A kind of method preparing Alpha-alumina
Technical field
The invention belongs to metal oxide preparation field, be specifically related to a kind of preparation method of Alpha-alumina.
Background technology
Alpha-alumina is a kind of form of low-temperature oxidation aluminium, and the aluminium hydroxide hyperthermia drying that it adopts purity high is usually formed.Alpha-alumina is generally obtained by calcinations of aluminum hydroxide or alumina preparation, but could all be converted into gamma oxidation aluminium powder when needing sintering oven to reach 1400 DEG C, and required power consumption is large, and cost increases, and is unfavorable for large-scale production.And this process is strict to temperature control requirement, otherwise not only also have part θ phase containing γ phase in product, very large impact is existed for subsequent processes.
It is dissolution medium that patent documentation CN1065255 discloses with hydrochloric acid, the aluminum-containing mineral through calcination process is added hydrochloric acid and reacts, obtain alkaline aluminium salt, through being separated desiliconization.Alkaline aluminium salt after being separated is carried out inspissation, roasting to 700 ~ 800 DEG C, produces gama-alumina, obtain product Alpha-alumina by 1100 DEG C of calcinings.But the method only can obtain the aluminum oxide of technical purity, cannot meet the preparation of more highly purified aluminum oxide.
Patent documentation CN103241754A discloses a kind of production method of high-purity alpha-alumina, comprise and prepare exsiccated ammonium alum, exsiccated ammonium alum recrystallization, produce the regeneration of high purity aluminium oxide and exhaust collection and ammonium sulfate, it is first by aluminium hydroxide and sulfuric acid extracting sulfuric acid aluminium ammonium, again recrystallization high purity exsiccated ammonium alum is carried out to exsiccated ammonium alum, then generate γ-Al by low temperature dewatering and middle temperature decomposing and calcining

At present, the transformation of crystalline phase when preparing aluminum oxide for aluminium hydroxide, there is not unified viewpoint in academia.As " hydrated aluminum oxide crystalline phase change at different temperatures prepared by the precipitator method " thinks that the temperature that exists of gama-alumina is 800-900 DEG C, there is temperature and be then more than 1000 DEG C in Alpha-alumina, and other people research shows that gama-alumina occurs after 500 or 600 DEG C, but it should be noted that aluminum oxide have 8 kinds of crystal form: χ-, η-, γ-, δ-, κ-, θ-, ρ-, α-Al

Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to propose a kind of energy-conservation, high-level efficiency, maintenance purity and phase transformation transformation efficiency is the method for 100% novel sintered alpha-aluminium oxide powder.
Method of the present invention comprises:
1) aluminum oxide is warming up to 1220-1260 DEG C in 1-6h;
2) adjusting temperature is 1220-1260 DEG C, and maintains this temperature calcination 2-5h;
3) in 2-4h, 100-200 DEG C is cooled to.
Preferably, described step 1) comprise following heating step: described step 1) comprise following heating step: in 1-3h, be warming up to 800-950 DEG C, after heat up in 1-3h and reach 1200-1220 DEG C.
Preferably, described step 1) in the speed of aluminum oxide one 245-255 DEG C/h be elevated to 800-950 DEG C, after reach 1200-1220 DEG C with the ramp of 135-145 DEG C, the aluminum oxide of finished product grain size at 6.0-6.5um can be obtained.
Preferably, described step 1) in aluminum oxide with the ramp of 225-235 DEG C/h to 800-950 DEG C, after reach 1200-1220 DEG C with the ramp of 145-155 DEG C, the aluminum oxide of finished product grain size at 6.5-7.0um can be obtained.
Preferably, described step 1) in aluminum oxide with the ramp of 255-265 DEG C/h to 800-950 DEG C, after reach 1200-1220 DEG C with the ramp of 125-145 DEG C, the aluminum oxide of finished product grain size at 5.0-5.5um can be obtained.
