Description

Fiber reinforced plastic electrofusion pipe fitting with mechanical property and electric property independently regulated and controlled
Technical Field
The invention relates to a nonmetallic pipeline connection technology, in particular to a fiber reinforced plastic electric melting pipe fitting with independently regulated and controlled mechanical performance and electric performance.
Background
The nonmetallic 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 a plurality of engineering fields such as municipal administration, ocean, building, nuclear power and the like at present, has immeasurable development prospect, and even has partial fields to gradually replace the traditional metallic pipeline.
In the connection technology of plastic and composite pipelines thereof, the electric fusion welding has higher automation degree, reliable welding technical performance and high welding efficiency, can greatly reduce the welding quality problem caused by human factors, and is the most commonly used pipeline connection technology at present. The principle of the welding of the electrofusion pipe fitting is as follows: and electrifying a resistance wire which is arranged in the pipe in advance, fusing and connecting the outer wall of the pipe with the electric melting pipe by utilizing heat and expansion force generated when the resistance wire is electrified, and cooling to obtain the electric melting joint with certain strength.
With the development of the reinforced composite pipe, the development and application of the steel-plastic composite pipe, the aluminum-plastic composite pipe and the fiber winding composite pipe obviously improve the strength and the bearing capacity of the plastic pipe, so that the composite pipe can be suitable for a higher pressure environment; in comparison with various reinforcing modes of pipelines, the reinforcing modes of electric melting pipe fittings serving as pipeline connection are very limited at present, and the strength of the electric melting pipe fittings has become a main bottleneck for limiting the development of high-pressure composite pipes. According to American Gas Association (AGA) statistics, about 65% of non-metallic gas pipeline failures come from joints and pipes, thus it can be seen that in non-metallic pipeline systems, the electro-fusion pipe becomes a weak link of the pipeline system due to the fact that the electro-fusion joint changes the integrity of the pipe itself.
In order to solve the problem that the strength of the electric melting pipe fitting is insufficient and improve the safety of the pipe fitting in service, the applicant team firstly proposes a short carbon fiber reinforced plastic electric melting pipe fitting (CN 109827014A) with a strain self-monitoring function, and the invention fills carbon fibers in a plastic matrix to strengthen the mechanical strength of a material, and the carrying capacity of the pipe fitting can be obviously improved by adopting the material to injection-mold the electric melting pipe fitting; meanwhile, the conductivity of the carbon fiber is utilized, and the structural health monitoring method of the electric melting pipe fitting based on resistance measurement is provided, so that the strain and damage monitoring of the electric melting pipe fitting and a pipeline system thereof under the action of internal pressure is realized, and the operation safety of the pipeline system is improved. The applicant team also found through practical tests that for polymer materials such as short carbon fiber reinforced polyethylene and polypropylene, the mechanical strength of the material exhibited a change of increasing and decreasing with increasing carbon fiber loading. And for the electrical property of the material, the material has different electrical sensitivity when the carbon fiber content changes near the percolation threshold, and has optimal electrical sensitivity when the carbon fiber content reaches the inflection point of the electrical percolation curve. Because the optimal carbon fiber filling content corresponding to the mechanical property enhancement and the electrical sensitivity enhancement 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 can not be simultaneously optimized. In the above patent, the inventor group proposes that the coordination between the mechanical performance and the structural health monitoring performance of the electric melting pipe fitting is highest by adjusting the material processing technology, the processing technology parameters and other methods. However, this method clearly leads to a reduction in processing efficiency, and there is a constant fluctuation 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 concrete implementation process, the invention provides a fiber reinforced plastic electric melting pipe fitting with independently regulated and controlled mechanical property and electrical property, and the electric melting pipe fitting is prepared from a fiber reinforced plastic composite material with a surface grown with an electric conductor; firstly, the maximum enhancement of the mechanical strength of the material is realized by changing the fiber filling quantity of the surface-grown conductor in the plastic matrix; secondly, the optimal electrical sensitivity of the material is realized by changing the content of the conductor grown 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 property of the pipe fitting are realized, and finally the electric melting pipe fitting with the optimal bearing capacity and the highest structural health monitoring sensitivity can be prepared.

