Description

The composite plastic capable of circulation that is used for roof of the vehicle
The field of the invention relates to composite plastic and relative manufacturing process thereof.
Plastics as a kind of multipurpose and easily material be used for multiple product, and in very big range of application, replace materials such as metal or timber.The convenience of plastics can present complicated shape because of its ductility, and possesses durability than employed material of past.In addition, the numerous plastics of existing classification have different character, as fusing point, hardness, density etc., can find a kind of suitable plastic for the application of broad range thus.
Also commendable is, and but multiple plastics are arranged is recycling (this is applied to so-called thermoplastic, compares with thermosetting plastics, and it can be melted once more).Under the situation that environmental problem becomes more and more important for user and important legislation theme, this is useful especially.But present many countries all encourage the product in industrial use or manufacturing recycling.
Yet existing plastics can not always reappear the character of other material.The imagination example is the bonnet of automobile; require firm (if bumping), flexible (in collision, protecting the pedestrian) with passenger in the protection car; low thermal coefficient of expansion (will consider cover cap by engine heating be to be under the sun only, it is very important that this position does not change shape and size) also will be arranged.And then also have manufacturing advantage-this position must coat with lacquer and be coated with, and with rational cost manufacturing.Obtain required form and required design details aspect, for example be used for the embedding position of motor corporation's badge, preferably light-dutyer (it is more cheap or performance is better that light-dutyer automobile is compared operation with the heavy automobile of same model) and easy molding.
In the past, steel, aluminium or thermosetting plastics have been used to make automobile engine cover, ceiling and other similar portions.Yet the instrument preparation cost of this method makes steel and aluminium undesirable, also is not suitable for small quantities of production operation.Thermosetting plastics normally can not recycling.
The fibre strengthening plate is used to provide the plastic material that has improved mechanical performance to be known by the public.The manufacturing of this material is that document is known, for example US5194462 has described a kind of method of making matt glass heat plastic material, wherein the fiber of Qiang Huaing is arranged with the continuous gradient layer structure, this wherein the density of fiber from the high-density layer to the low-density layer, change continuously.This technology is commonly referred to " pellicular cascade " (film stack) technology.Other the method for making random (random) fibre substrate in thermoplastic comprises that " ICI heat pipe technology ", " Flexline ", " Bay Mills/Spiflex ", " Radlite " and powder inject.
According to a first aspect of the invention, provide a kind of method of producing panel, described panel has discontinuous this feature of surface curvature at least from the teeth outwards, and this method comprises the steps:
Provide the first polymeric thermoplastic plastics long and/or parallel fibers reinforcement continuously as first strengthening layer;
The thermoplastic that second polymer is provided is as sandwich layer, and this second polymer and first polymer are compatible;
Provide the first polymeric thermoplastic plastics long or parallel fibers reinforcement continuously as second strengthening layer;
Folded layer by layer strengthening layer is separated by sandwich layer each;
With this lamination lead-in surface board mold and heat this mould to the fusing point of predetermined at least polymer to solidify each layer and to form panel.
Those skilled in the art can be understood that, the parallel fibers on the aspect can be facing one direction or more than a direction, for example in the braided fiber strengthening material.In addition, be understandable that top used " compatible " refers to each plastic layer congruent melting.Compatible polymer has identical polymer substrate probably.Be understandable that for thermosetting plastics sandwich and strengthening layer can not melt in the same manner, so thermoset plastic material is unsuitable for this method.
In addition, the discontinuity of surface curvature can, for example comprise round shape at the edge of panel, maybe can comprise a depression.In one embodiment, panel is the panel of vehicle body, and depression can comprise badge or a special design feature, for example fin, ventilating opening, burr, ripple or the like that a recess is used for motor corporation.
With two layers of reinforced material is useful with hardness and the intensity that increases panel separately, makes that panel can instead of steel backplate (latter is very expensive) and thermosetting plastics panel (latter be can not recycling).This material also demonstrates flexibility, and can improve pedestrian's safety.Reinforcing fiber can suppress the thermal expansion of panel, so it can be used for being in the part under the high thermic load, for example is subjected to roof of the vehicle or bonnet that solar heat shines.In addition, thus the step of heating mould can make easily japanning of smooth surface.Core provides one deck to be rich in polymeric layer, the permeable strengthening layer of the polymer of this layer and especially be seeped into the sharp-pointed angle of mould, thus fill up the space of staying between strengthening layer and these angles.It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the panel of formation can follow the shape of mould better.In addition, heating mould makes and can adopt lower pressure in moulding technology, this means and can implement accurate " in the mould " (in-mould) technology, for example lays circuit board.
The claimed method of the application is combined first strengthening layer, sandwich layer and second strengthening layer as can be seen; wherein first strengthening layer is the first polymeric thermoplastic plastics of length or continuous parallel fibers reinforcement, and second strengthening layer is the long or continuous parallel fiber strengthened first polymeric thermoplastic plastics.Each layer all can be by commercially available product composition, but the composite construction of this method manufacturing has described advantageous property herein, and this is that any initiation material institute is inaccessiable.

