1. Process for treating metallised sheet-form textiles with polymers for the purpose of increasing the microwave reflection in the frequency range of 1 to 1,000 GHz, characterised in that the metallised sheet-form textile is subjected to space-filling impregnation with a polymer having a dielectric loss factor tg delta in the microwave region of less than 0.01.

Description

Textile Flächengebilde, die stromlos naßchemisch nach DE-AS 27 43 768 metallisiert worden sind, besitzen gemäß DE-OS 28 47 485 selbst bei geringer Stärke der Metallschicht gute Reflektionseigenschaften für Mikrowellen. Die unabhängig von der Metallisierung erhalten gebliebenen textilen Eigenschaften, insbesondere das geringe Gewicht und die hohe textilelastische Flexibilität ermöglichen spezielle Anwendungen in der Radar-Technik, beispielsweise bei der Herstellung von zusammenfaltbaren Reflektoren für aktive und passive Strahler, ferner als radarreflektierendes Material im Bereich der Seenotrettung, insbesondere bei Reflektoren, Schwimmwesten, Dächern von Seenotrettungsinseln, Ölzeug usw. oder zur Unterstützung der Radar-Ortung in Fällen der Objekt- und Personen-Lokalisierung, beispielsweise bei Zelten, Fallschirmen, Rucksäcken, Anoraks usw.Textile fabrics which have been electrolessly wet-chemically metallized according to DE-AS 27 43 768 have, according to DE-OS 28 47 485, good reflection properties for microwaves even with a low thickness of the metal layer. The textile properties that have been preserved regardless of the metallization, in particular the low weight and the high textile elastic flexibility enable special applications in radar technology, for example in the manufacture of foldable reflectors for active and passive emitters, as well as radar reflecting material in the area of sea rescue, especially for reflectors, life jackets, roofs of lifeboat islands, oil tools etc. or to support radar detection in cases of object and person localization, e.g. tents, parachutes, backpacks, anoraks etc.

Mit metallisierten textilen Materialien lassen sich im allgemeinen Reflektionsverluste im Mikrowellengebiet von weniger als 5 bis 20 %, verglichen mit der einer ebenen Metallplatte erzielen. Wenn auch im allgemeinen eine Ortung solcher Gegenstände gut möglich ist, so treten doch insbesondere bei der Seenotrettung und da vor allem bei bewegter See, die selbst über eine verhältnismäßig gute Mikrowellenreflektionseigenschaft verfügt, Probleme auf, die es notwendig machen, die Reflektionsverluste der metallisierten textilen Materialien im Mikrowellengebiet noch weiter zu senken.With metallized textile materials, reflection losses in the microwave region can generally be less than 5 to 20% compared to that a flat metal plate. Although it is generally possible to locate such objects, problems arise in sea rescue and especially when the sea is moving, which itself has a relatively good microwave reflection property, which makes it necessary to avoid the reflection losses of the metallized textile materials in the microwave area even further.

Aus der bereits genannten DE-OS 28 47 485 ist weiterhin bekannt, daß die Reflektionsverluste nicht oder nur wenig schlechter werden, wenn das metallisierte Gewebe mit einem schützenden Überzug aus PVC, Gummi, Polyurethanlack oder Polyethylen versehen wird.From the already mentioned DE-OS 28 47 485 it is also known that the reflection losses do not or only slightly deteriorate if the metallized fabric is provided with a protective coating made of PVC, rubber, polyurethane lacquer or polyethylene.

Es wurde nun überraschenderweise gefunden, daß unter bestimmten Bedingungen das Imprägnieren der metallisierten textilen Flächengebilde mit Polymeren zu einer überraschenden Verminderung der Reflektionsverluste führt.It has now surprisingly been found that, under certain conditions, the impregnation of the metallized textile fabrics with polymers leads to a surprising reduction in the reflection losses.

