Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of wave-transparent materials technology, specifically to a fiber-reinforced, high-transparency, weather-resistant, and impact-resistant material for a radome. Background Technology
[0002] The development of high-transmittance radome materials has evolved from glass fiber reinforced resin to high-performance polymer composite materials. Early glass fiber radomes suffered from high dielectric constant and moderate weather resistance, resulting in significant losses in high-frequency applications. With the development of radar, 5G communication, and aerospace technologies, the demand for low-dielectric, low-loss, high-weather-resistant, and impact-resistant materials has been increasing. In recent years, low-dielectric matrix materials such as PTFE, PEEK, and silicone resins have been gradually applied, combined with reinforcing phases such as SiO2 fibers and aramid fibers to improve transmittance and weather resistance. Furthermore, optimization through technologies such as nano-SiO2, BN modification, UV stabilizers, and fluorocarbon coatings has further enhanced the long-term stability and environmental adaptability of the materials, enabling their widespread application in high-end fields such as aerospace, 5G millimeter-wave radar, and stealth radomes.
[0003] The prior art CN104059601B discloses a method for synthesizing a phosphate-based microwave-transparent material. An inorganic adhesive is used as a base material, and an organic microwave-transparent material is used as a template agent. After being mixed evenly, the mixture is added to a mold, left to stand for 24 hours, and cured at 60-80℃. During the curing process, the mixture is flattened every 1 hour. After curing, the mixture is calcined at 600-800℃ to obtain the phosphate-based microwave-transparent material. The prepared phosphate-based microwave-transparent material has excellent high-temperature resistance and microwave transmission properties.
[0004] However, the aforementioned patent only describes the process of obtaining a phosphate-based microwave-transparent material by using an organic microwave-transparent material as a template agent and then curing it. However, the prepared phosphate-based microwave-transparent material has a simple structure, resulting in poor impact toughness and susceptibility to changes in humidity and temperature, leading to hydrolysis or swelling and deterioration of microwave transmission performance. Therefore, the impact resistance and microwave transmission performance of the material need to be further improved.
[0005] To address this technical deficiency, a solution is proposed. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fiber-reinforced, high-transparency, weather-resistant and impact-resistant material for radomes, which addresses the technical problem that the wave transmission performance and impact resistance of existing wave-transparent materials need further improvement.

[0012] A2. Allyl glycidyl ether and N,N-dimethylformamide were added to the reaction vessel and stirred. After the temperature of the reaction vessel was raised to 40-60℃, activated polytetrafluoroethylene and triethylamine were added to the reaction vessel. After stirring for 30-40 minutes, the grafted polytetrafluoroethylene was obtained through post-treatment.
[0013] A3. Add the modified curing agent and N,N-dimethylformamide to the reactor and stir. After the reactor temperature is raised to 60-80℃, add grafted polytetrafluoroethylene and azobisisobutyronitrile to the reactor. After stirring for 1-2 hours, the modified polytetrafluoroethylene is obtained through post-treatment.
[0014] The reaction principle for preparing modified polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is as follows: After plasma activation, a large number of active hydrophilic functional groups such as hydroxyl, aldehyde, and carboxyl groups are generated on the surface of PTFE powder. Under alkaline conditions, allyl glycidyl ether ring-opening generates free radicals that react with the activated functional groups on the activated PTFE to obtain grafted PTFE with a double bond structure. Finally, under the catalysis of free radical initiator and high temperature, the double bond structure on the grafted PTFE undergoes a free radical polymerization reaction with the double bonds of the side chain of the modified curing agent, and finally, modified PTFE is prepared.
[0015] Furthermore, in step A1, the atmosphere of the radio frequency plasma reactor is argon, the radio frequency power is 13.64MHz, the fixed venting pressure is 50-70Pa, and the discharge power is 40-60W.

[0018] Furthermore, the preparation method of composite fibers includes the following steps:
[0019] B1. Add aluminum chloride, tetraethyl silicate and deionized water to a hydrothermal reactor. Stir at room temperature for 10-15 min, then add aluminum triisopropoxy and polyvinyl alcohol. Raise the temperature of the hydrothermal reactor to 160-180℃ and keep it at that temperature for 8-12 h to obtain a composite gel.
[0020] B2. The composite gel is added to an electrospinning machine, and modified fibers are obtained by electrospinning. The modified fibers are then post-treated to obtain porous fibers.
