Description

Method and system for continuously electroplating metal on surface of carbon fiber
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 a carbon fiber.
Background
The nickel-plated carbon fiber is a high-conductivity light fiber material which uniformly coats a metal coating on the surface of a carbon fiber wire on the basis of continuous nano modification on 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 equipment, rail transit, communication electronics, new energy automobiles and the like.
The surface of the carbon fiber precursor is coated with the organic glue before leaving the factory, so that the surface of the carbon fiber is smooth and is easy to wind. However, the presence of the colloidal layer is disadvantageous for metal coating on the surface of the carbon fiber, and in particular for electroplating on the surface of the carbon fiber. Before the carbon fiber is electroplated, the carbon fiber must be subjected to a photoresist removing treatment, and two common photoresist removing methods are adopted, namely, an organic solvent photoresist removing method (using a similar compatibility principle) and a photoresist removing method through a high-temperature treatment (high-temperature cracking of a photoresist layer). The traditional photoresist removing method has low photoresist removing efficiency of the carbon fiber, and particularly aims at large-tow carbon fiber, thereby influencing the deposition of metallic nickel on the surface of the carbon fiber during electroplating. In addition, because the carbon wires of the large-tow carbon fibers gather and shield the electric field lines, the outer layer metal deposition of one-tow carbon fibers is more during electroplating, and the plating layer deposition in the tow is not up, and the phenomenon of uneven electroplating and black heart appears. The prior art mainly has the following defects: the chemical plating process is complex, and the thickness of the plating layer is difficult to control; (2) In the traditional method, the surface metallization of the carbon fiber has a plurality of and scattered working procedures, and the carbon fiber product is difficult to continuously process and plate; (3) Aiming at large-tow carbon fibers, as the number of monofilaments is large, surface fibers have a certain shielding effect on internal fibers, and the phenomenon of uneven electroplating and black heart easily occurs in the traditional electroplating process; (4) The conventional carbon fiber electroplating process can seriously weaken the original mechanical strength of the carbon fiber. Therefore, a method for continuously electroplating metal on the surface of carbon fiber is needed to be solved.
