Description

Rectangular wire and method for manufacturing the same 【0001】 This invention relates to a rectangular wire and a method for manufacturing the same. This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2024-214603, filed in Japan on December 9, 2024, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. 【0002】 Vehicle equipment used in automobiles, railways, aircraft, etc., is expected to be smaller and lighter. Therefore, the insulating coatings on the insulated wires of electrical equipment used in the above-mentioned vehicle equipment need to be thinner. Furthermore, with the increasing power output and voltage of electrical equipment, the insulating coatings need to have not only excellent insulating properties but also strong adhesion to conductors. 【0003】 By using flat rectangular conductors for electric wires, the space utilization ratio when coiled is higher compared to round wires. As a result, the overall space required for the coil can be reduced, contributing to the miniaturization of electrical equipment. However, with flat rectangular conductors, it is more difficult to form a uniform insulating coating compared to round wires, which can lead to problems in maintaining sufficient insulation. 【0004】 Patent Document 1 discloses an insulated wire comprising a conductor heated using a halogen heater and a fluororesin layer formed on the conductor and containing a melt-workable fluororesin, wherein the peel strength measured by peeling the fluororesin layer from the conductor is 0.30 N / mm or more, and the content of other components in the fluororesin layer relative to the mass of the fluororesin in the fluororesin layer is less than 30% by mass. It is also stated that the adhesion between the conductor and the fluororesin layer covering the conductor has been improved in the insulated wire. 【0005】 Patent No. 7510096 【0006】 However, even in the insulated wire described in Patent Document 1, the adhesion between the conductor and the fluororesin layer covering the conductor is not sufficient. The object of the present invention is to provide a flat wire with high adhesion between the flat copper conductor and the insulating coating, and a method for manufacturing the same. 【0007】The present invention has the following aspects: [1] A rectangular wire comprising a rectangular copper conductor having a rectangular cross-section in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction, and a coating of insulating material that directly covers the entire circumferential direction of the rectangular copper conductor, wherein the cross-sectional area of ​​the rectangular copper conductor is 2.0 mm². 2 [1] A flat wire having the above characteristics, wherein the average thickness of the film of the insulating coating material is 30 to 500 μm, the insulating coating material contains a fluorine-containing polymer, and the interfacial strength between the flat copper conductor and the film of the insulating coating material is higher than the material fracture strength of the insulating coating material. [2] The flat wire according to [1], wherein the oxygen atom content on the surface of the flat copper conductor is 1.0% by mass or more. [3] The flat wire according to [1] or [2], wherein the material fracture strength of the insulating coating material is 0.30 to 3.40 kgf. [4] The flat wire according to any one of [1] to [3], wherein the fluorine-containing polymer is a fluorine-containing resin with a melting point of 160°C or higher. [5] The flat wire according to [4], wherein the fluorine-containing resin has units based on tetrafluoroethylene. [6] The flat wire according to any one of [1] to [3], wherein the fluorine-containing polymer is a fluorine-containing elastomer. [7] The flat wire according to [6], wherein the fluorine-containing elastomer has units based on tetrafluoroethylene. [8] The flat wire according to any one of [1] to [7], wherein the film of the insulating coating material is a film of insulating coating material formed by extrusion molding. [9] The flat wire according to any one of [1] to [8], wherein the insulating coating material further comprises a non-fluorine thermoplastic resin.

[10] The flat wire according to [9], wherein the non-fluorine thermoplastic resin comprises one or more selected from the group consisting of polyarylether ketone and polyphenylene sulfide. 【0008】

[11] A method for manufacturing a rectangular wire according to any one of [1] to

[10] , comprising: melting a composition containing the fluorine-containing polymer using an extruder equipped with a die; and extruding the molten composition from the die around the rectangular copper conductor to coat the rectangular copper conductor with the molten composition and form the insulating coating material, wherein the drawdown ratio DDR calculated by the following formula 1 is less than 15. DDR = (D A -C A ) / (F A -C A) In Formula 1, D A is the opening area of the die (mm 2 ), C A is the cross-sectional area (mm 2 ) of the cross-section perpendicular to the axial direction of the flat copper conductor, and F A is the cross-sectional area (mm 2 ) of the cross-section perpendicular to the axial direction of the flat wire.

[12] The method for manufacturing a flat wire according to

[11] , wherein the flat copper conductor is a flat copper conductor preheated at 160° C. or higher in an oxygen-containing gas atmosphere.

[13] The method for manufacturing a flat wire according to claim 12, wherein the preheating means of the flat copper conductor is a method of generating a magnetic field and heating by the internal resistance of the metal.

