In order to solve the problems, in a first aspect, the invention provides a preparation method of a dimensionally stable expanded polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane, by which the problem of transverse shrinkage of the fiber membrane can be effectively solved, and the dimensional stability of the membrane is ensured.
The technical scheme for solving the problems is as follows:
A preparation method of a size-stable expanded polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane comprises the following steps:
S1, uniformly mixing polytetrafluoroethylene dispersion resin and lubricating oil according to a proportion, curing, and sequentially performing compaction, extrusion, calendaring and degreasing treatment to obtain a polytetrafluoroethylene baseband;
s2, longitudinally stretching the polytetrafluoroethylene base band for the first time to obtain a polytetrafluoroethylene first stretching band;
S3, performing first high-temperature setting treatment on the polytetrafluoroethylene first stretching belt;
S4, carrying out secondary longitudinal stretching on the polytetrafluoroethylene first stretching belt subjected to the primary high-temperature setting treatment to obtain a polytetrafluoroethylene second stretching belt;
s5, transversely stretching the polytetrafluoroethylene second stretching belt to obtain a polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane;
S6, longitudinally heating the polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane to retract by 0.05-0.2 times, and secondarily heat-setting to obtain the size-stable expanded polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane.
According to the application, the polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane is longitudinally heated to retract by 0.05-0.2 times, namely, the polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane is longitudinally retracted to 80-95% of the polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane in the S5.
In the preparation method, the polytetrafluoroethylene base band is subjected to first high-temperature setting treatment after first longitudinal stretching, so that nodes formed by the fibers are softened and bonded together, and the nodes are regularly split during second longitudinal stretching, so that the pore diameter distribution of the fiber membrane is uniform. The polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane is longitudinally heated to retract by 0.05-0.2 times, so that the fibers and nodes in the membrane can be further retracted, and the nodes are arranged as orderly as possible. Therefore, the preparation method can effectively solve the problem of transverse shrinkage of the fiber membrane on the basis of not affecting the membrane performance, and ensures the stability of the membrane size.
Preferably, in the step S1, the mass ratio of the polytetrafluoroethylene dispersion resin to the lubricating oil is (8-12): 20-30.
Preferably, in the step S1, the curing temperature is 30 to 80 ℃ and the curing time is 10 to 24 hours.
Preferably, in the step S2, the first longitudinal stretching temperature is 200-260 ℃, and the first longitudinal stretching multiple is 2-5 times.
Preferably, in the step S3, the first high-temperature setting treatment temperature is 300-340 ℃ and the treatment time is 1-3 min.
Preferably, in the step S4, the secondary longitudinal stretching temperature is 200-260 ℃, and the secondary longitudinal stretching multiple is 2-5 times.
Preferably, in the step S5, the transverse stretching temperature is 250 to 300 ℃, and the transverse stretching multiple is 4 to 8 times.
Preferably, in the step S6, the longitudinal heating retraction temperature is 240 to 280 ℃.
Preferably, in the step S6, the secondary heat setting temperature is 330-360 ℃, and the secondary heat setting time is 1-3 min.
In a second aspect, the invention provides a dimensionally stable expanded polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane, wherein fiber membrane nodes are in a thin strip shape, are arranged along the transverse direction, and have good dimensional stability, and the dimensionally stable expanded polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane is obtained by the preparation method.
The invention has the following beneficial effects:
When the expanded polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane is prepared, polytetrafluoroethylene dispersion resin and lubricating oil are uniformly mixed, and then are subjected to curing, blank pressing, extrusion, calendaring and degreasing treatment in sequence to obtain a polytetrafluoroethylene base band, and then a novel biaxial stretching process is adopted to sequentially carry out first longitudinal stretching, first high-temperature shaping treatment, second longitudinal stretching, transverse stretching, retraction along the longitudinal direction and second heat shaping treatment on the polytetrafluoroethylene base band to obtain the size-stable expanded polytetrafluoroethylene fiber membrane.
