Technical field
The present invention relates to the foam silicon carbon stupalith, specifically foam silicon carbon stupalith of a kind of high strength dense and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Foamed ceramics is a kind of special porous ceramics.Its geometry feature is to be elementary cell with polygonal Closed loop, the three-dimensional networks that each elementary cell is interconnected to form.Because silicon carbide has excellent high temperature resistant, anti-oxidant, acid-alkali-corrosive-resisting, thermal shock resistance and characteristic of semiconductor, the making and the application of foam silicon carbon pottery are paid attention to widely.
Present foam silicon carbon pottery has following four kinds of methods preparation: powder sintering, solid state reaction sintering process, contain silicone resin pyrolysis method and vapour deposition process.
Powder sintering is divided into two kinds of different processes again.After the first will contain the slip of the carborundum powder of a certain amount of sintering aid and linking agent (as ethyl silicate hydrolyzed solution, silicon sol etc.) furnishing suitable concn, soak and hang on the polyurethane foam, after solidifying drying, deviate from linking agent and polyurethane foam 200~600 ℃ of scopes.Then, temperature is elevated to carries out sintering between 1500~2200 ℃ and just obtain foamed silicon carbide ceramics; Another kind method is with after containing the carborundum powder and strain shape whipping agent uniform mixing of sintering aid, with mold pressing or pouring procedure moulding.Deviate from whipping agent by fusing or gasification, carry out high temperature sintering then to obtain the spumescence silicon carbide ceramics.