[14] The flat wire according to any one of [1] to

[10] , wherein the tensile breaking strength of the insulating coating material is 33 to 47 MPa and the material breaking strength of the insulating coating material is 1.00 to 1.45 kgf. 【0009】 According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a flat wire having high adhesion between a flat copper conductor and a film of an insulating coating material, and a method for manufacturing the same. 【0010】The surface element content of the rectangular copper conductor can be measured by scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX). The melt flow rate is the melt mass flow rate specified in JIS K 7210-1:2014 (corresponding international standard ISO 1133-1:2011). Hereinafter, the melt flow rate will also be referred to as MFR. The melt viscosity can be determined by the method described in the examples. The average thickness of the insulating coating is obtained by taking a 5m length of rectangular wire, measuring the thickness of the insulating coating on the long side of a rectangular cross-section perpendicular to the axial direction every 100mm, and taking the arithmetic mean. The unbiased standard deviation of the thickness of the insulating coating in the axial direction of the rectangular wire is obtained by taking a 5m length of rectangular wire, measuring the thickness of the insulating coating on the long side of a rectangular cross-section perpendicular to the axial direction every 100mm, and taking the measured values. The iodine atom content in the fluorine-containing elastomer (A2) can be determined by ion chromatography. The melting point can be determined as the temperature corresponding to the maximum value of the melting peak measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The storage modulus G' of the fluorine-containing elastomer (A2) is the value measured under conditions of 100°C and 50 cpm in accordance with ASTM D6204. The Mooney viscosity (ML) of the fluorine-containing elastomer (A2) 1+10 The value (at 121°C) is measured at 121°C in accordance with JIS K6300-1:2000 (corresponding international standards ISO 289-1:2005, ISO 289-2:1994). The tensile breaking strength of the insulating coating material can be measured in accordance with ASTM D 638. The unit of tensile breaking strength is MPa or kgf / mm 2 Therefore, 1 MPa is equal to 0.101972 kgf / mm². 2 The material fracture strength of the insulating coating is obtained by multiplying the tensile fracture strength of the insulating coating by the width of the rectangular copper conductor and the average thickness of the coating. The unit of material fracture strength is kgf. 【0011】A polymer unit refers to a part (polymerization unit) derived from a monomer, formed by the polymerization of monomers. The unit may be a unit directly formed by a polymerization reaction, or it may be a unit in which a part of the polymer is converted to a different structure by processing the polymer. In this specification, a monomer-based unit is also called a monomer unit. 【0012】 ≪Flat Rectangular Wire≫ The flat rectangular wire of this embodiment comprises a flat rectangular copper conductor having a rectangular cross-section in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction, and a coating of insulating material that directly covers the entire circumferential direction of the flat rectangular copper conductor. The cross-sectional area of ​​the flat rectangular copper conductor is 2.0 mm². 2 The above is the result. The average thickness of the insulating coating is 30 to 500 μm. The insulating coating contains a fluorine-containing polymer. The interfacial strength between the flat copper conductor and the insulating coating is higher than the material fracture strength of the insulating coating. The fact that the interfacial strength between the flat copper conductor and the insulating coating is higher than the material fracture strength of the insulating coating can be confirmed by the measurement method of the example described below. Specifically, the insulating coating is cut circumferentially with a cutter, the cut surface is grasped, 1 mm of the coating is peeled off with tweezers in a 180° direction to form the gripping portion, and then the coating is pulled to peel the insulating coating from the flat copper conductor. In this case, if the insulating coating breaks at a peeling distance of less than 2 cm, it is determined that the interfacial strength > material fracture strength. On the other hand, if it does not break, it is determined that the interfacial strength ≤ material fracture strength. If the interfacial strength between the rectangular copper conductor and the insulating coating is higher than the material fracture strength of the insulating coating, the adhesion between the rectangular copper conductor and the insulating coating will improve. 【0013】 <Flat Rectangular Copper Conductor> A flat rectangular copper conductor is the core wire of a flat wire, and is a conductor with a rectangular cross-section perpendicular to the axial direction. The material of the flat rectangular copper conductor is copper. The thickness of the flat rectangular copper conductor is, for example, 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm. The width of the flat rectangular copper conductor is, for example, 1.0 mm to 5.0 mm. The thickness of the flat rectangular copper conductor is the shorter side of the rectangular cross-section perpendicular to the axial direction. The width of the flat rectangular copper conductor is the longer side of the rectangular cross-section perpendicular to the axial direction. 