Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of enameled wire technology, and in particular to 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors and its production method. Background Technology
[0002] New energy drive motors employ variable frequency speed control technology. The high-frequency pulse voltage output by the inverter can cause severe partial discharge (corona) at the winding ends. At the same time, the motor operates at high temperatures (up to 220℃), experiences frequent thermal cycles (-40℃ to 220℃), and is in long-term contact with cooling media such as ATF oil. This places stringent requirements on the corona resistance, thermal cycling reliability, and oil-resistant heat dissipation performance of the enameled wire.
[0003] The existing 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled wires have the following main problems: First, the interface between the enamel layers is a flat plane, resulting in insufficient interlayer bonding and easy peeling after long-term thermal cycling; second, the corona-resistant filler is uniformly distributed in the enamel layer, which cannot simultaneously meet the multiple requirements of thermal conductivity, corona resistance, and surface hardness; third, the enamel film surface is smooth, resulting in limited heat dissipation efficiency; and fourth, the enamel film lacks an effective crack-blocking mechanism, so once corona damage causes cracks, they propagate rapidly.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a 220-grade polyimide enameled copper round wire with excellent corona resistance, interlayer bonding strength, and heat dissipation capacity, as well as its corresponding production method. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors and a production method thereof. This invention solves the technical problems of easy peeling between enameled wire layers, insufficient corona resistance, and low heat dissipation efficiency in existing technologies through the synergistic design of interlayer wavy interfaces, nanofiber networks within the enamel layer, and spiral shallow grooves on the surface.
[0006] The technical solution of the present invention:
[0007] The 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors includes a copper conductor and multiple layers of enamel coating covering the copper conductor. The interface between adjacent enamel coating layers is a wavy shape extending along the axial direction. The surface of the outermost enamel coating layer is provided with a spiral shallow groove. The multiple enamel coating layers include, from the inside out, a primer layer, a gradient corona-resistant layer, an interface transition layer, and a topcoat layer.
[0008] In the aforementioned 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors, the thickness of the primer layer is 3-8 μm, the thickness of the gradient corona-resistant layer is 15-30 μm, the thickness of the interface transition layer is 2-5 μm, and the thickness of the topcoat layer is 3-6 μm.
[0009] In the aforementioned 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors, the depth of the spiral shallow groove is 30%-50% of the thickness of the topcoat layer, the pitch is 0.5-2mm, and the helix angle is 15°-45°; the spiral shallow groove is a single helix or a double helix.

[0011] A method for producing 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors includes the following steps:
[0012] S1. Conductor pretreatment: The copper rod is drawn to the target diameter and then annealed online to obtain a copper conductor.
[0013] S2, Primer coating: Polyamide-imide primer is coated on the surface of the copper conductor. The primer contains polyether block copolymer and polyimide nanofibers. After coating, it is semi-cured. Then, a wavy pattern is pressed on the surface of the primer layer by an embossing mold and then cured.
[0014] S3. Gradient corona-resistant layer coating: A gradient corona-resistant layer is formed by multiple coating passes. The gradient corona-resistant layer includes an inner sublayer, a middle sublayer, and an outer sublayer, which are respectively filled with nano-inorganic fillers and polyimide nanofibers. The content of the nano-inorganic fillers changes in a gradient from the inside to the outside. After each coating pass, a semi-curing treatment is performed, and a wavy pattern is pressed on the surface using an embossing mold. Finally, it is cured.
[0015] S4. Interface transition layer coating: Apply silicone-modified polyamide-imide transition paint to the surface of the gradient corona resistant layer, perform semi-curing treatment, and then press wavy patterns on the surface using an embossing mold.
[0016] S5. Topcoat coating: Polyamide-imide topcoat is coated on the surface of the interface transition layer. Fluorinated graphene microsheets and polyimide nanofibers are added to the topcoat. After semi-curing, spiral shallow grooves are opened on the surface of the topcoat, and finally it is fully cured.
[0017] S6. Post-processing: Online detection and cable recovery.

