Fig. 1 has shown a kind of such duplexer, and it has the outer sheet material 1 of acrylic material or P.E.T.G., and the internal layer 2 of resin.The thickness of the duplexer when finishing can be according to the thickness that inserts the resin between the described thermal plasticity slice, and the quantity of employed thermoplastic sheets and resin and thickness and change.Fig. 2 has shown so a kind of multi-layer laminate.
We have carried out some trials, use various forms of plastic sheets and protective cover that duplexer is provided.Be for the substitute as glass although develop the present invention at first, be used for building and building industry, in light weight owing to laminate panel of the present invention, intensity is high and can be shaped, so the present invention has various application.For example, described panel can be shaped or process to build hull, vehicle structure (comprising monocoque assembly and outer panels), furniture, household electrical appliance and many kinds and make commodity.Therefore should be seen as building and manufacturing material.
An embodiment the simplest of laminate material of the present invention is the individual layer thermosetting polyester resin (as shown in Figure 1) that is clipped between two layers of thermoplastic acrylic material or the P.E.T.G..
A kind of method of preferred manufacturing duplexer sheet material is continuous manufacture, and this method is put two sheet materials together, injects unsaturated polyester resin under the required correct temperature and humidity condition of the solidification process of unsaturated polyester resin.Described resin is bonding with outer sheet material.A kind of other manufacture method is batch process, and this method comprises two outer sheet materials are assembled in anchor clamps or the of equal value utensil in the mode that be arranged in parallel, then resin is poured into or is injected between the described sheet material.
Another kind method is that described resin is made sheet-form or the conitnuous forms with desired thickness.Described continuous resin can be rolled then, preserve at cylinder, can be used at any time introducing in the manufacturing process.After ready, can heat two outer thermoplastic sheets, be pressed on any side of the resin (it can heat) that solidifies, form the solid lamination.Therefore must be to bonding control the between described resin and the sheet material.
Another aspect of the present invention relates to and a kind of duplexer being formed or the method for moulding, and the ability of duplexer to be formed.In case made duplexer, just be heated to subsequently and can form or the temperature of moulding it, then described duplexer is shaped or is formed into required curvature and configuration.The present invention includes with single and complicated curvature duplexer is formed.Fig. 3 a, b and c have shown the example of possible warp architecture.
A) thermoplastic sheets
The preferred outer sheet material of described duplexer can be acrylic compounds or P.E.T.G. sheet material.
Acrylic compounds is represented the material be made up of molding and hot formed various transparent thermoplastic resin, and described resin is made by acrylic material and derivative thereof, and is made by natural material source (for example oil and natural gas).P.E.T.G. represent glycol-modified terephthalate ethylene glycol (glycol-modified terephthalate glycol).
When a kind of preferred thermosetting resin comprised styrene, above-mentioned all materials preferably itself all had cinnamic chemical resistance.The sheet material of anti-styrene deficiency (being dissolved in styrene or cracked sheet material when namely contacting with styrene probably) obtains the adherence of difference, the destruction that also can cause sheet surface easily owing to corrosion reaction takes place will carrying out bonding contact-making surface.
A kind of alternative method for anti-styrene condition be at sheet material with before resin contacts, apply anti-styrene coating at sheet material.This is a kind of protective finish as the barrier layer between described sheet material and the resin, and this is that those skilled in the art can expect.
Compare with P.E.T.G, the acrylics sheet of standard is a kind of more cost-efficient material, and it has good optical character, and scratch resistance is relatively poor.In addition, the crosslinking degree of acrylic material structure is more little, more is applicable to duplexer of the present invention because as mentioned below, free methyl methacrylate site can with resin crosslinks.But all material of use all comprises within the scope of the present invention.Described duplexer can comprise two-layer (or more multi-layered) acrylic material; Perhaps two-layer (or more multi-layered) P.E.T.G.
B) resin material
Those skilled in the art can understand, and have many thermosetting resins two thermoplastic sheets can be bonded together.But, be applicable to that the resin of duplexer of the present invention must have following characteristic
-unsaturated polyester resin
-extension at break characteristic is enough to allow described duplexer hot forming.Preferred elongation surpasses 150; More preferably elongation approximates or greater than 170%.
-lower glass transition temperatures, it is lower than environment temperature.
