The present disclosure relates to the field of cable processing, in particular relates to a conductive wire, a coil and a device.
For a long time, conductive wires are a main raw material for the manufacture of cables, wires, conductor materials, connection terminals and conversion terminals. With the development of modern industry, there are increasingly demanding in safety, high efficiency and energy saving of electrical and electronic devices, and electrical and electronic devices are showing a trend of miniaturization and light weight, however, the miniaturization and light weight of components inevitably lead to an increase in the temperature of their operation environment, and the conductive wires among coils of components that function to insulate also needs to increase the thermal conductive accordingly. However, in the existing conductive wires, in addition to low thermal conductivity of paint layers coated on a conductive core layer, a multi-layer winding arrangement causes the heat generated by the conductive wires to dissipate slowly, which seriously hinders the overall heat dissipation.
Therefore, providing a conductive wire with good thermal conduction performance has become a technical problem to be solved urgently in the art.

As described in the background art, the conductive wires in the prior art have the problem of poor thermal conduction performance. In order to solve the above technical problem, the present disclosure provides a conductive wire, a coil and a device.
In a first aspect, the present disclosure provides a conductive wire, the conductive wire includes a conductive core layer, a first paint layer provided on an outer side of the conductive core layer, and a second paint layer provided on an outer side of the first paint layer; wherein, the first paint layer includes aluminum oxide-coated graphene therein, and the second paint layer includes silver-coated graphene therein.
The coefficient of thermal conductivity of the first paint layer and the second paint layer used in the existing conductive wires is low, generally 0.2 W/(m·K) or less, and the thermal conduction performance of the conductive wire is not good. Although adding materials having high thermal conductivity to the first paint layer and the second paint layer can theoretically improve the thermal conductivity of the conductive wire, the inventors have found that not all materials having high thermal conductivity can improve the thermal conductivity of the conductive wire when they are added into the first paint layer and the second paint layer. For example, the coefficient of thermal conductivity of AlN is high and theoretical value thereof reaches 319 W/(m·K), but the thermal conduction performance of the conductive wire obtained after adding AlN to the first paint layer and the second paint layer respectively is not good, which is a technical problem that those skilled in the art have never realized before. After extensive and profound research, the inventors found that graphene is the thinnest two-dimensional material discovered so far, graphene is a two-dimensional periodic structure composed of carbon six-membered rings, has unique and excellent properties in the aspect such as physics and chemistry, for example, excellent electrical conductivity, high specific surface area, high tensile strength, high light transmittance, high stability, high thermal conductivity, etc., and the thermal conductivity of graphene can reach 3000 W/(m·K) or more. By adding graphene into the first paint layer and the second paint layer, the coefficient of thermal conductivity of the first paint layer and the second paint layer can be greatly improved, and the thermal conduction performance of the conductive wire can be significantly improved.
However, since graphene have high electrical and thermal conduction performances while the first paint layer in the conductive wire functions the effect of insulation, it is difficult for the existing first paint layer to have both insulation and thermal conductivity, and therefore, there are few reports that graphene is used in the first paint layer of conductive wires. In the present disclosure, the aluminum oxide is coated on a surface of the graphene, and the aluminum oxide and the graphene cooperate with each other and function synergistically, so that the graphene coated with the aluminum oxide has both insulation and good thermal conductivity. Here, an addition amount of graphene in the first paint layer can be greatly increased, a heat conduction network chain can be formed to the greatest extent while maintaining insulation, and therefore significantly improve the thermal conductivity thereof.
In the present disclosure, the aluminum oxide has electrical insulation and good thermal conductivity, and when the aluminum oxide is coated on the surface of the graphene, the aluminum oxide may cooperate with the graphene, and provide the graphene with insulating property while further improving the thermal conduction performance of the first paint layer, so that the first paint layer has high thermal conductivity, and in the meanwhile has electrical insulation, so as to solve the problem that the existing first paint layer is not easy to have both insulation and thermal conductivity.
As for coils wound by conductive wires, the coils can be bonded together by simple heating, the heating temperature usually needs up to 500° C. The inventors have found in their practice that, when graphene is directly added to the second paint layer, the graphene may undergo high-temperature oxidation, thereby reducing the thermal conductivity of the graphene and the adhesion of the second paint layer, resulting in a poor adhesion effect of the second paint layer. This is a technical problem which have not yet realized by those skilled in the art. In order to solve the above problem, in the present disclosure, silver is coated on the surface of graphene, the present disclosure combines the advantages of the graphene and the silver, to overcome shortcomings thereof, so that the graphene and silver cooperate with each other, in this way, on the one hand, high-temperature oxidation of graphene can be prevented and the adhesion effect of the second paint layer after being coated can be effectively improved, on the other hand, the thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity of the second paint layer can be significantly improved, and furthermore, the problem that silver is easy to migrate is solved, such that silver and the graphene is combined firmly while the dispersion of graphene is increased.
