Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrothermal anti-icing processing technology for aircraft; and more particularly to an anti-curling device for electrothermal thin film laser engraving based on umbrella-shaped air cooling and its usage method. Background Technology
[0002] Laser engraving is a core technology for patterning electrothermal films on polyimide (PI) substrates. Leveraging its advantages of non-contact operation, high precision, and high efficiency, it is widely used in the fabrication of anti-icing / de-icing devices for surfaces in extreme environments of aerospace vehicles. PI-based electrothermal films are composed of a flexible PI substrate and electrothermal layers such as carbon nanotubes and graphite. However, during laser engraving, the localized instantaneous high temperature (300–500°C) of the laser beam causes significant thermal stress between the PI substrate and the carbon nanotube electrothermal layer due to the difference in their coefficients of thermal expansion. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the polyimide substrate is 20–30 ppm / °C, while that of the carbon nanotube electrothermal layer is only 0.5–1 ppm / °C. This significant difference in coefficients leads to uneven shrinkage upon cooling, easily causing deformation problems such as film curling and edge warping.
[0003] In existing technologies, cooling methods for laser processing are mostly static air cooling or overall water cooling. The cooling rate is uneven, which easily generates temperature gradient stress. It is difficult to quickly and accurately remove the instantaneous heat of the laser engraving area and suppress the generation of thermal stress from the source. Some solutions use complex composite constraint structures to assist in anti-curling, but rigid constraints are prone to damaging the ultra-thin polyimide substrate (<25μm), while flexible constraints are complex in structure, expensive, and lack linkage control between cooling and constraint, resulting in limited anti-curling effect.
[0004] Furthermore, the cooling parameters and laser processing parameters of traditional laser engraving devices are mostly fixed and cannot be dynamically adjusted according to the real-time temperature of the engraving area. This easily leads to heat accumulation or overcooling, which not only exacerbates film deformation but also causes carbonization and increased burrs at the edges of the engraved pattern, reduces the uniformity of the electrothermal layer resistance, and affects the processing quality and performance of the electrothermal film. Therefore, developing an anti-curling laser engraving device and its application method that uses umbrella-shaped air cooling as the core and combines it with highly thermally conductive flexible adsorption fixation to achieve real-time linkage between cooling and processing parameters has become a key technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in the field of patterned electrothermal film processing.
