A kind of preparation method of super high temperature zirconia ceramic fiber
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of zirconia ceramics fiber, particularly a kind of preparation method of super high temperature zirconia ceramic fiber, belong to insulation, technical field of refractory materials.
Background technology
The physicochemical properties of the excellences such as zirconia has fusing point high (2715 DEG C), high-temperature steam forces down, corrosion-resistant, anti-oxidant, have a wide range of applications as heat insulating refractory material in high-temperature field more than 1700 DEG C, generally adopt the form of hollow ball brick to use at present.Hollow ball brick is compared with crystal fibre, and thermal conductivity factor is large, and thermal capacitance is high, and heat insulation effect is poor.But traditional mullite crystal fiber and the maximum operation (service) temperature of alpha-alumina crystals fiber only have 1400 DEG C and 1600 DEG C, cannot the hot environment more than 1700 DEG C use, and complete stable cubic phase zircite crystal fibre is just a kind of fibrous material that can meet the use of this type of hyperthermal environments.Although zirconia has above-mentioned numerous advantage, but because zirconia exists three kinds of crystalline phases, monoclinic phase, Tetragonal and Emission in Cubic, each other certain stable under can mutually transform, and with bulk effect (7%-9%), cause the Zirconium oxide fibre without stabilization processes to rupture, efflorescence, has a strong impact on its high-temperature resistance and service life.The transforming relationship of the various crystalline phase of zirconia is as follows:
Zirconia ceramics has to pass through stabilization processes could form the stable goods of geomery; Also appropriate stabilizing agent must be added in Zirconium oxide fibre and high performance goods could be obtained.Research finds: Y
3+add and can replace Zr
4+cATION forms substitution solid solution, thus stops crystal transfer, makes Emission in Cubic or Tetragonal at room temperature keep getting off, allows fiber be in stable state, to improve the stability in use of crystal fibre.The yittrium oxide adding more than 9% molar fraction in zirconia can obtain entirely stable Emission in Cubic, and the ceramic fibre of its correspondence has best high-temperature stability, and service life is also the longest.
At present, some common inorfils adopt fusion method as the suitability for industrialized production of alumina silicate fibre, quartz fibre, glass fibre etc., namely directly raw material is adopted resistance furnace or electric arc furnaces heating and melting, obtain staple fibre through centrifugal drying silk or air flow blowing, the fiber generally produced with fusion method all belongs to noncrystalline fiber.Because zirconia fusing point is too high, its fiber cannot adopt direct fusion method to prepare.Up to now, the preparation of zirconia crystal fiber mainly contains infusion process, mixing method and sol-gel process.
Infusion process: in the zirconium oxychloride that viscose (as hydrate cellulose) or whole fabric are immersed in 2M ~ 2.5M or zirconyl nitrate solution, soak 3h ~ 6h in 20-25 DEG C to take out, the material of such process is dry in atmosphere, then pyrolysis and calcining is carried out, volatilization organic component, obtains the Zirconium oxide fibre with certain TENSILE STRENGTH.Infusion process is more convenient, but the high uneven fibre structure of the obtained fiber porosity is loose, intensity is lower, poor-performing, and the production cycle is long.
Mixing method: be mixed with mixed solution with organic polymer (as polyvinyl alcohol) and the particle diameter additive Preparation of Fine Powders such as zirconates and yittrium oxide within the specific limits.The method (as centrifugal drying silk method, spinning head method, air flow blowing spinning etc.) that spinning is conventional, then sinters, is solidified into fiber.Mixing method technics comparing is complicated, simultaneously Y
3+be difficult to replace Zr uniformly etc. CATION
4+cATION forms substitution solid solution, is not easy to obtain complete stable cubic phase crystal fibre and consumes the energy greatly, generally not adopting in production.
