good as that between the nickel layer and TiN, resulting in interface defects, poor surface flatness, and reduced self-cleaning properties.

[0219] Comparative Example 4 does not involve the zinc immersion step and is directly nickel-plated. An oxide layer is formed on the surface of the copper-clad aluminum, resulting in poor bonding of the nickel-plated layer, pores in the plating layer, easy adsorption of impurities, and poor self-cleaning properties.

[0220] Comparative Example 5 lacks a heat treatment step, resulting in high internal stress in the coating, which may cause cracking or peeling, an incomplete surface, and reduced self-cleaning properties because the damaged areas are prone to dirt accumulation;

[0221] Comparative Example 6: The base material is different, and the aluminum alloy composition affects the uniformity of zinc immersion and nickel plating. The coating adhesion is not as good as copper-clad aluminum, the surface may be rougher, and the self-cleaning property is not as good as Example 2.

[0222] Comparative Example 7: Copper-aluminum alloy bar (aluminum 95-97%, copper 3-5%). The base material is an alloy rather than a composite copper-clad aluminum. The surface uniformity is poor, the coating adhesion is uneven, and self-cleaning is affected.

[0223] Comparative Example 8 Pure aluminum bar, the substrate is pure aluminum, the surface is easy to oxidize, the combination of zinc immersion and nickel plating is not as good as copper-coated aluminum (the presence of copper layer is more conducive to the adhesion of the plated layer), the plated layer has more defects, and the self-cleaning property is poorer.

[0224] The above-described embodiments only express several embodiments of the present application, and the description is more specific and detailed, but it should not be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the present application. It should be noted that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several modifications and improvements can be made, which are within the scope of protection of the present application.