【0014】 The cross-sectional area of ​​the flat copper conductor is 2.0 mm². 2 That's all, 3.0 mm 2 The above is more preferable, 3.3 mm 2The above is even more preferable. There is no particular upper limit to the cross-sectional area of ​​the rectangular copper conductor, but for example, 15 mm 2 The cross-sectional area of ​​the rectangular copper conductor is 2.0 to 15 mm². 2 Preferably, 3.0 to 15 mm 2 More preferably, 3.3 to 15 mm 2 This is even more preferable. The cross-sectional area of ​​the rectangular copper conductor is the area of ​​the cross-section in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction. If the conformability of the insulating coating to the rectangular copper conductor during bending deformation is low, the larger the cross-sectional area of ​​the rectangular copper conductor, the more likely it is that wrinkles will form in the insulating coating or the insulating coating will peel off from the rectangular copper conductor during bending deformation of the rectangular wire. Since the rectangular wire of this embodiment has excellent conformability of the insulating coating to the rectangular copper conductor during bending deformation, the larger the cross-sectional area of ​​the rectangular copper conductor, the more useful it is. 【0015】 The oxygen atom content on the surface of the rectangular copper conductor is preferably 1.0% by mass or more, more preferably 1.4% by mass or more, and even more preferably 1.8% by mass or more. The oxygen atom content on the surface of the rectangular copper conductor is preferably 20% by mass or less, more preferably 5% by mass or less, and even more preferably 2.5% by mass or less. When the oxygen atom content on the surface of the rectangular copper conductor is above the lower limit, the adhesion of the coating to the conductor is excellent. When the oxygen atom content on the surface of the rectangular copper conductor is below the upper limit, the strength of the rectangular copper conductor is excellent. 【0016】 <Insulating Coating> The average thickness of the insulating coating is 30 to 500 μm, preferably 50 to 300 μm, and more preferably 70 to 200 μm. If the average thickness of the coating is above the lower limit, tracking resistance is excellent. If the average thickness of the coating is below the upper limit, the overall thickness of the flat wire can be reduced, which allows for space saving of the entire coil when it is made into a coil, contributing to the miniaturization of electrical equipment. 【0017】The unbiased standard deviation of the thickness of the insulating coating film in the axial direction of the rectangular wire (hereinafter also simply referred to as "thickness variation") is preferably less than 0.06 mm, more preferably 0.03 mm or less, and even more preferably 0.01 mm or less. When the thickness variation of the film is less than (or less than) the above upper limit, the crack resistance and tracking resistance during bending deformation are excellent. The smaller the thickness variation of the film, the better, and it may even be 0. From the viewpoint of ease of manufacture and yield, the thickness variation of the film is preferably 0.001 mm or more. The above lower limit and upper limit can be combined as appropriate. Examples of combinations include, when the thickness variation of the film is not 0, 0.001 mm or more and less than 0.06 mm, 0.001 to 0.03 mm, and 0.001 to 0.01 mm. To make the thickness variation less than 0.06 mm, it is preferable to form the insulating coating film by extrusion molding that directly covers the entire circumferential direction of the rectangular copper conductor. Other methods, such as powder coating, are undesirable because they tend to result in large variations in thickness. In particular, when forming an insulating coating with a fluororesin by powder coating, the variation tends to be larger due to the difficulty in adjusting the viscosity during melting, compared to non-fluororesins such as acrylic resin, epoxy resin, epoxy-acrylic resin, polyurethane resin, polyester resin, polyimide resin, polyamide-imide resin, and polyester-imide resin. 【0018】 The tensile breaking strength of the insulating coating material is preferably 8 to 95 MPa, more preferably 15 to 93 MPa, even more preferably 25 to 90 MPa, and particularly preferably 36 to 85 MPa. In one embodiment of this invention, the tensile breaking strength of the insulating coating material is preferably 33 to 47 MPa. If the tensile breaking strength of the insulating coating material is above the lower limit, the coating adheres well to the conductor during bending. If the tensile breaking strength of the insulating coating material is below the upper limit, the coating has excellent crack resistance during bending. 【0019】The material fracture strength of the insulating coating is preferably 0.30 to 3.40 kgf, more preferably 0.50 to 3.30 kgf, and even more preferably 0.80 to 3.20 kgf. In one embodiment of this product, the material fracture strength of the insulating coating is preferably 1.00 to 1.45 kgf. If the material fracture strength of the insulating coating is above the lower limit, the coating will have excellent adhesion to the conductor during bending. If the material fracture strength of the insulating coating is below the upper limit, the coating will have excellent crack resistance during bending. 【0020】 The MFR of the insulating coating material at a temperature of 372°C and a load of 49N is 10.0 to 300.0 g / 10 min, preferably 20.0 to 250.0 g / 10 min, and more preferably 30.0 to 200.0 g / 10 min. It is preferable to measure the MFR of the insulating coating material after preheating it to the measurement temperature (372°C) for 5 minutes. If the MFR is 100.0 g / 10 min or higher, it is preferable to shorten the preheating time. In this case, the preheating time is preferably 30 to 180 seconds. 【0021】 If the MFR of the insulating coating material at a temperature of 372°C and a load of 49N is above the lower limit, the surface smoothness of the coating and the ability of the coating to follow the flat copper conductor during bending deformation will be improved. If the MFR of the insulating coating material at a temperature of 372°C and a load of 49N is below the upper limit, the strength of the coating of the insulating coating material will be improved. 