Description
本願は、2021年3月26日に、日本に出願された特願2021-052932号に基づき優先権を主張し、その内容をここに援用する。 TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a carbon fiber bundle that can be easily handled during advanced processing even if the carbon fiber bundle has a large total fineness, and that yields a molded product in which the carbon fibers are uniformly distributed.
This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2021-052932 filed in Japan on March 26, 2021, the content of which is incorporated herein.
また、炭素繊維束を巻き取る際に、凹型に湾曲したガイドで幅を狭めるため厚さ斑が出やすい。 One of the causes is thought to be thickness unevenness in the width direction of carbon fiber bundles having a large total fineness. For carbon fiber bundles with a large total fineness, during the production process of the carbon fiber precursor fiber bundle, the firing process, the process of applying a sizing agent, etc., the adjacent process fiber bundles are prevented from contacting, entangling or sticking together. Therefore, it is necessary to restrict the width using a width restriction guide or the like. When passing through the width regulating guide, the fiber bundle is pushed from both sides, and unevenness in thickness tends to occur.
In addition, when the carbon fiber bundle is wound, unevenness in thickness tends to occur because the width is narrowed by the concavely curved guide.

In the process of applying the sizing agent, the fabric passes through the comb guide, dries with a large variation in thickness, and is wound up, so the variation in thickness remains large.

多数の炭素繊維束を製造する場合、隣接する繊維束との接触を避ける方向に拡げる事が好ましい。平均化部材によって、走行する繊維束を構成する単繊維が常に物理的な外力を付与されて、単繊維が繊維束内で位置を変えることで、カンチレバー値および貼り付き性が良好な炭素繊維束が得られる。 In the step (h), before winding the carbonized fiber bundle obtained in the step (g), the carbonized fiber bundle is widened using a carbonized fiber bundle averaging member, and the fiber bundle is Uniform thickness.
It is preferable that the averaging member applies an external force to the fiber bundle to widen the width of the fiber bundle, thereby loosening the single fibers so that the single fibers can be easily moved. Friction between the fiber and the metal member, air flow, vibration, or the like is used as a means for applying an external force to the single fiber.
When producing a large number of carbon fiber bundles, it is preferable to spread in a direction to avoid contact with adjacent fiber bundles. The averaging member constantly applies a physical external force to the single fibers that make up the running fiber bundle, and the single fibers change their positions within the fiber bundle, resulting in a carbon fiber bundle with a good cantilever value and sticking properties. is obtained.
こうすることで、繊維束が幅方向に広がり、単繊維同士がくっついているのがほぐされやすい。
前記棒は、炭素化繊維束が接触する面が平行になっていれば良い。また、前記棒の形状は、丸形状、四角形状等特に制限は無いが、炭素化繊維束が接触する面に角があると毛羽が発生しやすいので、曲面となっていて、面で接触することが好ましい。
面Aと面Bがそれぞれ1回は前記棒に接触することで繊維束がほぐされるので、厚さの変動率を低くしやすい。
繊維束がほぐされる点からすると、第1の棒は面Aが接触し、第2の棒は面Bが接触する様に、面A、面B、面A、面Bの順に交互に接触するのが好ましい。 In the method for producing a carbon fiber bundle of the present invention, the surface of the carbonized fiber bundle is A and a surface B opposite said surface A are each brought into contact with said bar one or more times.
By doing so, the fiber bundle spreads in the width direction, and the sticking of the single fibers is easily loosened.
It is sufficient for the rod to have parallel surfaces with which the carbonized fiber bundles come into contact. The shape of the rod is not particularly limited, such as a round shape or a square shape. is preferred.
Since the fiber bundle is loosened when the surface A and the surface B come into contact with the bar once, respectively, the variation rate of the thickness can be easily reduced.
From the point of view of loosening the fiber bundle, the first rod contacts the surface A and the second rod contacts the surface B, so that the surface A, the surface B, the surface A, and the surface B are alternately contacted in this order. is preferred.
前記平行な棒の隣あう棒同志の距離が15mm以上であれば、炭素化繊維束を通しやすく、50mm以下であれば幅を広げる効果が出やすい。
これらの観点から、前記平行な棒の隣あう棒同志の距離は17~45mmがより好ましく、19~40mmがさらに好ましい。 In the carbon fiber bundle manufacturing method of the present invention, it is preferable that the distance between adjacent parallel bars is 15 to 50 mm.
If the distance between the parallel bars adjacent to each other is 15 mm or more, the carbonized fiber bundle can be easily passed through, and if the distance is 50 mm or less, the effect of widening the width is likely to be obtained.
From these points of view, the distance between adjacent parallel bars is more preferably 17 to 45 mm, more preferably 19 to 40 mm.
炭素化繊維束を90°捩じることで、炭素化繊維束に外力が加わり、炭素化繊維束の幅が広がりやすい。また、複数の炭素化繊維束が並走している場合は、隣の炭素化繊維束を接触することなく、場所を取らないので好ましい。 In the method for producing a carbon fiber bundle of the present invention, the carbonized fiber bundle is twisted by 90° in the plane direction of the carbon fiber bundle in contact with the roller immediately before the parallel rod. It is preferable to let it pass through in contact with .
By twisting the carbonized fiber bundle by 90°, an external force is applied to the carbonized fiber bundle, and the width of the carbonized fiber bundle tends to widen. Moreover, when a plurality of carbonized fiber bundles are running in parallel, it is preferable because the adjacent carbonized fiber bundles do not come into contact with each other, which saves space.