-preferably use styrene as monomer.Preferred styrene-content is 40-45%.Most of mylar is by the viscosity of the solution composition of polyester in monomer, the liquid of light color.The styrene addition is up to 50% viscosity that can reduce resin, will help to make that resin is easy to handle.Described styrene also can play an important role, and namely can get up by the strand " crosslinked " with polyester, makes resin become solid-state from liquid curing, can not produce any accessory substance simultaneously.For this duplexer invention, we think that styrene also has makes the thermoplastic layer of outer sheet material soften, thereby helps the effect of described adhesion process.For the acrylic compounds sheet material, styrene can also be crosslinked with undersaturated methyl methacrylate site.
-for the application in molding, add some supplementary prods and will be of value to mylar.Specifically, need catalyst among the present invention.Catalyst uses soon and not long ago added in the resin system, with initiated polymerization.Catalyst can not participate in chemical reaction, and only makes this process activate.Also can use promoter to accelerate described solidification process.
When adding catalyst, in the presence of cinnamic, in polymerization process, styrene can make that polymer chain is crosslinked, forms complicated tridimensional network.Here it is solidification process.
Before carrying out molding, carry out resin compound preparation time, need in addition careful.Must carry out meticulous stirring to resin and any additives, make to add before the catalyst that all components are disperseed equably.This stirring must be abundant, because any air in the introducing resin compound all can influence the quality of final moulded work.When carrying out with layers of reinforcement stacked the time, fully stir with regard to particular importance, because otherwise can form bubble in the duplexer that makes, this can make the intensity of structure reduce.Another very important aspect is amount adding promoter (if you are using) and the catalyst with careful measurement, with the control polymerisation, obtains best material character.If catalyst amount is too much, can cause gelling too rapid, I haven't seen you for ages causes curing not enough and catalyst amount is crossed.
A kind of cinnamic alternative monomer is methyl methacrylate.This is also included within the scope of the present invention.
Preferred resin
A kind of preferred resin that we use is the NC007 resin.This is a kind of flexible, low viscosity, transparent unsaturated polyester resin in styrene monomer.It preferably promotes (prepromoted) (namely be pre-mixed, prepare burden in batches) in advance before adding catalyst.Our recommendation should use the MEKP catalyst of the medium activity of 0.75-2% to carry out gelling and curing.MEKP (methyl-ethyl-ketone peroxide, a kind of radical initiator) is the catalyst that adds mylar and vinyl ester resin.Because catalyst and mixed with resin, chemical reaction (as indicated above) takes place, produce heat, make resin solidification (sclerosis).
NC007 typical liquid character:
Viscosity at 25 ℃ 1.5ps
Gelling time under 25 ℃, 1%MEKP 45 minutes
Volatile content 36%
Outward appearance Transparent baby pink
The NC007 representative physical properties:
Extension at break % 170%
Hot strength 3.2mPa
Performance and the feature of this resin in the hot forming process is very important for the success of duplexer.
The percentage elongation % ability of our preferred resin approximates or is higher than 150%.The extension at break of this specific resin is about 170%.It must work at 105-120 ℃.Under these temperature, we observe malleability and increase, make molecular energy stretch, fixing, can keep its elongation and bonding with sheet surface after the cooling.This can be referring to Fig. 4 and Fig. 5.Fig. 4 shows the laminate construction before being shaped, and it comprises resin 41 and thermoplastic layer 42.
(a) in heating process, along with the duplexer product malleability that becomes is higher, molecular resin begins to change shape and expansion.When beginning heating process before shaping and the forming process, along with the duplexer bending forming, the molecular structure of the internal resin in the duplexer changes shape, becomes more elongated form from circular and honeycombed, along the surperficial elongation of duplexer.
(b) when the temperature of all layers reaches required 105-120 ℃ forming temperature, begin to form.The time that temperature begins to produce required infiltration will be depended on the thickness of the lamination of shaping.Resin 41 when Fig. 5 has shown heating and thermoplastic layer 42 structural change.
Described product can carry out stacked, experiences the hot forming process then, and this process comprises final products are heated, crooked or be configured as shape arbitrarily, the cooling back keeps its shape, can not cause delamination and loss of tensile strength simultaneously, and this is a surprising result.Environment and factor in order to ensure the necessary control of forming process success make the duplexer product just in time change molecular structure in the correct time, realize forming successfully and don't infrastructure product together.