【0022】 The insulating coating material contains a fluorine-containing polymer (A). The insulating coating material may further contain other components besides the fluorine-containing polymer (A), as long as these do not significantly impair its properties. Examples of other components include a non-fluorine thermoplastic resin (B). 【0023】 <Fluorine-containing polymer (A)> The fluorine-containing polymer (A) may be a homopolymer or a copolymer. Examples of fluorine-containing polymer (A) include fluorine-containing resin (A1) and fluorine-containing elastomer (A2). Fluorine-containing elastomer (A2) is a fluorine-containing elastic polymer with no melting point, exhibiting a storage modulus G' of 80 kPa or more at 100°C and 50 cpm, and is distinguished from fluorine-containing resin (A1). 【0024】[Fluorine-containing resin (A1)] The melting point of fluoro-containing resin (A1) is preferably 160°C or higher, more preferably 200°C or higher, and even more preferably 230°C or higher. If the melting point is above the lower limit, the strength of the resulting insulating coating material is excellent. The melting point of fluoro-containing resin (A1) is preferably 350°C or lower, more preferably 340°C or lower, and even more preferably 330°C or lower. If the melting point is below the upper limit, the elongation of the resulting insulating coating material is excellent. The lower limit and upper limit can be combined as appropriate. Examples of combinations include 160-350°C, 200-340°C, and 230-330°C. 【0025】 The melt viscosity of the fluororesin (A1) is 390°C and 122 sec. -1 In the measurement conditions, 100 to 1400 Pa·s is preferred, 300 to 1300 Pa·s is more preferred, and 500 to 1200 Pa·s is even more preferred. The MFR of the fluororesin (A1) at a temperature of 372°C and a load of 49 N is preferably 10.0 to 300.0 g / 10 min, more preferably 12.0 to 200.0 g / 10 min, even more preferably 15.0 to 150.0 g / 10 min, and particularly preferably 18 to 80 g / 10 min. When the melt viscosity and MFR of the fluororesin (A1) are within the above ranges, it becomes easier to adjust the MFR of the insulating coating material to the above ranges. 【0026】 The fluororesin (A1) preferably has units based on tetrafluoroethylene (hereinafter also referred to as "TFE"). It is even more preferable that the fluororesin (A1) has TFE units and other units other than TFE units. 【0027】 Other units include u1, which is based on monomers containing fluorine other than TFE units; u2, which is based on monomers containing functional groups (excluding monomers containing fluorine); and u3, which is based on monomers without fluorine (excluding monomers containing functional groups). 【0028】As monomers having fluorine unit u1, fluorine-containing compounds having one polymerizable carbon-carbon double bond are preferred. For example, fluoroolefins (e.g., vinyl fluoride, vinylidene fluoride, trifluoroethylene, hexafluoropropylene (hereinafter also referred to as "HFP"), chlorotrifluoroethylene, hexafluoroisobutylene, etc., excluding TFE), perfluoro(alkyl vinyl ether) (hereinafter also referred to as "PAVE"), CF 2 = CFOR f2 SO 2 X 1 (However, R f2 X is a perfluoroalkylene group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, which may contain oxygen atoms between carbon atoms, 1 (This is a halogen atom or a hydroxyl group.) CF 2 = CFOR f3 CO 2 X 2 (However, R f3 X is a perfluoroalkylene group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, which may contain oxygen atoms between carbon atoms, 2 (These are hydrogen atoms or alkyl groups having 1 to 3 carbon atoms.) CF 2 = CF (CF 2 ) p OCF = CF 2 Examples include (where p is 1 or 2), fluoroalkylethylenes (hereinafter also referred to as "FAE"), and fluorine-containing monomers having a ring structure (for example, perfluoro(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxol), 2,2,4-trifluoro-5-trifluoromethoxy-1,3-dioxol, perfluoro(2-methylene-4-methyl-1,3-dioxolane), etc.). One type of fluorine-containing monomer may be used alone, or two or more types may be used in combination. 【0029】 As the monomer having unit u1 of fluorine, at least one selected from the group consisting of HFP, PAVE, and FAE is preferred from the viewpoint of excellent moldability of the composition containing the fluororesin (A1), PAVE and FAE are more preferred, and FAE is particularly preferred from the viewpoint of excellent electrical properties (dielectric constant, dielectric loss tangent) and heat resistance. 【0030】For example, PAVE is CF 2 = CFOR f1 (However, R f1 A perfluoroalkyl group has 1 to 10 carbon atoms and may contain oxygen atoms between carbon atoms. Specific examples of PAVE include CF 2 = CFOCF 2 CF 3 CF 2 = CFOCF 2 CF 2 CF 3 (Hereafter also referred to as "PPVE"), CF 2 = CFOCF 2 CF 2 CF 2 CF 3 CF 2 = CFO (CF 2 ) 6 F is one example. PPVE is preferred as the PAVE. 【0031】 For example, CH 2 = CX 3 (CF 2 ) q X 4 (However, X 3 is a hydrogen atom or a fluorine atom, q is an integer between 2 and 10, and X 4 (These are hydrogen atoms or fluorine atoms.) Specific examples of FAE include CH 2 = CF (CF 2 ) 2 F, CH 2 = CF (CF 2 ) 3 F, CH 2 = CF (CF 2 ) 4 F, CH 2 = CF (CF 2 ) 5 F, CH 2 = CF (CF 2 ) 6 F, CH 2 = CF (CF 2 ) 2 H, CH 2 = CF (CF 2 ) 3 H, CH 2=CF(CF 2 ) 4 H, CH 2 =CF(CF 2 ) 5 H, CH 2 =CF(CF 2 ) 6 H, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 2 F, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 3 F, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 4 F, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 5 F, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 6 F, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 2 H, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 3 H, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 4 H, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 5 H, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 6 H is included. As the FAE, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) q1 X 4 (where q1 is 2 to 6, preferably 2 to 4.) is preferred, and CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 2 F, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 3 F, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 4 F, CH 2 =CF(CF 2 ) 3 H, CH 2 =CF(CF 2 ) 4H is more preferred, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 4 F, CH 2 =CH(CF 2 ) 2 F is particularly preferable. 