また、前記棒は、固定されていることが好ましいが、炭素繊維束と繊維束に摩擦力が生じて外力が加わるように、繊維束の速度より棒の表面速度が遅くなるような抵抗が棒にあれば、棒は回転しても良い。 In the method for producing a carbon fiber bundle of the present invention, the maximum width of the carbonized fiber bundle in contact with the parallel bars is the width of the carbonized fiber bundle in contact with the roller immediately before the parallel bars. 5-20% wider is preferred.
In addition, the rod is preferably fixed, but the resistance of the rod is such that the surface speed of the rod becomes slower than the speed of the fiber bundles so that frictional force is generated between the carbon fiber bundles and the fiber bundles and an external force is applied. , the rod may rotate.
また、スプールに巻き取る以外に、梱包箱等に振り込んでも良い。 In the winding process of step (i), the carbon fiber bundle is wound on the winding core while being traversed to obtain a spool of the carbon fiber bundle. The method of winding the carbon fiber bundle may be any method as long as it can wind the carbon fiber bundle onto the spool without twisting or the like. There is a free-
Also, instead of winding it on a spool, it may be transferred to a packing box or the like.
巻き出し張力を0.40cN/tex、炭素繊維束の走行速度を20m/minでボビンから炭素繊維束を巻き出し、ローラーを介して、直径8mmの固定された金属棒(材質:SUS304、クロムメッキ-鏡面処理)へ抱き角15°で接触させ、擦過させた。該炭素繊維束が500m通過後に走行を停止し、ステンレス棒に堆積した毛羽を採取し、質量を測定する。測定は3回行い、得られた数値の単純平均値を擦過毛羽量とした。 (Method for measuring amount of rubbed fluff)
The carbon fiber bundle was unwound from the bobbin with an unwinding tension of 0.40 cN/tex and a running speed of the carbon fiber bundle of 20 m/min. -mirror surface treatment) at an embrace angle of 15° and rubbed. After the carbon fiber bundle has passed 500 m, the running is stopped, and fluff deposited on the stainless rod is collected and measured for mass. The measurement was performed 3 times, and the simple average value of the obtained numerical values was taken as the rubbed fluff amount.
(炭素繊維束の製造)
単繊維繊度1.33dtex、単繊維数50,000本の前駆体繊維束を、熱風循環式耐炎化炉にて240℃~260℃の加熱空気中で伸張率を-3.9%として66分間耐炎化処理を行って耐炎化繊維束を得た後、窒素雰囲気下、最高温度が700℃の熱処理炉にて伸張率を1.5%として、約1.5分間の前炭素化処理を行い、次いで窒素雰囲気下、最高温度が1350℃の熱処理炉にて伸張率を-4.5%として、約1.5分間の炭素化処理を行い、炭素化繊維束を得た。 [Examples 1 to 10]
(Manufacture of carbon fiber bundles)
A precursor fiber bundle with a single fiber fineness of 1.33 dtex and a single fiber number of 50,000 is heated in air at 240°C to 260°C in a hot air circulation type flameproofing furnace at an elongation rate of -3.9% for 66 minutes. After obtaining a flame-resistant fiber bundle by performing flame-resistant treatment, pre-carbonization treatment is performed for about 1.5 minutes at an elongation rate of 1.5% in a heat treatment furnace with a maximum temperature of 700 ° C. in a nitrogen atmosphere. Then, carbonization treatment was carried out for about 1.5 minutes in a heat treatment furnace with a maximum temperature of 1350° C. in a nitrogen atmosphere at an elongation rate of −4.5% to obtain a carbonized fiber bundle.
実施例は、平均化部材である平行な棒がない、従来の工程である比較例に対し、炭素繊維束の厚さの変動率が半分以下となり良好な結果であった。
また、カンチレバー値や貼り付き性が比較例に比べ低くなっており、繊維束がほぐされていることが分かる。
これらの実施例で得られる炭素繊維束は、繊維束の厚さの繊維束の幅方向の変動率が小さいため、タッチロール方式により、単位量の炭素繊維に対して一定量の樹脂を付与することができるので、成形品中の繊維含有率が均一になる。 Various evaluations of the carbon fiber bundles thus obtained were performed. In order to measure the thickness of the carbon fiber bundle, a two-dimensional laser displacement meter (manufactured by KEYENCE CORPORATION, sensor head LJ-V7080, controller LJ-V7000) is used to measure the thickness data simultaneously in a row in the width direction of the carbon fiber bundle. obtained. Table 1 shows the results.
In the example, the variation rate of the thickness of the carbon fiber bundle was less than half that of the comparative example, which was a conventional process without the parallel bars as the averaging members, and the result was good.
In addition, the cantilever value and sticking property are lower than those of the comparative example, indicating that the fiber bundles are loosened.
Since the carbon fiber bundles obtained in these examples have a small variation in the thickness of the fiber bundle in the width direction of the fiber bundle, a fixed amount of resin is applied to a unit amount of carbon fiber by a touch roll method. Therefore, the fiber content in the molded product becomes uniform.
サイジング工程後に炭素繊維束を均一化する工程を走行させずに巻き取り部にて炭素繊維束を4本のスプールに巻き取ったこと以外は、実施例1と同様の方法で炭素繊維束を得た。各種評価結果を表1に示す。得られた炭素繊維束は、炭素繊維束の厚さの変動率は35%より大きく不良であった。 [Comparative Examples 1 to 4]
A carbon fiber bundle was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the carbon fiber bundle was wound on four spools at the winding unit without running the step of homogenizing the carbon fiber bundle after the sizing step. rice field. Various evaluation results are shown in Table 1. The resulting carbon fiber bundle was poor in that the thickness variation rate of the carbon fiber bundle was greater than 35%.