The catalyst that is used for resin solidification
As mentioned above, need to use catalyst to make resin solidification.It is as the initator that makes resin solidification.Being suitable for general catalyst type of the present invention is radical initiator, preferred MEKP (methyl-ethyl-ketone peroxide catalyst).A kind of catalyst that we have successfully used is catalyst (MEKP40%) QC of our numbering F00826.This is a kind of MEKP catalyst that comprises following composition:
Repefral/DPG passivator (phlegmatiser) 30-70%
Methyl-ethyl-ketone peroxide 30%
Methyl ethyl ketone 0-10%
2,4-pentanedione peroxide 0-10%
Its SADT (SADT) is about 60 ℃.
Gelling and hardening time; Step
Gelling time represents that catalyst and resin have changed the moment of half-hard state at least or stable state into from unsettled liquid state.If the bonding early part of curing or (with outer sheet material) is interfered, then may cause final delamination.Yet, in the process in gelling stage, for some time, at this moment can handle, cut and store sheet material before solidifying fully, be used for complete hardening time.It is important sheet material not to be lifted, crooked or make its pressurized, but make sheet material along the smooth bed surface of ventilation or smooth banded loading bay/conveyer slides and mobile.
The hardening time-expression catalyst and resin solidify fully, has been bonded in the moment on the sheet surface fully.
The time of solidifying fully and solidifying will be depended on the manufacturing process of employing.By making the amount maximum of catalyst and/or promoter, and the NC007 system is heated, will significantly accelerate hardening time.But no matter use which kind of method, the period of storage before recommending to use is 12 hours.
C) preparation of duplexer
As indicated above, the method for three kinds of main manufacturing duplexers of the present invention or similar duplexer is arranged.A kind of batch process (for example using anchor clamps that sheet material is held in place), a kind of continuity method, in production line, resin is poured into or added between the sheet material, perhaps use three solid sheet materials (two thermoplastic and resin), in heating, they are placed in contact.Shown batch process among the embodiment.Usually in batch process, use the blade of mechanical assistance with the catalyst mix of a certain amount of resin and respective amount.It was stirred 2 minutes, it was left standstill 2 minutes, perhaps vibrate, to remove excessive air bubble.Then this formulation is directly poured in the cavity sample that remains in the support, used the funnel that thin brass screen is arranged further to help to mix, help further to remove the air bubble that is mingled with.
A kind of continuity method of form is shown in Figure 12.This comprises premixed resin is applied two outer thermoplastic sheets.Its version comprises (still runny) resin that use simply is pre-mixed; (glue) resin that partly solidifies and the resin that solidifies fully heat it then, make it softening, apply then.The resin 121 that partly solidifies and the crust 122 of rolling have been shown among the figure.Described duplexer continues to arrive portable crawler belt pressure plare 124 by pressure roller 123.Outward flange dam rubber or crawler belt rotation outward flange seal is (is used for prevent liquefy in the manufacture process resin overflow) chosen wantonly.
Should be noted that the thermoplastic sheets that manufacturer provides often has protection plastic sheet or protection sheet.These protection plastic sheets or protection sheets can be on a face or two faces.They should be removed before the preparation duplexer.
D) bonding between acrylic material/P.E.T.G and the resin.
As mentioned before, bonding between the resin is the important feature of the present invention.In preferred embodiment, described resin comprises the styrene-content of 30-45%.This styrene plays an important role in preferred bonding formation.Do not wish to be subject to following theory, we think that the styrene that exists can make resin can carry out certain infiltration so that outer thermoplastic layer's surface is softening.In addition, we think that it can be crosslinked with outer thermoplastic layer, produce bonding.For example, for the outer sheet material of acrylic compounds, the styrene monomer of described resin can be crosslinked with the methyl methacrylate site of any remnants of acrylic material.
(e) bending/shaping of duplexer
Hot forming or the method for forming are a kind of preferred manufacturing process.It comprises by required heat being concentrated on specific zone rather than the system with whole sheet material is carried out baking oven heating, and makes smooth duplexer sheet material be configured as required shape.Therefore, the specific region of described sheet material can bend at a certain temperature/be shaped, and under this temperature, described acrylic material or P.E.T.G can soften, described unsaturated polyester resin changes consistent, makes panel or sheet material can be configured as required shape.
In general, in the art, form by the bar shaped shaping.This comprises that facing sheet material from one heats, and relies on radiant heating source, makes described heating source by whole sheet material before bending.
For the non-laminated sheet of the standard of routine, described one-sided heating is effectively and acceptable.But, for the not preferred this method of our duplexer (but still can adopt under certain conditions).