【0032】 Examples of monomers having a functional group of unit u2 include monomers having a carboxyl group (e.g., maleic acid, itaconic acid, citraconic acid, undecylenic acid, etc.); monomers having an acid anhydride group (e.g., itaconic anhydride (hereinafter also referred to as "IAH"), citraconic anhydride (hereinafter also referred to as "CAH"), 5-norbornene-2,3-dicarboxylic acid anhydride (hereinafter also referred to as "NAH"), maleic anhydride, etc.); monomers having a hydroxyl group and an epoxy group (e.g., hydroxybutyl vinyl ether, glycidyl vinyl ether, etc.). Monomers having a functional group may be used individually or in combination of two or more. An acid anhydride group refers to a group represented as -C(=O)-O-C(=O)-. 【0033】 As the monomer having the functional group of unit u2, a monomer having an acid anhydride group is preferred, and one or more selected from the group consisting of IAH, CAH, and NAH is preferred, IAH and NAH are more preferred, and NAH is even more preferred. By using one or more selected from the group consisting of IAH, CAH, and NAH, a fluororesin (A1) having an acid anhydride group can be easily produced without using the special polymerization method required when maleic anhydride is used (see Japanese Patent Publication No. 11-193312). 【0034】 Preferred monomers that do not contain fluorine in unit u3 are fluorine-free compounds having one polymerizable carbon-carbon double bond, such as olefins (e.g., ethylene (hereinafter also referred to as "E"), propylene, 1-butene, etc.) and vinyl esters (e.g., vinyl acetate, etc.). One type of fluorine-free monomer may be used alone, or two or more types may be used in combination. 【0035】The fluororesin (A1) preferably has at least one functional group selected from the group consisting of carbonyl group-containing groups, hydroxyl groups, epoxy groups, and isocyanate groups. The presence of a functional group in the fluororesin (A1) makes it easier to disperse in the non-fluorothermoplastic resin (B) when the insulating coating material contains a non-fluoroplastic resin (B). Furthermore, the functional group bonds with atoms (especially oxygen atoms) on the surface of the flat copper conductor, improving the adhesion of the insulating coating material to the flat copper conductor. The functional group is preferably present in either the terminal groups of the main chain or the pendant groups of the main chain of the fluororesin (A1), or both. The main chain refers to the main carbon chain of a chain-like compound, meaning the trunk portion with the largest number of carbon atoms. 【0036】 As for functional groups, when the insulating coating material contains a non-fluorine thermoplastic resin (B), carbonyl group-containing groups are preferred from the viewpoint of dispersibility in the non-fluorine thermoplastic resin (B). A carbonyl group-containing group is a group having a carbonyl group -C(=O)- in its structure. Examples of carbonyl group-containing groups include groups having a carbonyl group between the carbon atoms of a hydrocarbon group, carbonate groups, carboxyl groups, haloformyl groups, alkoxycarbonyl groups, and acid anhydride groups. Examples of hydrocarbon groups in groups having a carbonyl group between the carbon atoms of a hydrocarbon group include alkylene groups having 2 to 8 carbon atoms. The number of carbon atoms in the alkylene group is the number of carbon atoms excluding those constituting the carbonyl group. The alkylene group may be linear or branched. A haloformyl group is represented as -C(=O)-X (where X is a halogen atom). Examples of halogen atoms in a haloformyl group include fluorine atoms and chlorine atoms, with fluorine atoms being preferred. In other words, a fluoroformyl group (also called a carbonyl fluoride group) is preferred as the haloformyl group. As for the alkoxy group in the alkoxycarbonyl group, an alkoxy group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms is preferred, and a methoxy group or an ethoxy group is particularly preferred. The alkoxy group may be linear or branched. 【0037】Examples of functional group-containing fluororesins (A1) include the following, depending on the manufacturing method: Fluorine-containing resin (A1-1): A fluororesin having a functional group derived from at least one selected from the group consisting of monomers, chain transfer agents, and polymerization initiators used in the production of the fluororesin. Fluorine-containing resin (A1-2): A fluororesin in which a functional group is introduced into a fluororesin without a functional group by surface treatment such as corona discharge treatment or plasma treatment. Fluorine-containing resin (A1-3): A fluororesin in which a monomer having a functional group is graft polymerized into a fluororesin without a functional group. Among these, fluororesin (A1-1) is preferred as the functional group-containing fluororesin. 【0038】 If the functional groups in the fluororesin (A1-1) originate from the monomer used in the production of the fluororesin (A1-1), then the monomer may be one having the above-mentioned u2 functional group. 【0039】 If the functional groups in the fluororesin (A1-1) originate from the chain transfer agent used in the production of the fluororesin (A1-1), then a chain transfer agent having functional groups such as acetic acid, acetic anhydride, methyl acetate, ethylene glycol, or propylene glycol may be used. In this case, the functional groups exist as terminal groups in the main chain of the fluororesin (A1-1). 【0040】 If the functional groups in the fluororesin (A1-1) originate from the polymerization initiator used in the production of the fluororesin (A1-1), then a polymerization initiator having functional groups such as di-n-propyl peroxydicarbonate, diisopropyl peroxycarbonate, tert-butylperoxyisopropyl carbonate, bis(4-tert-butylcyclohexyl)peroxydicarbonate, or di-2-ethylhexyl peroxydicarbonate may be used as the polymerization initiator.

