Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of solar selectively photo-thermal absorber coatings and preparation method thereof, belong to the preparing technical field of composite film material.
Background technology
Solar selectively photo-thermal absorber coatings is for the Core Feature part that absorbs solar energy in the solar thermal collector.It is a thin film system with sandwich construction, comprises the infrared external reflection bottom, absorbed layer and the anti-reflection layer that are attached to substrate surface.
Solar selectively absorbing coating converts solar energy into heat energy, raise in the temperature of this process floating coat and base material, and with the infrared thermal wave form to the environmental radiation energy.In order to improve energy gain and loss ratio, require this coating system can fully absorb the part of concentration of energy in the earthbound solar energy spectrum, simultaneously less to the environmental radiation infrared thermal wave, this i.e. the selective application requirements that absorbs.So-called " the selective absorption ", in the application's context, the light absorption that refers to this coating system has selectively spectrum and have higher absorptance α value in solar energy spectrum wavelength 0.3--2.5 micrometer range, has low transmitting ratio ε value in the infrared range of spectrum beyond 2.5 microns.
Solar absorption is solar selectively absorbing coating system two most important light thermal property indexs with infrared emission than ε than α, wherein solar absorption depends on the selection of absorbed layer and anti-reflection layer than α, and infrared emission depends primarily on the selection of infrared external reflection primer than ε, and is subject to the impact of absorbed layer.Usually, the material of infrared external reflection bottom requirement is satisfied on base material or its surface because of employing, and becomes the part of solar selectively absorbing coating system.
Up to now, for the sunshine in the 0.3--2.5 micron wave length scope, adopt commercially available solar thermal collector or the solar heat-collection plate core of vacuum coating technology preparation, its absorptance can reach about 0.93, and the infrared emission ratio drops to below 0.1.In the practice, when the solar absorption of coating for selective absorption than in 0.92 to 0.96(high solar absorptance theoretical value) between the time, absorption efficiency has been difficult to have the variation of practical significance.
Utilize magnetron sputtering technology to prepare solar selectively absorbing coating, sequentially generally comprise following steps:
1) adopt the metal base with high infrared reflectance, or with the metal deposition of tool high infrared reflectance on base material (such as stainless steel) surface, form the infrared external reflection bottom;
2) deposit absorbed layer at the infrared external reflection bottom, inject flow by continuously changing reacting gas, produce different absorption subgrades; The chemical composition of whole absorbed layer changes in gradient.
3) deposit anti-reflection layer at absorbed layer, be generally ceramic material (oxide or nitride).
Magnetron sputtering process carries out in vacuum chamber as shown in Figure 2, and wherein magnetic field and electric field intersect vertically, near the cycloid motion so that electronics is spinned negative electrode (being target).Electronics clashes into ar atmo and causes it to become argon ion in motion process, and discharges a new free electron.Argon ion bombards target under the effect of electric field, the target particle deposition that it sputters is near the base material the anode; Secondary electron assists to form spontaneous glow discharge, so that sputter procedure is continued as the sputter byproduct.The power supply of magnetron sputtering can use dc source, the pulse power, midfrequent AC power supply, radio-frequency power supply or be used in combination above-mentioned several power supply.
Can obtain the various metals thin-film material by magnetically controlled DC sputtering, this utilization inert gas (being generally argon gas) is the sputter medium.Can obtain multiple ceramic membrane or metal-ceramic composite film material by reaction magnetocontrol sputtering, these ceramic materials are that metal targets and active gases reaction generate.Inert gas and active gases can inject vacuum chamber by air inlet pipe separately or after mixing.In sputter coating, keep vacuum with vavuum pump.The gas inject flow is take sccm as unit, the per minute gas inject amount of namely calculating take gas volume under the status of criterion (unit is as cubic centimetre).
In the vacuum coating practice, must be according to volume and the factor testing and measuring technology parameters such as shape, vavuum pump pumping efficiency and vacuum coating power of vacuum chamber, to prepare satisfactory thin-film material.The main technologic parameters of adjustable comprises injection flow, vacuum coating power and the sputtering time etc. of various gases.Vacuum coating power is larger, and the rete sedimentation rate is faster; And sputtering time is basically only relevant with thicknesses of layers.When plated metal-ceramic composite film material, in order to obtain specific component ratio, when improving vacuum coating power, need to correspondingly increase the injection flow of reacting gas.Easily cause reacting unstability and power is excessive, reduce the uniformity of membranous layer ingredient and thickness.
