Description

High-performance high-temperature-resistant heat-insulation polyimide foam and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of advanced materials, and particularly relates to high-performance high-temperature-resistant heat-insulation polyimide foam and application thereof.
Background
Polyimide is a heat-resistant polymer material with excellent comprehensive performance, and has good thermal performance, mechanical performance and chemical stability, and lower dielectric constant and thermal expansion coefficient. Meanwhile, the variety of dianhydride and diamine monomer structure types for preparing polyimide molecules ensures that polyimide molecules have multiple structure types, strong designability and wide application fields.
The polyimide foam is a foam plastic with polyimide resin as a matrix and a porous structure on the inner and outer layers. Polyimide foam not only has the characteristics of light weight, heat insulation, sound absorption and the like, but also has excellent heat resistance, radiation resistance, flame retardance and dimensional stability due to the excellent performance of polyimide, and is attracting more attention and importance of researchers, and has been widely applied to the fields of heat insulation and sound insulation materials of aircrafts and the like.
With the gradual development of the field equipment such as aerospace, nuclear power equipment, ship industry, medical equipment, new energy and the like towards high performance and high functionality, in order to meet the application requirements of the fields, a plurality of researches are currently focused on developing polyimide foam with higher thermal stability and mechanical property, but the polyimide foam tends to have high apparent density, mechanical elasticity and reduced heat insulation property; on the contrary, polyimide foam with light apparent density, good flexibility and heat insulation performance has poor performance of mechanical performance and thermal performance. For example, chinese patent CN101735457B discloses a method for producing a flexible polyimide foam, which is obtained by a free foaming method, and then is cured in a microwave oven and a high temperature oven, so that the prepared foam has low density, is soft and elastic, but has poor mechanical properties and thermal properties, and cannot meet the application in various fields. Ren et al succeeded in preparing a light isocyanate-based polyimide foam having a foam cell size of 518 to 791 μm and an open cell content of 6.85 to 58.46%, but having poor thermal performance (Ren, X.H.; sun, G.H.; wang, L.C.; chen, R.R.; wang, J.; han, S.H. facility Adjusting for Cells of Lightweight Isocyanate-based Polyimide Foam and Operable Combination between Different Distinctive Acoustic Foams for Higher performance.Chinese Journal of Polymer Science 2021,39 (2), 237-248).
Therefore, it has been a problem in the art to prepare polyimide foam having excellent mechanical properties, flexibility, high temperature resistance, radiation resistance and heat insulation properties. Patent application CN114213696a discloses a polyimide foam, which is prepared by combining microwave-assisted foaming and curing processes, has light weight, flexibility, high temperature resistance and excellent heat insulation performance, but the mechanical performance of the polyimide foam still needs to be further improved. How to improve the mechanical strength of polyimide foam while ensuring low apparent density, good flexibility, heat resistance and heat insulation performance is also needed to be explored more deeply. Meanwhile, the polyimide foam has important application in high-temperature heat insulation due to high heat resistance, but the heat conductivity of the polyimide foam is generally higher than 0.030W/m.K, for example, 3',4' -benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride and 4,4' -diaminodiphenyl ether are used as raw materials in the literature (Jiangtian sweet. Preparation of polyimide foam and modification research of polyimide foam.2020), and the density is only 10kg/m by adopting a free foaming method 3 But the heat conductivity of the soft open-cell polyimide foam is higher than 0.035W/m.K, so that the preparation of the low-density high-heat-resistance polyimide foam with lower heat conductivity has important application value.
Therefore, through a simple and effective technology, the light and flexible polyimide foam material is provided, and particularly the light and flexible polyimide foam material has the advantages of light weight, high temperature resistance, radiation resistance, outstanding heat insulation performance, excellent flexibility and mechanical strength, and can realize anisotropic heat protection and infrared stealth, and has great significance, and has wide application prospects in various important fields such as aerospace, nuclear power equipment, ship industry, medical appliances, new energy sources and the like.

