Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of cables, and particularly relates to a high-conductivity aluminum wire cable core and a preparation method thereof.
Background
With the continuous improvement of the electrification degree of modern rail transit trains, the number of vehicle-mounted cables is gradually increased. The cable core is usually made of copper or aluminum, and the conventional copper conductor has a high density, so that the contradiction between the number and the weight of the cable cannot be met. The density of the aluminum conductor is only 1/3 for the copper conductor, but the aluminum conductivity is only 2/3 for the copper conductor. The use of aluminum conductors reduces the weight of the cable by about 50% for the same resistance, but also increases the volume of the cable by 50% to reduce the space available for the train. Therefore, on the premise of keeping the low density of the aluminum conductor, the conductivity of the aluminum conductor needs to be greatly improved, so that the requirements of future trains on light-weight high-conductivity high-performance conductive materials are met. The graphene has extremely excellent conductivity, the theoretical carrier migration rate of the graphene is 100 ten thousand times of that of copper, and the graphene is an ideal aluminum conductor modified material. The graphene modified aluminum conductor is expected to prepare a light high-conductivity material meeting the requirements of future trains.
In the prior art, methods for modifying an aluminum conductor by graphene mainly comprise a powder metallurgy method and a wire surface deposition method. The powder metallurgy method is the most conventional method for modifying an aluminum conductor by graphene, and mainly takes graphene powder as a raw material, the graphene powder is uniformly dispersed by mixing with aluminum powder, an ingot blank is obtained by sintering, and finally a graphene aluminum wire is obtained by drawing deformation. In the drawing deformation process, the material is greatly deformed due to elongation, and the low-content graphene is difficult to form a continuous high-conductivity network in an aluminum wire matrix; even if the networking of the graphene is realized by adopting the high-content graphene, the conductivity of the graphene is greatly reduced due to a large number of interfaces between graphene sheets, and the high-conductivity characteristic of the graphene cannot be fully exerted. In addition, although the method of depositing graphene on the surface of the aluminum wire can obtain a continuously distributed high-conductivity network, the method of modifying the aluminum wire with graphene also has two main problems: firstly, the thickness of the single-layer graphene is only 0.34nm, only 1 layer of graphene is deposited on the surface of the aluminum wire, the effective conductive section is still small, and the improvement on the conductive performance is limited; if multilayer graphene is deposited, the conductivity of the graphene is greatly reduced. Secondly, the graphene directly grown on the aluminum surface is generally low in quality, the difference between the conductivity and the conductivity of the graphene grown on the aluminum substrate is large, and the high conductivity of the graphene cannot be fully exerted.
