摘要
In order to improve the mechanical properties of SiO_2 aerogel-glass fiber composites, effects of different solvents(cyclohexane, n-hexane, ethanol, acetone) and different dispersing modes(planetary ball milling, ultrasonic dispersion and mechanical stirring) and dispersing duration(10-40 min) on the dispersion of chopped alkali-free glass fiber bundles were studied to determine the best dispersion process. On this basis, the materials were batched according to the mass fraction of SiO_2 aerogel powder to chopped alkali free glass fiber bundles of 90:10, and a certain amount of zinc oxide light-screening agent and phenolic resin binder were added. SiO_2 aerogel glass fiber composite specimens were prepared by direct adding chopped alkali free glass fiber bundles and pre-dispersed chopped alkali free glass fiber bundles, respectively. The cold crushing strength and the thermal conductivity at different surface temperatures(300, 400, 500 and 600 ℃, respectively)of the specimens were measured. The results show that:(1) the optimum dispersion process of chopped alkali-free glass fiber bundles is using ethanol as solvent and mechanical stirring for 30 min;(2) pre-dispersion of chopped alkali-free glass fiber bundles has little effect on the thermal conductivity of SiO_2 aerogel-glass fiber composites but can improve the cold crushing strength.
