Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of amination technology of spinning dope in the carbon fiber industry, and specifically relates to an amination system for polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber spinning dope. Background Technology
[0002] Polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber is a high-performance fiber material with excellent properties such as high specific strength, high specific modulus, low density, and chemical stability. It is widely used in aerospace, automotive, and sporting goods industries.
[0003] The quality of the precursor fiber is the key to determining the various properties of carbon fiber. A large part of the defects in the precursor fiber come from the coagulation bath. The core-sheath structure and large pores generated in the coagulation bath are important factors affecting the performance of carbon fiber.
[0004] Ammoniation of spinning solutions increases their hydrophilicity and effectively reduces the core-sheath structure and macropores during the coagulation bath stage, contributing to the production of high-quality yarn. However, current ammoniation systems for spinning solutions suffer from frost formation on the ammonia cylinders during the ammonia addition process. This frost formation can lead to a series of problems, such as reduced ammonia vaporization, pressure fluctuations in the ammonia pipeline, even cessation of ammonia supply, and problems like solution backflow or blockage of the ammonia pipeline. Furthermore, due to the generally high viscosity of the spinning solution, achieving uniform mixing of ammonia with the spinning solution is a significant challenge in ammoniation. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The present invention aims to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art and provides an amination system for polyacrylonitrile spinning dope.
[0006] The above-mentioned technical problems of this utility model are mainly solved by the following technical solution: an ammoniation system for polyacrylonitrile spinning dope. To solve the above problems, this utility model provides an ammoniation system for polyacrylonitrile spinning dope, including: an ammonia cylinder insulation device, the outside of which is an open insulation cotton, which is tightened and loosened with Velcro; a rubber heat tracing pipe is installed inside, which is arranged in a dense lower part and sparse upper part on the insulation cotton, and the heat tracing pipe is insulated with hot water; a hot water regulating valve is on the hot water inlet pipe of the device, and a temperature sensor is located on the lower side of the ammonia cylinder. The temperature sensor transmits the temperature signal of the ammonia cylinder to the PLC module, and the PLC module controls the opening of the hot water regulating valve to maintain the temperature stability of the lower side of the ammonia cylinder.
[0007] The weight sensor is placed on the lower side of the ammonia cylinder. There is an ammonia regulating valve on the ammonia pipeline. The weight sensor transmits the weight signal of the ammonia cylinder and its accessories to the PLC module in real time. The PLC converts the weight signal into a weight loss signal per unit time, i.e., a mass flow signal. Then, the PLC module controls the valve flow of the ammonia regulating valve to control the ammonia addition rate.
[0008] Pressure sensor and check valve: The pressure sensor is mainly used to detect the pressure value on the ammonia pipeline and the spinning solution pipeline, and the check valve prevents the spinning solution on the solution pipeline from flowing into the ammonia pipeline.
[0009] The ammonia distributor is a short flanged pipe with a jacket. The inner pipe of the jacket has holes of the same size evenly distributed. The center of the outer pipe of the short pipe is connected to the ammonia pipeline, which increases the contact area between the ammonia and the spinning solution, so as to achieve the purpose of uniform contact between the ammonia and the solution. The flange on the ammonia distributor is bolted to the flange on the main pipeline, and the flange on the ammonia pipeline is bolted to the check valve. The ammonia distributor can be disassembled and cleaned at any time.
[0010] The static mixer is used to further mix ammonia and spinning solution after they are mixed, so as to achieve uniform mixing of ammonia and spinning solution.
[0011] Preferably, in the above-mentioned amination system, the amination system is used in any process after polymerization and before spinning; the viscosity of the spinning solution from the upstream side is ≤150,000 cP.
[0012] Preferably, in the above-mentioned ammoniation system, the ammonia cylinder and its associated ammonia cylinder insulation device, temperature sensor, weight sensor, hot water regulating valve, and pressure reducing valve are all configured in a one-in-one standby configuration. When the ammonia cylinder weight sensor detects that the weight no longer changes, it immediately switches to the standby ammonia cylinder to provide ammonia to ensure the continuity of the system.
[0013] Preferably, in the above-mentioned ammoniation system, the temperature below the ammonia cylinder is ≤30°C and the temperature of the hot water in the heat tracing pipe is ≤35°C.
[0014] Preferably, in the above-mentioned ammoniation system, the pressure measured on the ammonia pipeline is greater than the pressure measured on the raw liquid pipeline.
[0015] Preferably, in the above-mentioned ammoniation system, the hot water in the ammonia cylinder insulation device enters from the bottom and exits from the top, with the lower heat tracing pipes being dense and the upper heat tracing pipes being relatively sparse.
[0016] Preferably, in the above-mentioned ammonia system, the weight sensor has an accuracy of 0.01g or higher and a range of 500kg or higher. The PLC continuously receives the weight signal and converts it into a weight reduction signal per unit time, i.e., a mass flow rate signal, such as 2.5kg / h. The converted mass flow rate signal is interlocked with the ammonia regulating valve, and the ammonia flow rate can be adjusted according to the production line's capacity.
[0017] Preferably, in the above-mentioned ammoniation system, the ammonia distributor is connected to both the main pipeline and the ammonia pipeline by flanges, allowing for timely disassembly and cleaning.
[0018] Preferably, in the above-mentioned ammonia system, the static mixer is a combination of SX and SK types.
[0019] This invention has the following advantages: it solves the problem of frost forming at the bottom of ammonia cylinders due to heat absorption during ammonia vaporization, and controls the temperature to make ammonia vaporization more stable; it uses the weight reduction method to measure the ammonia addition rate, making the measurement more accurate and the amount of ammonia added more precise; the ammonia distributor makes the ammonia addition more uniform, and can be quickly disassembled for cleaning when not in use for a long time.