Colloidal sol spin processes: by the colloidal sol of sol-gel process synthesis containing zirconium polymerization long-chain, utilize dry spinning, the fiber be spun into drying on spinning roller becomes gelatinous fibre, heat-treat (effect is removing volatile component), the fiber that then calcined oxide thing skeleton obtains has good mechanical performance.In the spinning presoma that this method obtains, zirconium content is high, spinning properties good, without the need to adding other auxiliary agent, there is not the defect remaining because auxiliary agent decomposes, just can obtain the zirconia crystal fiber with higher-strength through calcined crystallization in calcination process.Colloidal sol spin processes technique is simple and convenient, and obtained fibre composition is single, the good and even thickness of continuity.Unique shortcoming is that the fiber porosity is high, but colloidal sol spin processes is widely used at present.The method that this patent adopts is just sol-gel processing.
Calendar year 2001, the proper carat Ba Di of India, proper special lucky grade is being called (Zirconiafibrematspreparedbyasol-gelspinningtechniche in " sol-gel technique prepares Zirconium oxide fibre felt ", P.K.Chakrabarty, M.Chatterjee, etal, " JournalOftheEuropeanCeramicSociety ", 2001, (21), P355-361.) method utilizing sol-gel process to prepare Zirconium oxide fibre felt is reported: acetic acid peptization hydrous zirconium oxide(HZO) obtains colloidal sol, mix yttrium nitrate used as stabilizers, utilize multi-holed jet spinning, obtain cancellated gelatinous fibre felt, 150 DEG C of dry 1h, be heat-treated to 1300 DEG C again, obtain fibre diameter 10 μm, the round pie Zirconium oxide fibre felt that thickness is indefinite.But colloidal sol spinning solution poor stability prepared by the method, easy gelation and losing efficacy; Spun gelatinous fibre bonds mutually because water is wet, and can only obtain cancellated fibrofelt after calcining, range of application is narrow.
2004, the people such as Shandong University Xu Dong applied for a patent: Zirconium oxide fibre cotton (patent No. ZL200410024264.7) prepared by organic poly-zirconium precursor body spinning solution.Adopt methyl alcohol to make solvent in patent, utilize zirconium oxychloride, acetylacetone,2,4-pentanedione, triethylamine to generate containing zirconium organic polymer soln for raw material directly reacts under 0 DEG C ~ 50 DEG C and stirring condition; Evaporate to dryness methyl alcohol is that dissolution with solvents DDGS filters insoluble matter triethylamine hydrochloride with oxolane; Reclaim oxolane, the product obtained and yttrium salt (mixing the yttrium nitrate used as stabilizers being equivalent to zirconia yittrium oxide=92% ~ 99%:1% ~ 8% mol ratio) are dissolved in methyl alcohol preparation spinning solution, get rid of silk through high speed centrifugation and obtain containing zirconium organic polymer fiber.But prepared by this patent is the cellucotton of Tetragonal or Tetragonal, Emission in Cubic mixing, the easy efflorescence of high temperature, and service life is short, can only use by the environment below 1600 DEG C, the solvent that this patent uses simultaneously is methyl alcohol, and very large to the physical impairment of operator, the meaning of practical application is less.
2009, Shandong University applied for a patent: the preparation method (patent No. ZL200910013781.7) of complete stable cubic phase zircite crystal fibre.Adopt absolute ethyl alcohol to be retarder thinner in patent, utilize zirconium oxychloride, acetylacetone,2,4-pentanedione, triethylamine to generate containing zirconium organic polymer soln for raw material directly reacts under 0 DEG C ~ 50 DEG C and stirring condition; Evaporate to dryness ethanol, is dissolution with solvents DDGS with acetone, filters insoluble matter triethylamine hydrochloride; Reclaim acetone, the product obtained and yttrium salt (mixing the yttrium nitrate used as stabilizers being equivalent to zirconia yittrium oxide=80% ~ 91%:9% ~ 20% mol ratio) are dissolved in ethanol preparation spinning solution, get rid of silk through high speed centrifugation and obtain containing zirconium organic polymer fiber; , take the heat treatment of special atmosphere and superhigh temperature process to containing zirconium organic polymer fiber and get final product.The raw material Alternative that this patent adopts is complicated, causes the high cost of fiber.
