Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of artificial graphite film processing, in particular to a manufacturing method of an ultra-thick artificial graphite film.

Background

The artificial graphite film is a very thin heat conduction material, also called as a heat conduction graphite film, a heat conduction graphite sheet, a graphite radiating fin and the like, and provides possibility for thinning development of electronic products. The artificial graphite film has good reprocessing performance, can be compounded with other thin film materials such as PET and the like or coated with glue according to the application, has elasticity, can be cut and stamped into any shape, and can be bent for multiple times; the film is suitable for rapid heat conduction for converting a point heat source into a surface heat source, has high heat conduction performance, and is made of a highly oriented graphite polymer film. At present, the artificial graphite film is widely applied to PDP, LCD TV, notewood PC, UMPC, Flat Panel Display, MPU, Projector, Power Supply, LED, MID and mobile phone; a DVD; a digital camera; computers and peripheral equipment; a sensor; a semiconductor production facility; in electronic products such as optical fiber communication equipment. The preparation of the artificial graphite film comprises the steps of PI film winding, carbonization, graphitization, calendering and the like.

The prior artificial graphite film manufacturing method has defects and insufficiencies in a plurality of steps, so that the thickness of the prepared artificial graphite film can not meet the requirement, and the quality of the artificial graphite film also has defects, firstly, when the PI film is wound, the gaps between the layers of the PI film coiled material are not strictly controlled, when the gaps between the layers of the PI film coiled material are too small, the layers can be attached together, so that the PI film coiled material is heated unevenly when being fired, when the gaps between the layers of the PI film coiled material are too large, the productivity of the artificial graphite film can be seriously reduced, in addition, the sectional heating total heating time in the carbonization and graphitization processes in the prior artificial graphite film manufacturing method is shorter, and the sectional heating maximum temperature is lower, wherein the heating maximum temperature in the carbonization step of the prior artificial graphite film manufacturing method is basically controlled below 1200 ℃, and the whole heating time is basically controlled within 5 hours, therefore, in the carbonization process, the PI film cannot be fully burnt, so that the surface of the finally prepared artificial graphite bulk film has salient points, bright points and arch edges, and the rolling processing of the rear end is not facilitated; in the graphitization step of the existing artificial graphite film manufacturing method, the highest temperature of sectional heating is basically controlled to be 2600-2700 ℃, and the whole heating time is basically 10-12 hours, so that the bending resistance and the heat conductivity of the manufactured artificial graphite film are insufficient, the heat dissipation effect of the artificial graphite film is reduced, the subsequent die cutting processing is inconvenient, and the thickness of the artificial graphite film manufactured by the existing artificial graphite film manufacturing method is generally not more than 60 micrometers based on the defects.

Aiming at the technical problems, the invention discloses a manufacturing method of an ultra-thick artificial graphite film, which has the advantages of improving the bending resistance and the heat conduction performance of the artificial graphite film, reducing the defects of salient points, bright points and arching edges on the surface of the artificial graphite film, facilitating the rolling and die cutting processing of the rear end, increasing the thickness of a single-layer artificial graphite film and the like.
