Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of powder metallurgy, and particularly relates to a preparation method of spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder.
Background
The synchronous development of sputtering targets and sputtering technology has greatly satisfied the development demands of various novel electronic components since the 90 th century. For example, in the semiconductor integrated circuit manufacturing process, aluminum film wiring is replaced with a copper conductor thin film having a low resistivity: in the flat panel display industry, various display technologies (such as LCD, PDP, OLED and FED) have been developed simultaneously, and some have been used for the manufacture of computers and displays of computers; in the information storage industry, the storage capacity of magnetic memories is continuously increased, new magneto-optical recording materials are continuously pushed out, and these materials all put higher and higher demands on the quality of required sputtering targets, and the number of demands is also increased year by year.
The silicon tungsten target is widely applied to the fields of electronic grid materials, electronic films and the like because the sputtered film is a good conductor. The silicon tungsten composite powder is used as a main raw material of the silicon tungsten target, and the diversity of the performance of the silicon tungsten composite powder directly influences the performance of the subsequent target, so that the silicon tungsten composite powder with different performances is researched and developed, and the application market of the silicon tungsten composite powder and the silicon tungsten target can be widened. The performance of the silicon-tungsten composite powder influences the performance of the silicon-tungsten product to a great extent. The quality of the silicon-tungsten composite powder is guaranteed to ensure the excellent performance of the silicon-tungsten alloy, the silicon-tungsten composite powder industry faces great challenges, the increasingly high requirements of the market on the silicon-tungsten composite powder must be met, the production of the silicon-tungsten composite powder has not only the requirements on chemical purity, but also the requirements on physical performance and technological performance, and particularly the preparation technology of superfine tungsten silicon powder for meeting some special purposes is still to be solved. The silicon-tungsten composite powder is prepared by adopting silicon oxide and tungsten trioxide as raw materials through hydrogen reduction reaction, and the silicon-tungsten composite powder is one of the processes; the traditional hydrogen reduction process flow is to bake the raw materials to obtain tungsten trioxide and silicon oxide, and then reduce the tungsten silicon powder in two stages to obtain tungsten silicon powder, and the following problems exist in the preparation of the tungsten silicon powder by using the traditional process: 1. the reduction temperature is low, the reaction time is long, and the time is wasted; 2. the tubular reduction furnace is adopted, so that the equipment is complex and energy is not saved; 3. the product purity is low, and the continuous production is difficult.
At present, the preparation of the tungsten silicon composite powder generally has a mechanical mixing mode, and generally has a wet mixing and dry mixing mode, but for silicon powder and tungsten powder with smaller granularity, if dry mixing is adopted, on the one hand, the silicon powder and the tungsten powder are not easy to mix uniformly, on the other hand, dust is easy to fly, and researchers adopt a series of modes to solve the problems, for example, chinese patent with the authority of publication number CN 103695852B and entitled "manufacturing method of tungsten silicon target" discloses: the tungsten powder and the silicon powder are mixed in a wet mixing mode, tungsten balls are used as grinding medium balls, the proper mass ratio of the balls is (2:1) - (5:1), the added liquid is a mixed solution of ethanol and glycerol with the mass ratio of 1:1, in the method disclosed by the patent, although dust flying can be avoided, the liquid used for wet mixing is based on the ethanol, glycerol is used, the viscosity of the glycerol is high, the tungsten powder and the silicon powder are bonded together in the mixing and stirring process, and the composite powder is easy to agglomerate, so that the composite powder is uneven, the surface morphology of the prepared composite powder is irregular, and the performance is poor; as another example, application number 202111133848.8, a technical scheme disclosed in the chinese patent application entitled "a method for preparing a tungsten-silicon target blank" is to perform high-energy ball milling on mixed powder of tungsten powder and silicon powder to obtain primary alloy powder, so that the obtained powder has the defects of powder agglomeration, uneven morphology and the like, and meanwhile, the ball milling time is 50-60h, the time is too long, and the cost is high.