[0048] of International Publication No. 2019-198771. 【0114】<Method for Manufacturing Flat Rectangular Wire> The above-described flat rectangular wire can be manufactured by using an extruder equipped with a die to melt a composition containing a fluorine-containing polymer (A), and then extruding the molten composition from the die around a flat rectangular copper conductor, thereby coating the flat rectangular copper conductor with the molten composition and forming the insulating coating material. In addition to the fluorine-containing polymer (A), the above composition may also contain a non-fluorine thermoplastic resin (B). Furthermore, in addition to the fluorine-containing copolymer (A) and the non-fluorine thermoplastic resin (B), the above-described other components may be added to the extruder. 【0115】 (Composition) The composition comprises a fluorine-containing polymer (A). The composition may further comprise a non-fluorine thermoplastic resin (B). The composition may further comprise other components besides the fluorine-containing polymer (A) and the non-fluorine thermoplastic resin (B), as long as these do not significantly impair its properties. 【0116】 The total content of the fluorine-containing polymer (A) and the non-fluorine thermoplastic resin (B) relative to the total mass of the composition is preferably 50% by mass or more, more preferably 70% by mass or more, and may also be 100% by mass. 【0117】 The composition does not have to contain a non-fluorinated thermoplastic resin (B).

The amount of fluorinated elastomer (A2) is preferably 60% by mass or less, and more preferably 50% by mass or less, relative to the total mass of the fluorinated copolymer (A). If the composition contains a non-fluorinated thermoplastic resin (B), the content of the fluorinated polymer (A) relative to the total mass of the fluorinated polymer (A) and non-fluorinated thermoplastic resin (B) in the composition is preferably 1% by mass or more, more preferably 1 to 99% by mass, and even more preferably 10 to 40% by mass. That is, if the composition contains a non-fluorinated thermoplastic resin (B), the content of the non-fluorinated thermoplastic resin (B) relative to the total mass of the fluorinated polymer (A) and non-fluorinated thermoplastic resin (B) in the composition is preferably 99% by mass or less, more preferably 1 to 99% by mass, and even more preferably 60 to 90% by mass. 【0118】At a temperature of 372°C and a load of 49N, the MFR of the composition is preferably 5.0 to 300.0 g / 10 min, more preferably 15.0 to 250.0 g / 10 min, and even more preferably 40.0 to 200.0 g / 10 min. 【0119】 (Manufacturing Conditions) Examples of extruders include twin-screw extruders and single-screw extruders, with twin-screw extruders being preferred. The die opening is rectangular in shape. The cylinder temperature and die temperature of the extruder are set according to the type of fluorine-containing polymer (A) and non-fluorine thermoplastic resin (B). The cylinder temperature of the extruder is preferably 50 to 450°C, more preferably 80 to 440°C, and even more preferably 90 to 430°C. The die temperature is preferably 100 to 420°C, more preferably 120 to 400°C, and even more preferably 150 to 380°C.

