Technical Field
The superfine powder material for the ceramic capacitor mainly comprises important parts such as superfine functional ceramic powder material, electrode slurry and the like; the superfine functional ceramic powder material occupies the main production and manufacturing cost and directly influences the manufacturing process and application effect of the ceramic capacitor.
With the development of ceramic capacitors, especially chip multilayer ceramic capacitors, toward miniaturization and high capacitance ratio. The requirements for developing dielectric ceramic superfine powder materials are becoming more and more demanding. The dielectric ceramic material for the ceramic capacitor is required to be characterized by easy production, low cost, good stability, easy industrialization and the like.
At present, ceramic electrodes are preparedThe dielectric ceramic superfine powder material for the container is AB3The structure of O perovskite titanate series is a main framework, and particularly barium titanate functional ceramic materials are used as the preferred main materials for the chip type multilayer ceramic capacitor. In the preparation process, barium titanate base (main ceramic powder material) as a main component and formula base (rare earth metal and alkaline earth metal oxide or carbonate) as an auxiliary component are subjected to solid-liquid mixing and separation to remove metal ions doped in the powder material, and after solid-liquid separation and impurity removal, the powder is stirred or ground to be uniformly dispersed, and then dried and formed to obtain the dielectric ceramic ultrafine powder for the ceramic capacitor.
If the barium titanate-based raw powder is not washed, unknown alkaline earth metal ions, such as sodium, potassium and other metal elements, are contained in the barium titanate base, accurate and effective formula calculation is difficult to perform in the formula due to the existence of the ions, and the dielectric property, loss and volume value change rate of the prepared perovskite salt are seriously influenced due to the introduction of impurities; therefore, it is necessary to remove a trace amount of metal ion elements by washing.
In the prior art, a technology and a management mode for improving the purity of raw materials and controlling metal equipment in a non-contact mode are mostly adopted, but the product cost is easily increased, and meanwhile, impurities are difficult to avoid being introduced or brought in the production and manufacturing process due to the fact that the control level is different. In addition, a mode of adding a flocculating agent or a dispersing agent is adopted to flocculate the nano-scale particles and then carry out solid-liquid separation, but in such a mode, impurity ions can be inevitably introduced, so that the problem of agglomeration of the flocculated powder slurry in the drying process is solved, the application performance of the functional ceramic powder is further influenced, and the functional ceramic powder has no excellent competitive advantage.
