Abstract
Description
Method for preparing large-thickness composite laminated wood TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of laminated wood preparation, and particularly relates to a method for preparing large-thickness composite laminated wood. BACKGROUND
[0002] Now, as a kind of artificial board, laminated wood has the advantages of high strength, good stability, easy processing, good insulation, good waterproof performance, etc., and has been widely used in many fields, such as the construction industry, furniture manufacturing, electrical insulation, thermal and thermal insulation materials, shipbuilding, etc. In particular, in the field of shipbuilding, laminated wood is used to manufacture ship structures, decks, interior decorations, cabin partitions, and marine furniture. With the rapid development of the low-temperature liquid cargo transportation industry, traditional laminated wood imported from abroad cannot meet the needs of domestic liquid cargo transportation shipbuilding, and many domestic enterprises have begun to develop new composite laminated wood. At present, the production process of composite laminated wood adopts pre-impregnated material molding, which has the advantages of high production efficiency, low cost, flexible design, high strength, light weight, and good surface quality.
[0003] However, pre-impregnated material molding is suitable for the manufacture of relatively thin materials. For example, a laminated wood molding method and laminated wood of composite material are provided in Chinese patent CN117430850A, which includes the following steps: step S1: cutting glass fiber material according to the size of the mold; step S2: adding hollow glass microbeads, flame retardants, coupling agents, and curing agents to the epoxy resin and mixing uniformly to form an epoxy resin glue solution; step S3: uniformly impregnating the glass fiber material in the epoxy resin glue solution to form a pre-impregnated material; step S4: loading the pre-impregnated material into the mold, heating and pressurizing the mold to make the pre-impregnated material cure and shape, forming an epoxy resin composite material; and step S5: demolding the cured and shaped epoxy resin composite material to obtain a composite material type laminated wood. However, various problems may occur in the molding process. (1) Current molding processes mostly use hot plates for heating. When the product thickness is large, the center of the product in the thickness direction is far away from the heating plate, and the heat transfer takes a long time, prolonging the curing time of the product and reducing the production efficiency. (2) The center and surface of the large-thickness product are heated unevenly. In order to completely cure the center without affecting the product performance, the curing time must be increased, and the surface layer in contact with the heating plate may be yellowed due to overheating, seriously affecting the appearance quality and mechanical strength of the product. (3) During the molding process, a large amount of heat is generated during the curing of the product, and the heat at the center of the product cannot be released due to the large thickness, resulting in core burning. In some liquid cargo transportation ships, the application thickness of laminated wood in liquid cargo tanks and liquid cargo tanks is as high as 500-600 mm, and products produced only by molding cannot meet the actual engineering application requirements.

[0045] S240, curing the adhesive;
[0046] S300, machining forming, polishing to remove the adhesive overflowing around the product, and removing the excess amount by mechanical processing to meet the design requirements.
[0047] In the step S100 of the compression molding, the prepreg is cut according to the design requirements, and the design can correspond to the size of the compression molding equipment. After cutting, the release paper or release film on the upper and lower surfaces of each layer of the prepreg is torn off. In the curing molding process, the preferred curing parameters are: temperature is room temperature ~ 140℃, molding pressure is 5 ~ 20 MPa, and molding time is 2 ~ 6h.
[0048] In the blank bonding surface, a rough surface is manufactured to improve the bonding strength of the adhesive, and then the bonding surface is cleaned with a solvent to remove oil stains, impurities and other factors affecting the bonding effect.
[0049] Generally, the rough surface is manufactured by sanding with sandpaper or laying a layer of release cloth on the upper and lower surfaces of the prepreg during compression molding. The release cloth is a mesh base cloth woven with yarn. After curing molding, the texture of the release cloth is printed on the surface of the product to form a uniform rough surface.
[0050] Preferably, the sanded sandpaper is selected from 40-400 mesh, the cleaning of the bonding surface uses one of ethanol, acetone or ethyl acetate, and the release cloth material is selected from one of nylon, polyester and polytetrafluoroethylene. The gram weight of the release cloth is preferably 80-200g / m 2 .
[0051] The blanks are bonded by adhesive. The adhesive can be one of epoxy adhesive, polyurethane adhesive, vinyl adhesive, acrylate adhesive and polyimide adhesive. Depending on the situation, for example, design requirements, the amount of adhesive, etc., different adhesives can be used for each layer. According to the viscosity of the adhesive, the adhesive can be applied by scraping, brushing or spraying. According to the production efficiency requirement, the adhesive can be applied manually or by automatic adhesive equipment. After bonding, the semi-finished product is placed in a curing oven or drying room for curing. The curing time, temperature and pressure are determined according to the curing characteristics of the adhesive used.
[0052] Preferably, the epoxy resin is E-51 epoxy resin or E-44 epoxy resin or a mixed resin of the two.
[0053] As an example, the proportion of E-51 in the epoxy resin is 0%-100%, the curing agent is a combination of two types of amino curing agents, amine-terminated polyether and m-xylylenediamine, the toughening agent is an epoxy-terminated polyurethane ether, and the coupling agent is one or more of silane coupling agents KH-550, KH-560 and KH-570.
[0054] As an example, the adhesive composition contains 100 parts of epoxy resin, 10-30 parts of epoxy-terminated polyurethane ether, 20-50 parts of amine-terminated polyether, 5-20 parts of m-xylylenediamine and 0.5-5 parts of silane coupling agent.
