Definitions
- the present invention relates to a polyacrylonitrile-based graphite fiber, a textile fabric containing the polyacrylonitrile-based graphite fiber, a method for the manufacture of the graphite fiber and the textile fabric and its use as battery felts used in redox-flow batteries or NaS batteries, for carbon fiber papers used as gas diffusion layers in fuel cells and electrolysis cells, in satellite structure parts, in heat spreaders in the area of thermal management, as electrode material or for current collectors in desalination units, batteries, preferably redox-flow batteries, LiS batteries and Li-ion batteries, preferably as anode material in lithium-ion battery applications, as conductive filler for polymers, as a catalyst carrier, as additive for friction materials, preferably in brake pads or brake discs typically for aircraft and racing cars, wet friction, preferably for clutches, and for deicing applications, as filter material, for electromagnetic shielding, for flash protection and as material for electrical contacts.
- Graphite fibers compared to carbon fibers are characterized by their high grade of graphitization resulting in the molecular structure and microstructure of graphite.
- the microstructure of graphite is defined by the crystallographic parameters (i) interlayer spacing (d002 distance) which is the distance between adjacent molecular layers of covalently bonded sp 2 -hybridized carbon and (ii) mean crystallite size (Lc) which is a measure of the extension of the perfect graphite structure within a material. In a perfect graphite single crystal the d002 distance is 0.3354 nm and Lc corresponds to the size of the macroscopic crystal.
- d002 distance of a carbon fiber which is based on polyacrylonitrile is about 0.345 nm and Lc is about 3 nm after carbonization at 1400°C, one can talk about a graphite fiber, if the d002 distance is 0.344 or lower accompanied with an increase of Lc to 12 nm or higher.
- Graphite fibers feature high electrical and thermal conductivity rather than, for example, high tensile strength as carbon fibers do. Thus, the focus of graphite fibers lies on applications requiring suitable thermo-electrical properties rather than good mechanical properties. Graphite fibers can, for example, be obtained by
- mesophase pitch-based carbon fibers graphitization of mesophase pitch-based carbon fibers. That means, carbon fibers based on mesophase pitch are heated to a sufficiently high temperature, typically above 2,200°C, so that the apriori amorphous carbon converts into a graphitic structure.
- Mesophase pitch-based carbon fibers are very expensive.
- mesophase pitch-based carbon fibers cost about 100 times more.
- Polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fibers do not graphitize as good as mesophase pitch-based carbon fibers even if they are heated up to 2,200°C or above.
- the d002 distance and the Lc of a polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber which is carbonized at a temperature of 2,500°C are about 0.343 nm and 5 nm respectively.
- JP2014167039 (A) a catalytic graphitization method is described, wherein the activation energy of the carbonization reaction can be lowered so that the respective carbon fiber carbonized at lower temperatures has the same crystallinity as a typical polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber carbonized at higher temperatures.
- the method includes a copolymeri- zation of polyacrylonitrile with an organometallic compound of a group VIII metal. The so obtained copolymer is then used as a precursor polymer in the known carbon fiber production method. While the performance of a copolymerization method with an organometallic compound is a rather expensive method and the reached crystallinity of the resulting carbon fiber still not exceeds that of typical
- the object of the present invention to provide a graphite fiber with a high grade of graphitization which can be manufactured by a simple and cost efficient method.
- the present invention provides a polyacrylonitrile-based graphite fiber, wherein the material of the graphite fiber exhibits an interlayer spacing (d002 distance) of below 0.344 nm, preferably below 0.341 nm and a mean crystallite size (Lc) of at least 12 nm, preferably at least 20 nm.
- d002 distance interlayer spacing
- Lc mean crystallite size
- the graphite fiber of the present invention has a high thermal conductivity of about 1 100 W/m-K.
- the electrical conductivity is also very high compared to standard carbon fibers.
- the graphite fiber of the present invention is less cost-intensive than mesophase-pitch based graphite fibers, since it is based on polyacrylonitrile.
- polyacrylonitrile-based means that the graphite fiber is obtained by starting with polyacrylonitrile as the base material for the respective precursor fiber as it is analogously the case with polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fibers which are well known in the art.
- polyacrylonitrile-based also includes co-polymers of polyacrylonitrile with other monomers.
- the graphite fiber of the present invention is not limited with regard to any coatings or the like being present, for example, on the surface of the fiber. Any such additional material is not encompassed by the expression "the material of the graphite fiber".
- the "material of the graphite fiber” rather refers to the graphitic material based on polyacrylonitrile. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention the material of the polyacrylonitrile-based graphite fiber exhibits an interlayer spacing (d002 distance) of below 0.341 nm, preferably below 0.339 nm after being heated to a temperature of at least 2,500°C for 30 minutes.
- the material of the graphite fiber exhibits an interlayer spacing (d002 distance) of below 0.339 nm, preferably below 0.337 nm after being heated to a temperature of at least 3,000°C for 30 minutes.
- the material of the fiber is, thus, getting close to the ideal graphite structure featuring high thermal and electrical conductivity.
- the frictional properties are advantageous, in particular for applications like as friction materials in clutches, wet-friction, brake discs and brake pads.
- the material of the polyacrylonitrile-based graphite fiber exhibits a mean crystallite size (Lc) of at least 12 nm, preferably at least 20 nm after being heated to a temperature of at least 2,500°C for 30 minutes. Even more preferably, the material of the graphite fiber exhibits a mean crystallite size (Lc) of at least 20 nm, preferably at least 30 nm after being heated to a temperature of at least 3,000°C for 30 minutes.