[0021] B3. The modified fibers are impregnated and modified in phosphate slurry for 3-5 times to obtain composite fiber precursors;
[0022] B4. Add the composite fiber precursor and N,N-dimethylformamide to the reactor and stir. After the reactor temperature is raised to 40-60℃, continue to add the modified curing agent to the reactor and adjust the pH of the reaction system to 8-10 using saturated sodium hydroxide solution. After stirring for 30-40 minutes, the composite fiber is obtained through post-treatment.
[0023] The reaction principle for preparing composite fibers is as follows: under hydrothermal conditions, metal-organic salts and metal-inorganic salts are hydrolyzed to produce a gel-like structure. After high-temperature calcination and steam activation, porous fibers with high surface activity are obtained. After being modified by soaking in phosphate slurry, the surface of the composite fiber precursor is finally modified by hydrolyzing the silane coupling agent on the modified curing agent branch under alkaline conditions to obtain composite fibers.
[0024] Furthermore, in step B1, the ratio of aluminum chloride, tetraethyl silicate, deionized water, aluminum triisopropoxy, and polyvinyl alcohol is 12-15g:8-10g:40-50mL:9-12g:1-2g.
[0025] Furthermore, in step B2, the electrospinning process requirements are as follows: temperature 20-25℃, humidity 25-35%, applied voltage 18-21kV, receiving distance 18-20cm, infusion rate 4-6mL / h, slide table moving speed 24-30cm / min, and receiving roller rotation speed 24-30r / min; the post-treatment operation is as follows: the modified fiber is transferred to a tube furnace, nitrogen gas is introduced into the tube furnace for protection, and the tube furnace is heated to 5-6℃. The temperature is increased to 600-650℃ at a heating rate of 1-2L / min. Nitrogen gas is then introduced at a flow rate of 1-2L / min. After holding at this temperature for 1-2 hours, the oxygen gas is turned off, and nitrogen gas is introduced again. The temperature is then increased to 1250-1350℃ at a heating rate of 5-6℃ / min. After holding at this temperature for 1-2 hours, the temperature is allowed to cool naturally to 120-150℃. Nitrogen gas is then turned off, and water vapor is introduced at a flow rate of 1-2L / min. After holding at this temperature for 1-2 hours, porous fibers are obtained.
[0026] Furthermore, in step B3, the padding modification operation is as follows: after a two-dip and two-roll process, the material is transferred to an oven at 150-180℃, cured to constant weight in a nitrogen atmosphere, and then naturally cooled to room temperature to obtain a composite fiber precursor, wherein the liquor ratio is 1:20-24 and the padding rate is 100-110%;
[0027] Furthermore, in step B4, the ratio of composite fiber precursor, N,N-dimethylformamide and modified curing agent is 6-8g:24-30mL:2-3g. The post-treatment includes: after the reaction is completed, wait for the temperature of the reaction vessel to drop to room temperature, filter the reaction liquid to collect the filter cake, transfer the filter cake to a drying oven at a temperature of 60-80℃ and vacuum dry it to constant weight to obtain composite fiber.
[0028] Furthermore, the method for preparing phosphate slurry includes the following steps: adding phosphoric acid solution and aluminum hydroxide into a reaction vessel, raising the temperature of the reaction vessel to 60-80℃, stirring and maintaining the temperature until the solution becomes clear, adding chromium oxide and hydrogen peroxide into the reaction vessel, stirring and maintaining the temperature for 2-3 hours to obtain phosphate slurry.
[0029] The preparation principle of phosphate slurry is as follows: phosphoric acid and alumina react to prepare phosphate structure, and under acidic conditions, hydrogen peroxide converts hexavalent chromium into trivalent chromium ions, which are then complexed with phosphate to finally prepare phosphate slurry.
[0030] Furthermore, the concentration of the phosphoric acid solution is 40-60 wt%, and the ratio of phosphoric acid solution, aluminum hydroxide, chromium oxide and hydrogen peroxide is 40-60 mL: 2.4-3.0 g: 1.4-1.6 g: 0.4-0.6 g.
[0031] Furthermore, the preparation method of the modified curing agent includes the following steps:
[0032] C1. Add glycidyltrimethoxysilane, 1,3-diamino-2-hydroxypropane, triethylamine and N,N-dimethylformamide to a reaction vessel, raise the temperature of the reaction vessel to 40-60℃, and keep the reaction at this temperature for 30-40 min to obtain modified siloxane.
