- thermoplastic polymer designates a plastic which can be (thermoplastically) deformed in a specific temperature range, preferably in the range from 25° C. to 350° C. This process is reversible, i.e. it can be repeated as often as you like by cooling and reheating until it is molten, as long as the material has not been damaged too much by overheating, so-called thermal decomposition, or by mechanical stress during shaping. This is where thermoplastic polymers differ from duroplastics and elastomers.
- thermoplastic polymers used according to the invention are polymers from the group consisting of acrylonitrile-ethylene-propylene(diene)styrene copolymer, acrylonitrile-methacrylate copolymer, acrylonitrile-methyl methacrylate copolymer, chlorinated acrylonitrile, polyethylene-styrene copolymer and acrylonitrile-butadiene -styrene copolymer, acrylonitrile-ethylene-propylene-styrene copolymer cellulose acetobutyrate, cellulose acetopropionate, hydrated cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, cellulose nitrate, cellulose propionate, cellulose triacetate, polyvinyl chloride, ethylene acrylic acid copolymer, ethylene butyl acrylate copolymer, ethylene - chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer, ethylene ethyl acrylate copolymer, ethylene methacrylate cop
- thermoplastic polymers melt-spinnable synthetic polycondensates are preferred. Also suitable thermoplastic polymers are melt-spinnable synthetic biopolymers.
- synthetic biopolymer designates a material that consists at least predominantly of biogenic raw materials (renewable raw materials). This is a differentiation from the conventional, petroleum-based materials or plastics, such as e.g. B. polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
- PE polyethylene

Description
Elektrisch leitfähiges Garn Electrically conductive yarn
Beschreibung description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein elektrisch leitfähiges Garn mit guten physikalischen und mechanischen Eigenschaften, ein Verfahren zu dessen Herstellung, sowie dessen Verwendung. The invention relates to an electrically conductive yarn with good physical and mechanical properties, a method for its production, and its use.
Es ist seit langem bekannt elektrisch leitfähige Garne aus thermoplastischen Polymeren herzustellen, bei denen ein elektrisch leitendes Material in das thermoplastische Polymer eingearbeitet wird oder ein Garn aus thermoplastischem Polymer mit einer elektrisch leitfähigen Ummantelung, beispielsweise in Form einer Bi-Komponentenfaser, versehen wird. Beispiele hierfür finden sich unter anderem in EP-A-1559815 und EP-A-3502327. It has long been known to produce electrically conductive yarns from thermoplastic polymers, in which an electrically conductive material is incorporated into the thermoplastic polymer or a yarn made from thermoplastic polymer is provided with an electrically conductive sheath, for example in the form of a bi-component fiber. Examples of this can be found inter alia in EP-A-1559815 and EP-A-3502327.
Die Kombination von thermoplastischen Polymeren und elektrisch leitfähigen Materialien, z.B. Grafit oder Ruß, ist allerdings nicht trivial, da insbesondere Kohlenstoff oder kohlenstoffbeladenes Polymerharz nicht gut haftet, was zu Abplatzungen oder Abblättern der Ummantelung führt. However, the combination of thermoplastic polymers and electrically conductive materials, e.g. graphite or carbon black, is not trivial, since carbon or carbon-loaded polymer resin in particular does not adhere well, which leads to spalling or flaking of the coating.
Ein weiteres Problem ist die Masse an elektrisch leitfähigen Materialien, insbesondere Kohlenstoff, die erforderlich ist, um ein ausreichendes Maß an elektrischer Leitfähigkeit zu erzeugen. Historisch gesehen beträgt der Kohlenstoffgehalt, der zur Bereitstellung einer angemessenen elektrischen Leitfähigkeit erforderlich ist, mehr als 25 Gew.-% bezogen auf das thermoplastische Polymer. Ein derartig hoher Kohlenstoffgehalt beeinträchtigt die technischen Eigenschaften von Garnen sehr stark. Another problem is the mass of electrically conductive materials, particularly carbon, required to produce a sufficient level of electrical conductivity. Historically, the carbon content required to provide adequate electrical conductivity has been greater than 25% by weight of the thermoplastic polymer. Such a high carbon content greatly affects the technical properties of yarns.
In jüngster Zeit hat die Verfügbarkeit von elektrisch hochleitfähigen Materialien wie Kohlenstoff-Nano-Röhrchen (Carbon Nano Tubes CNT) sowie Graphen und Fullerenen dazu geführt, die notwendige Masse an elektrisch leitfähigen Materialien zu reduzieren und damit die genannten Nachteile zumindest teilweise zu beheben, wie in EP-A-1559815 beschrieben. Recently, the availability of highly electrically conductive materials such as carbon nanotubes (CNT) as well as graphene and fullerenes has led to a reduction in the necessary mass of electrically conductive materials and thus at least partially eliminate the disadvantages mentioned, as in EP-A-1559815.
Dennoch weisen die bekannten elektrisch leitfähigen Garne und deren Herstellung starke Defizite auf. Einerseits besteht das Problem genügend elektrisch leitfähiges Additiv in der Fadenmatrix einzubetten, um über die elektrische Perkolationsschwelle zu kommen und gleichzeitig die Stabilität des Garnes während der Herstellung im Spinnprozess aufrecht zu erhalten und andererseits den beim Spinnverzug auftretenden Kräften Rechnung zu tragen, da diese bei der notwendigen Nachbehandlung, beispielsweise Verstrecken, zu einem Aufbrechen
des perkolierenden Additiv-Netzwerkes führen, wodurch die elektrische Leitfähigkeit verloren geht. Nevertheless, the known electrically conductive yarns and their production have serious deficits. On the one hand there is the problem of embedding enough electrically conductive additive in the thread matrix to get over the electrical percolation threshold and at the same time to maintain the stability of the yarn during production in the spinning process and on the other hand to take into account the forces occurring during spinning draft, since these are at the necessary post-treatment, e.g. stretching, to cracking of the percolating additive network, which means that the electrical conductivity is lost.
Eine Realisierung von elektrisch leitfähigen Garnen in einem herkömmlichen Spinnprozess, sowie einem Bi-Komponentenfaser-Spinnprozess, führt zu Garnen die entweder nicht mehr ausreichend elektrisch leitfähig oder mechanisch nicht stabil genug waren, um aufgewickelt werden zu können. A realization of electrically conductive yarns in a conventional spinning process, as well as a bi-component fiber spinning process, leads to yarns that were either no longer sufficiently electrically conductive or not mechanically stable enough to be able to be wound up.
Somit bestand weiterhin ein Bedarf an elektrisch leitfähigen Garnen, die einerseits eine gute elektrische Leitfähigkeit aufweisen und andererseits gute mechanische Eigenschaften aufweisen. Insbesondere sollen diese guten Eigenschaften auch bei der späteren Verwendung erhalten bleiben, beispielsweise bei der Einwirkung von mechanischem Stress und thermischer Belastung. There was therefore still a need for electrically conductive yarns which, on the one hand, have good electrical conductivity and, on the other hand, have good mechanical properties. In particular, these good properties should also be retained during subsequent use, for example when exposed to mechanical stress and thermal stress.

