  • PPTC is an overcurrent protection device with positive temperature coefficient characteristics. Its function is to be connected in series in the circuit. When the circuit current is normal, the PPTC is in a low resistance state. When the circuit is short-circuited or overloaded, the PPTC transitions to a high-impedance state, thus the circuit Fast, accurate limits and protections are made, and when troubleshooting, the PPTC automatically returns to a low-impedance state.
  • PPTC components For low-resistance PPTC components, there are two main types of PPTC materials currently in use.
  • the first type is metal-based (such as nickel powder, copper powder, etc.) PPTC material, metal-based PPTC components have low resistance, easy processing, etc., but metal-based PPTC materials are prone to oxidation during production and subsequent use, resulting in The increase in resistance of the PPTC component causes the PPTC component to fail (keeping current is reduced).

  • carbides and metal powders can be used as conductive materials to achieve low electrical resistance. Ultra-low initial resistance can be obtained with metal powder as the conductive powder.
  • Ultra-low resistivity PPTC sheets (resistivity less than 200 ⁇ cm) can be obtained by blending nickel powder Inco255 with conductive powder (nickel powder volume ratio of 40%) and polyethylene, and the processing property is excellent. During the extrusion process, the size and morphology of the powder will change greatly.
  • Nickel powder Inco255 is a tree before processing The dendritic structure is processed into a spherical structure due to the softness of nickel powder. Nickel powder may oxidize during processing, storage, and use, resulting in increased resistance of the PPTC device. Although the coating of the exposed area of the chip is shielded from oxygen by using an excellent coating of oxygen barrier, the oxidation of the metal powder can be prevented, but the process of coating the coating is complicated, and the device that is not perfectly coated is difficult to detect.