Figure 3 shows that process chart according to one embodiment of the invention;
Present embodiment relates to the car panel that the premium-type paint cover is provided.Fig. 1 a is depicted as each layer of the laminate blank 100 (" blank " refers to treat the object of molding) of the composition diagram 1b according to the present invention.Lamination comprises outermost layer 102a, the 102b of two-layer continuous fiber one-way reinforced polypropylene, the example of " thermoplasticity prepreg " known in the art (thermoplastic prepreg), and wherein fiber is orientated along first direction.For what those skilled in the art were familiar be, " length " fiber is often referred to the fiber that length surpasses about 1cm in this article, is different from " weak point " fiber of the about 0.4cm of length, is suitable for strengthening the plastics for the treatment of injection moulding like this.In the present embodiment, at least 4 to 10 centimetres fiber is that suitable (this promptly is known as continuous fiber) and these fibers are probably parallel with the surface of aspect 102a, 102b.
Aspect 102a, 104a, 106,104b, 102b can be provided on the roller usually, and take out in the described processing step 300 of Fig. 3 flow chart and cutting is the size of blank 100.Form lamination at step 302 middle level 102a, 104a, 106,104b, 102b then and form blank 100.
In each outermost fibre reinforced layer 102a, 102b the inside is internal layer 104a, the 104b of continuous fiber one-way reinforced polypropylene, and wherein fiber is orientated along second direction, and is general vertical with first direction.
Between internal layer 104a, 104b, be matrix or comprise the sandwich layer 106 of " natural " polypropylene (being that propylene is not strengthened with fiber).This provides polymer rich core.
The shop layer (lay-up) of blank 100 is symmetrical, and the both sides of core have the layer of similar number and each layer combination formation mirror image to make from the aspect order identical (the aspect back that promptly have first direction fiber be aspect with second direction fiber) of core to both sides.
Next step is an as-molded panel.What it will be understood to those of skill in the art that is that multiple mode as-molded panel is arranged, and wherein vacuum solidification and punching press will mainly be discussed together with some prior aries below.
Blank 100 is placed into mould 200a, 200b, 200c makes that " drape molding " is (drape) to fill mould 200a, 200b, 200c fully.In the method for prior art, blank 100 is heating earlier before placing mould 200a, and each layer combination and blank 100 are ductile and therefore can present the shape of mould 200a like this.Yet material can have cooling slightly when transferring to mould 200a.Material can not abideed by the shape of mould fully, and can form pitted surface.Thereby this can form the surface that is difficult to japanning and cause aesthetic not good result.
Another problem is that fiber-reinforced material trends towards at the nook of mould gapped (holdoff).Such example is as shown in Fig. 2 a.Material can just not accepted the shape of mould 200a at an easy rate, thereby stays space 202,204 between drape molding material and mould 200a.The wedge angle that this means mould 200a can not be duplicated in as-molded panel.Fig. 2 a has also illustrated angle sharp-pointed more (being that radius of curvature is more little), just can see many more spaces 202,204.
According to one embodiment of the invention, next step of technology be step 304 be whether need to consider prefabricated.Usually when blank 100 desired shapes are complexity or spiral, the prefabricated needs.Prefabricatedly comprise step (being usually less than the fusing point of material) (step 306) (step 306) of heating blank 100, place mould 200a (step 308), 200b, 200c and punched blank 100 to being full of mould (step 310) blank 100.Such punching press can be finished by handheld tool.
Optionally, when not required prefabricated, blank is approximately placing mould (step 312) under the environment temperature.
According to this embodiment of the invention, although the aspect tiling forms blank 100, each layer be not in conjunction with or not " curings " arrive together, under about environment temperature, blank 100 places heated mold 200b, 200c, shown in Fig. 2 b, wherein outermost layer 102a as shown in the figure, but other each layer diagram not for the sake of clarity.Suitable mould 200b, 200c be by French BP341 Savoie Technolac, Roctool, 73377 Le Bourget You Lac produce.
At first consider the situation of vacuum solidification.The heating, vacuum mould 200b of Fig. 2 b comprises that conduit 206 is used for introducing heating or cooling liquid.In an alternate embodiment, mould can heat by electromagnetic induction method.
In the situation of using vacuum solidification, only the surface of mould 200b is heated.What those skilled in the art were familiar with is to be pressed into mould 200b by the vacuum that is applied to vacuum bag and to form panel.
In vacuum solidification, in case being capped, blank 100 places mould 100b, with regard to the sealed vacuum bag, form vacuum, and heat on the surface to mould 200b in step 314.Material softening also is melted in the surface of mould 200b.Mould 200b is heated to above the fusing point of material 100.In the present embodiment, polyacrylic fusing point is 170 ℃, and mould 200b is heated to 180 ℃, yet in other embodiments, can improve 30 ℃ to accelerate fusion process.
