Description

Nonlinear conductive epoxy resin composite material and preparation method and application thereof

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of materials, in particular to a nonlinear conductive epoxy resin composite material and a preparation method and application thereof.

Background

Epoxy resins have advantages in electrical and mechanical properties, making them one of the main materials used in insulating structures for a variety of electrical devices. With the continuous improvement of voltage grades, electric field distortion, partial discharge and the like are more prone to occur in the insulation of high-voltage electrical equipment such as insulators, cable accessories, transistors and the like, and the degradation and breakdown failure of insulating polymer materials are caused. In order to suppress local electric field distortion and optimize electric field distribution, two methods are generally adopted, one is structural field grading, for example, changing the shape of an electrode, adding a multilayer parallel capacitor or a grading ring in an insulating medium; the other is an electric field gradient material prepared by blending a polymer material and a wide bandgap semiconductor filler. Compared with the structural field grading, the preparation of the composite material with the electric field gradient is simpler and more applicable.

In recent years, researchers have been working on the preparation of electric field gradient composites. In order to realize excellent nonlinear electrical conductivity in the polymer/semiconductor composite material, a large amount of filler is required to be doped in the polymer matrix, and the doping amount is up to 30%, so that although the switching field threshold can be reduced, the excessive filler can generate larger interface thermal resistance, the thermal conductivity of the composite material is reduced, and the service life of the electrical equipment is obviously reduced. Therefore, it is important to synergistically improve the thermal conductivity while maintaining excellent nonlinear electrical conductivity characteristics.

Detailed Description

The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to specific examples. The examples are described only for the purpose of facilitating understanding of the invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The materials, reagents and the like used in the examples are those obtained from commercial sources unless otherwise specified.

Example 1

The preparation process of the epoxy resin composite material shown in the attached figure 1 is adopted to prepare the epoxy resin composite material, and comprises the following steps of preparing modified silicon carbide, preparing cellulose aerogel loaded with the modified silicon carbide and preparing the epoxy resin composite material.

The preparation method of the modified silicon carbide of the embodiment is as follows:

(1) dispersing SiC particles in a sodium hydroxide (NaOH) aqueous solution, carrying out ultrasonic treatment, and then uniformly stirring in a constant-temperature magnetic stirrer;

(2) carrying out suction filtration on the solution through a Buchner funnel to obtain hydroxylated SiC (named SiC-OH), alternately washing the solution for 3 times by using absolute ethyl alcohol and deionized water, and then placing the washed solution in an oven for heating and drying to obtain SiC-OH particles;

(3) ultrasonically dispersing SiC-OH particles in an ethanol water solution, then adding a silane coupling agent KH550(APTES), and placing the mixture in an oil bath pan for condensation reflux reaction;

(4) and (3) carrying out suction filtration on the solution through a Buchner funnel, washing the solution for multiple times by using deionized water, and carrying out vacuum freeze drying to obtain APTES modified SiC particles, namely modified silicon carbide (named as SiC-APTES).

In the step (1), the mass of SiC particles is 2g, the particle size is 5 microns, the volume of NaOH solution is 200mL, the concentration is 1mol/L, the ultrasonic treatment time is 30 minutes, the constant-temperature magnetic stirring temperature is 80 ℃, and the stirring reaction time is 24 hours;

in the step (2), the drying temperature is 100 ℃ and the drying time is 12 hours.

In the step (3), the volume-to-mass ratio of APTES, absolute ethyl alcohol and SiC-OH is 1 mL: 180 mL: 3g, the ultrasonic treatment time is 1 hour, the condensation reflux reaction temperature is 80 ℃, and the ethanol water solution is obtained by mixing 180mL of absolute ethanol and 20mL of deionized water.

In the step (4), the freeze drying temperature is-50 ℃, the pressure is 0.0001Pa, the drying time is 24 hours, and the mass ratio of the obtained SiC-APTES to the SiC particles is 1: 1.01.

