Background
The non-metal pipeline has the advantages of corrosion resistance, high flexibility, good toughness, economy, environmental protection, long service life and the like, is a recognized 'green' pipeline, is widely applied to many engineering fields such as municipal administration, ocean, building, nuclear power and the like at present, has an immeasurable development prospect, and even gradually replaces traditional metal pipelines in some fields.
In the connection technology of plastic and composite pipelines thereof, the degree of automation of electric fusion welding is high, the welding technology performance is reliable, the welding efficiency is high, the problem of welding quality caused by human factors can be greatly reduced, and the method is the most common pipeline connection technology at present. The principle of electric smelting pipe fitting welding is: and electrifying a resistance wire which is pre-arranged in the pipe fitting, connecting the outer wall of the pipe fitting and the electric melting pipe fitting together by using heat and expansion force generated when the resistance wire is electrified, and cooling to obtain the electric melting joint with certain strength.
Along with the development of reinforced composite pipelines, the development and application of steel-plastic composite pipes, aluminum-plastic composite pipes and fiber winding composite pipes obviously improve the strength and the bearing capacity of the plastic pipelines, so that the composite pipelines can be suitable for higher pressure environments; compared with various reinforcing modes of pipelines, the reinforcing mode of the electric melting pipe fitting for pipeline connection is very limited at present, and the strength of the electric melting pipe fitting becomes a main bottleneck for limiting the development of high-pressure composite pipes. According to the american gas society (AGA), about 65% of non-metallic gas pipeline failures come from joints and pipe fittings, and thus it can be seen that in non-metallic pipeline systems, the electrofused joints change the integrity of the pipe itself, making the electrofused pipe fittings a weak link of the pipeline system.
In order to solve the problem of insufficient strength of the electric melting pipe fitting and improve the safety of the pipe fitting in service, an applicant team firstly provides a short carbon fiber reinforced plastic electric melting pipe fitting (CN 109827014A) with a strain self-monitoring function, the mechanical strength of a material is enhanced by filling carbon fibers in a plastic matrix, and the bearing capacity of the pipe fitting can be remarkably improved by adopting the material to injection mold the electric melting pipe fitting; meanwhile, the electric conductivity of the carbon fibers is utilized, a structure health monitoring method of the electric melting pipe fitting based on resistance measurement is provided, strain and damage monitoring of the electric melting pipe fitting and the pipeline system of the electric melting pipe fitting under the action of internal pressure is realized, and the running safety of the pipeline system is improved. The applicant team also found through practical tests that, for short carbon fiber reinforced polymer materials such as polyethylene and polypropylene, the mechanical strength of the material shows a first-rising and then-decreasing change along with the increase of the filling content of the carbon fiber. For the electrical properties of the material, when the content of the carbon fiber changes around the percolation threshold value of the carbon fiber, the material has different electrical sensitivity, and when the content of the carbon fiber reaches the inflection point of an electrical percolation curve, the material has the best electrical sensitivity. Because the optimal carbon fiber filling content corresponding to the enhancement of the mechanical property and the improvement of the electrical sensitivity of the material is often not completely consistent, the mechanical property and the structural health monitoring performance of the produced short carbon fiber reinforced plastic electric melting pipe fitting cannot be simultaneously optimized. In the above patent, the inventor group proposed that the mechanical properties of the electric melting pipe fittings and the structural health monitoring performance are synergistically maximized by adjusting the material processing technology, the processing technology parameters and the like. However, this method undoubtedly results in a reduction in the processing efficiency and also in fluctuations in the length and dispersion of the short carbon fibers in the resulting matrix.
In order to solve the defects of the short carbon fiber reinforced plastic electric melting pipe fitting in the specific implementation process, the invention provides the fiber reinforced plastic electric melting pipe fitting with independently regulated and controlled mechanical properties and electrical properties, and the electric melting pipe fitting is prepared from a fiber reinforced plastic composite material with an electric conductor growing on the surface; firstly, the maximum enhancement of the mechanical strength of the material is realized by changing the fiber filling amount of the electric conductor growing on the surface in the plastic matrix; secondly, the optimal electrical sensitivity of the material is realized by changing the content of the electric conductor growing on the surface of the fiber; therefore, the independent regulation and control of the mechanical property and the electrical sensitivity of the material are realized, the independent regulation and control of the mechanical property and the structural health monitoring performance of the pipe fitting are further realized, and finally the electric melting pipe fitting with the best bearing capacity and the highest structural health monitoring sensitivity can be prepared.

