Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of carbon fiber metallization, and particularly relates to a method and a system for continuously electroplating metal on the surface of carbon fiber.
Background
The nickel-plated carbon fiber is a high-conductivity light fiber material which is prepared by uniformly coating a metal coating on the surface of a carbon fiber wire on the basis of continuous nano modification of the surface of the carbon fiber, has the advantages of stronger corrosion resistance, light weight, higher strength, unique conductivity and magnetic conductivity and the like compared with the traditional electromagnetic shielding material, and has important application in the fields of aerospace, military instruments, rail transit, communication electronics, new energy automobiles and the like.
The surface of the carbon fiber precursor can be coated with organic glue before leaving the factory, so that the carbon fiber is smooth in surface and easy to wind. However, the presence of the colloidal layer is not conducive to metal coating, and in particular to electroplating, on the surface of the carbon fiber. Before the carbon fiber is electroplated, the carbon fiber must be subjected to degumming treatment, and two common degumming methods are adopted, namely organic solvent degumming (utilizing the principle of similarity and intermiscibility) and high-temperature treatment (pyrolyzing a colloidal layer). The carbon fiber glue removing efficiency of the traditional glue removing method is particularly low, and particularly aims at large-tow carbon fibers, so that the deposition of metal nickel on the surface of the carbon fibers during electroplating is influenced. In addition, electric field lines are shielded by the carbon wire aggregation of the large-tow carbon fibers, so that the outer layer of one bundle of carbon fibers is deposited more during electroplating, and the inner plating layer of the bundle is not deposited, so that the phenomena of uneven electroplating and black core are caused. The prior art mainly has the following defects: (1) the chemical plating process is complex, and the thickness of a plating layer is difficult to control; (2) in the traditional method, the process of metallization of the surface of the carbon fiber is multiple and scattered, and the carbon fiber product is difficult to be continuously processed and electroplated; (3) for large-tow carbon fibers, because of a plurality of monofilaments, surface fibers have a certain shielding effect on internal fibers, and the phenomenon of uneven electroplating and black core is easy to occur in the traditional electroplating process; (4) the traditional carbon fiber electroplating process can seriously weaken the original mechanical strength of the carbon fiber. Therefore, it is an urgent problem to provide a method for continuously electroplating metal on the surface of carbon fiber.
