Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of polymeric materials, and in particular to adhesive coated magnets, magnet assemblies, and electrical devices. [Background technology]

[0002] As permanent magnet motors are widely used in new energy vehicles, motor magnet assembly is one of the key processes in the production of new energy vehicles. A fastening method that can achieve a higher bonding force between the magnet and the core in the motor is a technical issue that needs to be resolved as soon as possible.

[0003] Currently, it is common to apply an adhesive to the magnet and / or core, then bond the magnet and core together and cure the adhesive to form a hardened adhesive coating between the magnet and core. The bonding strength between the adhesive coating and magnet, the bonding strength between the adhesive and core, and the strength of the adhesive itself are all important factors that affect the bonding strength between the magnet and core.

[0004] For example, CN102934329A discloses a motor rotor that includes a rotor core, a permanent magnet, and a rotor shaft, in which the permanent magnet is fixed with a resin material filled between the inner wall of a permanent magnet insertion hole in the rotor core and the side surface of the permanent magnet, thereby achieving adhesion between the magnet and the rotor core.

[0005] As another example, CN106824730A discloses that a powder coating made from a thermosetting bisphenol A type epoxy polyester resin powder, p-toluenesulfonylhydrazide expanding agent, and dimethylimidazole curing agent is applied to the surface of a magnet, intermediately cured at 70 to 120°C, inserted into a motor slot, and finally cured at 120 to 200°C, thereby achieving adhesion between the magnet and the slot.

[0006] As another example, Patent Document No. JP2007174872A discloses that a resin that is solid at room temperature is used, and in order to improve the impact resistance of the adhesive sheet, a foamed resin sheet is produced by adding a foaming agent to the resin, resulting in a cured material containing bubbles inside. By using a foamed resin sheet instead of a liquid adhesive, problems such as adhesive leakage, uneven adhesive application, and adhesive deformation or peeling can be overcome, and assembly efficiency and processing accuracy can be improved.

[0007] However, the bond strength between the magnet and the core in conventional motors needs to be further improved. Summary of the Invention

[0016] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Although the drawings show several embodiments of the present invention, it should be understood that the present invention can be realized in various forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments described herein, but rather, these embodiments are provided for a more thorough and complete understanding of the present invention.

[0017] It should be understood that the steps recited in the method embodiments of the present invention may be performed in various orders and / or in parallel, and that method embodiments may include additional steps and / or omit performing steps as shown, and the scope of the present invention is not limited in this respect.

[0018] The present invention provides an adhesive-coated magnet, comprising a magnetic substrate and an adhesive coating, the adhesive coating being applied to at least a portion of the outer surface of the magnetic substrate, the adhesive coating being obtained by applying an adhesive composition comprising a base resin and an expansion agent, the expansion agent being located near the magnetic substrate in the adhesive coating, and the height of the expansion agent distribution being 50% or less of the cross-sectional thickness of the adhesive coating.

[0019] Optionally, the deposition method includes at least one of dip coating, blade coating, brush coating, roll coating, stamp coating, or spray coating.

[0020] Optionally, the adhesive coating is obtained by pre-curing the adhesive composition after application, the pre-curing temperature being 40-90°C.

[0021] Optionally, the adhesive composition is in the form of a powder, a liquid, a cloudy liquid, or the like.

[0022] Optionally, the swelling agent is at least one of expandable microspheres, diazoaminobenzene, ammonium polyphosphate, azodicarbonamide, ammonium carbonate, and sodium bicarbonate.

[0023] Optionally, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the expansion agent is concentrated in the middle and lower portions of the adhesive coating and is close to the surface of the magnetic substrate, ensuring that the expansion spaces having the bubble form formed during the expansion of the adhesive coating are as far away as possible from contact with the core, increasing the contact area between the base resin in the adhesive coating and the core, and improving the bonding strength between the adhesive layer and the core after expansion.

[0024] Optionally, the adhesive coating has a thickness of 80-150 μm, a softening point of 60-80° C., and an expansion rate of 80%-200%.

[0025] According to one embodiment of the present invention, after the adhesive coating expands without pressure, the expansion space (height of the expanded bubbles) having the bubble shape formed during the expansion of the adhesive coating becomes closer to the magnetic substrate, and the base resin in the adhesive coating accumulates more on the side farther from the magnetic substrate, which has been fully proven to improve the adhesion of the adhesive coating.

[0026] Optionally, the content of the swelling agent is 0.5 to 20 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the base resin.