Description of the invention
The invention realizes the independent regulation and control of the mechanical performance and the electric structure health monitoring performance of the electric melting pipe fitting by filling the fibers of the surface-grown electric conductor in the thermoplastic plastic matrix. The fibers have high elastic modulus and yield strength, basically have no influence on the elastic modulus and the yield strength of the fibers after the electric conductors grow on the surfaces of the fibers, and promote the combination of the fibers and the matrix. Meanwhile, the electric conductors on the surfaces of the fibers serve as a conductive medium, and when the content of the electric conductors reaches a percolation threshold, a conductive network is formed among the electric conductors on the fibers dispersed in the matrix, so that the material has conductivity. In the operation process, the pressure in the pipeline can cause the deformation or damage of the material of the electric melting pipe fitting, so that the distance between the conductive fibers in the material is increased, the conductive network between the electric conductors is gradually damaged, the conductivity of the material is reduced, and the resistivity of the material is increased; therefore, the structural health monitoring of the electric melting pipe fitting can be realized by testing the resistance value of the material of the electric melting pipe fitting.
For the mechanical property of the material, the mechanical strength of the fiber reinforced thermoplastic plastic composite material with the electric conductor growing on the surface shows a trend of increasing firstly and then decreasing along with the increase of the filling content of the conductive fiber, and the filling content of the conductive fiber when the composite material shows the maximum mechanical strength is the content of the conductive fiber when the mechanical property is maximally improved; for the electrical property of the material, when the content of the electric conductor on the surface of the fiber changes near the percolation threshold value, the material has different electrical sensitivities, and when the content of the electric conductor reaches the inflection point of the electrical percolation curve, if the conductive network between the internal electric conductor and the electric conductor is damaged due to the factors such as deformation or damage and the like of the composite material, the resistance value of the composite material can fluctuate by orders of magnitude, the monitoring capability of the composite material on the deformation or damage is improved, and therefore the material has the best electrical testing sensitivity. Because the preparation of the content of the conductive fiber and the growth amount of the electric conductor on the surface of the fiber is an independent process, the independent regulation and control of the mechanical property and the electrical property of the material are realized: the fiber filling amount of the surface growth electric conductor in the matrix is changed, and the maximum enhancement of the mechanical strength of the material is realized; and secondly, the optimal electrical test sensitivity is realized by changing the content of the electric conductor growing on the surface of the fiber. In the specific implementation process, if the content of the conductive fibers in the electrical test with the highest sensitivity is lower than that in the process of the maximum improvement of the mechanical properties, the density of the conductive bodies on the surface of the fibers is too high, and the growth amount of the conductive bodies on the surface of the fibers needs to be reduced; and vice versa. Therefore, the fiber reinforced plastic electric melting pipe fitting with the electric conductor growing on the surface provided by the invention realizes independent regulation and control of the mechanical property and the structural health monitoring performance of the material, and finally can be used for preparing the electric melting pipe fitting with the best mechanical property and the highest structural health monitoring sensitivity.
In order to realize the structural health monitoring of the fiber reinforced thermoplastic electric melting pipe fitting with the electric conductor growing on the surface, electrodes are pasted on the surface of the electric melting pipe fitting, and the deformation and damage conditions of the electric melting pipe fitting can be monitored by measuring the resistance value between the electrodes. According to the structural health method, only two electrodes are needed to be pasted on the surface of the electric melting pipe fitting, so that the deformation and damage conditions of any position can be monitored, the structural health monitoring of the electric melting pipe fitting in the using process is realized, the intellectualization of the electric melting pipe fitting is realized, and the safety of the electric melting pipe fitting is improved.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
(1) The invention can realize the independent regulation and control of the mechanical bearing capacity and the structural health monitoring performance of the electric melting pipe fitting. The maximum enhancement of the mechanical strength of the material is realized by adjusting the fiber filling amount of the surface growth electric conductor in the matrix; the optimal sensitivity of the structural health monitoring is realized by adjusting the content of the electric conductor growing on the surface of the fiber; therefore, the invention overcomes the defect that the maximum mechanical bearing capacity and the electrical structure health monitoring sensitivity of the pipe fitting are difficult to simultaneously consider in the traditional preparation of the electric melting pipe fitting by filling the thermoplastic plastics with the short carbon fibers.
(2) The electric melting pipe fitting is formed in one step by an injection molding method, an additional steel plate or a fiber reinforced layer is not needed, the manufacturing process is simple, the stability is good, and the process cost is reduced. Therefore, the defects that the traditional steel plate reinforced and fiber reinforced pipe fitting is complex in process, bonding between two materials exists, only annular reinforcement can be achieved, and axial reinforcement cannot be achieved are overcome.
