Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of carbon fiber sizing agents, and in particular to a biomass activated carbon modified carbon fiber sizing agent, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Carbon fibers have high surface inertness, small specific surface area, and lack active functional groups. When used to prepare carbon fiber-reinforced resin matrix composites, this leads to low interfacial bonding strength between the carbon fibers and the resin matrix, easily causing interlaminar delamination and stress concentration. To compensate for these defects, existing technologies typically use sizing agents to treat the carbon fibers. Traditional sizing agents often use synthetic polymers such as polyurethane and polyacrylate, which can improve wettability but are difficult to simultaneously improve interfacial chemical bonding ability and load transfer efficiency.

[0003] In recent years, carbon nanomaterials (such as carbon nanotubes and graphene) have been attempted for sizing modification of carbon fibers, but problems such as difficulty in dispersion, high cost, and significant environmental risks exist, making them unsuitable for large-scale industrial production. Biomass-derived activated carbon has advantages such as renewability, low cost, and tunable structure, but conventional biomass activated carbon is in the form of disordered microporous particles with an excessively large specific surface area and chaotic surface polar functional groups. It cannot be adapted to the sizing properties on the carbon fiber surface, and its use can easily cause resin crosslinking quenching or phase separation, ultimately resulting in the inability to effectively construct an ordered interfacial reinforcement structure, which seriously affects the performance of carbon fiber reinforced resin matrix composites.

[0004] Based on this, a method for preparing a biomass activated carbon modified carbon fiber sizing agent is provided. By preparing specific biomass activated carbon, it can effectively adapt to the characteristics of existing carbon fiber sizing agents. While improving its wettability, it can simultaneously enhance the interfacial chemical bonding ability and load transfer efficiency of carbon fibers, improve the interfacial interaction between carbon fibers and resin matrix, and promote the construction of an ordered interfacial reinforcement structure of carbon fibers in resin matrix composites. This method has important technical significance and research value. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The present invention also provides the application of the biomass activated carbon modified carbon fiber sizing agent.

[0008] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A method for preparing a biomass activated carbon modified carbon fiber sizing agent includes the following steps: preparing sheet-like porous activated carbon and a mixed formulation; The method for preparing sheet-like porous activated carbon involves the following steps: sorghum stalks with a moisture content of <0.5 wt% are washed, carbonized at high temperature under inert gas protection, and then cooled; subsequently activated in air and cooled again; finally, acid-washed, washed with water until neutral, and dried to obtain a specific surface area of ​​1000-1300 m². 2 Flake-shaped porous activated carbon with an O / C atomic ratio of 0.08-0.12 per g. The method for preparing the mixed formulation is to mix a carbon fiber sizing agent with a solid content of 3-5 wt% with sheet-like porous activated carbon evenly to obtain a biomass activated carbon modified carbon fiber sizing agent. The resin matrix of the carbon fiber sizing agent is epoxy resin or vinyl resin.

[0009] Furthermore, in the preparation of sheet-like porous activated carbon, the high-temperature carbonization involves placing the cleaned sorghum stalk core in an inert gas environment, controlling the gauge pressure of the inert gas to be 0.05-0.1 bar, raising the temperature to 1000-1300℃, holding the temperature for carbonization for 40-60 minutes, and then cooling to complete the high-temperature carbonization treatment.

[0010] Furthermore, in the preparation of sheet-like porous activated carbon, air activation involves placing the high-temperature carbonized sorghum stalk core in an air atmosphere, heating it to 200-400℃ under normal pressure, holding it at that temperature for 40-80 minutes, and then cooling it to complete the air activation.

[0011] Preferably, in the preparation of the sheet-like porous activated carbon, the heating rate of high-temperature carbonization is 1-3℃ / min; The heating rate for air activation is 1-5℃ / min.

[0012] Preferably, in the preparation of sheet-like porous activated carbon, acid washing is carried out using dilute hydrochloric acid with a concentration of 1-3 mol / L.

[0013] Preferably, in the mixed formulation, the amount of sheet-like porous activated carbon added is controlled to be 0.01-1 wt% in the mixture of carbon fiber sizing agent and sheet-like porous activated carbon.

[0014] Furthermore, in the preparation of the sheet-like porous activated carbon, the cleaned sorghum stalk core is prepared by the following method: the sorghum stalk core is completely immersed in deionized water, heated to 60-80℃, and soaked for 1-2 hours. The solid matter is then separated and collected. The solid matter is washed and dried to obtain the cleaned sorghum stalk core.

It can improve the wettability of carbon fibers while simultaneously enhancing the interfacial chemical bonding ability and load transfer efficiency of carbon fibers, improving the interfacial interaction between carbon fibers and the resin matrix, and promoting the construction of an ordered interfacial reinforcement structure of carbon fibers in resin-based composite materials.