Die Herstellung solcher Polyester-Multifilament-Garne ist beispielsweise aus EP- A-0173221 sowie den darin zitierten Stellen grundsätzlich bekannt. Derartige hochfeste Polyester-Multifilament-Garne werden auch als Reifencord bezeichnet und in technischen Produkten eingesetzt, bei denen eine hohe Festigkeit benötigt wird. The production of such polyester multifilament yarns is known in principle, for example, from EP-A-0173221 and the places cited therein.

Die Herstellung in industriellem Umfang erfolgt hierbei über einen Schmelzspinnprozess. Hierzu wird das thermoplastische, polymere Material aufgeschmolzen und mittels eines Extruders im flüssigen Zustand in einen Spinnbalken geleitet. Von diesem Spinnbalken wird das geschmolzene Material sogenannten Spinndüsen zugeführt. Die Spinndüse weist üblicherweise eine mit mehreren Bohrungen versehene Spinndüsenplatte auf, aus denen die einzelnen Kapillaren (Filamente) der Faser extrudiert werden. Neben den Schmelzspinnverfahren werden auch Nass- bzw. Lösungsmittel-Spinnverfahren zur Herstellung von Spinnfasern eingesetzt. Hierbei wird anstelle der Schmelze eine hochviskose Lösung eines synthetischen Polymers durch Düsen mit feinen Bohrungen extrudiert. Beide Verfahren werden vom Fachmann als sogenanntes mehrstelliges Spinnverfahren bezeichnet. The production on an industrial scale takes place via a melt spinning process. For this purpose, the thermoplastic, polymeric material is melted and fed into a spinning beam in the liquid state by means of an extruder. The molten material is fed from this spinning beam to so-called spinnerets. The spinneret usually has a spinneret plate with a plurality of bores from which the individual capillaries (filaments) of the fiber are extruded. In addition to the melt spinning process, wet or solvent spinning processes are also used to produce staple fibers. Here, instead of the melt, a highly viscous solution of a synthetic polymer is extruded through nozzles with fine bores. Both processes are referred to by those skilled in the art as so-called multi-station spinning processes.

