Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic product housing technology, specifically to a back cover laminate with improved bending performance and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] In the rapidly evolving consumer electronics industry, the casing materials for 3C devices such as mobile phones, tablets, and laptops are undergoing a transformation from traditional metals (such as aluminum alloys and stainless steel) to epoxy composite materials. While traditional metal casings possess excellent mechanical properties, they are also dense and heavy. Furthermore, the electromagnetic shielding properties of metals increasingly clash with the compatibility of wireless charging and 5G signal transmission. Epoxy composite materials, with their advantages of only 50%-70% the density of aluminum alloys, flexible molding processes, and customizable electromagnetic parameters, are gradually becoming the mainstream choice for high-end 3C device casings.
[0003] However, the widespread application of epoxy composite materials has also presented new challenges to their mechanical properties, such as bending properties. For handheld devices such as mobile phones and tablets, the casing is constantly subjected to complex bending stresses during daily use: when holding a mobile phone with one hand, the mid-frame area needs to resist the radial bending moment applied by the fingers; when a tablet is placed on a table, the edges may experience local bending deformation due to external impact; during the opening and closing of a laptop, the casing part where the screen connects to the body is under alternating bending loads for a long time.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues and improve bending performance, this application provides a back cover laminate with improved bending performance and its preparation method. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a back cover laminate with improved bending performance and its preparation method, so as to solve the problems raised in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A back cover laminate with improved bending performance, wherein the back cover laminate comprises, from the inside out, a silicon carbide prepreg layer, a puncture-resistant layer, another silicon carbide prepreg layer, a base layer, a pad printing layer, an encapsulation layer, and a protective layer, wherein the puncture-resistant layer and the silicon carbide prepreg layer are cured together with epoxy resin.
[0007] In a more optimized manner, the silicon carbide prepreg layer is composed of silicon carbide fiber cloth impregnated with epoxy resin.
[0008] More preferably, the silicon carbide fiber cloth is a dopamine-coated silicon carbide ceramic fiber cloth, and its preparation method includes the following steps: S1: Silicon carbide ceramic fibers are arranged in an aqueous solution of cobalt hydroxide nanosheets, immersed for 2-3 hours, removed and dried to obtain silicon carbide ceramic fiber cloth loaded with cobalt hydroxide nanosheets; S2: Take silica and deionized water, disperse them evenly to obtain a silica aqueous solution; take tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane hydrochloride and deionized water, add sodium hydroxide solution, adjust the pH to 8.5 to obtain Tris buffer, add dopamine hydrochloride, stir evenly to obtain a mixed solution; S3: Add silicon carbide ceramic fiber cloth loaded with cobalt hydroxide nanosheets to deionized water and soak for 1-2 hours. Then add a mixed solution and soak for 22-26 hours. Take it out and coat the surface with a silica aqueous solution. Place it in an environment with a humidity of 30% for 24-26 hours to obtain silicon carbide ceramic fiber cloth coated with dopamine.
[0009] A more optimized method for preparing the silicon carbide ceramic fiber cloth is as follows: A mixed solution of xylene, tetrahydrofuran, and dimethylformamide is taken; polyaluminum carbide silane is added to the mixed solution and stirred for 6-7 hours; then 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and polyvinylpyrrolidone are added and stirred until homogeneous to obtain a polyaluminum carbide silane solution; the polyaluminum carbide silane solution is subjected to electrospinning with an output voltage of 20 kV, an injection flow rate of 2 mL / h, a roller receiving distance of 8 cm, and a spinning time of 2 hours; the solution is dried, heated to 200-210℃ and held for 3-3.5 hours, and then pyrolyzed under a nitrogen atmosphere; followed by washing and drying to obtain the silicon carbide ceramic fiber cloth.
[0010] A more optimized method for preparing the cobalt hydroxide nanosheets is as follows: take cobalt nitrate hexahydrate and deionized water, stir evenly, add triethylamine, heat to 175-180℃, react for 6-7 hours, cool to room temperature, wash and dry to obtain cobalt hydroxide nanosheets.
