[0002] Underwater sound-absorbing materials refer to functional materials that can effectively absorb the energy of sound waves in water and reduce sound reflection. Their core function is to convert incident sound waves into heat energy or other forms of energy through the energy dissipation mechanism of the material's internal structure or components, thereby reducing the sound reflection cross section of the target object. These materials are widely used in the following fields: (1) Marine engineering: used for acoustic stealth design of underwater vehicles such as submarines and ships to reduce the probability of being detected by sonar; noise reduction treatment of underwater pipelines, marine platforms and other structures to reduce marine noise pollution; (2) Acoustic measurement: used as lining material for anechoic pools and anechoic chambers to provide a low-reflection acoustic environment for underwater acoustic equipment testing; (3) Civil field: underwater sound barriers, port noise prevention facilities, etc., used to control the impact of noise generated by underwater construction and ship navigation on marine life.

For the uniformly distributed structure, the characteristic is that nanometer to centimeter-sized wide-pore fillers are uniformly composited within the material, ensuring that the material generates uniform and controllable elastic compression when subjected to uniform hydrostatic pressure, achieving stable and reliable broadband dissipation under deep-sea high pressure. For the gradient distributed structure, by arranging multi-level pores in order of increasing pore size, a transition layer with continuously varying acoustic impedance can be constructed from the sound wave incident surface to the backing direction, thereby achieving broadband matching and frequency-division dissipation of underwater acoustic waves.

[0046] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the pressure-resistant sound-absorbing synthetic material described in the above technical solution, comprising the following steps:

[0047] An epoxy resin, diluent, curing agent, coupling agent, mesoporous silica microspheres, hollow glass microspheres, millimeter-sized polymer hollow spheres, and centimeter-sized polymer hollow spheres are filled into a mold and then heated to cure, resulting in a pressure-resistant and sound-absorbing synthetic material.

[0048] In the preparation method provided by this invention, for a material with uniformly distributed lightweight pressure-resistant filler, the specific filling process preferably includes:

[0049] Millimeter-sized and centimeter-sized hollow polymer spheres are uniformly mixed and placed in a mold, then preheated at 50-60°C for 8-24 hours. Epoxy resin, diluent, coupling agent, and curing agent are added to a mixing tank and stirred at 30-50°C under vacuum for 10-20 minutes. Mesoporous silica microspheres and hollow glass microspheres are added to the mixing tank and stirred at 30-50°C under vacuum for 20-40 minutes to obtain a mixed slurry. The mixed slurry is then transferred into the preheated mold using vacuum-assisted casting technology. This completes the filling of all materials. Figure 1 As shown.

[0050] In the preparation method provided by this invention, for lightweight pressure-resistant fillers distributed according to a particle size gradient, the specific filling process preferably includes:

[0051] A release cloth and a flow guide net are laid inside the mold. Mesoporous silica microspheres, hollow glass microspheres, millimeter-sized hollow polymer spheres, and centimeter-sized hollow polymer spheres are placed inside the mold in descending order of particle size. The mold is then preheated at 50-60°C for 8-24 hours. Epoxy resin, diluent, coupling agent, and curing agent are added to a mixing tank and stirred for 10-20 minutes at 30-50°C under vacuum to obtain an epoxy resin slurry. The epoxy resin slurry is then injected into the preheated mold using vacuum-assisted casting molding technology. This completes the filling of all materials. Figure 2 As shown.

[0052] In the preparation method provided by the present invention, the heating and curing temperature is preferably 110~150℃, specifically 110℃, 115℃, 120℃, 125℃, 130℃, 135℃, 140℃, 145℃ or 150℃; the heating and curing time is preferably 4~12h, specifically 4h, 5h, 6h, 7h, 8h, 9h, 10h, 11h or 12h.

[0053] The technical solution provided by this invention can obtain a sound-absorbing composite material that possesses both good compressive strength and sound absorption capacity. More specifically, the technical solution of this invention has at least the following advantages:

[0054] (1) By selecting high-strength epoxy resin as the matrix and using micron-sized hollow filler balls to reinforce the polyurethane sound-absorbing material, the material is guaranteed to have both good hydrostatic pressure resistance and good sound absorption performance. The average sound absorption coefficient of the material under 6MPa hydrostatic pressure can reach more than 0.65.

[0055] (2) By constructing a uniformly distributed pore / gradient pore structure from nanopores to centimeter cavities in the material system, a cavity resonance sound absorption mechanism is introduced while polyurethane viscoelastic sound absorption is achieved, thus broadening the sound absorption frequency range of the material.

[0056] (3) By adjusting the filling ratio of lightweight pressure-resistant filler, the density of the sound-absorbing material provided by the present invention can be controlled, thereby obtaining a lighter sound-absorbing material.

[0057] For clarity, the following examples and comparative models will be used to provide a detailed description.

[0058] In the following embodiments of the present invention, the polyurethane hollow spheres with a particle size of 5 mm have a wall thickness of 0.2 mm, the polyurethane hollow spheres with a particle size of 1.5 cm have a wall thickness of 0.7 mm, and the polyurethane hollow spheres with a particle size of 3 cm have a wall thickness of 1.8 mm; the sphere walls of all three types of polyurethane hollow spheres are filled with sodium calcium borosilicate glass hollow filler spheres with a particle size of 30 μm, and the filling amount is 35 wt% of the mass of the polyurethane hollow spheres.

[0064] 5.5 kg of butyl rubber was plasticized in an internal mixer at a temperature of 120°C for 15 minutes. After internal mixing, it was mixed in an open mixing mill. 0.1 kg of sulfur, 0.07 kg of accelerator DM, 0.1 kg of stearic acid and 0.3 kg of zinc oxide were added to the mixing mill and mixed evenly. Ten triangular bags were then formed in a thin pass. 1 kg of mica powder (average particle size 52 μm, aspect ratio 80) and 0.5 kg of hollow glass microspheres (particle size 30 μm, wall thickness 1.3 μm) were added and mixed evenly. The mixture was then filled into a cavity mold. After mold closing, it was vulcanized at 150°C and 15 MPa for 30 minutes to obtain rubber sound-absorbing tiles.

[0065] Comparative Example 2

[0066] 4 kg of bisphenol A type epoxy resin (epoxy equivalent of 185.6 g / eq), 0.8 kg of glycidyl ether, 0.3 kg of KH550 silane coupling agent, and 4 kg of dodecenyl succinic anhydride were added to a stirred tank and stirred at 50°C under vacuum for 20 minutes. 4 kg of hollow glass microspheres (particle size of 40 μm, wall thickness of 0.8 μm, made of soda lime borosilicate glass) were added to the stirred tank and stirred at 50°C under vacuum for 40 minutes. The mixed material was poured into a mold and heated to 130°C for 8 hours to cure. After the material was cured, it was cooled and removed to obtain the microsphere resin composite material.

[0067] Performance Evaluation

[0068] The products in the examples and comparative examples were tested for density, compressive strength, elastic modulus, sound absorption coefficient, and insertion loss (6 MPa), and the following results were obtained:

[0069]

[0070] The results in the table above show that: ① Compared with Comparative Example 1, Examples 1 and 2 have higher compressive strength and higher average sound absorption coefficient at a water pressure of 6 MPa while having a lower density; ② Compared with Comparative Example 2, Examples 1 and 2 have a lower compressive strength while having the same density, but the sound absorption and sound insulation performance of the materials are greatly improved; ③ Compared with Example 1, Example 2 has better average sound absorption coefficient and average insertion loss.

It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
