Description

Procédé de déliantage d’une préforme fibreuseProcess for debinding a fibrous preform

L’invention concerne un procédé de déliantage d’une préforme fibreuse mettant en œuvre une alternance de phases de dissolution et de circulation d’un gaz comprimé, afin d’améliorer l’élimination du liant, ainsi qu’un procédé de fabrication d’une pièce en matériau composite associé.The invention relates to a process for debinding a fibrous preform implementing an alternation of phases of dissolution and circulation of a compressed gas, in order to improve the elimination of the binder, as well as a process for manufacturing a part made of associated composite material.

On connait le brevet US10994446 qui divulgue le déliantage d’une préforme fibreuse par dissolution d’un liant thermoplastique dans un solvant avant introduction du matériau de matrice. Cette solution permet de fabriquer, avec un coût de production réduit, des pièces en matériau composite à propriétés mécaniques améliorées. Il est néanmoins possible de perfectionner encore davantage les propriétés mécaniques de ces pièces.Patent US10994446 is known, which discloses the debinding of a fibrous preform by dissolving a thermoplastic binder in a solvent before introducing the matrix material. This solution makes it possible to manufacture, with a reduced production cost, parts in composite material with improved mechanical properties. It is nevertheless possible to further improve the mechanical properties of these parts.

L’invention concerne un procédé d’élimination d’un liant d’une préforme fibreuse comprenant une pluralité de fibres imprégnées par le liant et destinée à la fabrication d’une pièce en matériau composite, comprenant au moins :
- une première phase d’élimination du liant par dissolution,
- une phase de désagrégation d’amas du liant résiduels, après la première phase d’élimination, par circulation de gaz comprimé dans la préforme fibreuse, et
- une deuxième phase d’élimination du liant par dissolution après la phase de désagrégation.The invention relates to a process for removing a binder from a fiber preform comprising a plurality of fibers impregnated with the binder and intended for the manufacture of a part made of composite material, comprising at least:
- a first phase of elimination of the binder by dissolution,
- a phase of disintegration of residual binder clusters, after the first elimination phase, by circulation of compressed gas in the fibrous preform, and
- a second phase of elimination of the binder by dissolution after the disintegration phase.

Les inventeurs ont constaté que des zones très chargées en liant (amas de liant résiduels) peuvent subsister après une première dissolution du liant par le solvant et peuvent entraver localement l’introduction du matériau de matrice. Cela aboutit à une pièce ayant des porosités résiduelles locales et donc des propriétés mécaniques qui peuvent être améliorées. La phase de désagrégation des amas de liant résiduels met en œuvre un gaz comprimé qui circule facilement dans l’ensemble de la porosité de la préforme pour fragmenter les amas de liant résiduels et faciliter ainsi leur élimination subséquente par dissolution. L’invention permet ainsi de réduire la porosité résiduelle de la pièce composite obtenue au final et, par conséquent, d’améliorer ses propriétés mécaniques. Il s’agit également d’une solution qui peut être mise en place dans le moule dans lequel l’introduction du matériau de matrice est effectuée, et donc qui s’intègre facilement à la gamme de fabrication.The inventors have observed that zones heavily loaded with binder (lumps of residual binder) may remain after the binder has been dissolved by the solvent for the first time and may locally hinder the introduction of the matrix material. This results in a part having local residual porosities and therefore mechanical properties which can be improved. The phase of disaggregation of the residual binder clusters uses a compressed gas which circulates easily throughout the porosity of the preform to fragment the residual binder clusters and thus facilitate their subsequent elimination by dissolution. The invention thus makes it possible to reduce the residual porosity of the composite part obtained in the end and, consequently, to improve its mechanical properties. It is also a solution that can be implemented in the mold in which the introduction of the matrix material is carried out, and therefore easily integrated into the manufacturing range.

Dans un exemple de réalisation, le procédé comprend en outre une deuxième phase de désagrégation d’amas du liant résiduels, après la deuxième phase d’élimination, par circulation de gaz comprimé dans la préforme fibreuse, et une troisième phase d’élimination du liant par dissolution après la deuxième phase de désagrégation.In an exemplary embodiment, the method further comprises a second phase of disaggregation of residual binder clusters, after the second elimination phase, by circulation of compressed gas in the fibrous preform, and a third phase of elimination of the binder by dissolution after the second phase of disintegration.