The tungsten silicon composite powder prepared by the prior method is not uniform spherical, so the problem of poor fluidity is common. And for the technicians in the industry, the spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder has the advantage of good fluidity, and can meet the higher requirements and special requirements of the industry on the fluidity of the silicon-tungsten composite powder.

It should be understood that the description is only illustrative and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. In addition, in the following description, descriptions of well-known structures and techniques are omitted so as not to unnecessarily obscure the present invention.
In order to solve the problems that the silicon-tungsten composite powder prepared by the existing method is not uniform spherical and has poor fluidity, the invention provides the preparation method of the spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder, and the spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder with uniformly distributed silicon and tungsten, high balling rate and good fluidity can be prepared by adopting the method of the invention, so that the requirements of silicon-tungsten target material market on higher quality and higher yield of the spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder are better met.
In one aspect of the invention, the invention provides a method for preparing spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder, which comprises the following steps: the spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder is obtained by taking tungsten powder and silicon powder as raw materials and performing wet grinding, spray drying, plasma spheroidization and sieving.
In another aspect of the invention, the invention provides a preparation method of spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder, which comprises the following specific steps:
(1) In a ball mill, wet-milling tungsten powder and silicon powder in a wet-milling medium and a protective atmosphere until the tungsten powder and the silicon powder are uniformly mixed;
(2) Spray drying the wet-ground mixture in the step (1) to prepare a spheroid-like mixture;
(3) And (3) performing plasma spheroidization on the spheroidized mixture obtained in the step (2) to obtain spheroidized silicon-tungsten composite powder.
Further, in an embodiment of the present invention, the wet milling medium in step (1) is selected to be alcohol. Oxidation of the mixture during wet milling is a detrimental effect, and the wet milling medium is selected as alcohol in order to minimize the effect of oxidation. Further, in order to minimize the influence of oxidation, the present invention preferably uses absolute alcohol as a wet milling medium, and more preferably, the present invention selects the absolute alcohol to have a purity of 99% or more. However, the alcohol of the present invention is not particularly limited, and any commercially available alcohol materials known to those skilled in the art may be used.
Further, in an embodiment of the present invention, the protective atmosphere is argon in step (1). The oxidation of air in the wet milling process of the mixture is a detrimental effect, and in order to minimize the effect of the oxidation, the protective atmosphere is preferably argon. Further preferably, the protective atmosphere is high-purity argon, and further preferably, the purity of the high-purity argon is 99.999%; however, the argon gas is not particularly limited, and commercially available argon gas, which is well known to those skilled in the art, may be used.
Further, in the embodiment of the invention, the tungsten powder and the silicon powder can be effectively mixed by wet grinding under the atmosphere of alcohol and argon; alcohol is used as a grinding medium and argon atmosphere is used as a shielding gas, so that the material oxygenation in the wet grinding process can be avoided, and the quality of subsequent products is influenced.
Further, in the embodiment of the invention, the mass content of the tungsten powder in the powder after being uniformly mixed in the step (1) is 60% -80%. The inventor researches find that the spherical tungsten silicon composite powder is easier to prepare in the reasonable tungsten powder mass content range. The tungsten powder is difficult to mix uniformly when the mass content is too low, and the silicon and tungsten in the composite powder are unevenly distributed; the tungsten powder has the advantages of excessively high mass content, reduced balling rate and poor powder flowability. Therefore, the mass content of the tungsten powder in the range can ensure the best silicon and tungsten uniform distribution and good fluidity effect of the prepared spherical tungsten silicon composite powder.
Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, in the wet milling process in the step (1), the ball-to-material ratio is controlled to be 1:1-3:1; ball-to-material ratio refers to the ratio of the weight of the ground balls to the weight of the material in the ball mill. The larger the ball-to-material ratio is, the larger the contact area between the ball and the material is, and the higher the grinding efficiency is. In a certain range, the ball-material ratio is improved, so that the grinding efficiency can be improved, the performance of the mixture is changed, and good product organization structure and performance can be obtained, but the ball-material ratio cannot be excessively large. The ball-to-material ratio is too large, so that the idle work of friction and impact between the grinding balls and between the grinding balls and the inner wall of the ball mill cylinder is increased, the efficiency is reduced, and the energy consumption and the abrasion of the grinding balls and the ball mill cylinder are increased. If the ball-to-material ratio is too small, the buffer effect of the increase of the material on the impact of the grinding ball is enhanced, meanwhile, the grinding ball is reduced, the impact and friction times of the grinding ball are correspondingly reduced, and the efficiency and the crushing effect are also not ideal. Therefore, the spherical material ratio in the range of the invention can ensure the best silicon and tungsten uniform distribution and better fluidity effect of the prepared spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder.
Further, in the embodiment of the invention, the solid-to-liquid ratio of the materials in the ball mill in the wet milling process in the step (1) is 3:1-4:1. The solid-to-liquid ratio refers to the ratio of the weight of the added mixture to the volume of the liquid medium. In general, the slurry has an optimum polishing efficiency when the solid-to-liquid ratio is proper. Therefore, the solid-liquid ratio in the range can ensure the best silicon and tungsten uniform distribution and good fluidity effect of the prepared spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder.
Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, the ball milling time is controlled to be 6 to 10 hours during the wet milling in the step (1). The ball milling time cannot be too short, otherwise, silicon and tungsten cannot be well distributed uniformly; however, the milling time is not too long, and the specific surface area and oxygen content of the mixture are increased synchronously with the extension of the wet milling time, and the milling time is preferably selected to be 6-10 h in order to minimize the influence of oxidation.
Further, in an embodiment of the present invention, the spray drying in step (2) is performed at 80 to 90 ℃. Spray drying is a process in which a high-speed rotating atomizer is used to disperse a feed liquid into fine droplets and rapidly evaporate the solvent in a hot drying medium to form a dry powder product. A complete spray drying apparatus system should include: the system comprises an air supply system, an exhaust system, a drying system, a separation system and a cleaning system. The method can directly dry the solution and emulsion into powder or granular products, and can omit the procedures of evaporation, crushing and the like. The drying temperature is an important factor affecting the physicochemical properties of the spray-dried powder. Higher drying temperatures provide more heat to the drying chamber, which increases the drying rate and reduces the moisture of the spray-dried product. However, the drying temperature is not too high, which results in an increased evaporation of water, which results in a faster formation of microspheres without sufficient time for shrinkage, resulting in larger particle sizes and thus affecting the quality of the final product.
Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, during the spray drying in the step (2), an argon atmosphere is used, the spraying rotation speed is controlled to be 20-40 Hz, and the feeding speed is controlled to be 80-120 Hz. In spray drying, the feed rate is one of the important influencing factors. The feed rate determines the residence time of the material in the drying chamber, separator and conveyor, and also affects the atomization of the material and the size of the droplets. The feed rate is essentially dependent on the speed of the atomizer, the higher the pump speed, the faster the feed rate. However, higher feed rates slow heat transfer, making it difficult to dry the droplets sufficiently and easily causing wall sticking.
Furthermore, in the embodiment of the invention, the wet-ground mixture can be prepared into a spheroid by spray drying, so that the fluidity of the mixture is improved, and the subsequent plasma spheroidization powder feeding is facilitated; meanwhile, the alcohol can be removed, and adverse effects caused by the alcohol in the plasma spheroidizing process are avoided, so that the silicon-tungsten composite powder with good sphericity is prepared. Therefore, the spray drying conditions in the range can ensure the best silicon and tungsten uniform distribution and good fluidity of the prepared spherical tungsten silicon composite powder.
