Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1. In order to make the carbon fiber or glass fiber reinforced material surface layer of the molded product cooperate with the rigid foam core material, the bond is firm and does not delaminate, the glued layer must be used, which increases the process and cost
[0005] 2. Because some rigid foams have poor temperature resistance, they cannot withstand the molding temperature of 140-180°C commonly used carbon fiber or glass fiber reinforced materials, that is, high temperature shrinkage, resulting in poor appearance of the product during the molding process and increased scrap rate
[0006] 3. Both the glued layer and the rigid foam have no outward expansion pressure, which also causes apparent defects such as lack of glue in the molded product, which increases the post-stage repair process
Although the above two problems can be solved, the high-energy adhesive itself is not viscous enough, and the initial adhesion to the rigid foam is poor. Especially for complex parts, it is difficult to ensure that the high-energy adhesive and the rigid foam are completely free of air bubbles during the lamination operation. , resulting in poor operation

Abstract

The invention discloses a foam body with a thermal self-expansion function and a preparation method thereof. The inner layer of the foam body with the thermal self-expansion function is rigid foam, and the outer layer is thermal self-expanding resin. The thermal self-expanding resin and the rigid foam are integrally formed, interface bubbles are fewer, the binding force is stronger, and uniformlyimproving the strength of products is facilitated. Meanwhile, the integrally formed foam structure has an effect suitable for forming shaped products. The foam body with the thermal self-expansion function is used for the preparation of sandwich composite structural parts, has excellent properties such as high strength, light weight, good interlayer adhesion, resistance to delamination and splitting and impact resistance, and can be applied to the field of sandwich structure composite parts of complex structures.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of fiber composite molding, in particular to a foam with thermal self-expansion function and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Rigid foam material has the advantages of low density, strong energy absorption and buffering capacity, and good sound absorption performance. It is often used in the design of sandwich structure, making the sandwich structure material have excellent properties that are different from traditional structural materials, such as light weight , High rigidity and high strength, etc. It has broad application prospects in aerospace, automobile manufacturing, sports and leisure, etc. The most typical sandwich structure composite material in the prior art usually consists of a panel (carbon fiber or glass fiber reinforced material), a core material (hard foam), and a glue layer. The common preparation method is to coat and glue the hard foam Layer, and then wrapped with carbon cl...