Die Erfindung betrifft daher ein Verfahren zur Erhöhung der Mikrowellenreflektion metallisierter textiler Flächengebilde im Frequenzbereich von 1 bis 1000 GHz, das dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß man das metallisierte textile Flächengebilde raumerfüllend mit einem Polymer, dessen dielektrischer Verlustfaktor tg δ im Mikrowellenbereich unter 0,01 liegt, imprägniert.The invention therefore relates to a method for increasing the microwave reflection of metallized textile fabrics in the frequency range from 1 to 1000 GHz, which is characterized in that the metallized textile fabric is space-filling with a polymer whose dielectric loss factor tg δ in the microwave range is less than 0.01. impregnated.

Raumerfüllende Imprägnierung bedeutet in diesem Zusammenhang, daß der Zwischenraum zwischen Kett- und Schußfäden des metallisierten Gewebes von dem durch die Imprägnierung aufgebrachten Polymer möglichst vollständig ausgefüllt wird und darüber hinaus die metallisierten Kett- und Schußfäden mit einer Polymerschicht versehen werden, und zwar so daß bei einer mikroskopischen Aufnahme mit einem Vergrößerungsfaktor 104 im Verbund metallisierte Faser-Polymer keine Hohlräume festgestellt werden, die mehr als 10 %, vorzugsweise mehr als 5 %, der Querschnittsfläche ausmachen. Die Schichtdicke des auf die metallisierten Fasern aufgebrachten Polymers beträgt vorzugsweise maximal 10 % der Wellenlänge, insbesondere maximal 1 bis 3 % der Wellenlänge.In this context, space-filling impregnation means that the space between the warp and weft threads of the metallized Tissue is filled as completely as possible by the polymer applied by the impregnation and, in addition, the metallized warp and weft threads are provided with a polymer layer, so that no cavities are found in the composite metallized fiber-polymer with a microscopic image with a magnification factor of 10 4 which make up more than 10%, preferably more than 5%, of the cross-sectional area. The layer thickness of the polymer applied to the metallized fibers is preferably at most 10% of the wavelength, in particular at most 1 to 3% of the wavelength.

Vorzugsweise wird das durch Imprägnierung aufzubringende Polymer so ausgewählt, daß es den metallisierten Fasern wasserabstoßende Eigenschaften verleiht. Dies kann zu einer weiteren Verringerung der Reflektionsverluste, beispielsweise beim Einsatz im Rahmen der Seenotrettung, wo ein höchstmöglicher Kontrast zur ebenfalls relativ gut reflektierenden Seeoberfläche, insbesondere bei Wellengang, erwünscht ist, beitragen.Preferably, the polymer to be applied by impregnation is selected so that it imparts water-repellent properties to the metallized fibers. This can contribute to a further reduction in reflection losses, for example when used in the context of sea rescue, where the highest possible contrast to the relatively well reflecting surface of the lake is desired, especially in waves.

Die Imprägnierung mit dem Polymer wird vorzugsweise durch Behandlung mit einer Polymerlösung, mit einer Polymerdispersion oder einer Polymerschmelze durchgeführt, wobei sich im Einzelfall die Behandlungsmethode nach der Natur der Polymere richtet.The impregnation with the polymer is preferably carried out by treatment with a polymer solution, with a polymer dispersion or with a polymer melt, the treatment method depending on the nature of the polymers in individual cases.

Der Effekt der Verminderung der Reflektionsverluste als Folge der Imprägnierung ist insbesondere für hohe Frequenzen (kleine Wellenlängen) gut ausgeprägt. Erfahrungsgemäß nehmen die Reflektionsverluste mit fallender Wellenlänge aufgrund der endlichen Maschenweite der verwendeten Gewebe, Gestricke oder Vliese zu. Für eine gute Reflektion im Bereich der Millimeterwellen sind daher gut plane und vor allem dichte Gewebe, vorzugsweise Filamentgarngewebe mit sehr kleiner Maschenweite (möglichst unter 10 % der Wellenlänge), erforderlich. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Imprägnierung der metallisierten textilen Fasermaterialien wird hier eine weitere Verbesserung und die Ausdehnung des Anwendungsbereiches metallisierter textiler Reflektionsmaterialien auf Frequenzen oberhalb 100 GHz, bzw. den Einsatz grobmaschigerer und preiswerterer Gewebe bei Frequenzen im Bereich von ca. 10 bis 100 GHz, möglich.The effect of reducing the reflection losses as a result of the impregnation is particularly high Frequencies (small wavelengths) well developed. Experience has shown that the reflection losses increase with falling wavelength due to the finite mesh size of the woven, knitted or non-woven fabrics used. For a good reflection in the field of millimeter waves are therefore well plane and especially dense tissue, preferably filament g ewebe with very small mesh size (preferably less than 10% of the wavelength), is required. The impregnation of the metallized textile fiber materials according to the invention enables a further improvement and the expansion of the field of application of metallized textile reflection materials to frequencies above 100 GHz, or the use of coarser-meshed and cheaper fabrics at frequencies in the range from approximately 10 to 100 GHz.

