Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of underwater acoustic materials technology, and particularly relates to a Z-axis reinforced pressure-resistant sound-absorbing composite structure based on in-situ foaming process and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] The stealth performance of underwater vehicles relies on highly efficient sound-absorbing materials, while the deep-sea environment places stringent requirements on the pressure resistance of these materials (e.g., a hydrostatic pressure of approximately 10 MPa at a water depth of 1000m). Traditional sound-absorbing materials (such as rubber and aluminum foam) suffer from insufficient pressure resistance and complex manufacturing processes. For example, porous foam materials are easily compressed and deformed under high pressure, leading to a sharp decline in sound absorption performance under water pressure; layered composite structures are prepared through adhesive bonding processes, resulting in low interfacial bonding strength and easy delamination failure under water pressure.

[0003] Patent CN 102930862 B describes a Z-axis reinforced underwater sound-absorbing sandwich composite material and its preparation method. The material includes a composite panel, a sound-absorbing core, and a reinforcing structure positioned between the top and bottom panels in the Z-axis (thickness direction) of the sound-absorbing core. The reinforcing structure involves machining holes in the core material, followed by threading and sewing, and then embedding titanium or stainless steel rods for pre-bonding the core material. This method requires time-consuming and labor-intensive drilling and sewing, as well as embedding and bonding of the metal support structure. The process is complex and cannot guarantee the interfacial bonding strength between the sound-absorbing core and the panel. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Based on the problems existing in the above-mentioned background technology, the present invention provides a Z-direction reinforced pressure-resistant sound-absorbing composite structure and its preparation method based on in-situ foaming process. The sound-absorbing foam material is formed in a preform such as 2.5D fabric using the in-situ foaming process, which ensures the interfacial bonding strength between the sound-absorbing foam material and the fabric surface layer, overcomes the contradiction between the pressure resistance and sound absorption performance of traditional sound-absorbing sandwich materials, realizes the integration of sound-absorbing and pressure-resistant structure functions, simplifies the Z-direction reinforcement preparation process, and improves the structural stability.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A Z-direction reinforced pressure-resistant sound-absorbing composite structure based on in-situ foaming process includes a fiber-reinforced composite material frame and an internal sound-absorbing core layer. The fiber-reinforced composite material frame is a 2.5D fabric-reinforced resin matrix composite material formed by vacuum-introducing a resin matrix into a continuous structure of hollow 2.5D fabric and Z-direction reinforced skeleton. The main structure of the fiber-reinforced composite frame uses hollow 2.5D fabric as the outer surface skin. The inner hollow layer uses the same type of 2.5D fabric fibers to form a Z-direction reinforcing skeleton in the Z direction. The fiber structure and size of the Z-direction reinforcing skeleton can be adjusted according to the sound absorption and pressure resistance requirements of the actual application. The recommended value is columnar fibers with a diameter of 1~9mm and a fiber spacing of 20~60mm to form a lattice structure. The Z direction is the thickness direction of the sound-absorbing core layer and the hollow 2.5D fabric. The hollow 2.5D fabric has a fiber volume content of 40% to 60%, and the surface layer thickness can be adjusted according to the needs of sound-absorbing materials in different frequency bands, with a recommended value of 2 to 100 mm; the cavity thickness is matched with the sound-absorbing core layer thickness and can be designed according to sound absorption requirements, with a recommended value of 4 to 200 mm. The sound-absorbing core layer is formed by in-situ foaming of sound-absorbing foam material in the cavity inside a 2.5D hollow fabric, achieving sound absorption performance within the designed frequency band.

[0006] Furthermore, the warp and weft yarns of the hollow 2.5D fabric described in this invention are made of glass fiber, carbon fiber or aramid fiber, and the yarn linear density is 1000~3000tex.

[0007] Furthermore, the sound-absorbing foaming material of the present invention is a polymer foaming material or an inorganic-organic hybrid foaming material, wherein the polymer foaming material is a polyurethane foaming material or a rubber foaming material, and the inorganic-organic hybrid foaming material is a ceramic microsphere / epoxy resin composite foam.

[0008] Furthermore, the present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned Z-axis reinforced pressure-resistant sound-absorbing composite structure, comprising the following steps: (1) Cut and weave 2.5D fabric into a pre-set size structure, hollow layer with a pre-set sound-absorbing core layer thickness inside, and use Z-direction traction fiber columns to connect the upper and lower fabric surfaces to form a Z-direction reinforcing skeleton to obtain a pre-formed fabric. Then, put the pre-formed fabric into a forced-air drying oven to dry and set it for later use. The drying temperature is 90~120℃, and the drying time is 1~3h; In step (1), according to the pressure resistance requirements, other Z-direction reinforcement structures are also embedded in the hollow layer of the 2.5D fabric and wrapped around the outside of the Z-direction tension fiber. The Z-direction reinforcement structure includes metal support columns or 3D printed reinforcements. The 3D printed reinforcement contains open pores with a porosity of 50-80%, which facilitates the flow of foaming adhesive. (2) The pre-formed fabric after pretreatment and drying in step (1) is laid in the mold. After the mold is closed, it fits the 2.5D fabric size and is limited to ensure that the fabric is fixed in position during the foaming process. The mold is a stainless steel male and female mold, with an injection port and an exhaust hole on each side of the mold. The mold cavity size matches the size of the preformed fabric, and the preformed fabric is embedded in the mold cavity to restrict its movement. Furthermore, the mold is provided with a limiting structure for positioning the preformed fabric. Specifically, a metal hook is inserted into the 2.5D fabric to fix it or double-sided tape is used to fix the fabric. (3) After mixing the components of the foaming material, inject it into the 2.5D hollow fabric layer in the mold through the injection port, and let the internal air out through the vent hole. After filling the cavity of the hollow 2.5D fabric, seal the injection port and the vent hole, and let the foaming material chemically foam and form itself. The foaming material mainly includes sound-absorbing foaming material and foaming agent. Specifically, the foaming material formula in the embodiment of patent CN118725238 B can be used. (4) The overall structure after foaming and molding in step (3) is injected with resin matrix using vacuum infusion process so that the fabric is completely impregnated. After the resin gels, it is placed in an oven to cure and mold. The resin matrix is ​​epoxy resin or vinyl ester resin; The vacuum level is controlled between -0.08 and -0.1 MPa.

[0009] (5) After curing and molding, demolding is performed. After demolding, the structure is trimmed to remove flash and excess material, and the composite structure described in this invention is obtained.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) The in-situ foaming Z-direction reinforcement structure deeply integrates the load-bearing skeleton with the sound absorption function. The Z-direction reinforcement frame effectively disperses hydrostatic pressure and avoids sound absorption failure caused by cavity compression and collapse. This integrated design ensures the realization of underwater acoustic stealth performance by optimizing the structural pressure resistance.

[0011] (2) By foaming the sound-absorbing core material in situ within the 2.5D preformed fabric, the processing and assembly of the sound-absorbing core material are avoided, simplifying the traditional multi-step stitching composite process and shortening the manufacturing cycle.

[0012] (3) In-situ foaming of the core material ensures the continuity of the sound-absorbing core material structure. On the other hand, the structural interface eliminates weak bonding areas through the injection process, enhances the interlayer bonding strength and anti-delamination ability, and extends the service life of the component.
