Crosslinked fluoropolymer resin and control method for same
A crosslinked fluoropolymer resin is configured to include a measuring step of irradiating a surface of the crosslinked fluoropolymer resin with a laser to measure a Raman spectrum, and an acceptance or rejection decision step of determining an acceptance or a rejection of a quality of a measurement region irradiated with the laser, on the basis of an intensity of a fluorescence spectrum relative to an intensity of a Raman scattering peak, which is ascribed to a CF 2 stretching vibration, in the measured Raman spectrum.
1. A quality control method for a crosslinked fluoropolymer resin, comprising:
a measuring step of irradiating a surface of the crosslinked fluoropolymer resin with a laser to measure a Raman spectrum; and
an acceptance or rejection decision step of determining an acceptance or a rejection of a quality of a measurement region irradiated with the laser, on basis of an intensity of a fluorescence spectrum relative to an intensity of a Raman scattering peak, which is ascribed to a CF 2 stretching vibration, in a measured Raman spectrum.
2. The quality control method for the crosslinked fluoropolymer resin according to claim 1 , wherein, in the acceptance or rejection decision step, if a value of a ratio of an integrated intensity in a wave number range of 767 to 794 cm −1 of the fluorescence spectrum to an integrated intensity in a wave number range of 705 to 760 cm −1 of the CF 2 stretching vibration is not more than 0.55, then the quality of the measurement region irradiated with the laser is regarded as accepted.
3. A quality control method for a crosslinked fluoropolymer resin, comprising:
a measuring step of irradiating a surface of the crosslinked fluoropolymer resin with an X-ray to measure an X-ray diffraction pattern; and
an acceptance or rejection decision step of determining an acceptance or a rejection of a quality of a measurement region irradiated with the X-ray, on basis of at least one of a difference in distribution between spacings d between adjacent lattice planes, a degree of crystallinity, and a degree of (100) preferred orientation, which have been obtained from a measured X-ray diffraction pattern.
4. The quality control method for the crosslinked fluoropolymer resin according to claim 3 , wherein, in the acceptance or rejection decision step, if at least one of the difference in distribution between the spacings d between the adjacent (100) lattice planes being not greater than nm, the degree of crystallinity being not lower than 65%, and the degree of (100) preferred orientation being not lower than 0.97 is met, then the quality of the measurement region irradiated with the X-ray is regarded as accepted.
5. The quality control method for the crosslinked fluoropolymer resin according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a step of removing the measurement region, which has been regarded as rejected in the acceptance or rejection decision step, or a step of subjecting the crosslinked fluoropolymer resin to a heat treatment, to upgrade a quality of the measurement region, which has been regarded as rejected in the acceptance or rejection decision step, to a quality to be regarded as accepted.
