Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of polymer materials technology, and in particular to an 800V high leakage current tracking halogen-free flame-retardant reinforced plastic and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] In the electrical field, especially in high-voltage electrical equipment, the tracking properties of materials are crucial. When electrical equipment is in complex environments such as dampness or pollution, conductive paths may form on the surface of the insulating material, leading to leakage. This not only causes a decline in equipment performance and a shortened lifespan, but may also cause serious safety accidents such as fires and electric shocks.
[0003] Currently, some plastic materials on the market have low tracking index under humid conditions, making it difficult to meet the insulation reliability requirements of high-voltage electrical equipment. For example, in some outdoor electrical equipment, due to long-term exposure to humid environments, the insulation performance of ordinary plastic materials will gradually deteriorate, easily causing tracking, which in turn affects the stable operation of the entire electrical system and may even endanger personnel safety.
[0004] With the rapid development of industries such as electronics, electrical appliances, and rail transportation, increasingly higher requirements are being placed on the flame-retardant properties of materials. Traditional flame-retardant plastic materials mostly employ a single flame-retardant system, such as using only phosphorus-based flame retardants. While phosphorus-based flame retardants can inhibit combustion to some extent, they also have certain limitations.
[0005] When using only phosphorus-based flame retardants, the material may produce a significant amount of smoke and toxic gases during combustion. This not only pollutes the environment but also hinders evacuation and rescue efforts in the event of a fire. Furthermore, a single phosphorus-based flame retardant often fails to achieve a high flame retardancy rating, such as UL94V-0, which is unacceptable for applications with extremely stringent safety requirements.
[0006] Furthermore, nitrogen-based flame retardants possess a unique flame-retardant mechanism, promoting char formation and reducing the generation of combustible gases during combustion. However, using nitrogen-based flame retardants alone can result in less than ideal flame-retardant effects.
[0007] Therefore, we provide an 800V high leakage tracking halogen-free flame-retardant reinforced plastic and its preparation method. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the prior art by proposing an 800V high leakage current tracking halogen-free flame retardant reinforced plastic and its preparation method.
[0009] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0010] A halogen-free flame-retardant reinforced plastic with high leakage current tracking and a weight percentage, comprising:
[0011] The matrix resin accounts for 30%-50%, and is selected from polyphenylene ether or polycarbonate, which provides the material with basic mechanical properties and thermal stability.
[0012] Halogen-free flame retardants account for 15%-30% and are composed of phosphorus-based flame retardants such as phosphate esters and phosphazene compounds and nitrogen-based flame retardants such as melamine cyanurate. The weight ratio of phosphorus-based to nitrogen-based flame retardants is 1.5:1 to 3:1 to achieve a highly efficient halogen-free flame retardant effect.
[0013] Reinforcing fibers account for 20%-40%, with glass fiber or carbon fiber selected to significantly improve the tensile strength, flexural strength and impact strength of the material;
[0014] The tracking inhibitor accounts for 1%-5%, and uses nano-silica or layered silicate with an average particle size of less than 100 nanometers, which effectively suppresses tracking phenomena under high voltage.
[0015] Antioxidants account for 0.1%-1%, and are hindered phenolic antioxidants, which prevent the material from aging during processing and use;
[0016] Lubricant accounts for 0.5%-2%, and stearate or silicone lubricants are selected to improve the processing fluidity of the material;
[0017] Other additives account for 0%-5%, such as coupling agents, which are used to enhance the interfacial bonding between the reinforcing fibers and the matrix resin.
[0018] Preferably, the phosphorus-based flame retardant is a phosphate ester or a phosphazene compound, and the nitrogen-based flame retardant is melamine cyanurate, with a weight ratio of phosphorus-based to nitrogen-based flame retardant of 1.5:1 to 3:1.
[0019] Preferably, the tracking inhibitor is nano-silica or layered silicate with an average particle size of less than 100 nanometers and is uniformly dispersed in the matrix resin.
[0020] Preferably, the antioxidant is a hindered phenolic antioxidant, and the lubricant is a stearate or silicone lubricant.
[0021] Preferably, the other additives include coupling agents to improve the interfacial bonding between the reinforcing fibers and the matrix resin.
[0022] Preferably, a method for preparing 800V high tracking halogen-free flame-retardant reinforced plastic is also provided, comprising the following steps: raw material pretreatment, drying the matrix resin and surface treating the reinforcing fibers; mixing and batching, adding the pretreated components to a high-speed mixer in proportion and mixing evenly to form a premix; melt extrusion, adding the premix to a twin-screw extruder for melt extrusion granulation; injection molding, drying the granulated material again and then using an injection molding machine to injection mold it into a product of the desired shape; and post-treatment, heat treating the molded product to eliminate internal stress.
[0023] Preferably, in the raw material pretreatment step, the drying temperature of the matrix resin is 80℃-100℃, and the drying time is 4h-6h; the surface treatment of the reinforcing fiber is carried out by impregnation with a silane coupling agent.
[0024] Preferably, in the mixing and batching step, the speed of the high-speed mixer is 500 r / min-1000 r / min, and the mixing time is 5 min-15 min; the continued mixing time after adding the reinforcing fiber is 3 min-5 min.
[0025] Preferably, the extrusion temperature of the twin-screw extruder is 260℃-320℃, and the screw speed is 200r / min to 400r / min; in the injection molding step, the barrel temperature is 280℃-340℃, and the injection pressure is 60MPa-100MPa.
[0026] Preferably, in the post-processing step, the heat treatment temperature is 120℃-160℃ and the time is 2h-4h; the obtained 800V high tracking halogen-free flame-retardant reinforced plastic has a tracking index of not less than 800 volts and a flame retardant rating of UL94V-0.
[0027] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0028] 1. By adding tracking inhibitors such as nano-silica and layered silicates, the tracking index of the material under humid conditions is significantly improved, reaching a maximum of no less than 700V. This characteristic effectively enhances the insulation reliability of the material in complex electrical environments, reduces safety hazards caused by leakage, and is suitable for high-voltage electrical equipment fields with stringent electrical safety requirements.
[0029] 2. By using a specific ratio of phosphorus-based and nitrogen-based flame retardants, and leveraging their synergistic effect, the material achieves a UL94V-0 flame retardant rating. Compared to using phosphorus-based flame retardants alone, this compound system performs better in inhibiting combustion reactions and reducing smoke release, significantly improving the material's safety performance in fire scenarios and meeting the stringent requirements for flame-retardant materials in the electronics, electrical appliances, and rail transportation industries.
[0030] 3. By introducing reinforcing fibers such as glass fiber and carbon fiber, and optimizing the compounding ratio of polyphenylene ether and polycarbonate in the matrix resin, the tensile strength of the material is significantly enhanced, reaching up to 135 MPa. The uniform dispersion of the reinforcing fibers and the synergistic effect of the matrix resin enable the material to maintain good processing performance while possessing excellent impact resistance and structural stability, making it widely applicable in fields requiring high-strength and high-rigidity structural components.
