Description
Technical field
The invention belongs to new energy materials field, relate to a kind of method efficiently preparing skutterudite thermoelectric material.
Background technology
Thermoelectric generation utilizes the Seebeck effect of semi-conducting material directly to convert heat energy into electric energy, has system body
The feature such as long-pending little, compact conformation, no-movable part, non-maintaining, noiselessness, and life-span length high without discharge, reliability, visits at deep space
Survey and obtain important application on power supply and extraordinary Military Power, at solar photoelectric-thermoelectricity compound power-generating, the remaining used heat of industry
Particularly waste heat of automotive exhaust gas recovery thermo-electric generation aspect has broad application prospects and potential economic and social benefits, and having can
The important component part (Science 283:804,1999) of world today's energy crisis solution can be become.
The conversion efficiency of thermoelectric of thermo-electric generation system depends on the performance of thermoelectric semiconductor material, leads to the immeasurable of common used material
Guiding principle performance figure of merit ZT characterizes, ZT=α2σ T/ κ, α are Seebeck coefficients, and σ is electrical conductivity, and T is operating temperature, and κ is thermal conductivity.
Thermoelectric material of good performance should have high power factor (α2σ) and lower thermal conductivity.But, due to thermoelectricity parameter (α, σ, κ)
Interrelated, it is difficult to optimize obtain high zt, so the ZT value of the thermoelectric material of actual application is about 1 simultaneously.CoSb3Base side
Cobalt ore is an apoplexy due to endogenous wind temperature (~600 DEG C) high performance thermoelectric material, and has good high-temperature stability and machinability, is recognized
For being the thermoelectric material being most possibly applied to the remaining Waste Heat Recovery thermo-electric generation of the industry such as vehicle exhaust.
In recent years, for skutterudite preparation means, there is correlational study report.One is direct mechanical alloying,
(CN02147869) disclosing one, to utilize high-energy ball milling (180~350r/min, 8~11h) to combine short time high temperature annealing treatment
The method that reason (650 DEG C~750 DEG C, 1~3h) prepares skutterudite, when shortening high temperature isothermal annealing by pre-mechanical alloying
Between, reduce production cost.From thermodynamic (al) angle, but ma process is CoSb3Formed mutually and decompose the most competing
The process striven, has the existence of impurity peaks all the time, and utilizes the preparation of this method to there is the risk introducing abrasive media.Document recently
(Journal of Materials Chemistry A 2 (2014) 17914) reports and utilizes the method for self-propagating quickly to prepare
Thermoelectric material.This method is in bulk of first being colded pressing by the powder body sample of certain stoichiometric proportion, lights in one end subsequently, utilizes between element
The heat of chemical reaction release maintains the transmission of combustion wave, makes overall specimen reaction, obtains material requested.This method is no doubt simple,
Required energy input is also only initial end and lights, but local response sintering is it is difficult to ensure that the uniformity of overall composition, and side
Adiabatic temperature (the T of cobalt ore reactionad) less than low melting point phase (Tm,L) fusing point, with (the Nature Communication of document before
5 (2014) 4908) maintenance reaction criterion T proposedad/Tm,L> 1 is not inconsistent.Additionally since factors such as kinetics of diffusions, utilize simple substance
Co and simple substance Sb is difficult to be directly synthesized and obtains CoSb3Pure phase, and sample needs pre-molding, so initial powder is required ratio
Higher.
Utilizing liquid phase melted is also a kind of traditional preparation method with after-baking to obtain skutterudite mutually.The system of skutterudite
Standby generally with the high-purity elemental metals of certain stoichiometric proportion as raw material, melted in the environment of vacuum or inert atmosphere,
Each element is made uniformly to mix, subsequently rapid quenching condensation, the uniform admixture (Co-Sb of atom when retaining high temperature as far as possible
Phasor, needs to experience two peritectic reaction processes mutually from melt cooling formation skutterudite and there is a certain degree of peritectoid segregation), then
End product is obtained through subsequent heat treatment.Therefore after cooling, the peritectoid segregation yardstick of ingot casting determines the difficulty or ease forming skutterudite
Degree and the uniformity of filling atom distribution, document (Journal of Electronic Materials 44 (2015) 1890-
1895) showing, the Co-Sb peritectoid segregation effect produced in During Quenching will be inherited in preparation process subsequently, becomes
One very important influence factor of microstructure evolution.Comparing little melt volume samples, big melt volume samples segregation degree is relatively
For seriously, segregation yardstick increases, it means that will increase the expansion of component (Yb, Co, and Sb) in the technique of after annealing
Dissipate journey, hinder the formation of single filled skutterudite phase, remaining CoSb2, YbSb2Deng dephasign, cause the reduction of final thermoelectricity capability.
Utilizing increases subsequent heat treatment time and temperature and increases atoms permeating activation energy to eliminate segregation, is power consumption poor efficiency, increases system
The behavior of standby cost.Therefore, in exploitation large-scale production process, how controlling Co-Sb peritectoid segregation will be the key prepared.
Melted rotation is got rid of technique and is achieved the mixing of element even in liquid phase and that Large Copacity melt cooling is changed into continuous line is cold
Solidifying, obtain amorphous and nanocrystal gets rid of band.Later use discharge plasma sintering technique (SPS) synthesis skutterudite phase.Patent
(CN101435029) a kind of method preparing Yb filled skutterudite material is disclosed, 20~30 hours quenching preparation mothers of melted synthesis
Alloy, is then placed in foundry alloy melt rotation and gets rid of in equipment, sensing heating remelting, and melt rotation is got rid of, and obtains amorphous/nanocrystalline and is combined
The strand of product of structure, powder process tabletting, subsequently SPS (550 DEG C, be incubated 5min), it is thus achieved that N-shaped Yb filled skutterudite maximum ZT value reaches
To 1.3.Patent (CN101693962) discloses the preparation method of a kind of p-type filled skutterudite material, weighs simple substance in glove box
Raw material, encapsulates tabletting, is placed in melt rotation and gets rid of in equipment, high-frequency induction heating~5 seconds, repeats to ensure that bath composition is equal for 3~5 times
. even, melt rotation is got rid of, and obtains the strand of product of amorphous/nanocrystalline composite construction, powder process tabletting, subsequently SPS (530 DEG C, insulation
5min), it is thus achieved that pure phase block materials;These two kinds of methods are required to the melt rotation of costliness and get rid of equipment, and foundry alloy reflow process
In be sample to be carried out entirety add heat fusing, there is bigger Sb phase and volatilize, be difficult to accurately control when carrying out scale and preparing
The component content of final block sample, causes material property to fluctuate.
Summary of the invention
For the problems referred to above, the invention provides a kind of composition controlled, preparation cost is low, the efficient preparation side cobalt that the cycle is short
