In the spray granulation process, small liquid drops formed by atomizing the second slurry through the nozzle of the spray gun fall after reaching a certain height, and moisture in the liquid drops volatilizes in the process and forms spheroidal granulation powder after drying. When the inlet temperature is higher than that of the invention, the liquid volatilizes at the highest speed to cause the water to be separated from the powder rapidly, the granulation powder is cracked due to rapid heating to form powder with poor sphericity, which is not beneficial to improving the apparent density. When the inlet temperature is lower than that of the present invention, the granulated powder does not have enough heat to rapidly shrink into a compact cellular shape, but forms a loose spherical granulated powder, which reduces the loose packing density.
The method can obtain the erythrocyte-shaped granulated powder with compact internal structure, and the powder in the granulated powder is more tightly packed although the middle of the granulated powder has larger holes, so that the loose density can be effectively improved to 0.92g/cm3Meanwhile, the holes in the middle of the granulated powder are beneficial to exhausting gas in the pressing process and reducing gasThe biscuit crack is less generated.

Adding the prepared first slurry into a stirring mill, stirring for 1h, adding a glue solution, continuously stirring for 1h, adding a dispersing agent to control the viscosity of the slurry to be 3000 mPa.s to obtain a second slurry with good dispersibility and fluidity, wherein the temperature of the second slurry is 30 ℃, a pressure type spray gun is adopted, the pressure of a feed pump is 880MPa, the aperture of a spray sheet is 0.9mm, the thickness of a rotary sheet is 2.5mm, the inlet temperature is 280 ℃, and spray granulation is carried out to obtain granulation powder. The ratio of PVA to PEG mass was 0.18.
The bulk densities of the silicon nitride granulated powders of each of the examples and comparative examples were tested with reference to GB 1479-84, and each of the silicon nitride granulated powders was pressed into a biscuit, the bulk densities and the biscuit masses being shown in Table 1. Biscuit pressing conditions: biscuit pressing the prepared granulated powder by using a mould with a certain shape in a cold isostatic pressing way, wherein the pressing pressure is 300MPa, the pressure maintaining time is 60s, the pressure relief rate is controlled at 1MPa/s,
TABLE 1 apparent density and use of silicon nitride granulated powder in examples and comparative examples
Examples Apparent density g/cm3 Green body cracking condition
Example 1 0.936 Is free of
Example 2 0.929 Is free of
Example 3 0.922 Is free of
Comparative example 1 0.925 Is provided with
Comparative example 2 0.912 Is free of
Comparative example 3 0.885 Is free of
As can be seen from Table 1, the silicon nitride ceramic granulated powder with a low PVA/PEG ratio and a high inlet temperature selected by the invention has higher apparent density and no biscuit cracks than those of comparative examples 1-3; the reason is that although comparative example 1 has a high apparent density, the excessive addition of PEG causes a decrease in the rigidity of the binder at low temperatures and a decrease in the binding power, while comparative example 2 has a small addition of PEG and poor fluidity of PVA molecules, and the granulated powder is hard to shrink into a compact shell during spray drying, but forms a loose apple shape, and comparative example 3 has a low inlet temperature of the spray granulation tower and does not have sufficient heat to shrink into a compact cellular shape rapidly, but forms a loose spherical granulated powder.
In addition, when the inlet temperature is higher than 340 ℃, the granulated powder can be cracked due to rapid heating, and powder with poor sphericity is formed, which is not beneficial to the pressing of subsequent biscuit.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, various modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