[0033] C2. Add the modified siloxane and tetrahydrofuran to the reflux apparatus. After purging with nitrogen for protection, lower the temperature of the reflux apparatus to 0-3℃. Continue to add formaldehyde solution to the reactor. After stirring at the temperature for 30-40 minutes, add 6-methyljuncusiol solution dropwise to the reactor. After the addition is complete, raise the temperature of the reflux apparatus back to reflux and keep the reaction at the temperature for 18-20 hours. The modified curing agent is then obtained through post-treatment.
[0034] The reaction equation for preparing the modified curing agent is as follows:
[0035]
[0036] In the formula: .
[0037] The reaction principle for preparing the modified curing agent is as follows: Under alkaline conditions, the epoxy group on glycidyltrimethoxysilane undergoes ring opening to generate free radicals, which react with the hydroxyl groups on 1,3-diamino-2-hydroxypropane to prepare the modified siloxane. The mass spectrometry analysis data of the modified siloxane are: m / z: 181.4 (100.0%), 181.9 (10.8%), 182.8 (4.8%). Under nitrogen protection, the diamino group, formaldehyde, and hydroxyl groups on 6-methyljuncosyl hydroxyl groups on the modified siloxane undergo cyclization reactions to form a polyoxazine-structured modified curing agent.
[0038] Further, in step C1, the ratio of glycidyltrimethoxysilane, 1,3-diamino-2-hydroxypropane, triethylamine, and N,N-dimethylformamide is 4-6 g: 2-3 g: 0.2-0.5 g: 25-30 mL. The post-treatment includes: after the reaction is completed, the reaction vessel is cooled to room temperature, the reaction solution is added to a rotary evaporator with a water bath temperature of 80-100℃, and the solution is distilled under reduced pressure until no liquid is collected, thus obtaining the modified siloxane.
[0039] Further, in step C2, the ratio of modified siloxane, tetrahydrofuran, formaldehyde solution, and 6-methyljuncuspidol solution is 8.1-9.9g:30-32mL:20-24mL:40-50mL. The formaldehyde solution is obtained by mixing formaldehyde gas and tetrahydrofuran at a ratio of 3.6-4.4g:20-24mL, and the 6-methyljuncuspidol solution is obtained by mixing 6-methyljuncuspidol and tetrahydrofuran at a ratio of 9.9-12.1g:40-50mL. The post-treatment includes: after the reaction is complete, the reaction vessel is cooled to room temperature, and the reaction solution is added to a rotary evaporator with a water bath temperature of 80-100℃. The mixture is then distilled under reduced pressure until no liquid is collected, yielding the modified curing agent.
[0040] Furthermore, a method for preparing a fiber-reinforced high-transparency, weather-resistant, and impact-resistant radome material is as follows: modified polytetrafluoroethylene, composite fiber, modified curing agent, UV stabilizer, toughening agent, antioxidant, filler, and flame retardant are added to a melting bath at a temperature of 250-280℃ and stirred for 20-30 minutes. The melt is then transferred to a vacuum sintering furnace and sintered to obtain the radome material.
[0041] The reaction mechanism of high-temperature curing is as follows:
[0042]
[0043] The reaction principle of high-temperature curing is as follows: In the oxazine epoxy carbon-nitrogen ring structure, due to the electronic effect of the heteroatoms of oxygen and nitrogen atoms, the electron cloud density of the carbon atom in the middle is reduced, thus giving it a partial positive charge. During the ring-opening curing process, the carbon-oxygen bond first breaks into oxygen anions and carbocations. The carbocation intermediate randomly attacks the carbon atoms adjacent to the oxygen on the benzene ring, thereby initiating polymerization. Through the polymerization reaction of the modified curing agent, composite fiber and modified polytetrafluoroethylene oxazine ring, the materials are tightly bonded together, and finally the radome material is prepared.
[0044] Further, the sintering operation is as follows: under a nitrogen atmosphere, the temperature of the sintering furnace is raised to 350-400℃ at a heating rate of 8-10℃ / min, and sintered at a constant temperature for 2-4 hours. Then, the temperature is lowered to 120-150℃ at a cooling rate of 4-5℃ / min, and allowed to cool naturally to room temperature to obtain the radome material.
