Description

Polyacrylonitrile carbon fiber with low defects and high strength and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a polyacrylonitrile carbon fiber with low defects and high strength and a preparation method thereof. In particular to a method for preparing polyacrylonitrile solution with high molecular weight and narrow distribution by a reversible addition/fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) free radical polymerization process, preparing polyacrylonitrile with carboxyl at the tail end by adopting a RAFT reagent with carboxyl functional groups, and simultaneously carrying out copolymerization reaction by adopting a second monomer with difunctional groups and similar reactivity ratio with acrylonitrile, thereby obtaining polyacrylonitrile with higher chain structure regularity and uniform distribution of copolymerized units, preparing high-quality precursor, and further preparing the polyacrylonitrile carbon fiber with low defects and high strength by pre-oxidation, carbonization and post-treatment.
Background
The preparation process of the polyacrylonitrile carbon fiber is a system engineering which relates to a plurality of complex processes such as polymerization, spinning, pre-oxidation, carbonization, post-treatment and the like and has high correlation between front and back. How to control the molecular structure of polyacrylonitrile by the polymerization process is a prerequisite for preparing high-performance filaments and carbon fibers. The polyacrylonitrile currently used as a carbon fiber precursor is mostly prepared by binary copolymerization of acrylonitrile with itaconic acid or ternary copolymerization of acrylonitrile with itaconic acid, unsaturated carboxylic acid esters (unsaturated amides), etc. Wherein, carboxyl contained in the polymerized monomer is used for reducing the cyclization temperature of the precursor in the preoxidation cyclization process, widening the exothermic peak and relieving the exothermic rate; the ester groups contained in the polymerized monomers serve to improve the spinnability and the proto-drawdown of the polymer product.
Since radical copolymerization is a very complex process, the resulting acrylonitrile copolymers tend to have the following disadvantages: (1) lower molecular weight and broader distribution; (2) The difference of the reactivity ratios of the comonomers is large, so that the composition deviation of the obtained copolymer is large and the distribution of the copolymerization units is uneven; (3) The acrylonitrile sequence has low regularity and many defects of macromolecular structure. The composition and structure defects can cause the quality of the precursor to be low, so that the defects are inherited to the carbon fiber, and the performance improvement of the carbon fiber is severely restricted.
The cleavage-addition chain transfer radical polymerization (RAFT) is a polymerization method in which a chain transfer agent is added to a polymerization system to form a dormant intermediate with a growing chain radical, and irreversible chain termination is limited, thereby effectively controlling reactivity. Compared with the traditional free radical polymerization method, the RAFT free radical polymerization can prepare polyacrylonitrile with ultrahigh molecular weight and narrow distribution, has simple process, less impurities and high product purity, and the polymerization system adopts a homogeneous environment, and can directly obtain spinning solution after removing monomers and bubbles so as to further prepare the precursor.

TABLE 7
The test results in tables 4 to 7 show that:
examples 1 to 19 used a proper mass fraction of NaSCN solution as a solvent, and the molecular weight distribution of the polyacrylonitrile obtained by adding RAFT agent and comonomer was narrower, and was Mw/mn=1.23 to 1.74, and the molecular weight distribution of the polyacrylonitrile obtained when the solvent was changed to an organic solvent was broadened, and the Mw/Mn of comparative examples 3 and 4 was >2.0, indicating that the polymerization process in this example was in the active controlled polymerization category. In the polymerization process, the polymerization reaction rate can be adjusted by changing the polymerization reaction temperature, the initiator dosage and the proportion of the comonomer and the RAFT reagent, and the designability of the molecular weight of the polymer can be realized according to the principle that the comonomer conversion rate and the polymerization time form a first-order linear relation.
Because the special RAFT reagent with carboxyl functional groups at two ends is selected, compared with the common acrylonitrile copolymer precursor or (comparative example 1), the DSC exothermic initiation temperature is reduced, the exothermic width is increased, and the polyacrylonitrile precursor has better oxidative cyclization activity.