Experimental example 1 optical and micro-morphology of polyimide foam of the present invention
1. Experimental method
The cell structure of the foam samples was characterized by scanning electron microscopy using the copolyfoam of examples 1-3 and the blended foam of examples 4-6. Prior to observation, the foam was cut into pieces, and the surface of each piece was sputtered with gold. And finally, measuring and analyzing the size of the cell pores by nano test software.
2. Experimental results
As shown in fig. 1, the microstructure of the foam exhibits a regular three-dimensional (3D) cellular morphology in the direction of cell growth, with uniform cell distribution. As shown in Table 1, the average pore diameters of examples 1-6 were 287, 270, 395, 248, 213 and 202 μm, respectively. The corresponding bubble wall and bubble film thickness are between 2-10 μm and 200-1000nm, respectively. The differences in the cell structure of the foam are mainly influenced by the combination of molecular structure, melt viscosity, volatile content and foaming temperature. The foam of the blend system has smaller, more uniform pore sizes and thicker bubble films, thereby helping to increase the mechanical flexibility of the foam material. The results show that all foams possess micro-nano multi-scale microstructures, which gives the foam material very excellent mechanical properties.
Experimental example 2 mechanical Properties and various physical Properties of polyimide foam of the invention
1. Experimental method
The apparent density of the foams was calculated according to GB/T6343-2009 using the copolyfoam of examples 1-3 and the blended foam of examples 4-6. According to GB/T10799-2008, the open cell content of the foam was evaluated using an automatic true densitometer. Foam samples (30X 15 mm) were evaluated using a universal mechanical tester 3 ) The compression ratio was 2mm/min.
2. Experimental results
The compressibility of the foam was studied to evaluate the correlation between mechanical flexibility and molecular structure and microstructure. As shown in Table 1, all foams exhibited light weight (25-30 kg/m 3 ) And full aperture ratio (99.99%). All foams possess excellent mechanical flexibility with a compression recovery of 96% to 98% at a maximum compression strain of 50%. All foams showed excellent mechanical strength, 10% compression strengthBetween 65 KPa and 103KPa, 50% compression strength is between 132 KPa and 191 KPa. Example 6 shows higher molecular chain stiffness, as well as smaller average pore size (202 μm) and thicker bubble film (918 nm), which is why it shows the highest compression performance (compression strength @10% 102.95KPa, compression strength @50% 190.75 KPa). In general, the blended foams possess better mechanical properties, mainly related to their more suitable micron-sized cells (200-250 μm) and thicker nanoscale bubble films. In summary, the polyimide foam prepared by the present invention exhibits excellent mechanical flexibility and high mechanical strength.
The physical properties of each foam of the present invention are shown in Table 1:

Experimental example 3 thermal stability of polyimide foam of the present invention
1. Experimental method
The copolyfoam of examples 1-3 and the blended foam of examples 4-6 were heated from 35 ℃ to 800 ℃ at a rate of 10 ℃/min using a thermogravimetric analyzer to test the thermal stability of the fully imidized foam MAFs and the fully imidized foam PIFs.
2. Experimental results
As shown in Table 2, under nitrogen, the fully imidized MAF exhibited an initial thermal decomposition temperature (T 5% ) And a weight residue at 800 ℃ (R 800 ) The decrease occurs with a slight weight loss peak at 200-300 ℃, mainly due to degradation of the polyester ammonium salt in the molecular chain. In contrast, fully imidized PIF exhibits good thermal stability, T 5% Above 500 ℃, R 800 Higher than 55%. PIF copolymer system BTDA/ODA-MDA 、PIF BTDA/ODA-DMBZ And PIF BTDA/MDA-DMBZ T in nitrogen 5% 527.9, 517.8 and 502.6℃R 800 55.1, 55.2 and 56.9%, respectively. PIF (PIF) blend system BTDA/ODA&BTDA/MDA 、PIF BTDA/ODA&BTDA/DMBZ And PIF BTDA/MDA&BTDA/DMBZ T in nitrogen 5% 522.7, 510.3 and 505.2℃R 800 54.9, 56.1 and 57.1%, respectively. The small difference in thermal stability between the co-foam and the blended foam suggests that the thermal stability of polyimide foam is primarily affected by the molecular structure, rather than by the foaming and shaping process.
The above results prove that the polyimide foam prepared by the invention has good thermal stability.

2. Experimental results
As shown in fig. 2A, the glass transition temperatures (T g ) And molecular structure. T for DSC, foam g Has excellent heat resistance between 267-281 ℃. And the heat resistance of the foam increases with the rigidity of its molecular chain. However, due to T of the blended foam g Overlapping, the differences in molecular structure of the foam cannot be characterized by DSC. From the figure, the copolyfoam has a homogeneous structure, however, it cannot be judged whether the blended foam has a homogeneous structure by DSC.
As shown in fig. 2B, the PIF BTDA/ODA 、PIF BTDA/DMBZ 、PIF BTDA/ODA-DMBZ And PIF BTDA/ODA&BTDA/DMBZ T of (2) g 297.6, 348.2, 310.7 ℃, 294.4 and 348.1 ℃, respectively, the foam havingExcellent heat resistance. Through DMA analysis, the molecular structure of the precursor powder subjected to copolymerization is subjected to chemical crosslinking reaction in the synthesis process, and the foam finally presents a homogeneous structure; whereas two T are present for the two precursor powders blended g It can be seen that no chemical reaction occurs during foaming and the foam eventually assumes a phase-separated structure. DSC and DMA results indicate that all foams exhibit good heat resistance and are suitable for the high temperature resistant field.
The above results demonstrate that polyimide foams having excellent properties can be produced regardless of whether two different diamines are copolymerized together with a dianhydride or separately copolymerized with a dianhydride and then blended.

