Abstract

The present invention discloses a fiber surface treatment composition, characterized in that the composition is comprised of a silane coupling agent, a polymer and a water repellent agent, wherein the polymer is a copolymer of a polyurethane/acrylic acid polymer, wherein the acrylic polymer is selected from the group consisting of polyacrylic acid, polyacrylates or acrylic acid-acrylic acid ester copolymers. The invention also discloses an insulating fiber having the composition on its surface, the preparation method for it, and an insulating yarn and an insulated cord. The insulated fibers, yarns and ropes of the invention have the advantages of moisture resistance, washing resistance, ultraviolet aging resistance and the like. Particularly, the insulated ropes can be applied to the charging work of transmission lines, especially the UHV transmission lines.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A fiber surface treatment composition, wherein the composition comprises a silane coupling agent, a polymer and a waterproofing agent, wherein the polymer comprises a copolymer of polyurethane/polyacrylics, wherein the polyacrylics is selected from the group consisting of polyacrylic acid, polyacrylates and acrylic acid-acrylic ester copolymers, and the polymer has a core-shell structure, wherein the core is comprised of polyurethane and the shell is comprised of polyacrylics.

2. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein if the polyacrylics is selected from polyacrylates or acrylic acid-acrylic ester copolymers, the acrylic ester-forming alcohol in the acrylate monomer is a linear alcohol having a carbon chain with a length of no less than 8 carbon atoms.

3. The composition according to claim 2 , wherein the acrylate monomer is selected from at least one of octyl acrylate, decyl acrylate, and lauryl acrylate.

4. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer comprises a nano-particle having a particle size in the range of 5 to 200 nm.

5. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer comprises a polymer emulsion.

6. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the diisocyanate monomer forming the polyurethane is selected from isophorone diisocyanate.

7. The composition according to claim 1 , further comprising a cationic dye selected from at least one of C. I. Basic Yellow 24 and C.I. Basic Yellow 28.

8. An insulated fiber, characterized in that the insulated fiber is attached with the composition according to claim 1 .

9. The insulated fiber according to claim 8 , wherein the fiber is selected from Poly-p-phenylene benzobisoxazazole (PBO) fiber.

10. The insulated fiber according to claim 8 , wherein the composition on the surface of the insulating fiber comprises 1 to 20% by weight of the insulating fiber.

11. The insulated fiber according to claim 8 , wherein the waterproofing agent on the surface of the insulating fiber comprises 1 to 18% by weight of the insulating fiber.

12. A method for preparing an insulated fiber, comprising the following steps:
1) contacting the composition according to claim 1 with the fiber to make the composition to be adhered to the surface of the fiber; and
2) baking the fiber to which the composition is adhered;
wherein the fiber comprises polyparaphenylene benzobisoxazole (PBO) fiber.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the step of contacting comprises impregnating the fiber sequentially in the silane coupling agent, the polymer and the waterproofing agent.

14. The method of claim 12 , wherein the step of contacting comprises impregnating the fiber in a mixture of the silane coupling agent and the polymer, and then washing, drying and finally immersing the fiber in the waterproofing agent.
