Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of thermal interface materials, and relates to an adhesive material and a preparation method and application thereof, in particular to a near-zero thermal expansion coefficient heat-conducting adhesive and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the wide application of advanced optoelectronic systems such as high-energy lasers, high-power microwaves, high-computing artificial intelligence and high-density core particle integration in many fields, a large amount of heat is generated during system operation, which seriously affects the performance stability, operation efficiency and service life of the system. Therefore, developing a material with excellent thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion coefficient has become the focus of current research.
[0003] Especially in precision optoelectronic devices, thermal stress caused by thermal expansion mismatch between heterogeneous materials may lead to reliability problems such as interface contact failure and optical path deviation. Therefore, it is urgent to develop an adhesive with high thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion to meet the long-term stable application requirements of optoelectronic systems under harsh working conditions.
[0004] In the field of heat-conducting adhesives, for example, CN118617776A discloses a heat-conducting composite material suitable for thermal management of optoelectronic devices. By modifying the inorganic heat-conducting filler in the polymer matrix, the thermal conductivity of the material is significantly improved.
[0005] Although various techniques have been reported to improve the thermal conductivity and thermal resistance of adhesives, the problem of high thermal expansion coefficient of heat-conducting adhesives has not been solved. Even though some strategies can reduce the thermal expansion coefficient of heat-conducting adhesives, they are still far from the near-zero thermal expansion coefficient. The difficulty lies in the fact that the control of thermal conductivity and thermal expansion coefficient depends on the addition of a large amount of different inorganic fillers, and the total amount of fillers is limited. Therefore, high thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion are contradictory. SUMMARY
[0006] In view of the lack of heat-conducting adhesives with near-zero thermal expansion coefficient in the prior art, the present application provides a heat-conducting adhesive with near-zero thermal expansion coefficient and a preparation method and application thereof. The present application solves the triangular contradiction of thermal conductivity, thermal expansion coefficient and bonding performance by designing a core-shell adhesive material. The core layer is a low-expansion inorganic filler modified by a liquid metal, which plays a role in heat conduction and low thermal expansion. The shell layer is an ultrathin polymer network, which plays a role in bonding. This core-shell structure adhesive material can be prepared by a coaxial needle head extrusion.
[0007] The technical scheme of the present application is as follows:
[0008] The heat-conducting adhesive with near-zero thermal expansion coefficient described in the present application is a core-shell adhesive:
[0009] The core layer is a liquid metal modified inorganic powder material with heat conduction and expansion inhibition functions, and is realized by a unique mechanochemical modification treatment method.
[0010] The shell layer is a polymer solution material with bonding function, which is obtained by mixing a polymer matrix with a solvent and an additive according to a specified ratio, and the mixing conditions are vacuum, mixing time of 1-30 min, mixing rate of 1000 rpm, and mixing equipment of a stirred tank or a homogenizer.
[0011] The core-shell structure adhesive provided by the application has the following characteristics:
[0012] The core layer is a liquid metal modified inorganic powder filler, the content of liquid metal is low, and the thickness is 50-1000 μm.
[0013] The shell layer is a polymer layer, and the thickness is 0.01-1 μm.
[0014] In particular, theoretically, the core-shell structure adhesive will be blocked in the heat conduction path due to the low thermal conductivity and high thickness of the pure polymer shell layer, and the thermal conductivity will be greatly reduced.
[0015] The purpose of the application is achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0023] The coefficient of thermal expansion is 4×10 -6 K -1 ~8×10 -6 K -1 ;
[0024] The shear strength is 5.0 MPa to 9.9 MPa.
[0025] Furthermore, the polymer matrix is at least one of epoxy resin, acrylic resin, silicone resin, polyimide resin, and polysilazane resin; the solvent is at least one of water, ethanol, acetone, N-methylpyrrolidone, ethyl acetate, cyclohexanone, and xylene; and the additives are crosslinking agents and initiators required for the corresponding polymer matrix.
[0026] Furthermore, the liquid metal is at least one of mercury, bismuth, gallium, tin, indium, rubidium, and cesium; the inorganic filler is at least one of low expansion coefficient fillers or negative expansion coefficient fillers such as tungsten zirconium phosphate, zirconium tungstate, fused silica, glass fiber, and bismuth nickel iron oxide.
[0027] Furthermore, the adhesive skin has a porous and ultra-thin structure after curing.
[0028] This invention also relates to a method for preparing a near-zero thermal expansion coefficient thermally conductive adhesive, comprising the following steps: preparing raw materials for the adhesive core layer, preparing raw materials for the adhesive skin layer, and co-extruding the adhesive skin layer and the core layer via a syringe.