The temperature and time that need to see through our laminated sheet sample is very crucial, because if temperature is too high, overlong time, the annealing process that occurs may take place not wish.With the side generation annealing effect that is heated that required time of our laminated sheet of rod/see through when heating from a side and temperature may cause sheet material that is shaped of single fire-bar, cause that outer sheet material cracks, chip or fracture, make and in forming process, cause delamination by the sandwich layer cracking.We adopt simultaneously the thermal source that heats from top and bottom, make it possible to deeper penetrate the core of lamination.For specific stepped construction, can need certain temperature and time to obtain suitable malleability, prevent that the sheet surface from annealing and delamination and defective taking place.Therefore it is important not surpass correct forming temperature and the time.
F) Ren Xuan feature
I) antiscratch coatings (Marcoating)
Can use optional antiscratch coatings to improve wearability or chemical resistance.Although the duplexer of dual coating (namely applying in the outside of duplexer) can provide maximum protection, for the application of a side of a contact sheet, the duplexer of one-sided coating can provide advantage economically.
Ii) UV protection
We can comprise in described thermosetting resin that the UV inhibitor is to improve the anti-UV of duplexer.Described anti-UV performance enough improves described duplexer as the performance (object in the protection building) of construction material, but also can prolong the life-span of duplexer self.
Iii) color/painted/transparent
Can be by using colored or painted thermoplastic sheets, for duplexer provides colour/painted incrustation.Can make opaque and translucent duplexer by suitably selecting sheet material.Perhaps can use transparent thermoplastic sheets, we can carry out painted or dyeing to thermosetting resin, and this is well known by persons skilled in the art.Can carry out painted to resin compound with pigment.Even the addition of pigment only is about 3 weight % of weight resin, also must carry out careful consideration to the selection of suitable paint material, because pigment is easy to influence curing reaction, use inappropriate pigment can make the quality of final duplexer descend.
Iv) fire retardant
As shown in Figure 6, fire proofing can be added in the thermosetting resin 60, described thermosetting resin 60 is clipped between the outer thermoplastic sheets 42.But the possibility of result of doing like this can cause transparency to descend.
V) filler
For comprising following a variety of causes, we can also use packing material in resin:
-in order to reduce the cost of moulding article
-in order to promote moulding technology
-in order to make moulding article have specific character
The addition of filler is up to 50% of weight resin usually, but such addition can influence flexural strength and the hot strength of duplexer.Use filler can be of value to the stacked or casting of thick parts, otherwise significant heat release heating may take place.Add some filler and also help to improve the anti-flammability of duplexer.
Vi) other possibility
For the requirement in the building industry and needs attractive in appearance, can be with other vinyl-based, metal decking, for example aluminium sheet and flame-retardant materials combination and be pressed on the skin of described resin sheet.We can also be arranged on converter (transfer), goods and object (for example solar energy acquisition panel (solar pick up panel)) within the resin formulation within the cavity, make solar energy window plate (solar glazing panel).
(g) advantage of duplexer of the present invention
With the glassy phase ratio, a preferred embodiment of duplexer sheet material of the present invention provides following one or more advantages:
Improved optical clarity
Be easy to make
Wearability
In light weight, weight only is half of glass
Chemical resistance
Intensity, with the glassy phase ratio, impact strength improves
Improved sound insulation
Machinability-can be expertly with sawing cut, brill and matching plane
Hear resistance
The hot forming ability
H) blue effect/muddiness (Blue effect/Hazing)
Sometimes the product duplexer may have muddiness or blue stripe (lining).This is a kind of owing in following three kinds of reasons often:
1) because the refraction effect that the fibre optics effect of sheet material and formulation causes for example when the edge of described sheet material is subjected to illumination, can absorb light, make light propagate (seeing Figure 11) along the length of sheet material.When solidifying, if there is significant distortion in sheet surface outside, perhaps the complications of light propagation path then can cause internal reflection, cause the outward appearance of smoke-like azury.
2) incorrect catalyst mixture may cause the internal cavity formulation to present muddiness, rather than has the anaclasis character identical with the acrylic compounds sheet material, and this also can cause internal reflection.
3) also may make that the internal cavity sheet surface is polluted slightly owing to there is the not anti-styrene of certain percentage.
Blue muddy remedial measure:
Can the outward flange of sheet material be sealed, with propagation against sunshine;
Guarantee the smooth surface that anchor clamps or other permanent plant result are formed for solidifying;
Guarantee to use correct catalyst mix percentage
Guarantee correct sheet material/styrene percentage
Use the translucent tone of certain limit.
