Description

Graphene-based silver-saving electrical contact material and manufacturing method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of electrical materials, particularly the field of electrical contact materials, and relates to a graphene-based silver-saving electrical contact material and a manufacturing method thereof.
Background
The electrical contact material can be roughly divided into the following low-voltage electrical contact material, medium-voltage and high-voltage electrical contact material, vacuum contact material and weak electrical contact material according to application. The low-voltage contact material is a silver-based electrical contact material which basically uses noble metal silver as a matrix. It requires electrical contact materials with high electrical conductivity, low contact resistance, high thermal conductivity, abrasion resistance, impact resistance, and reliable chemistry. The electric contact material has been used for more than 100 years, and pure silver, pure gold and pure platinum are used as the raw materials of the electric contact. The alloys of Ag-Cu, PtI-Ag and Pd-Ag were used in the beginning of the 40 s, and multi-element noble metals and various noble metal composites were developed since the 60 s. The maximum application range of the silver-based electrical contact material is far higher than that of other electrical contact materials. The metal silver has high electrical conductivity, good thermal conductivity, reliable chemical stability under atmospheric conditions and good oxidation resistance. Although the comprehensive physical properties of silver are most suitable for preparing the electrical contact material, silver is a noble metal and is expensive and has poor mineral resources, and the silver-based electrical contact material needs a large amount of silver as a raw material and is too expensive.
The electrical contact is one of the core components of electrical switches and instruments and meters, and is mainly responsible for the important tasks of breaking and connecting circuits and load currents. The requirements of electrical contact materials are manifold, i.e. they have good electrical and thermal conductivity, low and stable contact resistance, high resistance to erosion, welding and good mechanical strength. The silver metal has good electric conduction and heat conduction performance and good oxidation resistance, and is the most main electric contact material at the present stage. However, due to the scarcity of silver resources, high price and extremely high cost, the development of silver-free/less silver-saving electrical contact materials is of great significance. Copper has good heat conduction and electric conduction performance and low price, and is a candidate material for replacing silver-based electrical contacts. There have been attempts to replace silver with inexpensive copper metal, but copper is easily oxidized to form copper oxide and cuprous oxide with low conductivity due to poor chemical stability, and the electrical contact resistance is increased, the conductivity is deteriorated, the temperature rise is very high, and fusion welding occurs. It is easy to cause major accidents. In addition, the traditional copper and the alloy thereof have poor mechanical properties, poor fusion welding resistance and breaking resistance, and greatly reduce the service life and reliability of equipment, so that the attempt is not widely popularized and applied. Therefore, the research and development of silver-free/silver-less silver-saving electrical contact materials becomes a modern task.
Graphene is the only existing environment-friendly novel carbon material with a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice structure formed by densely stacking carbon atoms, the thickness of the novel carbon material is usually within 10nm, the novel carbon material has an ultra-large specific surface area, the novel carbon material is the material with the highest strength known at present and reaches 130GPa, the current-carrying mobility reaches 150000cm2/VS, and the thermal conductivity reaches 5150w (m.K). Therefore, the unique nanostructure and electrical properties of the silver alloy have higher electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and mechanical properties than silver due to chemical properties, thermal properties, mechanical properties and the like. Particularly, in China, the graphene is already industrialized and the application is gradually expanded, so that the cost of the graphene is gradually reduced and reaches about one third of the silver value at present, and the trend is that the silver value is higher and the graphene value is lower and lower. The characteristics of the graphene which are unique and superior to the silver become ideal materials for replacing the silver.
In recent years, graphene has been disclosed as a small amount (less than 10.1% Wt) of additive (reinforcing agent and modifier) for silver-based and copper-based electrical contact materials, and for example, chinese patents CN102385938A, CN105719854A, CN105525132A, CN105385883A, CN105551839A, CN105483422A, CN105603247A and CN105483641A have all involved the problems.
The invention aims to provide a silver-free/silver-less silver-saving graphene-based electrical contact material which is free of silver and has the advantages of good electrical conductivity, low contact resistance, good chemical stability, good fusion welding resistance, high hardness and easiness in preparation, and is prepared by metal-coated graphene and an additive.
