Based on N3-Preparation of CA with excellent slag resistance by ion doping6Based refractoriesMethod for preparing material
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of inorganic non-metallic materials, and particularly relates to N3-Ion-doped CA6Materials and methods for their preparation.
Background
In the field of refractories for ferrous metallurgy, calcium hexaluminate (CA)6) Mainly exists in the form of reaction products, is formed by the reaction of aluminate cement combined with corundum or corundum-spinel during the high-temperature use process, and is inserted between a corundum phase and a spinel phase. Due to CA6The material has the characteristics of high melting point, high stability, excellent slag resistance and the like, so that the mechanical property and the slag corrosion resistance of the material are obviously improved.
Based on the data display, CA6The cells are composed of spinel blocks and mirror layers, which are alternately stacked to form a layered structure, each cell being composed of two spinel blocks and two mirror layers in which the mirror layer structure is loosened due to the support of large cations. Thus in CA6In the structure of (1), oxygen ions are more easily diffused in the direction perpendicular to the c-axis, and the spinel-based block units in the c-axis direction are separated by the mirror layer, so that the growth of crystals in the c-axis direction is suppressed, and therefore, the diffusion efficiency of ions in the c-axis direction is relatively low, which also results in CA6Plain Al2O3Like the oxides, the higher bulk density is easily achieved by elevated temperatures, and reaction-sintered CA is difficult to achieve even at sintering temperatures up to 1750 deg.C6The full density of (c). The relatively porous structure facilitates slag penetration into the refractory matrix, which limits CA to a large extent6The method is applied to the fields of metallurgy and petrifaction.
In addition, nitride-based materials have characteristics of high melting point and poor wettability with molten metals and oxides, and bond length of tetrahedral Al — N bond (AlN is, in AlN, Al — N bond)
) Almost equivalent to tetrahedral Al-O bond (CA)