Test
Embodiment 1-preferred prescription
(Mitsubish Rayon, that Japan) produces is called as Shinkolite to use Mitsubishi artificial silk company TM300 millimeters * 300 millimeters succeeding vat die casting mould the sample of acrylic material.They are in position in case distortion is set in 30 degree angles and pours in anchor clamps, make any air bubble to rise.Can apply vibration to accelerate the release of any air.
Resin and mixture of catalysts are as follows:
Figure GDA00002789940700231
In the solidification process that carries out in heating cabinet, described sample potting compound can keep vertical in anchor clamps.Perhaps can stop up and enter hole (being used for filling the hole that enters of material), sample keeps flat then, is used for solidifying at heating cabinet.
In general, sample should be placed earlier at least 8 hours, handled then.In order to accelerate this process, can adopt the back to solidify.
Back curing can be that certain hour prepares catalyst in resin before perfusion, and gelling time is suitable when make introducing cavity, and can not cause on the platform gelling time in the sheet material long, thereby delays speed of production.Ideally, when this process continuously when mobile sheet material carries out, described sheet material should can cut into certain-length and storage at any time in the gelling stage about 5 meters after.The catalyst of sheet material and resin is more many more many with heating in filling process, and also will significantly accelerate hardening time.We can also add gelling promoter.
Cleaning and the preparation of embodiment 2-sheet material cavity side
Because some manufacturers can apply the pollution that may bring with the various adhesives of protecting outer packing plastic to use, may must carry out this step operation.In simple terms, remove adhesive glue with suitable cleaning agent.We had used methylated spirit (industrial alcohol and family expenses alcohol), but found that isopropyl alcohol is most preferred.Preferred cleaning agent will depend on the different housing materials that different manufacturers use.
Perhaps, we use does not have protective finish or the sheet material of only single face use or acrylic compounds sheet material or the P.E.T.G. sheet material of roll form.Described protective finish will be stayed the outside (being that the side that sheet material contacts with resin does not have protective finish) of duplexer sheet material.
Embodiment 3 – pour into condition
A kind of resin that is preferred for the duplexer manufacturing is our NC007 resin.This is a kind of styrene unsaturated polyester resin of dissolving.
Following table B has shown that we pour into the perfusion Study on Conditions of this resin to P.E.T.G. and acrylic compounds sheet material.
Figure GDA00002789940700251
Size: 300 millimeters * 300 millimeters * 2 millimeters thick
The temperature of specimen sheet material, mixing and time
(all samples all clean with methylated spirit)
Fig. 9 a has shown the end-view of perfusion equipment.Outward flange sealing/dam rubber is to be made by the wide 25 millimeters closed pore pvc foam seal band 91 with single adhesive surface.After having prepared 300 millimeters * 300 millimeters sample sheets (acrylic material or PETG make) 92 and cleaning, described band is launched, cut into certain length, remove boundary belt from a side, expose adhesive.Then band 91 is centered on the outer edge setting of described sheet material 92 with binder side form down.The junction of band 93 on the angle need seal with the polyester compatibility sealant of Soudal High Tak sealant or equivalence.Then Soudal High Tak sealant is put on the exposed end face of described pvc band, for top-sheet provides adhesive seal.
It is very important escaping for potting resin and air in gap 94 between two drift angles.Described dam rubber must can be compatible with the resin formulation, otherwise resin can infiltrate in the dam seal, makes resin leave described sheet material along outward flange, causes delamination, as shown in figure 10.Figure 10 has shown because resin immerses in the rubber dam seal 99, has caused delamination and the air gap 98.
When mixing, need carefully, mixing machinery device speed can not be too fast, otherwise can make that inflation too much if this thing happens, then needs to spend a period of time to make bubble transfer to the surface, just otherwise need curing mechanism is vibrated in the formulation.
When pouring into, a spot of air may enter in the formulation, when bubble rises to the surface, sometimes outer peripheral bubble may be attached to the lateral edge of rubber, this can't throw into question, because the edge can be cut away after solidifying, the bubble in the sheet material can not cause delamination or pollution, but damages attractive in appearance.
Referring to Fig. 8 a, b and c (sectional view, side view and perspective view) have made chuck apparatus 80 and have been used for all samples.This makes sheet material 81 to fix abreast, and resin pours into from the top.
