Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of magnetic materials technology, specifically to a highly stable, low-loss iron core and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] In modern life, iron cores are widely used in electrical devices and power transformers, occupying an important position. Meanwhile, with the continuous development of electronic information technology, miniaturization of electronic devices has become a market trend. The widespread adoption of microelectronic devices has placed demands on iron core materials for smaller size, higher efficiency, and greater stability. However, in high-frequency applications, frequency and eddy current losses increase. Under alternating transverse magnetic fields, the iron core experiences magnetostriction, high stress sensitivity, and structural fatigue, reducing its stability and thus affecting the service life of the equipment.
[0003] Therefore, developing a highly stable and low-loss iron core is of great significance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a highly stable, low-loss iron core and its preparation method, so as to solve the problems raised in the prior art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A method for preparing a highly stable, low-loss iron core includes the following steps: S1: Add iron powder, cobalt powder, silicon powder, boron powder, iron-phosphorus alloy and copper powder to a container, and melt by electric arc. After melting, perform spray casting and transverse magnetic annealing in sequence to obtain heat-treated iron-based amorphous alloy strip. S2: A heat-treated iron-based amorphous alloy is uniformly coated with an insulating adhesive, wound and cut, and dried and cured to obtain an iron core.
[0006] Further, in step S1, the transverse magnetic annealing conditions are 490-580℃, holding for 120-360min, gradient cooling at 2-4℃ / min, and magnetization at 300-320℃, 400-430℃, 450-480℃ and 500-520℃ for 10-30min, with a magnetic field strength of 6000-8000A / m and the magnetic field direction parallel to the width of the iron-based amorphous alloy strip.
[0007] Further, in step S2, the preparation method of the insulating adhesive is as follows: add waterborne epoxy resin and wetting and dispersing agent to deionized water, stir and mix well, then add modified boron nitride, stir and mix well, add deionized water, stir, and obtain the insulating adhesive; In the preparation of the insulating adhesive, the mass ratio of waterborne epoxy resin, wetting and dispersing agent and modified boron nitride is (60-80):(1-3):(5-10).
[0008] Furthermore, the preparation method of the waterborne epoxy resin is as follows: the epoxy resin emulsion and the epoxy curing agent are stirred and mixed evenly, and then vacuum dried to obtain the waterborne epoxy resin. In the preparation of waterborne epoxy resin, the mass ratio of epoxy resin emulsion to epoxy curing agent is 1:(0.8-1); The wetting and dispersing agent is one or more of BYK-190, BYK-348, and BYK-340.
[0009] Furthermore, the preparation method of the epoxy resin emulsion is as follows: the emulsifier and epoxy resin are mixed, heated and stirred until homogeneous, deionized water is added, and stirred until homogeneous to obtain the epoxy resin emulsion; In the preparation of epoxy resin emulsion, the mass ratio of emulsifier to epoxy resin is (15-30):100.
[0010] Further, the preparation method of the emulsifier is as follows: after preheating the epoxy resin, place it in a container, add polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether, heat and stir to mix, add potassium persulfate, react at 140-180℃ for 2-4 hours, cool to room temperature, and obtain the emulsifier; In the preparation of the emulsifier, the mass ratio of epoxy resin, polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether and potassium persulfate is 1:(2-4):(0.01-0.03).
[0011] Further, the preparation method of the epoxy curing agent is as follows: epoxy resin is mixed with tetraethylenepentamine, heated at 80-100℃ for 2-4 hours, distilled under reduced pressure, n-butyl glycidyl ether is added for end-capping, and then glacial acetic acid is added for neutralization reaction to obtain epoxy curing agent; In the preparation of epoxy curing agent, the mass ratio of epoxy resin, tetraethylenepentamine, and n-butyl glycidyl ether is 1:(0.8-1):(0.05-0.15).
[0012] Further, the preparation process of the modified boron nitride is as follows: add nano boron nitride to an aqueous ethanol solution, heat and stir to mix, add γ-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)propyltrimethoxysilane, stir and react at 55-65℃ for 1-3h to obtain modified nano boron nitride. In the preparation of modified boron nitride, the mass ratio of nano boron nitride to γ-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)propyltrimethoxysilane is 1:(0.08-0.12).
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. This invention uses an iron-based amorphous alloy as the base material and employs electric arc melting to repeatedly melt metal powder, thereby improving the uniformity of the chemical composition of the master alloy ingot and reducing segregation, thus enhancing the mechanical properties and stability of the core. Simultaneously, transverse magnetic annealing is used to heat-treat the iron-based amorphous alloy strip. On one hand, gradient cooling fully releases the internal stress of the base material, resulting in uniform magnetic domain distribution and reducing hysteresis loss; on the other hand, magnetization during gradient cooling alters the soft magnetic properties of the base material, improving its anti-biasing ability and thus enhancing the stability of the core.
[0014] 2. This invention introduces waterborne epoxy resin into an insulating adhesive. First, epoxy resin is polymerized with polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether, introducing hydrophilic segments. This not only improves the stability of the insulating adhesive but also reduces the use of low-volatile organic solvents, aligning with environmental protection principles. Second, an epoxy resin curing agent is synthesized using tetraethylenepentamine and epoxy resin as raw materials, and then end-capped with n-butyl glycidyl ether to improve its compatibility with the epoxy resin emulsion, thereby enhancing the adhesion of the insulating adhesive and ultimately improving the stability of the iron core.
[0015] 3. This invention introduces modified boron nitride into the insulating adhesive. Boron nitride is modified with γ-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)propyltrimethoxysilane to improve its compatibility with water-based epoxy resins and promote the uniform dispersion of nano-boron nitride in the adhesive. Simultaneously, the excellent insulating and thermal conductivity of boron nitride effectively improves the insulation and heat resistance of the insulating adhesive, thereby enhancing the stability of the iron core and reducing core losses.

[0028] Testing: Take the iron core samples prepared in the above examples and comparative examples, and use this parameter and electrical parameter measuring instrument to test the iron core performance.
[0029] The experimental results are shown in Table 1 below.
[0030] Table 1 Core Performance Test Data
[0031] Conclusion: By optimizing the core manufacturing process and the insulating binder formulation, the core exhibits good stability and low loss.
[0032] In Comparative Example 1, ordinary annealing was used to heat-treat the iron-based amorphous alloy strip, which increased the magnetic loss of the iron core and reduced its stability.
[0033] In Comparative Example 2, water-based epoxy resin was not used as the matrix for the insulating adhesive, which reduced the stability of the insulating adhesive and thus affected the stability of the iron core.
[0034] In Comparative Example 3, boron nitride was not modified, which reduced its compatibility with water-based epoxy resin, making it prone to agglomeration. This affected the insulation and heat resistance of the insulating adhesive, thereby affecting the stability of the iron core and operating losses.