Das in der Ummantelung vorhandene elektrisch leitfähige Material weist üblicherweise elektrische Leitfähigkeit von min. 3x102 S/m auf, vorzugsweise min. 1x106 S/m, auf.

Bevorzugt handelt es sich bei dem elektrisch leitfähigen Material um ein Partikelförmiges Material, beispielsweise ein Pulver oder Granulat. Neben sphärischen Partikeln sind auch nicht- sphärische Partikel bis hin zu Stäbchen-,
faser-, plättchenförmigen oder verzweigten Partikeln möglich. Das Einbringen des elektrisch leitfähigen Materials in den Mantel ermöglicht es, dass auch größere Partikel zugesetzt werden können, die üblicherweise bei der Herstellung von Spinnfäden im Extrusions-Prozess stören. Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung kann das elektrisch leitfähige Material auch Partikel größer 2pm, vorzugsweise größer 3pm, insbesondere Partikel mit einer sphärischen Größe von mehr als 2pm, vorzugsweise größer 3pm, aufweisen. Derartige Partikelgrößen können bei üblichen Faden-Spinn-Prozessen nicht eingesetzt werden, da üblicherweise vor dem Spinnbalken ein Filter eingesetzt wird. Die Anwesenheit derartig großer Partikel aus elektrisch leitfähigem Material erlaubt es andererseits die elektrische Perkolationsschwelle leichter zu überwinden. Mit Hilfe der vorliegenden Erfindung können somit auch große Partikel aus elektrisch leitfähigem Material in das erfindungsgemäße Garn eingebracht werden. The electrically conductive material is preferably a particulate material, for example a powder or granules. In addition to spherical particles, non-spherical particles up to rod, fibrous, platelet-shaped or branched particles possible. The introduction of the electrically conductive material into the jacket makes it possible for larger particles to be added, which usually interfere with the production of spun filaments in the extrusion process. Within the scope of the present invention, the electrically conductive material can also have particles larger than 2 μm, preferably larger than 3 μm, in particular particles with a spherical size of more than 2 μm, preferably larger than 3 μm. Particle sizes of this type cannot be used in conventional thread spinning processes, since a filter is usually used in front of the spinning beam. The presence of such large particles of electrically conductive material, on the other hand, allows the electrical percolation threshold to be overcome more easily. With the help of the present invention, it is thus also possible to introduce large particles of electrically conductive material into the yarn according to the invention.
Das elektrisch leitfähige Material wird üblicherweise mit dem thermoplastischen Polymer für den Mantel vermischt, wobei dies in der Schmelze, beispielweise in einem Extruder, oder durch anderweitige Zudosierung erfolgen kann. Zur besseren Verteilung des elektrisch leitfähigen Materials im thermoplastischen Elastomer des Mantels sind auch sogenannte Masterbatches von Vorteil. The electrically conductive material is usually mixed with the thermoplastic polymer for the sheath, and this can be done in the melt, for example in an extruder, or by metering in in some other way.

Das umschließende Aufbringen des Mantels auf das Multifilament-Garn erfolgt mittels Extrusion aus der Schmelze. Hierbei wird das Multifilament-Garn durch eine ringförmige Extrusionsdüse gezogen, um die herum eine weitere, größere Extrusionsdüse installiert ist, welche die aufgeschmolzene Mantelkomponente auf das Multifilamentgarn aufbringt. Die Garndicke wird dabei durch die Dicke des Seelengarns, die Durchmesserdifferenz der Extrusionsdüsen und die Abzugsgeschwindigkeit des Garns bestimmt. Anschließend wird das Mehrkomponentengarn in einem Wasserbad gekühlt und aufgewickelt. The enclosing application of the sheath to the multifilament yarn is carried out by extrusion from the melt. Here, the multifilament yarn is pulled through a ring-shaped extrusion nozzle around which another, larger extrusion nozzle is installed, which applies the melted sheath component to the multifilament yarn. The yarn thickness is determined by the thickness of the core yarn, the difference in diameter of the extrusion nozzles and the take-off speed of the yarn. The multi-component yarn is then cooled in a water bath and wound up.

