Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of porous metal materials, and more particularly to a composite material based on thermosetting resin and porous metal matrix and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Thermosetting resin is a polymer matrix that forms an irreversible three-dimensional network through heating or the action of a curing agent. It is then used as a structural framework of porous aluminum metal and impregnated with thermosetting resin to form a lightweight composite system. This composite matrix can provide high rigidity, heat resistance and dimensional stability, and also has the thermal and electrical conductivity of metals.
[0003] In existing technologies, the lack of chemical bonding in traditional physical roughening of aluminum matrix leads to fragile interfacial bonding and easy delamination during high and low temperature cycling. At the same time, a single filler cannot meet the multifunctional requirements of thermal conductivity, reinforcement, etc., and its functional synergy is poor. In addition, the mismatch between resin viscosity and pore size under high porosity leads to pore filling defects, which in turn limits its application range.
[0004] Therefore, based on the relevant technologies mentioned above, there is an urgent need to develop a composite material based on thermosetting resin and porous metal matrix and its preparation method. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this invention is to propose a composite material based on thermosetting resin and porous metal matrix and its preparation method, so as to solve the problems of weak interfacial bonding, poor functional synergy and pore filling defects in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a composite material based on thermosetting resin and porous metal matrix and a method for preparing the same.
[0007] A composite material based on thermosetting resin and porous metal matrix, comprising the following components in parts by weight: 20-25 parts porous aluminum matrix, 50-55 parts modified epoxy resin, 6-10 parts phenolic resin, 4-6 parts liquid crystal epoxy monomer, 4-6 parts modified boron nitride, and 10-14 parts aramid fiber.
[0008] Preferably, the porous aluminum particles are prepared using the following steps:
[0009] Step A1: Place the aluminum alloy plate in acetone solvent and ultrasonically clean it for 10-20 minutes. Then place it in a drying oven, heat it to 70-90℃, and dry it for 1-3 hours. Next, place it under a fiber pulse laser with a power of 250-350w to create holes with a diameter of 150-250μm. After the holes are created, add aluminum powder, pressurize it to 45-55MPa, and hold the pressure for 4-6 minutes to obtain the aluminum substrate.
[0010] Step A2: Add 0.8wt% titanium dihydrogen pore-forming agent to the aluminum matrix, ball mill and mix for 20-40 min, place in a tube furnace, introduce nitrogen gas, heat to 460-500℃, sinter for 20-40 min, reduce pressure to -0.1MPa, heat to 660-700℃, sinter for 40-50 min, after sintering is complete, cool to 20-30℃ to obtain porous aluminum;
[0011] Step A3: Add porous aluminum to a solution of 10wt% sulfuric acid and 2wt% nitric acid, heat to 30-50℃, soak for 8-12 minutes, rinse with deionized water, blow dry with nitrogen, remove, put into 0.1mol / L cesium nitrate and 1.5wt% phytic acid, soak for 10-20 minutes, heat to 20-30℃, rinse with deionized water, dry, and obtain etched porous aluminum;
[0012] Step A4: Under a nitrogen and argon atmosphere, the etched porous aluminum is placed in a plasma chamber at a power of 350-450W for 4-6 minutes. Then it is placed in an ethanol solution of 3wt% modified silane coupling agent, heated to 90-110℃, and refluxed for 1-3 hours. After cleaning with ethanol and drying, a porous aluminum substrate is obtained.
[0013] Step A5: Under a nitrogen atmosphere, add the porous aluminum matrix into a ball mill, add zirconia grinding balls and zinc stearate lubricant, grind at 250-350 rpm for 15-30 minutes, sieve, the particle size is 2-3 mm, dry to obtain porous aluminum particles.
[0014] By constructing a micron-scale honeycomb structure on the surface of an aluminum substrate through chemical etching, a mechanical anchoring effect is generated when the resin penetrates. At the same time, the silane coupling agent forms Si-O-Al covalent bonds at the interface. Combined with the energy dissipation capability of dynamic sulfur bonds, the interfacial shear strength is improved compared with traditional materials. Moreover, this mechanism works synergistically from micro-roughening to molecular bonding, completely solving the problem of delamination failure.
[0015] Preferably, the mass ratio of aluminum alloy plate to aluminum powder in step A1 is 1:0.24-0.26;
[0016] The mass ratio of aluminum matrix to pore-forming agent in step A2 is 1:0.006-0.01;

[0019] The mass ratio of the etched porous aluminum to the ethanol solution of 3wt% modified silane coupling agent in step A4 is 1:7.8-8.2;
[0020] The mass ratio of the porous aluminum matrix, zirconium oxide and lubricant in step A5 is 1:2-3:0.005-0.01.
[0021] Preferably, the modified epoxy resin is prepared using the following steps:
[0022] Step B1: Add 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide to toluene solvent, heat to 60-80℃, add bisphenol A type epoxy resin, heat to 110-120℃ to obtain a mixed solution.