The residence time in the extruder is preferably 10 seconds to 30 minutes. The screw rotation speed of the extruder is preferably 0.5 to 100 rpm. 【0120】 It is preferable to preheat the rectangular copper conductor in an oxygen-containing gas atmosphere.

The preheating temperature is preferably 160°C or higher, more preferably 200°C or higher, even more preferably 230°C or higher, and still more preferably 250°C or higher. The upper limit of the preheating temperature is, for example, preferably 600°C or lower, more preferably 500°C or lower, and still more preferably 400°C or lower. If the preheating temperature is above the lower limit, the oxygen atom content on the surface of the rectangular copper conductor tends to increase. If the preheating temperature is below the upper limit, the strength of the rectangular copper conductor is excellent. 【0121】 The preheating time can be adjusted as appropriate depending on the preheating temperature and preheating means, but for example, 1 to 600 seconds is preferred, 2 to 300 seconds is more preferred, and 3 to 100 seconds is even more preferred. 【0122】As a preheating method, it is preferable to use a method that can preheat not only the surface of the flat copper conductor but also the interior. Examples of such preheating methods include optical heating, hot air heating, radiant heating, gas burner heating, induction heating, and dielectric heating. In particular, a preheating method that generates a magnetic field and heats by the internal resistance of the metal is preferred, and among such preheating methods, induction heating is particularly preferred. For example, if a halogen heater capable of heating only the surface of the flat copper conductor is selected as the preheating method, the oxygen atom content on the surface of the flat copper conductor does not increase easily, even if the preheating temperature is increased, as shown in the embodiments described later. 【0123】 (Drawdown Ratio) In the method for manufacturing rectangular wires of this embodiment, the drawdown ratio (hereinafter also referred to as "DDR") calculated by the following formula 1 is preferably less than 15, more preferably 0.5 or more and less than 10.0, even more preferably 0.5 to 5, and particularly preferably 0.8 to 1.5. When the DDR is above the lower limit, it is easier to obtain rectangular wires with excellent surface smoothness of the insulating coating film. When the DDR is below (or less than) the upper limit, the adhesion between the rectangular copper conductor and the insulating coating film is easily improved. 【0124】 DDR = (D A -C A ) / (F A -C A ) Equation 1 In the above Equation 1, D A The die opening area (mm²) 2 ) and C A This is the area of ​​the cross-section of the flat copper conductor in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction (mm²). 2 ) and F A This is the area of ​​the cross-section (mm²) perpendicular to the axis of the rectangular wire. 2 ) 【0125】 D A This can be calculated from equation 2 below. D A = D L ×D S Equation 2 In the above Equation 2, D L D is the inner dimension (mm) of the long side of the rectangular opening surface of the die. S This is the inner dimension (mm) of the shorter side of the rectangular opening surface of the die. 【0126】 C AThis can be calculated from equation 3 below. C A = C L ×C S Equation 3 In the above Equation 3, C L C is the length (mm) of the rectangular cross-section of the flat copper conductor in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction, S This is the length (mm) of the shorter side of the rectangular cross-section of the flat copper conductor, perpendicular to the axial direction. 【0127】 F A F can be found from equation 4 below. A = F L ×F S Equation 4 In the above Equation 4, F L F is the length (mm) of the long side of the rectangular cross-section perpendicular to the axis direction of the rectangular line. S This is the length (mm) of the shorter side of the rectangular cross-section perpendicular to the axis of the rectangular wire. 【0128】 In this embodiment, it is preferable to employ a so-called pressure molding method, in which the insulating coating material is formed under pressure. By employing a pressure molding method, the DDR tends to be less than (or less than) the above upper limit compared to the conventional tube molding method, and as a result, it becomes easier to obtain a flat wire with excellent surface smoothness of the insulating coating film and excellent conformability of the insulating coating film to the flat copper conductor during bending deformation. 【0129】 (Applications) The flat wire of the present invention can be suitably used in, for example, isolation amplifiers, isolation transformers, automobile alternators, hybrid vehicles, electric ships, electric aircraft, electric motors for electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft, etc. It can also be used as various types of electric wires (wrapping wires, automotive wires, robotic wires) and as coil windings (magnet wires). 【0130】 The present invention will be described in more detail below using examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. In the following examples, Examples 1 to 11 are examples, and Examples 12 to 16 are comparative examples. 【0131】<Evaluation Method> (Oxygen Atom Content on the Surface of Flat Copper Conductors) The oxygen atom content on the surface of flat copper conductors was measured by SEM-EDX under the following conditions. A SEM-EDX (JEOL Ltd., JSM-IT700HR) was used as the measuring instrument. [Measurement Conditions] Acceleration voltage: 15kV Live time: 30s Vacuum level: Under vacuum (High Vacuum mode) Magnification: 100x 【0132】 (MFR of insulating coating material) After preheating the insulating coating material at 372°C for 5 minutes, the MFR at 49N was measured according to JIS K 7210-1:2014. The measurement was performed at 372°C. If the MFR exceeds 100g / 10min, the preheating time may be set to 30 seconds to 180 seconds. 【0133】 (MFR of fluororesin (A1) and non-fluorothermoplastic resin (B)) The MFR at 49N was measured according to JIS K 7210-1:2014. The measurement was performed at 372°C. 【0134】 (MFR of fluorine-containing elastomer (A2)) The MFR at 21N was measured according to JIS K 7210-1:2014. The measurement was performed at 230°C. 【0135】 (Melting viscosity of fluorine-containing copolymer (A) and non-fluorine thermoplastic resin (B)) The melting viscosity was measured using a capillograph (manufactured by Toyo Seiki Co., Ltd., capillary length L: 10 mm, capillary inner diameter r: 1.0 mm, piston diameter D: 9.55 mm). For fluorine-containing resin (A1) and non-fluorine thermoplastic resin (B), the temperature was 390°C and the shear rate was 122 sec. -1 Measurements were taken at the following conditions: For fluorine-containing elastomer (A2), temperature: 300°C, shear rate: 122 sec. -1 The measurement was performed using [this method]. 【0136】 (Melting points of fluororesin (A1) and non-fluorothermoplastic resin (B)) Using a differential scanning calorimeter (manufactured by Seiko Instruments), the melting peaks of fluororesin (A1) and non-fluorothermoplastic resin (B) were recorded when the temperature was increased at a rate of 10°C / min, and the temperature corresponding to the maximum value was defined as the melting point. 【0137】(Mooney viscosity (ML) of fluorine-containing elastomer (A2) 1+10 The temperature was measured at 121°C using an SMV-201 (manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation) in accordance with JIS K 6300-1:2000 (corresponding international standards ISO 289-1:2005, ISO 289-2:1994). 【0138】 (Storage modulus G' of fluorine-containing elastomer (A2)) The storage modulus was measured using an RPA2000 (Alpha Technologies) in accordance with ASTM D6204 under conditions of 100°C and 50 cpm. 【0139】 (Tensile Breaking Strength of Insulating Coatings) The tensile breaking strength of the insulating coatings was measured in accordance with ASTM D 638. For the measurement samples, Type V dumbbell-shaped test specimens obtained by melt-molding the compositions used in the manufacture of each example of insulating coating were used. Note that in Table 1, MPa and kgf / mm² are used. 2 Display in both units. 【0140】 (Material fracture strength of insulating coating material) The tensile fracture strength (kgf / mm) of the insulating coating material obtained above 2 The material fracture strength of the insulating coating was obtained by multiplying the width of the flat copper conductor and the average thickness of the coating of the insulating coating material by the value of ). 【0141】 (Average coating thickness) A 5m length of rectangular wire was taken, and the thickness of the insulating coating on the long side of the rectangular cross-section perpendicular to the axial direction was measured every 100mm (only on the side that contacts the upper inner surface of the die during molding). The arithmetic mean of the measured values ​​(mm) was taken as the average thickness. 【0142】(Comparison of Material Breaking Strength and Interfacial Strength) The comparison of the "material breaking strength" of the insulating coating on a rectangular wire and the "interfacial strength" between the rectangular copper conductor and the insulating coating was carried out as follows. A 3 cm section of rectangular wire was taken, and the insulating coating was cut circumferentially in the axial center using a cutter. The cut surface was grasped, and 1 mm of the coating was peeled off with tweezers in a 180° direction to form the gripping portion. Then, both ends of the rectangular wire were fixed to a jig, and the wire was pulled at a tensile speed of 100 mm / min at room temperature (approximately 25°C) using a Tensilon universal material testing machine RTF-1350 to attempt to peel the insulating coating from the rectangular copper conductor. In this case, if the insulating coating broke at a peeling distance of less than 2 cm (i.e., the length of the rectangular copper conductor exposed after the insulating coating was peeled off from the start of pulling was less than 2 cm), it was determined that the interfacial strength > material breaking strength. Note that "fracture" refers to the rupture of the insulating coating material when pulled in a 180° direction. In Table 1, ○ indicates that the interfacial strength > material fracture strength, and × indicates that the interfacial strength ≤ material fracture strength. 【0143】 (Adhesion of Flat Copper Conductors) Adhesion was tested in accordance with "5.5 Adhesion Test" of JIS 3216-3:2011, specifically "5.5.1 Enameled Flat Wire".