[0029] S1, the raw material for preparing the adhesive core layer:
[0030] The raw material for preparing the adhesive core layer is obtained by coating the surface of the inorganic filler with liquid metal and then performing mechanochemical treatment;
[0031] The working condition parameters of the mechanochemical treatment include: using a treatment device under the conditions of a temperature of 10-200 DEG C, a pressure of 0.1-10 MPa, and a time of 1-60 min;
[0032] S2, the raw material for preparing the adhesive skin layer:
[0033] The polymer matrix, solvent and additives are mixed according to the set proportion, the mixing condition is vacuum, the mixing time is 1-30 min, and the mixing rate is 100-4000 rpm;
[0034] S3, the adhesive skin layer and the core layer are compounded through a double-layer coaxial needle tube:
[0035] The raw material of the adhesive skin layer is fed into the outer layer of the double-layer coaxial needle tube, and the raw material of the adhesive core layer is fed into the inner layer of the double-layer coaxial needle tube, and the needle tube simultaneously extrudes the two kinds of raw materials to obtain the adhesive with core-shell structure;
[0036] The double-layer coaxial needle tube has a structure of extremely thin skin layer and extremely thick core layer, the inner diameter of the inner ring of the needle tube core layer is 50-1000 μm, and the inner diameter of the inner ring of the skin layer is 50.01-1000.01 μm, that is, the thickness (0.01-1 μm) of the skin layer is less than 1 / 500 of the thickness (50-1000 μm) of the core layer.
[0037] Further, the treatment device in S1 is at least one of a flat press, a ball mill and a grinder.
[0038] Further, the mixing in S2 is using a stirred tank or a homogenizer.
[0039] Further, the shape of the double-layer coaxial needle tube in S3 is one of circular, square, triangular or special-shaped. The application also relates to the application of the above-mentioned near-zero thermal expansion coefficient thermal conductive adhesive, which is used for packaging optoelectronic devices, and the performance of the optoelectronic devices is very stable.
[0040] Further, the packaging interface of the optoelectronic device involves one of the interface between silicon-based materials and metal materials, the interface between carbon-based materials and metal materials, and the interface between silicon-based materials.
[0041] Further, the encapsulation interface of the photoelectric device is cured by heating / illumination combined with pressure using the above-mentioned near-zero thermal expansion coefficient heat-conducting adhesive, on the one hand, the solvent in the surface layer of the polymer of the adhesive is fully volatilized and fully cured, on the other hand, the thickness of the skin layer of the adhesive is further reduced by removing the solvent in the skin layer of the adhesive and applying external pressure, so that the core layer of the adhesive infiltrates the porous structure of the skin layer of the adhesive, and the liquid metal and inorganic filler can penetrate through the entire adhesive layer, thereby maximizing the thermal conductivity and reducing the thermal expansion.
[0042] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects:
[0043] 1. The near-zero thermal expansion coefficient heat-conducting adhesive provided by the present application is a core-shell adhesive, the surface polymer layer has an extremely thin and porous structure, and the extremely thin and porous structure of the surface layer enables the adhesive to achieve good surface bonding strength at a very low content of polymer material, while the core layer is filled with 100% content of liquid metal modified negative expansion coefficient filler, thereby achieving extremely high thermal conductivity and extremely low thermal expansion coefficient. This structure can break the contradiction between low thermal resistance (27K mm² W -1 ~40K mm² W -1 ), low thermal expansion performance (4×10 -6 K -1 ~8×10 -6 K -1 ) and high bonding performance (i.e. shear strength of 5.0MPa~9.9MPa) of the heat interface material heat-conducting adhesive in the past.
[0044] 2. The preparation method of the near-zero thermal expansion coefficient heat-conducting adhesive provided by the present application is different from the simple blending preparation method of traditional single-component adhesive and two-component adhesive, but is inspired by the coaxial spinning technology, and a coaxial needle double-layer co-extrusion core-shell adhesive preparation technology is developed. This technology is simple to operate and easy to produce continuously, and can simply and quickly produce a large amount of core-shell structure adhesive. More particularly, the core-shell structure has an extremely thin and porous surface layer, so the amount of polymer is extremely low, the amount of functional filler is extremely large, and the functionality (heat conduction and thermal expansion inhibition) of the adhesive is very prominent.
[0045] 3. The photoelectric device encapsulated by the near-zero thermal expansion heat-conducting adhesive provided by the present application not only has the advantages of high-efficiency heat dissipation brought by the heat-conducting adhesive of the prior art, but also has an additional ultra-low thermal expansion coefficient (4×10 -6 K -1 ~8×10 -6 K -1 ), which can greatly reduce thermal stress and structural deformation and ensure long-term stability of the photoelectric device under wide temperature variation.