[0019] In the aforementioned production method of 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors, the embossing mold is an annular mold with wavy protrusions on the surface. The wavy protrusions extend along the axial direction of the mold, the height of the protrusions is 15-30% of the corresponding paint layer thickness, and the protrusion spacing is 0.5-2mm.
[0020] In the aforementioned method for producing 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors, in step S3, the content of nano-Al2O3 in the inner sublayer is 5-8 wt%, and the content of polyimide nanofibers is 1-2 wt%; the content of nano-Al2O3 in the middle sublayer is 10-15 wt%, and the content of polyimide nanofibers is 2-3 wt%; the content of nano-SiO2 in the outer sublayer is 3-5 wt%, and the content of polyimide nanofibers is 0.5-1 wt%; the nano-inorganic filler is surface-modified with a silane coupling agent.
[0021] In the aforementioned method for producing 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors, step S3 specifically includes:
[0022] Apply 2-3 coats of inner layer paint, with each coat applied to the outer surface of the primer layer, naturally replicating the wavy pattern on the outer surface of the primer layer on the inner surface; after coating, semi-cur at 280-320℃ for 2-4 seconds, and then press the wavy pattern onto the outer surface of the inner layer using an embossing mold.
[0023] Apply 2-4 coats of intermediate layer paint, with each coat applying intermediate layer paint to the outer surface of the inner layer, naturally replicating the wavy pattern of the outer surface of the inner layer on the inner surface; after coating, semi-cur at 320-380℃ for 2-4 seconds, and press the wavy pattern on the outer surface of the intermediate layer using an embossing mold.
[0024] Apply 1-3 coats of outer sublayer paint, with each coat applying the outer sublayer paint to the outer surface of the middle sublayer, and the inner surface naturally replicating the wavy pattern of the outer surface of the middle sublayer; after coating, semi-cur at 380-420℃ for 2-4 seconds, and press the wavy pattern on the outer surface of the outer sublayer using an embossing mold.
[0025] Finally, cure completely at 420-450℃ for 5-8 seconds.
[0026] In the aforementioned method for producing 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors, in step S4, the silicone content in the silicone-modified polyamide-imide transition varnish is 10-15 wt%, the semi-curing temperature is 320-380℃, and the time is 2-4 s.
[0027] In the aforementioned method for producing 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors, in step S5, the content of the fluorinated graphene microsheets is 0.5-2wt%, the sheet diameter is 0.5-2μm, and the thickness is 3-5nm; the content of the polyimide nanofibers is 0.5-1wt%.
[0028] In the aforementioned method for producing 220-grade corona-resistant polyimide enameled copper round wire for new energy drive motors, grooving is performed in step S5 by means of laser or other methods.
[0029] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows:
[0030] 1. The wavy interface between layers increases the contact area between adjacent paint film layers, forming a mechanical interlocking effect and significantly improving the interlayer bonding strength; at the same time, the wavy interface extends the travel path of corona damage, so that corona discharge needs to bypass the peaks and troughs to penetrate the paint film.
[0031] 2. The polyimide nanofibers within the paint layer form a three-dimensional entangled network, acting as a bridge. When microcracks occur inside the paint layer, the nanofibers cross the two sides of the crack, preventing the crack from propagating. At the same time, the nanofibers increase the toughness of the paint layer and absorb the stress generated by thermal cycling.
[0032] 3. The spiral shallow grooves on the surface of the topcoat layer increase the surface area of the enameled wire, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency; the spiral shallow grooves change the surface electric field distribution, reducing local electric field concentration; at the same time, the spiral shallow grooves act as stress relief textures, alleviating thermal stress concentration.
[0033] 4. The wavy interface, nanofiber network and spiral shallow groove work synergistically. The wavy interface disperses stress and extends the corona path on a macroscopic level, the nanofiber bridges cracks and enhances toughness on a microscopic level, and the spiral shallow groove increases heat dissipation and releases stress on the surface, thus achieving a simultaneous improvement in corona resistance, interlayer bonding strength and heat dissipation capacity.