[0027] Step C1: Add carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes to Tris-HCl buffer, sonicate for 20-40 min at 700-900 W, add dopamine hydrochloride, purge with nitrogen, heat to 20-30 °C, react for 10-14 h, centrifuge, wash, and dry to obtain modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes.
[0028] Step C2: Add boron nitride to a mixed solution of ethanol and deionized water, stir and disperse, add ammonia, sonicate for 1-3 hours, add trimethyl borate, heat to 70-90℃, react for 2-4 hours, centrifuge and purify to obtain hydroxylated boron nitride suspension;
[0029] Step C3: Add the modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes to deionized water, then add the hydroxylated boron nitride suspension, sonicate for 20-40 min, place in a high-pressure reactor, heat to 170-190℃, react for 5-7 h, cool, filter, and vacuum dry to obtain modified boron nitride.
[0030] Magnetic field induction causes the core-shell filler to align in a specific direction, while the boron nitride shell reduces phonon scattering and creates an efficient heat conduction path. Flow field shearing causes the aramid fibers to align axially, forming a reinforcing network. This spatial ordering decouples and optimizes thermal conductivity and reinforcement at the molecular scale, overcoming the bottleneck of functional incompatibilities in traditional composite materials.
[0031] Preferably, the mass ratio of carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes to dopamine hydrochloride in step C1 is 1:1.8-2.2.
[0032] In step C2, the mass ratio of boron nitride, trimethyl borate, and ammonia is 1:0.05-0.07:0.2-0.3.
[0033] The volume ratio of ethanol to deionized water in step C2 is 1:1;
[0034] The mass ratio of the modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes to the hydroxylated boron nitride suspension in step C3 is 1:0.45-0.55.
[0035] Preferably, the preparation steps of the modified silane coupling agent are as follows:
[0036] Step D1: Under a nitrogen atmosphere, γ-chloropropyltriethoxysilane and thiourea are added to anhydrous ethanol solvent, stirred and dissolved, then tetrabutylammonium bromide catalyst is added, the temperature is raised to 70-80℃, and the reaction is stirred for 3-5 hours to obtain the reaction mixture.
[0037] Step D2: Add the reaction mixture to a beaker, heat to 30-50℃, add 30% sodium hydroxide solution, heat to 60-70℃, reflux and stir for 1-3 hours. Once the reaction is complete, wash with neutralized water, and distill under reduced pressure to obtain the modified silane coupling agent.
[0038] The mass ratio of γ-chloropropyltriethoxysilane, thiourea, and catalyst is 1:0.42-0.45:0.004-0.006;
[0039] The mass ratio of the reaction mixture to the sodium hydroxide solution is 1:0.14-0.16.
[0040] A method for preparing a composite material based on thermosetting resin and porous metal matrix, wherein the preparation steps are as follows:
[0041] Step S1: Add modified epoxy resin, phenolic resin and liquid crystal ring monomer to a reaction vessel, heat to 50-70℃, stir for 50-70 min, add modified boron nitride and aramid fiber, place in a 1.1-1.3T vertical magnetic field, stir for 20-40 min to obtain a mixture;
[0042] Step S2: Add porous aluminum particles to the mixture, heat to 50-70℃, reduce pressure to -0.095MPa, react for 20-40min, introduce nitrogen, pressurize to 5.8-6.2MPa, heat to 75-85℃, react for 40-50min to obtain the preform;
[0043] Step S3: Place the blank into a tube furnace, heat to 75-85℃, sinter for 50-70 min, heat to 110-130℃, sinter for 50-70 min, heat to 140-160℃, sinter for 100-140 min, heat to 170-190℃, sinter for 100-140 min, sintering complete, cool to 50-70℃, demold and cure to obtain the composite material;
[0044] The first-stage low-pressure impregnation preferentially fills millimeter-sized macropores, while the second-stage high-pressure infiltration overcomes the capillary resistance of micropores. Furthermore, through dynamic matching of resin viscosity and pore size, the pore filling rate is improved, performance fluctuations are reduced, and the performance of large-size components is homogenized. In addition, the phosphorus-based structure in 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide can decompose at high temperatures to generate PO· radicals, interrupting the combustion chain reaction in the gas phase. Simultaneously, the self-assembled nanodomains of the liquid crystal epoxy pin crack propagation, and the phosphorus-oxygen crosslinking network increases the glass transition temperature. Through the synergy of these three factors, the strength retention rate of the material in high-temperature environments is improved, resulting in a higher heat resistance limit compared to traditional materials.
[0045] Preferably, the mass ratio of modified epoxy resin, phenolic resin, liquid crystal ring monomer, modified boron nitride, and aramid fiber in step S1 is 1:0.3-0.34:0.18-0.22:0.18-0.22:0.45-0.50.

[0161] Data Analysis:
[0162] As can be seen from Tables 1-4, the composite material based on thermosetting resin and porous metal matrix prepared by the present invention has ultra-high interfacial bonding strength, better thermal conductivity, better electrical conductivity, better flame retardancy and extreme environmental stability.
[0163] In contrast, Comparative Example 1, due to the lack of magnetic field and flow field orientation processes, experienced a 44% decrease in interfacial shear strength, a 51% decrease in thermal conductivity, and a 45% reduction in impact resistance. This was caused by the disordered distribution of fillers interrupting the heat conduction path, the lack of axial arrangement of aramid fibers leading to the failure of the reinforcing network, and stress concentration caused by pore filling defects.
[0164] Comparative Example 2, due to the lack of modified silane coupling agent, resulted in a strength retention rate of only 64.1% after salt spray and a flame retardant rating of V-1. This was because KH-550 silane has low Si-O-Al bond hydrolysis energy, making it prone to breakage in humid and hot environments; it also lacks a sulfur bond toughening mechanism and cannot form a PON flame retardant composite.
[0165] Comparative Example 3, due to the lack of modified epoxy resin, resulted in a strength retention rate of only 77.4% after high temperature and a flame retardancy rating of V-2. This was because ordinary epoxy resin lacked phosphorus-based free radicals to interrupt the combustion chain, and the insufficient crosslinking density led to deterioration of thermal stability and inability to catalyze char formation.
[0166] Comparative Example 4 suffered a 50% drop in compressive strength due to the lack of stepped pressure impregnation, and the thermal conductivity was only 9.1 W / (m·K) due to pore filling defects. This was because single-stage vacuum impregnation prevented the resin from overcoming the capillary resistance of micropores, and the macropores were not fully filled, resulting in excessive porosity. The interruption of graded densification weakened the structural continuity.
