Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of cable technology, and more specifically, to an antioxidant cable protective sheath material and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Cables are carriers of electrical energy and communication, and are widely used in vehicle transportation, urban construction, aerospace, petrochemicals, subways, ships, and other fields. They are also an indispensable infrastructure in daily life. The outer surface of cables is often covered with a protective sheath, which protects the cable. The protective sheath is made by extrusion of a protective sheath material. The raw material for the protective sheath material is primarily polyethylene. Some researchers add antioxidant 1010 to the raw material to improve its aging resistance. However, in practical applications, the applicant found that the protective sheath material obtained by adding antioxidant 1010 exhibits a high loss rate of tensile strength after heat aging treatment at 135℃ for 240 hours, indicating poor aging resistance, which needs further improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To improve the aging resistance of protective sleeve materials, this application provides an antioxidant cable protective sleeve material and its preparation method.
[0004] In a first aspect, this application provides an antioxidant cable protective sleeve material, which adopts the following technical solution: An antioxidant cable protective sleeve material is mainly made of the following raw materials in parts by weight: 85-95 parts linear low-density polyethylene, 5-15 parts high-density polyethylene, 4-6 parts maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene, 1-3 parts organic peroxide, 4-6 parts modified graphene microsheets, 1-3 parts compound antioxidant, 9-11 parts flame retardant, 2-4 parts silane coupling agent, and 0.5-1.5 parts lubricant; The compound antioxidants are antioxidant 1010 and antioxidant 168, and the weight ratio of antioxidant 1010 to antioxidant 168 is 1:(1-3). The modified graphene microsheets are obtained by treating graphene microsheets with pre-prepared monomers and carboxymethyl chitosan. The pre-prepared monomers are prepared by 4,4'-carbonyl phthalic anhydride and N-aminoethyl-3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane.
[0005] The antioxidant cable protective sleeve material of this application, through the synergistic effect of the raw materials, exhibits high tensile strength (>42MPa) and low tensile strength loss rate and mass wear after 135℃×240h heat aging (<5% tensile strength loss rate and <15mg mass wear). This antioxidant cable protective sleeve material demonstrates high tensile strength, good aging resistance, and high wear resistance, meeting market demands.
[0006] The antioxidant cable protective sleeve material of this application optimizes the compounded antioxidants and selects antioxidants 1010 and 168 for compounding. Antioxidant 1010 can terminate the oxidation chain, and antioxidant 168 can decompose hydroperoxides. By utilizing their synergistic effect, the aging resistance is improved. Modified graphene microflakes are added to the raw materials, and pre-made monomers and carboxymethyl chitosan are grafted onto the surface of the graphene microflakes. Carbonyl, benzene ring, carboxyl, amide, primary amine, hydroxyl, carboxymethyl, and glucosamine groups are introduced into the surface of the graphene microflakes, increasing the number of branches and groups. This allows the modified graphene microflakes to be uniformly dispersed in the protective sleeve material, and also increases compatibility, bonding force, and integrity, improves tensile strength, and reduces mass wear. At the same time, it can reduce voids and form a barrier, blocking gas and water vapor pathways, delaying oxygen penetration, improving barrier properties, and reducing the thermal aging tensile strength loss rate. As a result, the protective sleeve material has better tensile strength, aging resistance, and wear resistance.
[0007] Optionally, the modified graphene microsheets are prepared using the following method: S1. Mix organic solvent and 4,4'-carbonyl phthalic anhydride, and add N-aminoethyl-3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane dropwise. The addition time of N-aminoethyl-3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane is 40-80 min. After the addition is completed, continue stirring for 2-4 h, and then distill under reduced pressure to obtain the pre-prepared monomer for later use. S2. At a temperature of 80-90℃, water and graphene microsheets are mixed. The pre-prepared monomer is added for the first time and stirred for 1-3 hours. The pre-prepared monomer is added for the second time and stirred for 1-3 hours. The pre-prepared monomer is added for the third time and stirred for 1-3 hours. The pH value is adjusted to 9-12. Then, carboxymethyl chitosan and sodium trimetaphosphate are added and stirred for 2-4 hours. The mixture is filtered, washed, and dried to obtain modified graphene microsheets.
[0008] Optionally, the weight ratio of the graphene microsheets, the first addition of pre-prepared monomer, the second addition of pre-prepared monomer, the third addition of pre-prepared monomer, and carboxymethyl chitosan is 10:(0.4-0.6):(0.4-0.6):(0.8-1.2):(0.7-1.1).
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, 4,4'-carbonyl phthalic anhydride contains one carbonyl group, two benzene rings, and two anhydride groups, while N-aminoethyl-3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane contains three siloxy groups, one primary amine group, and one secondary amine group. In the organic system, 4,4'-carbonyl phthalic anhydride and N-aminoethyl-3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane are contacted, and the anhydride group and secondary amine group react to form one carboxyl group and one amide group, i.e., the molar ratio of 4,4'-carbonyl phthalic anhydride to N-aminoethyl-3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane is 1:2, and a pre-prepared monomer is obtained. At this time, the pre-prepared monomer contains one carbonyl group, two benzene rings, six siloxy groups, two primary amine groups, two carboxyl groups, and two amide groups.
[0010] In an aqueous system, graphene microsheets are mixed with a pre-prepared monomer added initially. Using siloxy groups, the pre-prepared monomer is grafted onto the surface of the graphene microsheets, introducing primary amine and carboxyl groups. A second addition of the pre-prepared monomer causes the primary amine groups on the graphene microsheet surface to react with the carboxyl groups of the pre-prepared monomer, introducing more primary amine groups. Simultaneously, the carboxyl groups on the graphene microsheet surface react with the primary amine groups of the pre-prepared monomer, introducing more carboxyl groups. Similarly, a third addition of the pre-prepared monomer causes a reaction between carboxyl and primary amine groups, achieving grafting and increasing the number of branches and functional groups on the graphene microsheet surface. Then, carboxymethyl chitosan and sodium trimetaphosphate are added. Using sodium trimetaphosphate, the primary amine groups on the graphene microsheet surface and the primary amine and hydroxyl groups in carboxymethyl chitosan crosslink, achieving grafting and thus obtaining modified graphene microsheets.
[0011] Using the preparation method of this application, a pre-prepared monomer is prepared in advance, and then the pre-prepared monomer is grafted onto the surface of graphene microsheets in three steps, followed by grafting carboxymethyl chitosan. That is, grafting is carried out on the surface of graphene microsheets in steps, which facilitates the preparation of modified graphene microsheets and improves the use effect of modified graphene microsheets, thereby enhancing the tensile strength, aging resistance and wear resistance of the protective sleeve material.