Diese Aggregate aus dem partikelförmigen Material, beispielsweise ein Pulver oder Granulat, können mittels optischer Methoden bestimmt werden. Hierzu wird aus der Mantelkomponente ein Film gebildet und mittels optischer Methoden die Aggregat-Größe bestimmt. Die Bestimmung kann beispielsweise mittels einer Analysators FSA100 der OCS Optical Control Systems GmbH, Witten, Germany, erfolgen. Hierzu wird eine kleine Menge der Mantelkomponente (üblicherweise 1 Gew.-% Mantel in RT5030 der Firma OCS) als Folie ausgeformt (d=20mm,>10pm) und untersucht (Fläche 1m2, Grauwert 150, Filtergröße 100, Auflösung 10pm, Filmdicke 30pm). Die individuelle Defektgröße kann, im Einzelfall, bis zu 500pm betragen und üblicherweise sind 90% der Defektstellen kleiner als 100pm. Vorzugsweise beträgt die durchschnittliche numerische Defektgröße üblicherweise bis zu 50pm.
Zusätze in den Thermoplasten des Multifilament-Kerns und des MantelsThe electrically conductive material used according to the invention can also form aggregates in the jacket. These aggregates of the particulate material, for example a powder or granules, can be determined using optical methods. For this purpose, a film is formed from the cladding component and the size of the aggregate is determined using optical methods. The determination can be made, for example, using an FSA100 analyzer from OCS Optical Control Systems GmbH, Witten, Germany. For this purpose, a small amount of the cladding component (usually 1% by weight of cladding in RT5030 from OCS) is formed into a film (d=20mm, >10pm) and examined (area 1m 2 , gray value 150, filter size 100, resolution 10pm, film thickness 30pm ). The individual defect size can, in individual cases, be up to 500 pm and usually 90% of the defects are smaller than 100 pm. Preferably, the average numerical defect size is typically up to 50pm.

Weiterer Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein Verfahren zur Herstellung des erfindungsgemäßen elektrisch leitfähigen Garns. Another object of the present invention is a method for producing the electrically conductive yarn according to the invention.
Das Verfahren zur Herstellung des erfindungsgemäßen elektrisch leitfähigen Garns umfasst die Schritte: a) Zuführen eines Multifilament-Garns mit The process for producing the electrically conductive yarn according to the invention comprises the steps: a) supplying a multifilament yarn with
(i) einer feinheitsbezogenen Festigkeit von 40 bis 300 cN/tex und (i) a tenacity of 40 to 300 cN/tex and