Described anchor clamps are made with the acrylic resin sheet material 81 of 15 millimeters thick, and are with 10 millimeters ribs, 82 horizontal supports, in position with nut 83.The outward flange that it is important anchor clamps can not tension, otherwise will show the outward appearance of concave surface on the final product, causes sample to have visible distortion.
Embodiment 4-annealing
Discuss as preamble, the anti-styrene of outer thermoplastic sheets is an important feature of the present invention.We preferably invent and use the sheet material with intrinsic anti-styrene.But, can also before being combined into duplexer, anneal to sheet material, make it have anti-styrene.
Following Table A relates to the annealing of the sample sheets of the acrylic compounds sheet material that is derived from various plastic sheet manufacturer and PETG sheet material, sample sheets be of a size of thick 3 millimeters * long 150 millimeters * wide 75 millimeters, with the isopropyl alcohol cleaning, place on the smooth non-sticky surface of cold baking oven then.Some samples are placed between the sheet material, in case bubble or distortion.They are heated to described condition, it was cooled off in 1 hour time.
And then sample cleaned, dam rubber being put on outer edge seal, (under specific humidity and temperature conditions) perfusion resin formulation NC007 places the environment of predefined control temperature and humidity then, makes completion of cure.
Table A
Figure GDA00002789940700271
Preferred sheet material is the Shinkolite available from Mitsubishi artificial silk company.
Generally, the cracking situation of sample obtains significantly to improve.The result of annealing research shows can make it have anti-styrene.But it is low to do efficient like this, and this method cost height.Although be within the scope of the invention therefore, annealing is not preferred step or feature.
The shaping of embodiment 5 – duplexers/folding
We have tested a large amount of different combinations, measure their hot forming ability.The internal cavity barrier layer that a kind of preferred duplexer is outer by two opposed 2 millimeters acrylic compounds sheet material and 2 millimeters resin formulations form is formed, and their formation is 6 millimeters sandwich material altogether, and perhaps laminated material is for testing.The acrylic compounds sheet material that uses is Shinkolite (Mitsubishi artificial silk company), but other supplier also can provide suitable acrylic material.Described internal cavity material is made up of the unsaturated polyester resin formulation of the catalyst that comprises 0.75 (w/w), and for example every liter of resin formulation comprises 7.5 gram catalyst, forms described sandwich/laminate samples, and gross thickness is 6 millimeters.
Four samples that prepared 300 millimeters * 300 millimeters * 6 millimeters thick.The sheet material of pre-perfusion pours into 6 hours hardening times, gel setting time 1 hour under 20 ℃ of room temperatures, 65% humidity.Sheet material places the atmosphere of the control of sealing, and temperature sets in advance at 20 ℃, and humidity is 65%.
We attempt accurately to make the optimum temperature by the obtainable maximum curvature of heat forming technology.
Equipment: smooth bed fan baking oven, have the flat bottom flaggy of inner teflon net, in case contingent bonding with oven interior of test products also has sealed glass and observe door, be used for observing.
Method: sample faced down to be placed on the teflon baking oven bottom, and the oven temperature of preheating is 110 ℃, heats 10-12 minute.
Use the hand of wearing mitten to pick up sample sheets then and carry out angle (corner) test.When the edge is in the malleability stage, flat scraper is slided into below the laminated sheet, it is shifted out, in case distortion and unnecessary excessive movement in advance take place.
Manufacturing process: at first make the shaped structure of various lamination MDF sheet material bending, will place from the sheet material that baking oven takes out on the estrade then, when sheet material was held and is processed into selected shape like this, mobile chance was limited.In order to make the breakdown point of the maximum and discrimination test of stress, employing 45 and various acute angle (various degrees ofshapness) when crooked.
Sheet material with heat directly places on the mould then, forms with hand operated, obtains the general shape of mould, then after stage carry out clamping, fixing, original position is solidified, and solidifies again.This is shown among Fig. 7.Thermal source 71 is the two-sided thermals source that put on duplexer 70.For our duplexer, the single face heating is undesirable.
Forming results:
Do not ftracture
Under the situation that is not having pressure forming and force to be shaped, make sample sheets form and when keeping anticipated shape, only at the center with along outward flange generation delamination.
The result: we find under all situations of using serious crooked (being equal to or greater than 45 degree), need make lamination form and outside fully combine closely in the same manner, sample sheets is suppressed between identical outside sweep, therefore make sample sheets form cavity between outer mold, the pressure of 2000 (2kilos) is enough.Preferably before the demoulding, suppress 12-15 minute time.
