Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrical insulation materials technology, and in particular to a glass insulator bonding process using an aging-resistant reinforced adhesive. Background Technology

[0002] Suspension insulators for high-voltage overhead transmission lines are crucial components in power systems, used to support and insulate high-voltage conductors. Their primary function is to isolate conductors at different potentials from the ground, ensuring the safe flow of current along a predetermined path, while also bearing loads such as mechanical tension, wind, and snow loads. Suspension insulators are mainly classified into three categories based on their material: ceramic insulators, glass insulators, and composite insulators. Ceramic and glass insulators have a long history and mature technology, and have been widely used in power grids of all voltage levels across the country for a long time. However, they each also have significant limitations in terms of mechanical and environmental resistance.

[0003] Traditional ceramic insulators have good dielectric strength, heat resistance and long service experience, but ceramic materials are inherently brittle and are prone to cracking and breaking when subjected to mechanical or thermal shock. Especially in high-voltage and high-tonnage environments, their flexural strength and impact resistance are insufficient, posing certain operational safety hazards.

[0004] Glass insulators have high resistance to flashover voltage and the fragments are not fatally damaged when they "explode," which reduces the risk of flashover caused by deterioration to a certain extent. However, glass itself is also a brittle material, and its ability to withstand impact and bending loads is relatively limited. Moreover, it is susceptible to the accumulation of microcracks due to environmental factors during long-term service.

[0005] To address the limitations of single ceramic or glass insulators in terms of mechanical and durability under high voltage and high load conditions, domestic and international technological developments have gradually moved towards composite insulators, optimizing overall performance by combining different material systems. For example, CN100481276C discloses a suspension composite insulator. This technology points out that existing ceramic and glass insulators are prone to brittleness, contamination, and high-voltage flashover and cylinder shattering accidents, and proposes a composite structure to improve flexural strength.

[0006] The earlier patent WO2003107360A1 also pointed out the problems of traditional ceramic insulators being fragile, heavy, and easily damaged during transportation and installation, emphasizing the development of composite structure insulators to improve their mechanical strength and installation reliability.

[0007] In addition, in the disc-shaped suspension porcelain or glass composite insulator shown in Chinese patent CN102522162A, in order to improve the creepage distance and anti-pollution flashover performance of the existing structure, a combined inorganic material barrier structure is adopted, but it still mainly focuses on the local structural optimization of traditional materials.

[0008] Although existing ceramic, glass, and composite insulators have been widely used in power system operation, there is still room for improvement in terms of high mechanical strength, thermal shock resistance, density, and long-term stability. Especially in ultra-high voltage and extra-high voltage power grid environments, higher demands are placed on suspension insulator materials and manufacturing processes; existing technologies struggle to significantly improve mechanical strength and crack resistance while ensuring high electrical insulation performance. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Based on the problems raised in the background art, the present invention proposes a glass insulator bonding process using an aging-resistant and reinforced adhesive.

[0010] The technical solution is as follows: A glass insulator bonding process using an aging-resistant reinforced adhesive includes the following steps: (1) Prepare raw material powder by mixing alumina powder, borosilicate glass powder, yttrium oxide stabilized zirconium oxide powder, and silica powder in the following mass ratios: 100 parts, 10-40 parts, 5-20 parts, and 5-20 parts, respectively. (2) Add 0.1-2.0 parts of organic dispersant and 3.0-10.0 parts of binder to the mixed powder, and ball mill it for 8-16 hours with 145-180 parts of isopropanol as solvent so that the particle D50 of the mixed powder is in the range of 1-5μm; (3) After drying and pulverizing the ball-milled slurry, add 1.0-5.0 parts of plasticizer to make a plastic molding material; (4) Isostatic pressing or injection molding is used to form the molding material into a suspension insulator blank, and a pressure of 80-200MPa is applied. (5) The blank is pre-sintered at a temperature of 450-800℃ for 1-4 hours to remove organic matter and improve initial strength. (6) The pre-sintered body is placed in a vacuum or argon protective atmosphere for hot pressing sintering. The heating rate is 5-20℃ / min, the sintering temperature is 1250-1500℃, and the holding time is 0.5-3h. At the same time, a hot pressing pressure of 10-40MPa is applied to fully combine the ceramic matrix with the glass phase to form a dense composite structure. (7) The sintered body is machined, deburred, polished and cleaned to obtain the final suspension insulator.