In case compound reaches 180 ℃ and sensible core, layer 102a, 104a, 106,104b, 102a just solidify fully.In the present embodiment, instrument is heated about 10 minutes to reach temperature required.Compound (step 316) carries out several minutes (being generally 5 minutes) in mould 200b temperature subsequently " resident " (dwell), the temperature maintenance of mould 200b is at 180 ℃, cool off about 10 minutes (step 318) again, in step 320, remove then, for comprising filling and about altogether 30 minutes complete cycle time of complete cycle of removing.
With respect to vacuum solidification faster alternative be impact moulding, but it will be appreciated by persons skilled in the art that the preparation cost of instrument is very high owing to need invest the instrument of " coupling ".The embodiment of diel 200c is by shown in Fig. 2 c.
Diel 200c comprises female part 200ci and male part 200cii, and both are incorporated into one and are used from punch components.In the described here embodiment, female part 200ci and male part 200cii are combined with cooling bath 206i, 206ii to be used for introducing heating or cooling fluid at the near surface that contacts with parts to be processed.
In impact moulding, in case blank 100 is loaded among the mould 200c, the latter is sometimes referred to as " instrument " (tool) in this article, heating and close die 200c in step 314.Sliding frame is used to control in the section bar (profile) that continuous fiber " slips into " (slip into) mould 200b.It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that sliding frame comprises is roughly rectangular framework, and the predetermined tension that provides by spring makes rectangle material pressurized, clamping.Setting tension force makes material to slip into mould 200c by framework under predetermined tension.Can use suitable sliding frame such as Elkington Brothers of Birmingham, what UK produced.In case blank places mould 200c, mould 200c closure, heating makes material surpass its fusing point (step 306) to mould 200c, as the associated description of top vacuum solidification.Blank 100 is stopping to mould 200c heating (step 316) is preceding " resident " time, cooling die 200c then being arranged.Parts cool off (step 318) subsequently to the temperature (step 320) that can shift out safely from mould 200c.The whole circulation process can be in 2 minutes.
In punching press and vacuum solidification, the heating on surface is meaned that polymer is tending towards melting and flows in any space between the fiber of mould 200b, 200c and outermost layer 102a, 102b.
Two kinds of technologies all carry out moving with the 104a that guarantees at outermost layer 102a, b and internal layer, the fiber that b has only minimum under about 1bar " low pressure ".In an alternate embodiment, pressure is about 1 to 10bar to be suitable.
Panel takes out from mould and also carries out edging as required.In polyacrylic present embodiment, if japanning need carry out some preliminary treatment.Panel surface carries out flame treatment or plasma gun processing (step 322) and test to guarantee that surface tension surpasses 40 dyne/cm, and this is that high-quality is covered with paint, lacquer, colour wash, etc. needed paint adherence.Other polymer may not need such processing or need other processing.
Although very clearly still have thermal expansion by comprising the thermal expansion that fibre strengthening has reduced panel on the thickness of described panel, it is caused by variation of ambient temperature and not limited by fiber.Thermal expansion takes place really, does not have its degree of same polymer of reinforcement much lower but compare to.Unless the employing precautionary measures, otherwise this expansion is enough to make so-called fiber strengthened " vestige " (witness) to be presented at the surface.When panel expands and lacquer painting moves with it, will see " vestige ", but lacquer painting is caught a cold and can be got back to its origin-location.This effect meeting stays " vestige " of fiber in the lacquer decorations.It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the lacquer decorations that are used for automobile can accept the climate change test of standard before being used for automobile, this test can illustrate this effect.
Yet, in the present embodiment, also prime treatment is used for panel (step 324), form the low changeability epidermis that can not move along with the shape of panel.According to one embodiment of the invention priming paint comprise the sclerosis varnish (.
The panel that was coated with priming paint is before the lacquer of enameling dry (step 326).In case drying just is coated with the finish paint of layer of transparent light more.
Be understandable that and especially be applied to the panel of big plane of structure such as bonnet, ceiling and Sorte Nula by the embodiments described herein these are subjected to the goods of sun high heat load.
In an alternate embodiment, also regard as in the scope of the present invention, can have only three layers, skin comprise braided fiber, two-way fiber or " quasi-isotropic " (fiber orientation for vertically, intersect and along diagonal) fibre strengthening, foregoing sandwich layer is arranged.Alternatively, sandwich layer can not comprise natural polypropylene, but substitutes or regrown material with " random fiber " reinforced polypropylene, and (for example, automobile component that pulverizes such as bumper) has impurity as the paint speckle.In fact, composite bed can comprise non-polyacrylic thermoplastic, the selection that but it will be understood to those of skill in the art that polymer will be influential to technology, because the disposed of in its entirety temperature can be different, certain methods step (the especially processing of counter plate before japanning) will be not necessarily.
In addition, before japanning molded parts being carried out preliminary treatment may be not necessarily to some polymer.
This method can comprise extra " in the mould " technology, as applying decoration film, facing structure or circuit.
It can be the characteristic that the present invention chooses wantonly that panel has the discontinuous feature of surface curvature.
