Background technology
Porous ceramics can be regarded the complex body of pottery and pore as, the advantage that has had both stupalith and vesicular structure, have that density is little, high temperature resistant, corrosion-resistant, anti-thermal shock, thermal expansivity be little, the features such as easy processing, it is a kind of good structure-function integration material, can be used as lagging material, electromagnetic wave transparent material etc.But because it is surperficial and inside is all vesicular structures, and hole is communicated with.In use, be easy to moisture in absorbed air, thereby can increase the thermal conductivity of porous ceramics and the dielectric properties of reduction porous ceramics; In addition, porous ceramic matrix surface is more coarse, has a large amount of pores, has significantly reduced the mechanical property of porous ceramics.Therefore, the application of porous ceramics in some field is limited by very large.
At present, solve the conventional method of problem that above-mentioned porous ceramics exists and have two kinds: a kind of is the stupalith that directly preparation has density gradient.As Boeing has prepared the silicon nitride material with density gradient, the structure of this material is divided into two-layer: low density (0.5~1.8g/cm
3) nitride porous silicon materials be sandwich layer, top layer is highdensity silicon nitride material.Israel develops a kind of low density (1.0~2.2g/cm
3) nitride porous silicon layer and high-density (2.8~3.2g/cm
3) silicon nitride material that silicon nitride layer is composited, this mechanical strength is high, can resistance to 1600 ℃ of high temperature.But this mode is unfavorable for preparing the sample of complicated shape.And a lot of stupaliths are difficult to realize at low temperatures densification sintering.Another kind is at porous ceramic surface, to prepare the fine and close ceramic coating of one deck.The mode of preparation coating is as chemical vapour deposition (CVD), sol-gel method etc.Adopting CVD method is mainly the Si in the densification of porous ceramic surface deposition one deck

4c coating.After deposition, the water absorption decreased of porous matrix 95%~99.82%, bending strength has improved 13.6%~24.4%.And adopt CVD legal system for coating, and sedimentation effect is low, and cost is high, and is difficult to deposit at the matrix surface of complicated shape; Sol-gel method is mainly to prepare oxide ceramic coating at porous ceramic surface, but this kind of method efficiency is low, and technological process is loaded down with trivial details, and the interface of coating and matrix is wayward.Therefore the ceramic coating that, adopts above method to prepare porous ceramic surface is difficult for realizing industrial applications.
Slip spraying is a kind of conventional method of preparing ceramic coating.Spray angle is more flexible, can prepare ceramic coating at the matrix surface of complicated shape.And preparation technology is simple, cost is low, and efficiency is high, is convenient to industrial applications.The patent of the number of patent application 201210396094.X of people's applications such as Wang Hongjie adopts the technique of slip spraying at the mono-layer oxidized powder of porous ceramic matrices suitable surface deposition, through oversintering, has prepared fine and close oxide ceramic coating.But this oxide ceramic coating be take glassy phase as main, and its hardness is lower, and the ability of Anti-erosion is poor.Conventionally, adopting slip spraying coating process to prepare non-oxide ceramic coatings is that non-oxide ceramics powder and the oxide powder as sintering aid are mixed, and sprays to afterwards matrix surface.In this method, sintering aid can first form liquid phase in sintering process, thereby realizes the liquid phase sintering of ceramic coating.But can there is very large volumetric shrinkage in sintering process in coating, cause coating and MATRIX CRACKING, layering, and produce the defects such as pore.Meanwhile, because porous matrix has very strong adsorptive power, liquid phase is easy to penetrate into the inside of porous matrix, and coat-thickness is difficult to control.Affect on the one hand the performance of matrix, affect on the other hand the compactness of coating.
Summary of the invention
The shortcoming existing in order to overcome above-mentioned prior art, the present invention proposes a kind of structure and preparation method of porous ceramic matrices suitable surface compact ceramic coating, solve liquid phase and infiltrated the excessively dark problem of porous matrix, can prepare fine and close ceramic coating on high porosity ceramic matrix surface, and this preparation method has simply, flexibly, efficient and be easy to the feature of industrial applications.