[0045] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0046] 1. This invention involves preparing a long-chain modified curing agent, modifying the surface of grafted polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and composite fiber precursors through its side chain structure, and obtaining modified PTFE and composite fibers. During the sintering process with auxiliary materials, the oxazine rings in the modified curing agent components undergo ring-opening polymerization, improving the curing efficiency of the material, thereby obtaining an antenna radome material. The siloxane structure inside the material enhances the weather resistance of the material, while working synergistically with the phosphate structure. During combustion, the generated silica protective layer and carbonization effect work together to significantly enhance the flame retardant effect of the material. Furthermore, the inherent low-loss characteristics of PTFE and the synergistic effect of the composite fibers significantly improve the wave transmission performance of the material.
[0047] 2. This invention also prepares a modified curing agent with siloxane and double bond structures in the side chains. This agent modifies the modified fibers through siloxane hydrolysis, thereby enhancing the stability and compatibility of the modified fibers with organic materials. Furthermore, it modifies the activated grafted polyvinylidene fluoride segments using free radical polymerization. The siloxane structure on the surface synergistically enhances the material's weather resistance with the silica component in the modified fibers. Simultaneously, the two, along with the alumina and phosphate inside the modified fibers, further enhance the flame retardant properties of the material through a synergistic flame retardant effect. Moreover, during high-temperature processing, the oxazine ring in the modified curing agent undergoes ring-opening polymerization, tightly binding the modified polytetrafluoroethylene and the composite fibers, thus significantly enhancing the material's impact resistance.
[0048] 3. In the process of preparing modified polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) fibers, this invention first obtains a porous fiber through hydrolysis, electrospinning, and high-temperature calcination. Besides enhancing the fiber's wave transmission performance through phosphate modification, the flame retardant performance is further enhanced through the component composite flame retardant effect. After modification with a curing agent and coating with highly hydrophobic modified PTFE, the fiber is isolated from water, significantly improving the stability of the phosphate structure. Furthermore, the inherent low-loss characteristics of PTFE, when filled with silica fiber, form a gradient dielectric structure, thereby reducing electromagnetic wave reflection at different medium interfaces and increasing wave transmittance. The phosphate provides a uniformly distributed low-loss phase within the material, improving wave transmission uniformity and enhancing material stability. Through the synergistic effect of these three factors, the wave transmission performance of the material is enhanced. Detailed Implementation

[0164] This invention describes a modified curing agent with siloxane and double bond structures in its side chains. This agent modifies the modified fibers through siloxane hydrolysis, thereby enhancing the stability and compatibility with organic materials. Furthermore, it utilizes free radical polymerization to modify the activated grafted polyvinylidene fluoride segments. The siloxane structure on the surface synergistically enhances the material's weather resistance with the silica component in the modified fibers. Simultaneously, the synergistic flame-retardant effect of both the siloxane and silica components, along with the alumina and phosphate within the modified fibers, further enhances the material's flame-retardant properties. During high-temperature processing, the oxazine ring in the modified curing agent undergoes ring-opening polymerization, tightly binding the modified polytetrafluoroethylene and the composite fibers, thus significantly enhancing the material's impact resistance.
[0165] This invention describes the process of preparing modified polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) fibers. First, a porous fiber is obtained through hydrolysis, electrospinning, and high-temperature calcination. In addition to phosphate modification enhancing the fiber's wave transmission performance, the flame retardant properties are enhanced through a composite flame retardant effect. After modification with a curing agent and coating with highly hydrophobic PTFE, the modified fiber isolates moisture, significantly improving the stability of the phosphate structure. Furthermore, the inherent low-loss characteristics of PTFE, when filled with silica fiber, form a gradient dielectric structure, reducing electromagnetic wave reflection at different media interfaces and increasing wave transmittance. The phosphate layer forms a uniformly distributed low-loss phase within the material, improving wave transmission uniformity and enhancing material stability. Through the synergistic effect of these three factors, the wave transmission performance of the material is enhanced.
[0166] This invention describes a modified curing agent with a long-chain structure. After surface modification of the grafted polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and composite fiber precursors through its side-chain structure, modified PTFE and composite fibers are obtained. During the sintering process with auxiliary materials, the oxazine rings in the modified curing agent undergo ring-opening polymerization, improving the material's curing efficiency, thus yielding an antenna radome material. The siloxane structure within the material enhances its weather resistance, while its synergistic effect with the phosphate structure, along with the silica protective layer and carbonization-promoting effect generated during combustion, significantly enhances the material's flame-retardant effect. Furthermore, the inherent low-loss characteristics of PTFE and the synergistic effect of the composite fibers significantly improve the material's wave transmission performance.