  • the resistivity of the conductive powder can be controlled by adjusting the size distribution of the conductive powder, wherein it is surprisingly found that a wider size distribution is more advantageous for obtaining a lower average size.

Particle size.
  • the physical meaning of D 50 is that the particle size is larger than 50% of the particles, and the particles smaller than it also account for 50%.
  • the D 50 is also called the median diameter or the median diameter.
  • the surface morphology of the conductive powder also has a significant influence on the fluidity of the carbide powder and the processing property upon compounding with the polymer, and when the spherical-like conductive powder is selected, compared with the non-spherical carbide It can significantly improve the processing performance, and under the same processing conditions, can increase the filling amount of the conductive powder, thereby reducing the electrical resistance of the PPTC sheet.

Description

导电聚合物组合物、导电聚合物片材、电气器件以及它们的制备方法 技术领域

背景技术
PPTC是具有正温度系数特征的过流保护器件,其作用为串联在电路中,当电路电流正常时,PPTC处于低阻状态,当电路发生短路或者过载时,PPTC跃迁至高阻状态,从而对电路进行快速,准确的限制和保护,当故障排除后,PPTC自动恢复至低阻状态。
现代电子产业的发展,对PPTC元器件的要求也越来越高,小型化、低电阻化、性能稳定化是PPTC元器件发展的趋势。对于低电阻PPTC元器件,目前使用的PPTC材料主要有两大类。第一类为金属基(如镍粉,铜粉等)PPTC材料,金属基PPTC元器件具有低电阻,易加工等优点,但金属基PPTC材料在生产加工以及后续使用过程中易发生氧化,导致PPTC元器件电阻升高造成PPTC元器件失效(保持电流降低)。第二类为碳化物基(如碳化钛,碳化钨等)PPTC材料,金属碳化物基PPTC元器件具有低电阻,在空气中稳定(在空气中不易氧化)的优点,但碳化物基PPTC材料加工性能差,生产出质量稳定且超低电阻(电阻率低于200uΩ·cm)的PPTC仍具有较大的挑战。

具体实施方式
如上所述,本发明旨在提供加工性能优异的、具有空气稳定性的超低电阻PPTC材料,及其制备方法,以及用其制备的PPTC片材和PPTC器件。
PPTC器件是将PPTC片材(通过导电粉与半结晶聚合物复合共混,造粒,挤出加工获得)在辐照后冲片,焊接组装而成。为了获得低电阻PPTC器件,导电粉末的选择非常关键。
