Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of sheet materials, specifically relating to a high-impact, aging-resistant PC sheet and its co-extrusion molding process. Background Technology
[0002] PC sheet, also known as polycarbonate sheet, is a plastic sheet made primarily of polycarbonate using co-extrusion technology. Due to its excellent transparency, impact resistance, and heat resistance, PC sheet is widely used in various fields. However, PC sheet has the following drawbacks with long-term use: 1. Due to its high molecular chain rigidity, its low-temperature toughness and stress cracking resistance are poor, leading to a significant decline in mechanical properties after long-term use and aging; 2. Outdoor exposure to ultraviolet radiation easily causes photo-oxidative aging, resulting in yellowing and a decrease in overall strength.
[0003] To address these shortcomings, traditional processes often employ single-formula modification, such as: improving PC performance solely by adding toughening agents and weather-resistant additives; while this increases strength, it significantly reduces the light transmittance of the sheet; or by co-extruding a functional layer onto the PC core surface, but this technique suffers from large temperature variations, resulting in insufficient bonding and delamination over long-term use; or by applying UV or nano-coatings after PC sheet molding, but the adhesion between the coating and the substrate is limited, and the coating is easily damaged; among these, CN104448756A discloses a coated PC sheet and its preparation method. The coated PC sheet prepared by this method has a low proportion of infrared additives, a simple preparation method, good thermal insulation effect, guaranteed light transmittance, and low product cost; however, it still does not improve high impact resistance and aging resistance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-impact and aging-resistant PC sheet and its co-extrusion molding process, which can improve the high impact resistance and aging resistance of PC sheets, making them possess both high impact resistance and aging resistance.

The barrel temperature is controlled in sections from the feeding section to the metering section. The temperature setting range is 250~280℃. The screw speed range is 40~80rpm. The melt pressure is controlled at 12~18MPa.

[0026] S6: Finished product preparation: After cooling and shaping, the continuous sheet material is trimmed at both sides by an edge trimmer, pulled at a constant speed by traction rollers, and finally cut to a fixed length to obtain the target product.

The distributor employs a gradient temperature flow channel and has independently temperature-controlled core layer flow channel, transition zone, and surface layer flow channel: the core layer flow channel temperature zone is 273℃; the transition temperature zone between the core layer and surface layer flow channels is 250℃; and the surface layer flow channel temperature zone is 245℃.
9. A co-extrusion process for high impact and weatherable PC sheet as claimed in claim 4 wherein: In step S5, the three-layer composite sheet extruded from the die head enters the three-roll calender unit; the roller temperature setting range is 105℃, and gradient temperature control is adopted: upper roller 105℃ / middle roller 115℃ / lower roller 120℃; the ratio of the extraction speed to the extrusion line speed is 1.02.