[0027] Optionally, the expansion agent is a coated expandable microsphere, which comprises uncoated expandable microspheres and a coating layer covering the outer surface of the uncoated expandable microspheres. The uncoated expandable microspheres comprise a polymer shell and an expandable matrix encapsulated in the polymer shell. The coating layer comprises a coating resin and a heavy inorganic filler embedded in the coating resin. The particle size of the uncoated expandable microspheres is 3 to 30 μm. The coating resin is a thermoplastic resin having a softening point of 40 to 100°C, preferably at least one of acrylic resin, polysulfone resin, and melamine formaldehyde resin. The particle size of the heavy inorganic filler is 0.5 to 30 μm, and the compressed density is 3.1 to 7.8 g / cm. 3The heavy inorganic filler comprises at least one of a carbonate, a phosphate, a polyphosphate, a metal oxide, and a non-metallic compound, wherein the carbonate is preferably at least one of calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, and zinc carbonate, the phosphate is preferably at least one of calcium phosphate and sodium phosphate, the polyphosphate is preferably at least one of calcium polyphosphate and aluminum polyphosphate, the metal oxide is preferably at least one of aluminum oxide, rare earth oxide, and triiron tetroxide, and the non-metallic compound is preferably at least one of silicon dioxide, silicon nitride, and silicon carbide.

[0028] Optionally, the content of the coating resin is 0.1 to 1.8 parts by weight and the content of the heavy inorganic filler is 1 to 15 parts by weight, relative to 1 part by weight of the uncoated expandable microspheres.

[0029] By increasing the density of coated expandable microspheres with a heavy inorganic filler, the coated expandable microspheres are concentrated in the lower and middle portions of the adhesive coating due to gravity, closer to the surface of the magnetic substrate. The liquid alkane filled in the polymer shell of conventional uncoated expandable microspheres has a low density and is generally uniformly suspended throughout the adhesive coating. Coated expandable microspheres are obtained by mixing uncoated expandable microspheres with a heavy inorganic filler, and the density of the expandable microspheres is adjusted by controlling the density range of the heavy inorganic filler. As the density increases, the volume increases relatively and the buoyancy decreases, causing the coated expandable microspheres to concentrate in the lower and middle portions of the adhesive composition. Before applying the adhesive composition to the magnetic substrate, the adhesive composition is stirred to ensure that the coated expandable microspheres are more uniformly dispersed in the adhesive composition. After applying the adhesive composition to the magnetic substrate, the coated expandable microspheres settle and concentrate in the lower and middle portions of the adhesive coating due to gravity during the standing and pre-curing process. This ensures that the bubble-shaped expansion space formed during the expansion of the adhesive coating is as far away as possible from contact with the core, increasing the contact area between the base resin in the adhesive coating and the core, and improving the bonding strength between the adhesive layer and the core after expansion.

[0030] Optionally, the expandable microspheres can be prepared by mixing uncoated expandable microspheres, a heavy inorganic filler, and a coating resin, followed by spray-drying the mixture at a temperature of 40-60°C for 0.1-2 minutes.

[0031] In the present invention, by adding a coating resin to uncoated expandable microspheres and a heavy inorganic filler, the coating resin exerts its mediating and adhesive effects, allowing the heavy inorganic filler to completely adhere to the surface of the polymer shell of the uncoated expandable microspheres. Furthermore, by producing the coated expandable microspheres using a spray drying method, separation of the heavy inorganic filler and the uncoated expandable microspheres can be further prevented.

[0032] Optionally, the base resin comprises a thermosetting resin and a thermoplastic resin, and the weight ratio of the thermoplastic resin to the thermosetting resin is 1:1-10, preferably 1:2-8. The thermosetting resin is at least one of an epoxy resin, a hydroxyacrylic resin, and a polyurethane resin. The epoxy resin is any one of a bisphenol A epoxy resin, a bisphenol F epoxy resin, and a bisphenol S epoxy resin. Preferably, the epoxy resin is an acrylic acid-modified epoxy resin, and more preferably, an acrylic acid-modified aqueous bisphenol S epoxy resin. The thermoplastic resin is at least one of an acrylic resin, a polysulfone resin, and a melamine formaldehyde resin.

[0033] Optionally, the acrylic acid modifying group in the acrylic acid modified epoxy resin includes acrylic acid carboxyl monomers, acrylic acid hydroxy monomers, and other monomers. The acrylic carboxyl monomer contains either an acrylic acid group, a methylene succinic acid group, or a methacrylic acid group. The acrylic hydroxy monomer contains either a glycidyl methacrylate group or a methyl methacrylate group. The other monomer contains either a hydroxymethylacrylamide group or a styrene group.

[0034] Optionally, the adhesive composition further comprises reinforcing resin particles, the reinforcing resin particles comprising a light inorganic filler, a highly adhesive resin and a dispersible resin attached to the light inorganic filler, and a filler gas encapsulated in the highly adhesive resin and the dispersible resin.