导电炭黑,碳化物粉及金属粉是PPTC的常用导电粉末,他们的粉末电阻率分别为~1.0×10-3ohm·cm~1.0×10-5ohm·cm和~1.0×10-6ohm·cm。基于电阻率数据,碳化物和金属粉作为导电材料可以获得低电阻。以金属粉作为导电粉末可以获得超低的初始电阻。
以镍粉Inco255为导电粉末(镍粉体积比40%)和聚乙烯共混可以获得超低电阻率的PPTC片材(电阻率低于200μΩ·cm),其加工性能优异。在挤出加工过程中,粉末的尺寸及形貌会发生较大的改变。镍粉Inco255在加工前为树 枝状结构,因镍粉软而加工后成为类球形结构。镍粉在加工、储存及使用过程中可能会氧化,从而导致PPTC器件电阻升高。虽然采用氧气阻隔优异的涂料对芯片暴露区域进行涂覆以隔绝氧气,可以防止金属粉体氧化,但涂料涂覆的工艺复杂,未能完美包覆的器件难以检测。
过渡金属碳化物具有极高的熔点,低的摩擦系数,化学惰性,抗氧化和良好的导热和导电性,其在电子工业的应用越来越广泛,并逐渐体现其重要的作用。采用碳化物材料(如碳化钛,碳化钨等)与通用聚烯烃(如高密度聚乙烯HDPE、低密度聚乙烯LDPE,乙烯乙烯乙酸酯EVA等)复合,可以得到在空气中稳定的PPTC。但普通碳化物为多角状(如碳化钛),其硬度高(碳化物的硬度大约为镍材的10倍),在干混、挤出及层压过程中会出现加工困难,表现为螺杆和炮筒磨损严重,成品厚度难于控制,且粉末在树脂基体中局部分散不均匀,导致成品间批次性差异大,性能不稳定。
根据本发明的一个实施例,通过调节导电粉末的尺寸分布,可以控制导电粉末的电阻率大小,其中出人意料地发现,在平均尺寸基本相同的情况下,较宽的尺寸分布更有利于获得较低的电阻。例如,D100/D50>6可获得超低的电阻率(低于200μΩ·cm),其中D100表示最大粒径,D50表示导电粉末中的累计粒度分布百分比达到50%时所对应的粒径。D50的物理意义是粒径大于它的颗粒占50%,小于它的颗粒也占50%,D50也叫中位径或中值粒径。
根据本发明的一个实施例,导电粉末的表面形貌对碳化物粉末的流动性以及与聚合物复合时的加工性能也有显著影响,当选取类球形导电粉末时,与非球形的碳化物相比,可以显著提高加工性能,而且在同等加工条件下,可以提高导电粉末的填充量,从而降低PPTC片材的电阻。
根据本发明的一个实施例,对于过渡金属碳化物而言,电阻的大小与碳化物中碳含量有直接的关系。在颗粒尺寸分布类似的条件下,具有较低碳含量的碳化物电阻率偏低。例如,碳化钨中碳含量在T.C.<6.0%时,特别地,T.C.的含量在5.90%左右时可得到低的电阻。而T.C.>6.0%时,电阻率偏高。
基于上述发现,本发明提供了一种导电聚合物组合物、导电聚合物片材、电气器件以及它们的制备方法。
具体而言,根据本发明的一个方面,提供一种导电聚合物组合物,包含体积比为65∶35至35∶65的聚合物和导电粉末,其中所述聚合物包括至少一种选自聚烯烃类、至少一种烯烃与至少一种可与其共聚合的非烯烃单体的共聚物和可热成型含氟聚合物的半结晶聚合物,所述导电粉末包括过渡金属碳化物、过渡金属碳硅化物、过渡金属碳铝化物和过渡金属碳锡化物中的至少一种,并且所述导电粉末的尺寸分布满足:20>D100/D50>6。
根据本发明的一个实施例的组合物的聚合物包括至少一种选自聚烯烃类、至少一种烯烃与至少一种可与其共聚合的非烯烃单体的共聚物和可热成型含氟聚合物的半结晶聚合物,其中聚烯烃类包括聚丙烯、聚乙烯(包括高密度聚乙烯、中密度聚乙烯、低密度聚乙烯和线型低密度聚乙烯)、或乙烯和丙烯的共聚物;所述共聚物包括乙烯-醋酸乙烯共聚物、乙烯-乙烯醇共聚物、乙烯-丙烯酸甲酯共聚物、乙烯-丙烯酸乙酯共聚物、乙烯-丙烯酸共聚物、乙烯-丙烯酸丁酯共聚物;所述可热成型含氟聚合物包括聚偏氟乙烯,和乙烯/四氟乙烯共聚物等。
根据本发明的一个实施例的导电粉末包括过渡金属碳化物、过渡金属碳硅化物、过渡金属碳铝化物和过渡金属碳锡化物中的至少一种。例如碳化钛、碳化钨、碳硅化钛、碳铝化钛、碳锡化钛等。碳硅化钛、碳铝化钛、碳锡化钛等具有与碳化钨类似的性质。
上述导电粉末优选为类球形形状。此处,术语“类球形”包括理想球形以及与其类似的形状。在本发明中,术语“类球形”与“球形”可以互换使用。
可以采用多种方法获得本发明的具有类球形形状的导电粉末,包括但不限于离心旋转法,旋转雾化法,离心旋转冷凝法,感应或电阻加热球化法,等离子体球化法,气体雾化法等。
