One of the present invention provides a kind of can the conduction, can improve anti-molten metal attack again, and the crucible that scribbles titanium diboride coating of long service life.
Another object of the present invention provides a kind of preparation and can conduct electricity, and can improve anti-molten metal attack again, and the method that scribbles the titanium diboride coating crucible of long service life.
In order to realize one of foregoing invention purpose; the present invention scribbles the crucible of titanium diboride coating; refractory metal crucible body with a band groove; its characteristics are: be coated with titanium diboride coating on the inwall of described crucible groove, partly or entirely be coated with aluminium sesquioxide or silicon dioxide insulator protective layer in the top wall surface of described crucible body.
The thickness range that is coated on the titanium diboride coating on the described crucible groove inwall is 0.2~2mm.
Being coated on the aluminium sesquioxide of described crucible top wall surface or the thickness range of silicon dioxide insulator protective layer is: 0.1~1.0mm.
Here the refractory metal of indication is the metal that tungsten, molybdenum, tantalum etc. are fit to do crucible.
Employing tungsten has been described in the background technology of front, molybdenum, refractory metals such as tantalum can be used as the crucible of fusing than low melting point metal, but can produce reaction with the intermetallic of manufacturing crucible owing to be melted metal, or alloying or fusion, and the refractory metal crucible is etched rapidly, pot life is short, make deposite metal or evaporated metal contaminated, and oxide compound, though nitride crucible or its composite crucible can overcome above-mentioned deficiency, but its poorly conductive, be unsuitable for doing the electrode crucible, and select for use TiB2 to make crucible coating layer, its reason is that TiB2 has the fusing point height, reaches 2930 ℃, conduct electricity very well, ρ room temperature=12 μ ncm, and advantage such as chemical stability is good, and wear resistance is strong, the refractory metal crucible that scribbles TiB2 itself can be used as negative electrode or the anode in the electrode, thereby crucible of the present invention can be conducted electricity, and don't can manufacture and produce reaction between the metal of crucible and institute deposite metal, alloying or fusion, and as copper crucible, need need not water-cooled.
Top wall surface at crucible scribbles insulating protective layers such as aluminium sesquioxide or silicon-dioxide, is in order to guarantee under the situation of crucible as electrode, prevents the starting the arc of crucible outer and pollutes the metal or alloy that is melted, and can prolong the life-span of described crucible simultaneously.
In order to realize another object of the present invention, the present invention's preparation scribbles the method for titanium diboride coating, comprises following several steps:
(a) get the crucible body that the refractory metal that is suitable for doing crucible is processed into the band groove;
(b) TiB2 is coated on the inwall of described crucible groove, until being coated on till TiB2 on the crucible groove inwall reaches desired thickness;
(c) aluminium sesquioxide or silicon-dioxide partly or entirely are coated on the top wall surface of described crucible, till the aluminium sesquioxide that is coated on the crucible top wall surface or silicon-dioxide reach desired thickness.
Here to be coated on the desired thickness of titanium diboride coating on the described crucible groove inwall be 0.2~2mm to indication.
The aluminium sesquioxide or the desired thickness of silicon-dioxide that are coated on described crucible top wall surface are: 0.1~1.0mm.
Compared with prior art, the advantage of crucible of the present invention is:
(1) the molten-metal-resistant aggressiveness is good, because crucible of the present invention adopts TiB2 to make the groove inside coating, the TiB2 fusing point is up to 2930 ℃, and chemical stability is good, wear resistance is good, titanium diboride coating can not produce reaction, alloying or fusion with being melted intermetallic, so the anti-molten metal attack of crucible of the present invention is good.
(2) good conductivity, therefore electricalresistivity's room temperature of TiB2=12 μ ncm is body with the refractory metal, is that the crucible of coating has good electrical conductivity with the TiB2.
(3) need not water-cooled, the present invention compares with the copper crucible that adopts water-cooled, and power consumption is low, plated film purity height.
(4) long service life, when using tungsten, molybdenum or graphite to make electrode crucible evaporation metal nickel, the content of tungsten, molybdenum or carbon is higher in the plated film, crucible only uses several times, and when using crucible nickel plating of the present invention, plated film purity height, foreign matter content is low, and crucible can use tens times to tens times.
The embodiment that the present invention's preparation has titanium diboride coating is:
(1) get the crucible body that tungsten, molybdenum or tantalum are processed into the band groove, its size and shape are decided according to concrete purposes;
(2) use E44 Resins, epoxy with titanium diboride powder furnishing pasty state, the weight ratio of Resins, epoxy and TiB2 is 0.1~1;
(3) crucible groove inwall is sprayed noisy, cleaning, make its inwall for there not being oily, dustless hair side;
(4) the pasty state TiB2 is coated on the crucible inwall, its thickness is 0.2~2mm as required;
(5) treat that the pasty state titanium diboride coating after crucible groove inwall solidifies, carries out vacuum high-temperature sintering again, make the organism volatilization, be warming up to 1300 ℃ of sintering then 1~4 hour;
(6) top wall surface at crucible partly or entirely applies aluminium sesquioxide or silica slurry, and its thickness is as required: 0.1~1.0mm;
(7) treat aluminium sesquioxide or silica slurry seasoning after, through vacuum high-temperature oven dry or atmosphere hyperthermia drying, wherein bake out temperature is 300~800 ℃ again, the time is 0.5~2 hour;
During (8) if necessary as the electrode crucible, all apply aluminium sesquioxide or silicon dioxide insulator protective layer, then should remove described insulating protective layer at the position that connects power supply in described crucible top wall surface.
According to above-mentioned concrete implementation step, prepared three batches of crucibles, the composition of three batches of crucibles is as shown in table 1, and the performance of three batches of crucibles is as shown in table 2.