Das Imprägnierungsmaterial kann gegebenenfalls zusätzliche Füllstoffe, zum Beispiel im sichtbaren Bereich erkennbare Färbungen mit Signal- und Warnfarben, enthalten, vorzugsweise solche mit niedrigen dielektrischen Verlusten, z.B. Aluminiumoxid oder Titandioxid. Das texile metallisierte Flächengebilde ist vorzugsweise mit Nickel metallisiert, jedoch kommen auch Kupfer und Gold als aufzubringende Metalle in Frage. Das textile Flächengebilde ist vorzugsweise ein Gewebe, Gestrick, Gewirk, Nadelfilz oder Vlies oder ist Papier. Der Metallüberzug weist vorzugsweise eine Schichtdicke von mindestens 0,05um auf. Im allgemeinen sind Metallschichtdicken von 0,1 bis 0,8µm zur Erzielung guter Reflektionswerte im Bereich von 0,01 bis über 100 GHz ausreichend. Die Metallschicht wird durch die erfindungsgemäße Imprägnierung gegenüber nichtbeschichteten Materialien vor mechanischer oder chemischer Schädigung besser geschützt. Als Fasermaterialien kommen native Fasern wie Baumwolle, Fasern aus organischen Polymeren wie Polyamid-, Polyester- und Polyacrylnitrilfasern sowie Glasfasern und Kohlenstoffasern in Frage, wobei die textilen Flächengebilde aus diesen Fasern vorzugsweise aus entsprechenden Filamentgarnen hergestellt werden. Vorzugsweise verwendet man Filamentgarngewebe aus den genannten Materialien.The impregnation material can optionally contain additional fillers, for example colorings with signal and warning colors which are visible in the visible region, preferably those with low dielectric losses, for example aluminum oxide or titanium dioxide. The textile metallized fabric is preferably metallized with nickel, but copper and gold are also suitable as metals to be applied. The textile fabric is preferably a woven fabric, knitted fabric, knitted fabric, needle felt or fleece or is paper. The metal coating preferably has a layer thickness of at least 0.05 µm. In general, metal layer thicknesses of 0.1 to 0.8 µm are used to achieve good reflection values in the range from 0.01 to over 100 GHz sufficient. The metal layer is better protected against mechanical or chemical damage by the impregnation according to the invention compared to non-coated materials. Suitable fiber materials are native fibers such as cotton, fibers made from organic polymers such as polyamide, polyester and polyacrylonitrile fibers as well as glass fibers and carbon fibers, the textile fabrics being made from these fibers preferably from appropriate filament yarns. Filament yarn fabrics made from the materials mentioned are preferably used.

Geeignete Polymere sind beispielsweise Polyethylen (tg δ = 0,0002), Polystyrol (tg δ = 0,00015), Polytetrafluorethylen (tg δ = 0,0001), Siliconharz (tg δ = 0,001) sowie Polyurethan, insbesondere Polyesterurethane (tg δ = 0,008). Unter diesen Materialien sind solche bevorzugt, deren Dielektrizitätskonstante über 2 liegt.Suitable polymers are, for example, polyethylene (tg δ = 0.0002), polystyrene (tg δ = 0.00015), polytetrafluoroethylene (tg δ = 0.0001), silicone resin (tg δ = 0.001) and polyurethane, in particular polyester urethanes (tg δ = 0.008). Preferred among these materials are those whose dielectric constant is above 2.

Unter tg δ wird der sogenannte Verlustfaktor verstanden. Es ist:
