Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fiber technology, specifically to a material and preparation method for the external woven tube of high-pressure air ribs in an inflatable pontoon bridge. Background Technology

[0002] Polyester fiber is a high-performance synthetic polyester fiber with advantages such as high mechanical strength, good high-temperature resistance, and excellent waterproof performance. It can be made into high-performance fiber cloth, braided tubes, and fabrics, and has important applications in concrete, inflatable pontoon bridge components, and clothing fabrics. Although traditional polyester fiber has high strength, its low elongation at break and poor flexibility limit its practical applications.

[0003] Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) fiber is widely used due to its low density, high strength, and good flexibility. Composite fibers made by spinning polyethylene and polyester can combine the advantages of both polyethylene and polyester fibers. Patent CN119800554B discloses an ultrafine polyethylene / polyester composite fiber and its preparation method. Using polyethylene as the outer layer and modified polyester and compatibilizers such as poly(ethylene-co-glycidyl methacrylate)-g-polymethyl methacrylate graft copolymer as the core layer, the resulting composite fiber exhibits excellent properties. However, this patented composite fiber suffers from problems such as low elongation at break and low flexibility. Summary of the Invention

[0037] The tensile properties of polyester composite fibers were tested according to GB / T 14337-2022. The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0038] Table 1 Tensile properties of polyester composite fibers

[0039] Comparative Example 1 involved blending polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyethylene into fibers. Because these two are thermodynamically incompatible, the composite exhibited low breaking strength and elongation at break. In each example, polyvinyl benzoate was added. Polyvinyl benzoate contains polyethylene molecular chains and a large number of terephthalate groups similar to PET, allowing it to act as a compatibilizer and improve the compatibility between PET and polyethylene. The resulting composite fiber combines the strength of polyester fibers with the toughness of polyethylene fibers, exhibiting high breaking strength and elongation at break.

[0040] Comparative Example 2 uses polystyrene methyl methacrylate, which has a polystyrene molecular chain and poor compatibility with polyethylene. To improve the compatibility between polyethylene terephthalate and polyethylene, the composite fiber has lower breaking strength and elongation at break than in Example 1.

[0041] The alkenyl benzoate and polyvinyl benzoate of Comparative Example 3 have fewer benzoate groups, and their compatibilizing effect on polyethylene terephthalate and polyethylene is lower than that of polyvinyl benzoate of Example 1. The breaking strength and breaking elongation of the composite fiber are lower than those of Example 1.

[0042] Comparative Example 4 used conventional maleic anhydride-grafted polyethylene as a compatibilizer, and the composite fiber's breaking strength and elongation at break were also lower than those of Example 1.

[0043] The present invention also provides the following embodiments: Example 4: Polyester composite fiber (prepared in Example 1) was used as the weft yarn and basalt fiber as the warp yarn. The yarn was woven into shape by a weaving machine with a weft density of 43 threads / 10cm and a warp density of 218 threads / 10cm to obtain the external woven tube material for the high-pressure air rib of the inflatable pontoon bridge.

[0044] Example 5: Polyester composite fiber (prepared in Example 2) was used as the weft yarn and basalt fiber as the warp yarn. The material was woven into shape by a weaving machine with a weft density of 48 threads / 10cm and a warp density of 185 threads / 10cm to obtain the external woven tube material for the high-pressure air rib of the inflatable pontoon bridge.

[0045] Example 6: Polyester composite fiber (prepared in Example 3) was used as the weft yarn and basalt fiber as the warp yarn. The yarn was woven into shape by a weaving machine with a weft density of 54 threads / 10cm and a warp density of 232 threads / 10cm to obtain the external woven tube material for the high-pressure air rib of the inflatable pontoon bridge.

[0046] By blending polyester composite fibers with basalt fibers, a high-strength, tough, and wear-resistant external woven tube material for high-pressure air ribs of inflatable pontoons can be prepared.

[0047] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