[0011] Preferably, the alumina powder is α-Al2O3 with an average particle size D50 of 0.5-3 μm.

[0012] Preferably, the borosilicate glass powder is composed of 60-75 wt% SiO2, 10-20 wt% B2O3, and 5-15 wt% Na2O, with an average particle size D50 of 1-5 μm.

[0013] Preferably, the yttrium-stabilized zirconia powder is 3-8 mol% Y₂O₃-stabilized zirconia.

[0014] Preferably, the D50 of the silica powder is 0.5-3 μm.

[0015] Preferably, the organic dispersant is polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylate, or a mixture thereof.

[0016] Preferably, the adhesive is prepared by the following method: Mix 100-120 parts of bisphenol F type epoxy resin, 3-6 parts of 4-amino-3-mercaptopyridine (CAS: 52334-54-0), 5-9 parts of 4-fluoro-1-aminonaphthalene, and 2-5 parts of γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, add 0.4-0.7 parts of triethylamine, and react at 75-95℃ for 80-140 minutes. After the reaction, adjust the pH to 7-8 with sodium bicarbonate solution, add 0.8-2.5 parts of nano-silica with a particle size of 15-30 nm, and ultrasonically disperse for 40-120 minutes to obtain the binder.

[0017] Preferably, the bisphenol F type epoxy resin is DER354LV with a viscosity of 2500-3500.

[0018] Preferably, the plasticizer is di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, polyethylene glycol, or glycerin.

[0019] Preferably, the molding temperature during injection molding is 50-80℃, and the mold holding time is 30-120s.

[0020] Preferably, the pre-sintering adopts a heating rate of 2-10℃ / min, and the pre-sintering atmosphere is air or an oxygen-enriched atmosphere.

[0021] Adhesive reaction mechanism: The epoxy groups of bisphenol F epoxy resin can undergo ring-opening addition reactions with the amino and mercapto groups in 4-amino-3-mercaptopyridine, respectively, and simultaneously form an amine-cured crosslinking structure with the amino group in 4-fluoro-1-aminonaphthalene, thus constructing a multi-component crosslinking framework. γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane participates in the crosslinking reaction through its epoxy groups, and its siloxane segments optimize the interfacial compatibility between the inorganic powder and the organic phase. Triethylamine acts as a catalyst to accelerate the reaction process. The subsequently added nano-silica is uniformly embedded into the crosslinking network through ultrasonic dispersion, further filling the structural voids, and finally forming a dense, stable, and highly insulating adhesive system with strong interfacial bonding.

[0022] Adhesive effect: The synergistic effect of multi-component cross-linking reaction and nanoparticle filling significantly improves the mechanical strength and structural density of the binder, effectively enhancing the crack resistance and load-bearing capacity of the insulator.

[0023] The specific reaction of amino, mercapto, and epoxy groups, combined with the introduction of fluorinated monomers, endows the binder with excellent electrical insulation and aging resistance properties, meeting the long-term service requirements under high-voltage conditions.

[0024] The precise reaction between thiol-containing and fluorine-containing functional monomers and epoxy groups optimizes the interfacial bonding efficiency of the binder, reduces interfacial defects, and significantly improves the thermal shock resistance stability of the insulator.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: 1. The dense ceramic-glass composite structure improves the overall flexural strength and crack resistance of the material; 2. Glass can penetrate the ceramic interface during high-temperature hot pressing, improving interfacial bonding and enhancing mechanical properties; 3. The electrical insulation performance of composite insulators is not significantly affected, and they have excellent resistance to thermal shock. 4. The preparation method has strong process controllability and is suitable for large-scale production. Detailed Implementation