Description of the principles of the invention
According to the invention, the fiber of the surface-grown conductor is filled in the thermoplastic plastic matrix, so that the mechanical property and the health monitoring property of the electric structure of the electric melting pipe fitting are independently regulated and controlled. The fiber has very high elastic modulus and yield strength, the elastic modulus and the yield strength of the fiber are basically not influenced after the conductor grows on the surface of the fiber, the combination of the fiber and the matrix is promoted, when the fiber with the conductor grows on the surface and is uniformly distributed in the plastic matrix, the fiber can bear the external load transmitted by the plastic matrix, the mechanical strength of the electric melting pipe fitting is improved, and the bursting pressure of the electric melting pipe fitting is further improved. At the same time, the conductors on the surface of the fiber serve as conductive media, and when the content of the conductors reaches the percolation threshold, a conductive network is formed between the conductors on the fibers dispersed in the matrix, so that the material has conductivity. In the running process, the pressure in the pipeline can cause deformation or damage of the material of the electric melting pipe fitting, so that the distance between conductive fibers in the material is increased, the conductive network between the conductors is gradually destroyed, the conductivity of the material is reduced, and the resistivity is increased; therefore, structural health monitoring of the electric smelting pipe fitting can be realized by testing the resistance value of the electric smelting pipe fitting material.
For the mechanical properties of the material, the mechanical strength of the fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite material with the surface grown conductor shows a trend of rising and then reducing 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 improved to the maximum; for the electrical property of the material, when the conductor content of the fiber surface changes near the percolation threshold, the material has different electrical sensitivity, and when the conductor content reaches the inflection point of the electrical percolation curve, if the conductive network between the internal conductors is damaged by deformation or damage and other factors, the resistance value of the composite material can be caused to fluctuate by orders of magnitude, and the monitoring capability of the deformation or damage of the composite material is improved, so that the material has the optimal electrical test sensitivity. The content of the conductive fiber and the growth amount of the conductor on the surface of the fiber are prepared into independent processes, so that the independent regulation and control of the mechanical property and the electrical property of the material are realized: the fiber filling quantity of the surface growing conductor in the matrix is changed, so that 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 conductor grown on the surface of the fiber. In the specific implementation process, if the content of the conductive fiber is lower than the content of the conductive fiber when the mechanical property is maximally improved in the electrical test of the highest sensitivity, the density of the conductive body on the surface of the fiber is too high, and the growth amount of the conductive body on the surface of the fiber needs to be reduced; and vice versa. Therefore, the fiber reinforced plastic electrofusion pipe fitting with the surface grown conductor provided by the invention realizes independent regulation and control of the mechanical property and structural health monitoring property of the material, and finally can be used for preparing the electrofusion pipe fitting with the optimal mechanical property and the highest structural health monitoring sensitivity.
In order to realize structural health monitoring of the fiber reinforced thermoplastic electric melting pipe fitting with the surface growing conductors, electrodes are stuck on the surface of the electric melting pipe fitting, and deformation and damage conditions of the electric melting pipe fitting can be monitored by measuring resistance values between the electrodes. According to the structural health method, deformation and damage conditions of any positions can be monitored only by sticking two electrodes on the surface of the electric melting pipe fitting, so that structural health monitoring of the electric melting pipe fitting in a use process is realized, the intellectualization of the electric melting pipe fitting is realized, and meanwhile, the safety of the electric melting pipe fitting is also improved.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
(1) The invention can realize independent regulation and control of the mechanical bearing capacity and structural health monitoring performance of the electric smelting pipe fitting. The maximum enhancement of the mechanical strength of the material is realized by adjusting the fiber filling quantity of the surface-grown conductor in the substrate; the optimal sensitivity of structural health monitoring is realized by adjusting the content of the conductor grown 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 traditional short carbon fiber filled thermoplastic plastic for preparing the electric melting pipe fitting are difficult to be simultaneously considered.
(2) The electric smelting pipe fitting is formed in one step by adopting an injection molding method, an additional steel plate or fiber reinforced layer is not needed, the manufacturing process is simple, the stability is good, and the process cost is reduced. Therefore, the defects of complex process, bonding defect between two materials, annular reinforcement only, axial unreinforced and the like in the traditional steel plate reinforcement and fiber reinforced pipe fitting are overcome.
