Description

Porous ceramic and preparation method thereof

Technical Field

The invention belongs to the technical field of functional ceramic materials, and relates to porous ceramic and a preparation method thereof.

Background

The porous ceramic has the characteristics of high hardness, high strength, good air permeability, high grinding precision, acid and alkali corrosion resistance and the like, so that the porous ceramic is widely applied to the semiconductor industry. Such as QFN (quad flat non-leaded package), PCB (printed circuit board) and other package substrates, and 6-12 inch silicon chips. With the gradual development of wafers in the semiconductor industry to a larger size direction, the manufacturing cost of large-scale packaging test factories is higher and higher, and higher requirements are correspondingly put forward on high strength, high hardness, ventilation uniformity, high precision stability, blockage prevention and the like of porous ceramic plates with large sizes and thin walls.

At present, the preparation process of the sheet and plate porous ceramics adopts a mould pressing forming method, and has the advantages of simple mould, high dimensional precision, convenient operation, high production efficiency and the like. The molding method is to fill molding materials containing about 3 percent of water into a mold, form a blank with certain shape and strength under the action of pressure, and then prepare the porous ceramic through the procedures of drying and high-temperature sintering. The key of the method is that the wet blank is required to reach the specified size, the ceramic density is ensured to be uniform, and the defects of sticking, cracking and the like are avoided. However, the press molding method has great limitation in the formation of large-size and thin-walled ceramics, which is mainly due to the fact that the pressed wet blank is very easy to have the defects of sticking, microcrack and the like in the demolding process, and finally the ceramic fracture rate is extremely high. At present, the traditional method adopts a die smooth surface method, a release agent method and other methods to solve the problems of die sticking and microcrack, and although the traditional method has certain effect, the application of the traditional method is limited due to the defects that the number of times of grinding the die is high, the release agent is easy to pollute a blank body and the like.

Therefore, aiming at the problems of die sticking, cracks and the like which are easy to occur in the compression molding of large-size and thin-wall porous ceramic plates, the research of technical personnel in the field is always important on how to provide a preparation method which has simple process steps, low raw material cost, no die sticking, microcrack and other defects of a pressed green body and good sintering quality stability.

The preparation method of the porous ceramic of the comparative example comprises the following steps:

a mold was designed and fabricated, and the size of the molding mold in this example was 360 × 4.5 (unit mm).

Putting the granulated powder on a film which is assembled in advance with a forming die, spreading uniformly, jolting and leveling, laying a layer of film on the upper surface of the leveling material, assembling the die, then putting the die in an oil press for prepressing with the prepressing pressure of 10MPa and the pressure maintaining time of 8s, after the prepressing is finished, pressing again with the pressing pressure of 20MPa and the pressure maintaining time of 120s, releasing the pressure and demoulding to obtain a formed ceramic wet blank, wherein the die sticking rate is about 60%.
