Quick-curing polyimide coating for high-temperature-resistant optical fiber
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of Quick-curing polyimide coating for high-temperature-resistant optical fiber, especially a kind of UV-light or electron beam cause can be quick-setting and have a Quick-curing polyimide coating for high-temperature-resistant optical fiber of heat resistance and stronger tensile strength.Be mainly used in the outer layer protection of extraordinary heatproof optical fiber cable, also can need quick-setting photoelectron paint field for other.
Background technology
The feature such as lightweight, anti-electromagnetic interference that optical fiber has, transmission capacity are large, gets more and more for aerospace signal transmission system.It is high temperature resistant, low temperature resistant etc. that severe Working environment requires optical fiber to have.Optical fiber coatings is for the protection of optical fibre, to exempt to be affected by the external environment, to keep the coating of its enough physical strength and optical property.The soft buffer layer of one deck applying during by fibre-optical drawing moulding, and the multilayer protection system that combines of the protective layer of the characteristic such as harder tough and tensile, the heatproof of the one deck applying afterwards, wear-resisting, chemicals-resistant.
The high-temperature resistant optical fiber working temperature that aviation is used is-55 ℃~200 ℃, fiber work temperature range-65 that space flight is used ℃~200 ℃.Conventional fiber coating working temperature is-55 ℃~85 ℃, and at present as the coating of optical fiber cable protection, the high-temperature resistant of acrylic coating is that 150 ℃, the maximum long term operation temperature of silicon rubber of thermofixation are 180 ℃.200 ℃ of external main polyimide that adopt of above heatproof optical fiber coatings.
Polyimide has good heatproof, media-resistant, resistent fatigue characteristic and excellent over-all properties.But as coating, generally the form with polyamic acid exists, and in solidification process, must pass through dehydrating condensation, this process of imidization.If imidization in advance, be difficult to dissolve, cause constructional difficulties, and thermofixation mode is difficult to realize fast setting, can not meet the needs of the quick wire drawing of optical fiber.
Light-sensitive polyimide (PSPI) is the nearly 30 years high-performance photosensitive resins that grow up, and has excellent thermostability, good machinery, electric, chemistry and photosensitive property.Owing to having sensitization and heat-resisting dual-use function concurrently, compare with non-photosensitive polyimide, there is curing speed feature faster, but general photosensitive polyimide resin is all to exist with polyamic acid form, the same with thermofixation polyimide, solidification process all be can't do without dehydration, this process of condensation imidization, if imidization in advance, solvability reduces greatly, is difficult to apply.
The present invention is based on above situation, in photo-sensistive polyimide resin, introduce fluoro-containing group, the fluorine modified light-sensitive polyimide forming has the performances such as good solvability, low optical losses, specific inductivity, water absorbability and refractive index, this type of PSPI has higher luminous sensitivity, film forming caudacoria rate of loss is minimum, because main chain after exposure is crosslinked, further improved thermostability and the chemical stability of polymkeric substance simultaneously.Such simple modified polyimide is due to active not enough, and curing speed can not meet the demands, and therefore also need in resin, introduce efficiency light initiator realizes fast setting.In photosensitive resin Light Curing, general light trigger does not participate in film formation reaction, and add-on too much can cause coating heat resistance can descend degradation disadvantage, we synthetic efficiency light initiator N-has the efficiency of initiation splendid to this photosensitive resin to methylbenzene maleimide, this initiator participates in film formation reaction, and there is good temperature tolerance, when guaranteeing that temperature tolerance and tensile strength do not reduce, realized fast setting.
Very many as CN1651533A, CN1047104, CN1047103, CN101792619A, CN101068852A etc. about ultraviolet curable optical fiber coating document and patent, but one piece of fast setting that relates to polyimide paint be there is no.The present invention has introduced active fluoro-containing group on polyimide segment, when making polyimide have photosensitivity, has good solubility, has introduced reactive high-efficiency light trigger and realized fast setting when keeping polyimide basic nature energy.