根据本发明的一个实施例,导电粉末的平均颗粒大小可以为0.1至50μm。在一些实施方案中,导电粉末的尺寸满足:D50<5μm,D100<50μm。
为了获得超低的电阻率(低于200μΩ·cm),根据本发明的一个实施例的导电粉末优选具有较宽的尺寸分布。优选地,D100/D50>6。D100/D50的上限值可以为20,优选10。
当将两种导电粉末混合,以满足D100/D50>6时,本发明也得到类似的结论。
另外,由于过渡金属一般具有可变价态,在其碳化物中,可以存在MxC相(M表示过渡金属,x大于1),这种MxC相的存在会降低碳化物中的总碳含量。以碳化钨(WC)为例,纯WC的理论总碳含量为6.18%,但WC物相中通常含有W2C(W2C是亚稳态相),WC中含有少量W2C时总碳含量会降低。本发明发现,在颗粒尺寸分布类似的条件下,具有较低碳含量的碳化物电阻率偏低。例如,碳化钨中碳含量在T.C.<6.0%时(其中T.C.是以质量计的100%×C/WC),特别地,T.C.的含量在5.90%左右时可得到低的电阻。而T.C.>6.0%时,电阻率偏高。对碳化钛(TiC)来讲,按化学计量比总碳含量应该为20.03%,而当总碳含量在19.0~19.5间时,电阻会更低。所以,总碳含量比按化学计量比低3%到5%有利于获得低电阻体系。因此,在本发明中,优选过渡金属碳化物中的碳含量比化学计量比的过渡金属碳化物MC(M为过渡金属元素)的理论总碳含量低2%至5%,优选低3%至5%。
自由碳(F.C.),含量要尽量低,一般要求F.C.<0.3%,最好低于0.05%。
本发明中,为了使导电粉末能够均匀地分散在聚合物中并且确保一定的低电阻,聚合物与导电粉末的体积比可以为65∶35至35∶65,优选60∶40至40∶60,更优选55∶45至45∶55,最优选聚合物和导电粉末以大致相等的体积比混合。。
根据本发明的一个实施例的导电聚合物组合物可以包含除上述聚合物和导电粉末之外的组分,例如,无机填料或其他聚合物材料,以及加工助剂和润滑剂等添加剂,前提是不损害本发明的导电聚合物组合物的低电阻和加工性 能。
本发明还提供一种导电聚合物片材,其通过本发明的导电聚合物组合物熔融挤出成型而获得。
根据本发明的一个实施例的导电聚合物片材可以用作PPTC片材,用于制备PPTC器件。
具体地,可以通过将根据本发明一个实施例的导电聚合物组合物的各种组分复合共混,造粒,然后挤出加工,而获得导电聚合物片材。
优选地,根据本发明的一个实施例的导电聚合物片材的电阻率低于200μΩ·cm。
本发明还提供一种电气器件,其包括第一电极、第二电极和夹在第一、第二电极之间的导电聚合物层,所述导电聚合物层由本发明的导电聚合物组合物形成。
优选地,上述导电聚合物层可以由本发明的导电聚合物片材形成,并且进一步地,导电聚合物片材的电阻率低于200μΩ·cm。
根据本发明的一个实施例的导电聚合物组合物可用于制备电气器件,例如电路保护器件,加热器,电阻器,和热指示器。虽然电路保护器件可具有任何形状,但是尤其有用的电路保护器件包括两个层状的电极,优选金属箔电极,和夹在电极之间的导电聚合物层组成。
通常器件包括引线,该引线被紧固例如焊接或熔接到电极。该引线适合于插入到印刷电路板中或适合于表面安装在印刷电路板上。电路保护器件尤其适合于例如电池保护的应用,其中引线以条带或带的形式存在并且电连接到例如电池端子的基板(如图8A所示)。
当根据本发明的一个实施例的电气器件用作如电路保护器件时,所述电气器件是具有正温度系数特征的过电流保护器件,并且过电流保护器件在非保护状态下(此时,器件处于正常工作温度)的电阻率低于200μΩ·cm。
根据本发明的一个实施例的电气器件尤其适用于点焊及无铅回流焊接工艺。
根据本发明的另一方面,提供一种用于获得空气稳定性超低电阻的正温度系数聚合物材料的方法,所述方法包括将体积比为65∶35至35∶65的聚合物和导电粉末共混,所述聚合物包括至少一种选自聚烯烃类、至少一种烯烃与至少一种可与其共聚合的非烯烃单体的共聚物和可热成型含氟聚合物的半结晶聚合物,所述导电粉末包括过渡金属碳化物、过渡金属碳硅化物、过渡金属碳铝化物和过渡金属碳锡化物中的至少一种,并且所述导电粉末的尺寸分布满足:20>D100/D50>6。
根据本发明一个实施例的上述方法中使用的聚合物和导电粉末与在本发明的导电聚合物组合物中所述的聚合物和导电粉末相同。
其中,导电粉末优选是类球形的。球形导电粉末通过离心旋转法,旋转雾化法,离心旋转冷凝法,感应或电阻加热球化法,等离子体球化法,或气体雾化法制备。