2. Experimental results
The radiation resistance of the polyimide foam of the present invention was evaluated by evaluating the changes in molecular structure, microstructure, thermal stability and mechanical properties of the polyimide foam before and after irradiation. The results show that the position and intensity of the infrared absorption peaks of the benzene ring and imide ring of the foam after irradiation do not significantly change, and only-CH in MDA 2 and-CH in DMBZ 3 The peak of (2) was attenuated after irradiation, while the peak of c=o in BTDA and C-O-C in ODA remained unchanged, indicating that the weak bond was broken during irradiation. After radiation treatment, the foam color turns yellow and deepens, and still shows a regular, micrometer/nanometer scale multi-scale pore structure, which is structurally stable, which is critical to maintaining mechanical properties. Table 3 shows PIF BTDA/ODA-MDA And PIF BTDA/ODA&BTDA/DMBZ The heat stability and mechanical property parameters before and after irradiation are calculated, and the heat stability retention rate of the foam after the irradiation treatment is 82.95 percent and 82.40 percent respectively.

Furthermore, the foam after the irradiation treatment still showed light weight (25-30 kg/m 3 ) And mechanical flexibility (94-95% compression recovery), which is related to the retention of the porous structure.

Experimental example 7 Anisotropic Properties of polyimide foam of the invention
1. Experimental method
The copolyfoam of example 2 and the blended foam of example 5 were taken and the microstructure and mechanical properties of the cell growth direction and the perpendicular cell growth direction were measured, respectively. The foams of examples 1 to 6 were taken and compared for heat insulating properties in the cell growth direction and in the direction perpendicular to the cell growth direction using a thermal constant analyzer and a thermal infrared imager.
2. Experimental results
As shown in fig. 3, the microstructure in the cell growth direction (vertical direction) exhibited a regular porous nearly spherical morphology, while the microstructure in the vertical cell growth direction (horizontal direction) exhibited an aligned ellipsoidal stripe structure. The mechanism of this phenomenon is ascribed to the "bottom-up" foaming behavior of the precursor powder during rapid microwave foaming. Furthermore, the anisotropic microstructure of the foam results in significant anisotropic compression properties in both directions. The compressive strength in the cell growth direction is about 1.5 to 3 times that in the perpendicular cell growth direction, for example, the compressive strength @10% in the cell growth direction of example 5 is 99.09KPa, and the compressive strength @10% in the perpendicular cell growth direction is only 33.54KPa. Although the compressive strength of the foam in the vertical cell growth direction was low, it had a high mechanical flexibility in the vertical cell growth direction, for example, the compression recovery in example 5 in the vertical cell growth was 98.48%. As shown in FIG. 2D, the thermal conductivity in the vertical cell growth direction is 0.028 to 0.029W/mK, which is lower than that in the cell growth direction (0.031 to 0.033W/mK), showing particularly excellent heat insulating properties. After the foam samples in different directions are placed on a preheating platform with the temperature fluctuation of 200 ℃ for 30 minutes, the top surface temperature of the foam cells in the growth direction is about 60 ℃, and the top surface temperature of the foam cells in the vertical growth direction is about 55 ℃, further showing that the polyimide foam has excellent anisotropic heat insulation performance and can realize heat protection and infrared stealth. The ellipsoidal strip-shaped structure perpendicular to the growth direction of the cells effectively inhibits heat conduction, so that the heat insulation performance is enhanced, and the regular porous nearly spherical structure in the growth direction of the cells is easy to transfer heat, so that heat accumulation is reduced. In conclusion, compared with polyimide foam in the prior literature and patent, the high-performance high-temperature-resistant heat-insulation polyimide foam disclosed by the invention has lower heat conductivity, and meanwhile, the oriented porous foam has wide application prospects in the fields of heat protection and infrared stealth.
The polyimide foam has excellent anisotropic property and can further enrich application scenes.