[0011] A more optimized method for preparing the epoxy resin solution is as follows: Under nitrogen protection, modified epoxy resin was melted, and amino-terminated hyperbranched polyamide and 2,5-dipyridine carboxylic acid were added and stirred evenly to obtain modified epoxy resin; isocyanate-modified epoxy resin, modified epoxy resin and dicyandiamide were mixed evenly to obtain epoxy resin solution.
[0012] More optimally, the puncture-resistant layer is composed of Cordura fiber woven fabric impregnated with epoxy resin.
[0013] Ideally, the pad printing layer is one of a textured epoxy resin layer, a polyurethane layer, or an acrylic layer.
[0014] Ideally, the encapsulation layer is one of a transparent epoxy resin layer, a polyurethane layer, or an acrylic layer.
[0015] A method for preparing a back cover laminate with improved bending performance includes the following steps: Step 1: Apply epoxy resin solution evenly to the surface of dopamine-coated silicon carbide ceramic fiber cloth, and dry it to obtain a silicon carbide prepreg layer. Step 2: Apply epoxy resin solution evenly to the surface of Cordura fiber woven fabric and allow it to dry to obtain a puncture-resistant layer; Step 3: Stack the silicon carbide prepreg layer, the puncture-resistant layer, and the silicon carbide prepreg layer in sequence, and hot press them to obtain a laminate. Step 4: Sequentially apply the underlayer, pad printing layer, encapsulation layer, and protective layer to the laminate to obtain the mobile phone back cover laminate.

Silicon carbide fiber has high tensile strength and can provide excellent rigid support for the laminate, thereby improving the bending strength of the epoxy composite material and meeting the performance requirements of 3C shells.
[0017] This application uses modified epoxy resin as the matrix and incorporates silicon carbide ceramic fiber cloth coated with dopamine, so that the shell material not only has sufficient rigidity to avoid significant deformation during use, but also has excellent toughness to prevent sudden brittle fracture, thus meeting the requirements of "deformation resistance" and "fracture resistance".
[0018] 2. This application loads cobalt hydroxide nanosheets onto silicon carbide ceramic fiber cloth to enhance the strength of the laminate. Then, dopamine is used to coat it, and a silica-containing micro / nano structure is formed on it using an aqueous silica solution, thereby enhancing the surface hydrophobicity. The dopamine-coated silicon carbide ceramic fiber cloth has amino groups that can react with the amino and epoxy groups in the modified epoxy resin, enhancing the bonding force between the two.
[0019] 3. This application enhances the flame retardant properties of epoxy resin by adding 2,5-dipyridinecarboxylic acid to introduce pyridine groups into the modified epoxy resin. Detailed Implementation

[0028] experiment: The laminates obtained in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were subjected to performance tests. A three-point bending test was performed on the samples according to GB / T 3356-2014 to test the bending performance of the laminates. The laminates were made into 50mm × 10mm samples, and the mass m1 before immersion was recorded. The samples were then immersed in deionized water for 24 hours at a test temperature of 25℃. After removal and drying, the mass m2 after immersion was recorded, and the water absorption rate was calculated. The test results are shown in Table 1. Table 1: Conclusion: The data comparison in the table shows that, in Comparative Example 1, without the addition of cobalt hydroxide nanosheets, the mechanical properties of the laminate decreased. In Comparative Example 2, without the addition of dopamine for modification, the mechanical properties of the laminate decreased, but the surface water absorption rate increased. In Comparative Example 3, without the addition of silica, the mechanical properties of the laminate decreased, but the surface water absorption rate increased. The hydrophobic properties of the laminate deteriorated. The laminates prepared in Examples 1-3 had cobalt hydroxide nanosheets loaded onto silicon carbide ceramic fiber cloth, which enhanced the strength of the laminate. Then, dopamine was used to coat it, and a silica-containing micro / nano structure was formed on it using a silica aqueous solution, which enhanced the surface hydrophobicity. Therefore, the laminates exhibited good mechanical properties and good hydrophobicity.