The infrared spectrogram of the SiC particles and the prepared SiC-OH and modified silicon carbide (SiC-APTES) is shown in the attached figure 2. As can be seen from FIG. 2, SiC was 822cm ^-1 A strong infrared characteristic peak is positioned, and corresponds to a Si-C stretching vibration peak. Since untreated SiC does not have hydroxyl groups for functionalization, SiC first needs to be hydroxylated, e.g., SiC-OH at 3200- ^-1 Shown as the infrared peak at (a). The infrared spectroscopy of SiC-APTES proves the successful grafting of silane molecules on the SiC-OH surface. SiC-APTES in 1291, 1612 and 2920m, in contrast to SiC-OH ^-1 Three new absorption peaks appear, which are respectively attributed to the C-N stretching vibration peak, the N-H bending vibration peak and the C-H stretching vibration peak of the alkyl group, and the results all prove that APTES is successfully grafted to the SiC surface.

To further demonstrate the successful grafting of the silane coupling agent, the composition of the surface element of SiC-APTES was analyzed using XPS. The results are shown in FIGS. 3 to 4, and it can be seen from FIGS. 3 to 4 that SiC-APTES can clearly detect the occurrence of a new peak of N1s as compared with SiC and SiC-OH, which also indicates that the silane coupling agent has been successfully grafted to the surface of the SiC particles.

Pure epoxy resin (EP) and examples 7 to 11 with different SiC-APTEVolume fraction EP/SiC-APTES As shown in FIG. 11, examples 1-6 EP/3D with different volume fractions of SiC-APTE _c The thermal conductivity of the-SiC-APTES composite is shown in FIG. 11, in which the thermal conductivity of the EP/SiC-SPTES composite having randomly distributed SiC is 0.19W/mK, 0.22W/mK, 0.26W/mK, 0.3W/mK and 0.35W/mK at 1.54 vol%, 3.23 vol%, 4.47 vol%, 7.1 vol% and 10.58 vol%, respectively, and EP/3D after self-assembling SiC on a cellulose aerogel skeleton _c The thermal conductivity of the-SiC-SPTES composite material at 1.54 vol%, 3.23 vol%, 4.47 vol%, 7.1 vol% and 10.58 vol% is 0.21W/mK, 0.24W/mK, 0.3W/mK, 0.45W/mK and 0.69W/mK respectively. The thermal conductivity of both types of epoxy composites increases with the volume fraction of filler, which can be attributed to the higher intrinsic thermal conductivity of SiC. Meanwhile, the surface of the silicon carbide is grafted with the silane coupling agent, so that the interface bonding force can be enhanced, covalent connection is formed between the silicon carbide and an epoxy group, the interface compatibility between the silicon carbide and an epoxy resin matrix is improved, the interface phonon scattering effect and the interface thermal resistance are obviously reduced, and the thermal conductivity coefficient is improved. Furthermore, pure epoxy resins and EP/3D _c The thermal conductivity of the composite material is only 0.18-0.19W/mK, and 10.58 vol% EP/3D _c -SiC ₂₁ The thermal conductivity of APTES is as high as 0.69W/mK, which is improved by about 300% compared with pure epoxy resin and is higher than that of EP/SiC of SiC-APTES with random distribution ₂₁ The thermal conductivity (0.35W/mK) of the APTES composite material is higher than 100%, and at the same volume fraction, EP/3D _c The thermal conductivity of the-SiC-APTES is higher than that of the EP/SiC-APTES, and the EP/3D _c The larger the volume fraction of SiC-APTES in the-SiC-APTES composite material is, the more remarkable the increase of the thermal conductivity coefficient is. When the volume fraction is less than 4.47 vol%, the thermal conductivity increases linearly to a small extent, indicating that there is no thermal conduction path. Starting from 4.47 vol%, the slope increases significantly as the SiC-APTES loading increases. The method shows that the cellulose framework provides a 3D interconnection network, and the SiC-APTES loaded on the 3D framework aims at constructing a high-efficiency heat conduction path, reducing heat loss generated by interface thermal resistance and shortening a heat conduction path, so that the method has the advantage of remarkably improving the heat conductivity coefficient.