[0035] Optionally, the reinforcing resin particles are obtained by mixing a light inorganic filler, a high adhesive resin, a dispersing resin and a solvent to obtain a mixture, and spray drying the mixture.

[0036] Optionally, the light inorganic filler is at least one of fumed silica and fumed alumina. The highly adhesive resin is at least one of β-hydroxyethyl acrylate resin, hydantoin epoxy resin, and tripolyphosphazene epoxy resin. The dispersible resin is a thermoplastic resin having a softening point of 40 to 100°C, and is preferably at least one of acrylic resin, methacrylic resin, polysulfone resin, melamine formaldehyde resin, and polyolefin resin. The filler gas is at least one of air, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and helium.

[0037] Optionally, the particle size of the reinforcing resin particles is 0.5 to 30 μm. The content of the high adhesive resin is 1 to 8 parts by weight, and the content of the dispersing resin is 1 to 10 parts by weight, relative to 1 part by weight of the light inorganic filler.

[0038] Optionally, the specific surface area of ​​the light inorganic filler is 150~400m 2 / g, and the compressed density is 0.02 to 0.20 g / cm 3 The molecular weight of the β-hydroxyethyl acrylate resin is 5,000 to 50,000 daltons, and preferably 10,000 to 21,000 daltons.

[0039] In the present invention, the addition of light inorganic fillers such as fumed silica and / or fumed alumina allows the high affinity and surface tension of the light inorganic fillers to sufficiently adsorb and fix the highly adhesive resin to the reinforced resin particles, and their low density allows the overall density of the reinforced resin particles to be sufficiently reduced. The addition of a filler gas allows the reinforced resin particles to overcome the effects of gravity during heating and increase their buoyancy. The synergistic effect of the light inorganic filler and the filler gas allows the reinforced resin particles to concentrate vertically and distribute uniformly horizontally on the surface of the adhesive coating, and further float during heating, overcoming the effects of gravity and partial inhibition by the base resin.

[0040] In the present invention, by adding a highly adhesive resin, the adhesive strength of the reinforcing resin particles can be effectively increased, and the collapse of the expansion space can be prevented.

[0041] Optionally, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the content of the reinforcing resin particles is 1-15 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the base resin.

[0042] Optionally, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the weight ratio of thermoplastic resin to thermosetting resin is 1:1-10, preferably 1:2-8.

[0043] Optionally, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the adhesive composition further comprises an additive, and the additive is at least one of a leveling agent, an anti-settling agent, a dispersant, an anti-foaming agent, a curing agent, a coalescing agent, and a medium inorganic filler. The leveling agent is at least one of a silicone oil leveling agent and an organosiloxane leveling agent. The content of the additive is 1 to 9 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the base resin. The anti-settling agent is at least one of a silica anti-settling agent and an organic bentonite anti-settling agent. The anti-foaming agent is at least one of a polysiloxane anti-foaming agent and a fatty acid ester anti-foaming agent. The dispersing agent is at least one of a magnesium stearate dispersant and a sodium oleate dispersant. The coalescing agent is at least one of an ethylene glycol butyl ether coalescing agent and a propylene glycol butyl ether coalescing agent. The curing agent is at least one of a phenolic resin curing agent and an aliphatic polyamine curing agent, and the aliphatic polyamine curing agent is at least one of ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine, and triethylenetetramine. The particle size of the medium-weight inorganic filler is 0.5 to 30 μm, and the compressed density is 2.1 to 3.0 g / cm. 3 and preferably at least one of calcium oxide, zinc oxide, calcium carbonate, and inorganic fibers, and the inorganic fibers are at least one of carbon fibers, metal fibers, and glass fibers.

[0044] The present invention further provides a magnet assembly, which includes the above-mentioned magnet and a core, and has an adhesive layer between the magnet and the core obtained by thermally curing an adhesive coating at 150 to 200°C. The shear strength of the adhesive coating is 1 to 15 MPa at room temperature and 1 to 10 MPa at high temperatures of 120 to 180°C.

[0045] Optionally, the adhesive layer obtained by heat curing has expanded bubbles near the magnetic substrate, and the height of the expanded bubbles is 80% or less of the cross-sectional thickness of the adhesive layer obtained by heat curing. It has been well proven that after the adhesive coating expands in the absence of pressure, the expanded spaces (height of the expanded bubbles) having the bubble morphology formed during the expansion of the adhesive coating are closer to the magnetic substrate, and the base resin in the adhesive coating accumulates more on the side farther from the magnetic substrate, thereby improving the adhesion of the adhesive coating.

[0046] The present invention further provides an electric device, which includes the magnet assembly described above.
