Description

Silver-tungsten electric contact material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a preparation method of an electric contact composite material in the technical field of materials, in particular to a novel silver-tungsten electric contact material and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Silver-tungsten composite materials are one of the electrical contact materials widely used at present. Because the mechanical property and the electric contact property of pure silver are insufficient, in order to meet the use requirement of the electric contact material, other reinforcements are added to prepare the silver-based electric contact material by compounding with the silver. Tungsten is widely used as an optimal reinforcement for high current silver-based electrical contact materials. However, tungstate is generated in the process of switching on and off of a large current by the silver-tungsten material, and the tungstate is an electrical poor conductor, so that the contact resistance of the contact is increased, the temperature rise of the contact is increased, and finally fusion welding of the contact is caused to cause switch failure. The poor wettability of silver to tungsten leads to poor material interface bonding, which causes the increase of interface resistance and the reduction of material performance.
Graphene has attracted attention as a new carbon due to its excellent electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and high strength. Although the research development of the graphene reinforced metal matrix composite material is slow, the excellent electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of the graphene bring a great revolution to the improvement of the properties of the metal matrix composite material. The combination of the graphene and the traditional reinforcement is also a key for the significant breakthrough of the graphene, and the defects of the traditional material are made up by using certain properties of the graphene, so that the traditional material is optimized and improved.
The Chinese patent with publication number CN 105798319A provides a method and a device for preparing a silver-tungsten electrical contact material, which applies an in-situ synthesis method to prepare raw material powder of the silver-tungsten electrical contact, and the powder preparation engineering comprises the working procedures of material preparation, replacement reaction, separation, drying and reduction; and sintering to obtain the silver-tungsten composite material. The electric contact material is obtained, wherein the silver powder has uniform particle size, small particle size and easy regulation, and the silver powder and the tungsten particle film layer form compact combination. The invention does not improve the interface combination of silver and tungsten essentially, but directly compounds silver and tungsten, only changes the compound mode, and the prepared silver and tungsten material still has the problem of poor density. Meanwhile, the welding resistance of the silver-tungsten material is not improved.
The Chinese patent with the publication number of CN 104480335B provides a preparation method of a silver-tungsten contact material. Mixing silver powder and tungsten powder, placing the obtained silver-tungsten mixed powder, high-purity nickel balls and water in a ball mill for ball milling, and drying, annealing, forming and infiltrating the obtained ball-milled silver-tungsten mixed powder. The invention puts the silver-tungsten mixed powder, the high-purity nickel balls and the water into a ball mill according to a specific proportion to perform ball milling for a specific time, thereby not only enabling the mixing of the silver powder and the tungsten powder to be more uniform, but also realizing the simultaneous ball milling and the introduction of nickel elements, and enabling the nickel lost by the ball milling on the high-purity nickel balls to be uniformly covered on the surfaces of tungsten particles, thereby achieving the purpose of effectively improving the wettability of the silver on the tungsten. The invention patent considers the interface bonding of silver and tungsten, but still has some problems. According to the invention, the ball milling medium is water, the high-purity nickel balls are abraded by the hard particle tungsten in the ball milling process to obtain the micro-nano nickel powder, the micro-nano nickel powder is oxidized in the water by high temperature generated in the ball milling process to generate nickel oxide, and the nickel oxide and the tungsten cannot be combined, so that the tungsten particles covered by the nickel cannot be obtained. In addition, an interface improving element nickel is introduced in a grinding ball mode, the obtained nickel particles are irregular in shape, the nickel content is extremely difficult to control, the requirements in the field of electric contact cannot be met, and the nickel particles cannot be stably produced and applied in a large scale.
Therefore, the production process means with good interface combination, good fusion welding resistance, environmental protection, low cost and good controllability is used for realizing the preparation of the high-performance silver-tungsten electric contact material, and has important industrial upgrading value.