Une telle caractéristique permet de réduire davantage encore la porosité résiduelle de la pièce obtenue et donc d’améliorer davantage encore ses propriétés mécaniques.Such a characteristic makes it possible to further reduce the residual porosity of the part obtained and therefore to further improve its mechanical properties.

De manière générale, le procédé peut comprendre, après la deuxième phase d’élimination, une succession de plusieurs phases additionnelles de désagrégation d’amas du liant résiduels qui sont chacune suivies d’une phase additionnelle d’élimination par dissolution.In general, the method may comprise, after the second elimination phase, a succession of several additional phases of disintegration of residual binder clusters which are each followed by an additional phase of elimination by dissolution.

Dans un exemple de réalisation, le gaz comprimé est de l’air comprimé.In an exemplary embodiment, the compressed gas is compressed air.

Une telle caractéristique permet avantageusement de simplifier la solution technique.Such a characteristic advantageously makes it possible to simplify the technical solution.

Dans un exemple de réalisation, une pression du gaz comprimé circulant dans la préforme est supérieure ou égale à 1,5 bar, par exemple comprise entre 1,5 bar et 3 bar.In an exemplary embodiment, a pressure of the compressed gas circulating in the preform is greater than or equal to 1.5 bar, for example between 1.5 bar and 3 bar.

Une telle caractéristique participe à optimiser l’élimination des amas de liant résiduels.Such a feature contributes to optimizing the elimination of residual binder clusters.

Dans un exemple de réalisation, les fibres de la préforme sont en matériau céramique, par exemple en oxyde comme de l’alumine ou de la mullite. On ne sort toutefois pas du cadre de l’invention si les fibres sont en carbure ou nitrure, par exemple en carbure de silicium. On peut encore mettre en œuvre une préforme en fibres en carbone.In an exemplary embodiment, the fibers of the preform are made of ceramic material, for example of oxide such as alumina or mullite. However, it is not beyond the scope of the invention if the fibers are made of carbide or nitride, for example silicon carbide. It is also possible to implement a carbon fiber preform.

L’invention vise également un procédé de fabrication d’une pièce en matériau composite, comprenant au moins la mise en œuvre d’un procédé tel que décrit plus haut afin d’obtenir une préforme déliantée, et l’introduction d’une composition d’imprégnation dans la porosité de la préforme fibreuse déliantée afin de former une matrice dans la porosité de celle-ci.The invention also relates to a process for manufacturing a part made of composite material, comprising at least the implementation of a process as described above in order to obtain a debinded preform, and the introduction of a composition of impregnation in the pores of the debinded fibrous preform in order to form a matrix in the pores thereof.

Dans un exemple de réalisation, la matrice est une matrice céramique, par exemple en oxyde comme de l’alumine ou de la mullite. Selon une variante, la matrice peut être d’un autre type comme un nitrure ou carbure, par exemple le carbure de silicium. La matrice peut encore être organique selon une autre variante.In an exemplary embodiment, the matrix is a ceramic matrix, for example made of oxide such as alumina or mullite. According to a variant, the matrix can be of another type such as a nitride or carbide, for example silicon carbide. The matrix can still be organic according to another variant.

Dans un exemple de réalisation, la pièce est une pièce de turbomachine.In an exemplary embodiment, the part is a turbomachine part.

L’invention vise également un système pour la mise en œuvre d’un procédé d’élimination du liant tel que décrit plus haut, comprenant au moins :
- un moule définissant une chambre destinée à recevoir la préforme fibreuse à délianter,
- un ensemble en communication avec la chambre, ledit ensemble comprenant au moins (i) un dispositif d’introduction de solvant du liant en communication avec une première entrée du moule, et (ii) un dispositif d’introduction de gaz comprimé en communication avec une deuxième entrée du moule, identique ou distincte de la première entrée, et