d) Aufwickeln des Garns auf einen geeigneten Träger, vorzugsweise in Form einer Spule. (x) has an electrically conductive coating with a thickness of at least 10 pm, d) winding the yarn onto a suitable support, preferably in the form of a spool.
Die Extrusion der Ummantelung bestehend im Wesentlichen aus thermoplastischem Elastomer und elektrisch leitfähigem Material erfolgt üblicherweise bei Temperaturen im Bereich von 180 bis 250°C, mindestens jedoch 30°C oberhalb der Schmelztemperatur des thermoplastischen Elastomeren des Mantels. The sheathing, consisting essentially of thermoplastic elastomer and electrically conductive material, is usually extruded at temperatures in the range from 180 to 250° C., but at least 30° C. above the melting temperature of the thermoplastic elastomer of the sheath.
Die Extrusion der Ummantelung erfolgt in einer Art und Weise, dass das Mantelmaterial keine oder nur eine geringe Orientierung aufweist, d.h. überwiegend amorphe Strukturen aufweist und nur geringe kristalline Anteile aufweist. Die geringere Orientierung kann mittels DSC oder Weitwinkelbeugung bestimmt werden. Weitere Methoden finden sich in der Dissertation von s. Bogner (2002) Institut für Textil- und Faserforschung Stuttgart. The sheathing is extruded in such a way that the sheathing material has little or no orientation, i.e. has predominantly amorphous structures and only small crystalline portions. The lower orientation can be determined by DSC or wide-angle diffraction. Further methods can be found in the dissertation by S. Bogner (2002) Institute for Textile and Fiber Research Stuttgart.
Darüber hinaus ist es von Vorteil, wenn das zu ummantelnde Multifilament-Garn unter Spannung gehalten wird. Je nach Viskosität der geschmolzenen Ummantelung wird diese auch - zumindest teilweise- durch die Bremswirkung der geschmolzenen Komponente aufgebaut. Eine typische Zugspannung beträgt beispielsweise 5-15 cN. In addition, it is advantageous if the multifilament yarn to be sheathed is kept under tension. Depending on the viscosity of the molten casing, this is also built up - at least in part - by the braking effect of the molten component. A typical tensile stress is 5-15 cN, for example.
Darüber hinaus ist es von Vorteil, wenn der Unterschied der Schmelzpunkte von Kern und Mantel mindestens 15°C, bevorzugt mindestens 25°C, insbesondere mindestens 30-80°C, beträgt. In addition, it is advantageous if the difference in the melting points of core and shell is at least 15°C, preferably at least 25°C, in particular at least 30-80°C.
Üblicherweise wird das die Ummantelung bildende Material zuvor getrocknet und anschließend dem Extruder zugeführt, wobei der Extruder mehrere Fleizzonen und eine Kühlung im Einzug aufweist. Neben den Fleizzonen im Extruder können auch außerhalb in Richtung Spinnkopf weitere Fleizzonen vorliegen. Nach Einbau der Düsen mit dem Seelengarn in den Spinnkopf wird das aufgeschmolzene Mantelmaterial seitlich über eine Düsenkombination auf das vorgelegte Garn (Multifilamentfaden) geleitet. Anschließend erfolgt die Abkühlung, vorzugsweise im Wasserbad, sowie die Relaxation in einer „Chili Unit“ wobei das ummantelte Garn üblicherweise ohne Spannung über mehrere Galetten läuft und dann aufgewickelt wird. Insofern eine dicke Ummantelung erfolgt, kann das resultierende Gewicht des ummantelten Garns zu einem unruhigen Lauf führen, der durch Anlegen einer leichten Spannung behoben werden kann. Üblicherweise wird in diesem Fall über zwei Galetten eine geringe Spannung angelegt werden, wobei die unterschiedlichen Geschwindigkeiten der beiden Galetten in Bereichen <0.5%
liegen. The material forming the casing is usually dried beforehand and then fed to the extruder, with the extruder having a plurality of heating zones and cooling in the intake. In addition to the fleiz zones in the extruder, further fleiz zones can also be present outside in the direction of the spinning head. After installing the nozzles with the core yarn in the spinning head, the melted jacket material is directed laterally through a combination of nozzles onto the yarn (multifilament thread). This is followed by cooling, preferably in a water bath, and relaxation in a “chili unit”, with the covered yarn usually running over several godets without tension and then being wound up. If a thick sheathing occurs, the resulting weight of the sheathed yarn can lead to unsteady running, which can be corrected by applying a slight tension. In this case, a low voltage is usually applied across two godets, with the different speeds of the two godets being in the range of <0.5% lie.
Das erfindungsgemäße elektrisch leitfähig Garn weist die erfindungsgemäßen Eigenschaften ohne eine weitere Verstreckung auf, so dass eine Schädigung durch Aufbrechen des perkolierenden Additiv-Netzwerkes unterbleibt. Darüber hinaus erlauben die besonderen Eigenschaften des Multifilament-Kerns, insbesondere die hohe spezifische Festigkeit, die geringe Bruchdehnung und das hohe Young Modul eine mechanische Spannung anzulegen, die während der Ummantelung aufrechterhalten werden kann. Die weiteren besonderen Eigenschaften des Multifilament-Kerns, insbesondere die Orientierung und der geringe Thermoschrumpf, führen dazu, dass während der Ummantelung kein Thermoschrumpf ausgelöst wird und somit auftretende Kräfte vermieden werden, die eine Schädigung des perkolierenden Additiv-Netzwerkes in der Ummantelung bewirken. Darüber hinaus wird eine sehr gleichmäßige Dicke der Ummantelung erhalten. The electrically conductive yarn according to the invention has the properties according to the invention without further stretching, so that damage by breaking up the percolating additive network does not occur. In addition, the special properties of the multifilament core, in particular the high specific strength, the low elongation at break and the high Young's modulus allow mechanical tension to be applied that can be maintained during the sheathing. The other special properties of the multifilament core, in particular the orientation and the low thermal shrinkage, mean that no thermal shrinkage is triggered during the sheathing and thus forces that occur that damage the percolating additive network in the sheathing are avoided. In addition, a very uniform thickness of the cladding is obtained.

A spinneret combination with a 0.3 mm inner and 0.65 mm outer nozzle is used to produce a conductive yarn with a thickness of 0.65 mm from a conductive SEBS/additive compound. The yarn presented is fed through the inner of the two spinnerets and the spinning head and through the water bath and via the gallettes to the winding unit. The spinnerets are firmly screwed into the spinning head and the winding process is started. The previously dried electrically conductive compound is fed into the extruder and heated there in 3 heating zones to approx. 210 °C until the appropriate viscosity is reached. The melt is fed to the running yarn via the extruder, with the start of the coating process being clearly indicated by the color change of the yarn from white to black recognizable. Depending on the winding speed, the extruder speed is adjusted so that the yarn reaches the maximum diameter of 0.65 mm and then no longer increases.
