Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of capacitors, specifically relating to a coolant-resistant capacitor sealing plate and capacitor. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the domestic and international electronic information industries, such as high-end servers and data centers, the heat dissipation methods for electronic components have gradually shifted from traditional air cooling to spray or immersion liquid cooling. Commonly used coolants include hydrocarbon compounds, silicone oils, and fluorinated liquids. In this application scenario, aluminum electrolytic capacitors need to operate stably in an oil-containing environment. This places new demands on the sealing performance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors. The sealing material (i.e., the capacitor sealing plate) must not only prevent the evaporation of the internal electrolyte but also prevent oil and other impurities from the external environment from entering the capacitor element.

[0003] The capacitor sealing plate includes a sealing layer, which is typically made of a rubber material with a certain degree of elasticity. This layer, when fitted with the capacitor casing, creates a seal to prevent electrolyte leakage. The rubber material is generally selected from EPDM rubber, butyl rubber, silicone rubber, fluororubber, neoprene rubber, or hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber. Among these, hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber is receiving more attention due to its good heat resistance and excellent chemical corrosion resistance.

[0004] However, existing hydrogenated nitrile rubber materials are still difficult to handle various coolants. When the sealing plate is immersed in coolant, the rubber material that makes up the sealing plate will absorb the coolant and expand, or the coolant will seep into the capacitor element and cause adverse effects. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the incompatibility issues between existing hydrogenated nitrile rubber materials and various coolants, this invention provides a coolant-resistant capacitor sealing plate and capacitor.

[0006] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0016] Furthermore, the support layer is a phenolic resin laminate.

[0017] Furthermore, the hydrogenated nitrile rubber has an iodine value of 5-20 mg / 100mg and a Mooney viscosity of ML. (1+4) 100℃ corresponds to 30~160.

[0018] Furthermore, the preparation method of the hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber material includes the following steps:

[0019] S1. An nitrile rubber containing aromatic ethylene glycol structural units is prepared by copolymerizing unsaturated nitrile monomers, conjugated diene monomers and aromatic ethylene glycol monomers.

[0020] S2. The nitrile rubber prepared in step S1 is hydrogenated to form hydrogenated nitrile rubber;

The phenyl groups enhance thermal stability and mechanical strength, while the unsaturated acidic groups increase the polarity of the NBR, improving the oil (coolant) resistance of the capacitor sealing plate. Fillers in the NBR composition can increase the strength of the rubber material (capacitor sealing plate), while processing aids can improve the dispersibility and flowability of the components in the rubber composition, thereby improving molding processability.

[0080] Performance testing:

[0081] To better understand the present invention, the hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber and hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber materials prepared in the above embodiments and comparative examples were tested as follows. The test results of the iodine value, Mooney viscosity of the hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber and the tensile strength of the hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber material are shown in Table 1.

[0082] [Iodine value] The iodine value of hydrogenated nitrile rubber is determined according to JIS K6235.

[0083] [Mooney viscosity] The Mooney viscosity of hydrogenated nitrile rubber was determined according to JIS K6300.

[0084] [Tensile Strength Test] The tensile strength of hydrogenated nitrile rubber materials shall be tested according to the test method specified in GB / T 528-2009.

[0085] Table 1 Test Results

[0086]

[0087] [Immersion Test] Hydrogenated nitrile rubber material was cut into sheets with an area of ​​2*2 square centimeters and a thickness of 5 mm. The hardness and volume before immersion were tested. The sheets were immersed in test tubes containing different coolants: hydrocarbons (polyalphaolefins), silicone oils (polymethylphenylsiloxanes), and fluorinated liquids (1,1,2,3,3,3-hexafluoropropyl methyl ether). The test tubes were placed in an oven at a set temperature of 85°C for 200 hours. The test tubes were then removed from the oven and allowed to cool at room temperature for 1 hour. After cooling, the sheets were removed, and the test coolant adhering to the sheets was wiped off. The hardness and volume after immersion were then tested. The Shore A hardness (Shore hardness) was tested using a GSD-719K rubber hardness tester according to the test method specified in GB / T 531.1-2008. The test results are shown in Table 2. The rate of change in hardness and volume before and after immersion were calculated.

[0088] Hardness change rate (%) = (Hardness after immersion - Hardness before immersion) / Hardness before immersion * 100%;

[0089] Volume change rate (%) = (Volume after immersion - Volume before immersion) / Volume before immersion * 100%.

[0090] Table 2 Test results of immersion test

[0091]

[0092] As shown in the test results in Tables 1 and 2, this invention introduces aromatic vinyl acid structural units into hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber. The phenyl groups enhance thermal stability and mechanical strength, while the acidic groups increase the polarity of the hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber, thus improving the oil (coolant) resistance of the capacitor sealing plate. While meeting the strength requirements of the capacitor sealing plate, the hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber material not only exhibits good airtightness but also demonstrates excellent compatibility with various coolants. After immersion in different coolants, the absolute value of the hardness change rate is less than 5%, and the volume change rate is less than 3%.

[0093] The test results from Examples 1-11 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 show that: if the monomer used to prepare hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber does not contain aromatic vinyl acid monomers, the tensile strength of the hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber material is low, and its hardness and volume changes after immersion in different coolants are large, resulting in poor oil resistance. If too much aromatic vinyl acid monomer is used, the improvement in tensile strength and oil resistance of the hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber material is not significant, and the hardness and volume changes after immersion in different coolants are still relatively large, indicating poor compatibility with different coolants. However, the hardness and volume changes are smaller compared to Comparative Example 1. This also shows that the addition of aromatic vinyl acid monomers can improve compatibility with different coolants. When the amount of aromatic vinyl acid monomer added is within a suitable range, the tensile strength and compatibility with coolants of the hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber material can be effectively improved, meeting the strength requirements of the capacitor sealing plate.

[0094] As can be seen from Examples 1-11 and Comparative Examples 3 and 4, if the monomer used to prepare hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber is replaced with a monomer containing only acidic groups, the tensile strength of the hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber material is not enhanced. Moreover, its hardness and volume change are large after immersion in different coolants, and its compatibility with different coolants is poor. If it is replaced with a monomer containing only benzene rings, the tensile strength of the hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber material is improved, but its oil resistance is not significantly improved.

[0095] The present invention has been further described above with reference to specific embodiments. However, it should be understood that the specific description herein should not be construed as limiting the nature and scope of the present invention. Various modifications made to the above embodiments by those skilled in the art after reading this specification are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