Then, the rectangular wire was embedded in epoxy resin, and the cross-section was exposed by polishing. Finally, the presence or absence of a gap between the rectangular copper conductor and the coating was confirmed by SEM-EDX observation. 5 μm 2 If the above-mentioned space is present, it is determined that there is an air gap. When an air gap is present, the adhesion of the coating to the flat copper conductor during bending is poor. 【0145】 <Materials used> 【0146】[Fluorine-containing copolymer (A)] The following materials were used as fluorine-containing copolymer (A).

DDR was set to 1. In the wire extruding, the so-called pressure molding method was employed, in which the insulating coating material is formed under pressure. [Preheating Conditions for Flat Copper Conductors] Flat copper conductor: Thickness 1.5 mm x Width 3.0 mm (Cross-sectional area 4.5 mm) 2 ) Flat rectangular copper wire. Preheating method for flat rectangular copper conductor: induction heating oven. Preheating temperature of flat rectangular copper conductor: 310°C. Preheating time of flat rectangular copper conductor: 10 seconds. Temperature of flat rectangular copper conductor 15 cm before the die: 250°C. [Wire extrusion conditions] Die temperature: 400°C. Cylinder temperature: 320-380°C. The preheating conditions and wire extrusion conditions for flat rectangular copper conductors in Examples 2-16 are shown in Table 1 below. 【0149】 (Examples 2-16) Flat rectangular wires were manufactured in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the compositions with the formulations listed in Table 1 were used, and the preheating and wire extrusion conditions were also listed in Table 1. The cross-sectional area of ​​the flat rectangular copper conductor was calculated as thickness × width, as in Example 1. As shown in Table 1, halogen heaters were used as the preheating means in Examples 13 and 15. In Example 14, a so-called tube molding method was adopted, in which the insulating coating material was formed substantially under normal pressure. 【0150】 The flat copper conductors, insulating coatings, and flat wires in each example were evaluated as described above. The results are shown in Table 1. 【0151】 【0152】Examples 1-11 showed interfacial strength > material fracture strength, indicating excellent adhesion between the rectangular copper conductor and the insulating coating. This high adhesion was thought to be due to the high oxygen atom concentration on the surface of the rectangular copper conductor. Example 12 showed interfacial strength ≤ material fracture strength, indicating poor adhesion to the insulating coating. This was thought to be due to a low preheating temperature of the rectangular copper conductor and a low oxygen atom concentration on the surface of the rectangular copper conductor. Examples 13 and 15 also showed interfacial strength ≤ material fracture strength, indicating poor adhesion to the insulating coating. Although the preheating temperature of the rectangular copper conductor was high, heating with a halogen heater did not conduct heat to the rectangular copper conductor, and this was thought to be due to a low oxygen atom concentration on the surface of the rectangular copper conductor. Example 14 also showed interfacial strength ≤ material fracture strength, indicating poor adhesion to the insulating coating. Although the oxygen atom concentration on the surface of the rectangular copper conductor was high, this was thought to be due to the manufacturing process using DDR 15. In Example 16, the interfacial strength was less than or equal to the material fracture strength, indicating poor adhesion to the insulating coating. Although the oxygen atom concentration on the surface of the rectangular copper conductor was high, this was thought to be due to the fact that the insulating coating did not contain a fluorine-containing polymer (A).