Furthermore, when the weight ratio of sodium trimetaphosphate to graphene microsheets is selected within the above range, the expected results can be achieved.

[0017] Optionally, the weight ratio of the 4,4'-carbonyl phthalic anhydride to the organic solvent is (9-11):(70-130). In several embodiments, the weight ratio of the 4,4'-carbonyl phthalic anhydride to the organic solvent is 10:100. It can also be set to 9:70, 9:100, 9:130, 10:70, 10:130, 11:70, 11:100, 11:130, etc., as needed, but is not limited to the listed values; other unlisted values within this range are also applicable.

[0062] Performance testing (1) Take the protective sleeve materials obtained in Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-7 respectively, and perform the following performance tests on the protective sleeve materials. The test results are shown in Table 2.
[0063] In particular, the tensile strength of the protective sheath material was tested in accordance with GB / T 2951.11-2008 "General Test Methods for Insulation and Sheath Materials of Cables and Optical Cables - Part 11: General Test Methods for Thickness and Dimensional Measurement and Mechanical Properties".
[0064] According to GB / T2951.12-2008 "General Test Methods for Insulation and Sheath Materials of Cables and Optical Fibers - Part 12: General Test Methods - Thermal Aging Test Method", the protective sheath material was thermally aged for 240 hours at a temperature of 135℃, and the retention rate of thermal aging tensile strength and the loss rate of thermal aging tensile strength were calculated.
[0065] Heat aging tensile strength retention rate (%) = (Tensile strength of protective sleeve material after heat aging / Tensile strength of protective sleeve material before heat aging) × 100%. Heat aging tensile strength loss rate (%) = 100% - Heat aging tensile strength retention rate.
[0066] According to GB / T 3960-2016 "Test Method for Sliding Friction and Wear of Plastics", the mass wear of the protective sleeve material was tested.
[0067] Table 2 Detection Results As shown in Table 2, the protective sleeve material of this application exhibits high tensile strength, ranging from 42.3 to 47.6 MPa, demonstrating its advantage of high tensile strength. Furthermore, after heat aging treatment at 135℃ for 240 hours, it maintains high heat-aged tensile strength and a high heat-aged tensile strength retention rate, with a heat-aged tensile strength of 41.6-47.2 MPa and a heat-aged tensile strength retention rate of 95.6-99.2%. At this point, the heat-aged tensile strength loss rate is 0.8-4.4%, demonstrating its advantage of high aging resistance. Moreover, it exhibits low mass wear, with a mass wear of 11.3-14.6 mg, demonstrating its advantage of high abrasion resistance. The protective sleeve material of this application, through the synergistic effect of the raw materials, possesses the characteristics of high tensile strength, good aging resistance, and high abrasion resistance, meeting market demands.
[0068] Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were compared. Antioxidant 1010 was added to the protective sleeve material of Comparative Example 1; antioxidant 168 was added to the protective sleeve material of Comparative Example 2; and both antioxidants 1010 and 168 were added to the protective sleeve material of Example 1. This shows that simultaneously adding antioxidants 1010 and 168 to the protective sleeve material, and utilizing their synergistic effect, significantly reduces the loss rate of thermal aging tensile strength and improves the aging resistance of the protective sleeve material.
[0069] Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 were compared. Graphene microflakes were added to the protective sleeve material of Comparative Example 3; modified graphene microflakes were added to the protective sleeve material of Example 1. This shows that modifying the graphene microflakes improves its performance and enhances the properties of the protective sleeve material.
[0070] Example 1 and Comparative Examples 4-7 were compared. The modified graphene microsheets of Comparative Example 4 were obtained by treating graphene microsheets with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane; the modified graphene microsheets of Comparative Example 5 were obtained by treating graphene microsheets with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and carboxymethyl chitosan; the modified graphene microsheets of Comparative Example 6 were obtained by treating graphene microsheets with a pre-prepared monomer; the modified graphene microsheets of Comparative Example 7 were obtained by treating graphene microsheets with carboxymethyl chitosan; and the modified graphene microsheets of Example 1 were obtained by treating graphene microsheets with a pre-prepared monomer and carboxymethyl chitosan. This demonstrates that grafting pre-prepared monomers and carboxymethyl chitosan onto the surface of graphene microflakes during the modification process increases the amount of branches and functional groups. This not only improves the dispersibility of the modified graphene microflakes but also enhances their bonding strength and overall integrity, increases tensile strength, reduces mass wear, reduces voids, blocks gas and moisture pathways, and lowers the thermal aging tensile strength loss rate. Consequently, the protective sleeve material exhibits superior tensile strength, aging resistance, and wear resistance.