导电粉末的尺寸分布优选满足:20>D100/D50>6。这样的尺寸分布可以气流筛选方式获得,例如对于同一种碳化钨粉,可以采用旋风分离器将碳化钨粉体分成不同尺寸及尺寸分布的产品。此外,也可以通过将两种碳化钨粉按照一定的比例复配,来获得D100/D50>6的尺寸分布。
另外,对于过渡金属碳化物而言,可以通过控制其中的碳含量,来获得更低的电阻率。以碳化钨(WC)为例,碳原子嵌入钨金属晶格间隙,在不破坏原有金属晶格的前提下形成填隙固溶体,其给予碳化钨以良好的导电性。纯WC的理论总碳含量为6.18%,但WC物相中通常含有W2C(W2C是亚稳态相),WC中含有少量W2C时总碳含量会降低。而在颗粒尺寸分布类似的条件下,具有较低碳含量的碳化物电阻率偏低。例如,碳化钨中碳含量在T.C.<6.0%时可得到低的电阻,而T.C.>6.0%时,电阻率偏高。对碳化钨钛(TiC)来讲,按 化学计量比总碳含量应该为20.03%,而总碳含量在19.0~19.5间时,电阻会更低。因此,在本发明中,可以通过控制过渡金属碳化物中的碳含量,使其比化学计量比的过渡金属碳化物MC(M为过渡金属元素)的理论总碳含量低2%-5%,来获得更低的电阻率。
根据本发明一个实施例,聚合物和导电粉末的共混可以通过以下方式实现:在高速混合机中物理共混,或者在挤出机(包括双螺杆挤出机和往复式单螺杆挤出机)中熔融共混挤出。在熔融共混挤出时,熔融共混温度根据所用的聚合物的具体种类而定。
通过上述共混方法,可以获得导电粉末均匀分布在聚合物中的聚合物材料。
本发明还涉及一种制备具有正温度系数特征的空气稳定性过电流保护器件的方法,所述方法包括将通过上述方法获得的正温度系数聚合物材料挤出成型,并且与第一电极和第二电极层压。
根据本发明一个实施例的制备过电流保护器件的方法还可以包括在层压后进行切片的步骤,以及冲片和切割成型等后装配步骤。
图7显示了制备PPTC器件的一般工艺流程。首先,将作为导电粉末的过渡金属碳化物分级,例如以气流筛选方式进行分级,获得满足D100/D50>6尺寸分布的球形碳化物粉末。然后,将该碳化物粉末与聚合物粉末混合(干混),获得共混粉末。将该共混粉末在双螺杆或单螺杆作用下熔融共混挤出造粒。将获得的颗粒材料挤出加工成型,形成片材,并且与电极材料层压。然后,经切片,再经冲片和切割成型等后装配步骤,获得PPTC器件,例如PPTC芯片。
根据本发明的一个实施例,通过使导电粉末具有较宽的尺寸分布,例如20>D100/D50>6,可以在平均尺寸基本相同的情况下获得超低的电阻率(低于200μΩ·em)。另外,通过选取球形导电粉末,克服了普通过渡金属碳化物难以加 工且在聚合物树脂基体中分散不均匀的问题,可以显著提高导电粉末的加工性能,并且可以提高导电粉末的填充量,从而降低PPTC片材的电阻。而且,对于过渡金属碳化物而言,可以通过控制过渡金属碳化物中的碳含量,使其比化学计量比的过渡金属碳化物MC的理论总碳含量低2%-5%,来获得更低的电阻率。因此,本发明能够提供加工性能优异的、具有空气稳定性的超低电阻PPTC材料,采用这样的PPTC材料,可以制备无需氧气阻隔涂层就可在空气稳定的超低电阻PPTC器件。
具体实施例
以下通过举例说明的方式示出若干具体实施例。应当理解,在不脱离本发明的范围或精神的情况下,设想了其他实施例并可以进行修改。因此,以下的具体实施例不具有限制性意义。

将按体积比计为55%的HDPE(高密度聚乙烯,供应商:Marflex)和45%的碳化钨粉(平均颗粒尺寸为3.58μm,D100/D50=6.30,T.C.=5.91,供应商:成都核八五七新材料有限公司),经共混熔融挤出,覆上电极,加工成PPTC片材(电阻率为170μΩ·cm),制成2.8mm(宽)x3.6mm(长)x0.33mm(高)的芯片,并组装成适合于点焊或无铅回流焊的器件(如图8A),测量其初始电阻为8.5mohm,并且测量电阻-温度(RT)曲线。如图8B所示,在三次RT曲线中,RT的纵坐标值基本保持恒定,同时发生电阻转折的温度点也基本保持恒定,表明本实施例样品的RT曲线的重复性好。
在不偏离本发明的范围和精神的前提下,对本发明的各种修改和更改对于本领域技术人员将是显而易见的。应当理解,本发明并非意图受本文所给出的示例性实施例和实例的不当限制,这些实例和实施例仅以举例的方式提供,本发明的范围旨在仅受所附权利要求的限制。