Further, in the embodiment of the invention, the powder feeding carrier gas flow rate is set to be 5-15L/min, the plasma gas flow rate is 2-8L/min, and the protection gas flow rate is 10-30L/min during the plasma spheroidization in the step (3). The inventor researches and discovers that the spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder is easier to prepare and obtain within the reasonable condition range.
Further, in an embodiment of the present invention, the principle of the plasma spheroidization technique is: the high temperature environment of thermal plasma is utilized, the carrier gas is used for feeding the powder into the high temperature plasma, the powder particles are rapidly absorbed in heat and then are melted on the surface (or the whole), and the powder particles are condensed into spherical liquid drops under the action of surface tension, and the spherical liquid drops enter a cooling chamber and are quenched and solidified to fix the spherical liquid drops, so that the spherical powder is obtained. According to the excitation mode of plasma, the plasma spheroidization method can be divided into two main types, namely direct current plasma and radio frequency plasma. The direct current plasma spheroidizing technology has the advantages of high energy conversion rate, high product yield, low investment, easy realization of large-scale industrial production and the like; the RF plasma spheroidizing technology is to induce the Joule heating effect of current to heat airflow to very high temperature under the action of strong electromagnetic coupling to form self-sustaining plasma. The heating temperature range can reach 10000-30000K, the quenching speed can reach 105K/S, and the method is a good way for preparing spherical powder with uniform components, high sphericity and good fluidity. Further, in the embodiments of the present invention, the present invention preferably employs direct current plasma spheroidization.
Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, the flow rate of the powder feeding carrier gas is one of important process parameters affecting the spheroidization effect, and generally, the spheroidization rate increases as the powder feeding rate decreases. This is because the smaller the powder feeding rate, the fewer powder particles passing through the high temperature region of the plasma torch per unit time, the more heat is absorbed by the individual particles, the more the powder particles are melted, and the spheroidization rate is improved. However, if the powder feeding rate is too low, the powder absorbs too much heat, so that the powder volatilizes and is aggravated, the powder yield is reduced, and the production efficiency is affected. And the carrier gas flow rate affects the spheroidization effect mainly by affecting the residence time of the powder particles in the plasma torch. In addition, when the carrier gas flow rate is increased, the temperature of the plasma torch is reduced, the high-temperature region is contracted, the heat absorption of powder particles in the spheroidization process is reduced, and the spheroidization rate is reduced. When the carrier gas flow is too small, the powder dispersibility is poor, the heat transfer is affected, meanwhile, bonding particles can appear, and the spheroidization rate is affected. The most commonly used gas for metal powder spheroidization is argon, and then hydrogen, and a certain amount of hydrogen is added into a plasma atmosphere to generally improve the spheroidization effect.
Further, in the embodiment of the invention, in order to ensure the best effect of uniformly distributing silicon and tungsten and having better fluidity of the prepared spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder, the powder feeding carrier gas flow rate is preferably set to be 5-15L/min, the plasma gas flow rate is 2-8L/min, the protection gas flow rate is 10-30L/min, and the powder feeding rotating speed is controlled to be 2-10 r/min during the plasma spheroidization in the step (3). If the powder feeding carrier gas amount is too large, the powder feeding amount is large, so that more powder cannot be effectively spheroidized, the spheroidization efficiency is reduced, and the fluidity is reduced; the powder feeding carrier gas amount is too small, so that the powder feeding amount is small, the balling rate is high, the fluidity is good, but the yield is low, and the production cost is high. If the flow rate of the plasma gas is too large, the energy consumption is increased, and more plasma gas acts idle work; if the plasma air flow is too small, the powder cannot be effectively spheroidized, the spheroidization efficiency is low, and the fluidity is poor. The waste of the protective gas is larger when the protective gas flow is too large, so that the performance of the product is not influenced; when the protective gas flow is too small, the protective gas is easy to oxidize, and the oxygen content of the spherical powder is increased. When the powder feeding rotating speed is too high, the feeding quantity is large, the spheroidization is easy to incomplete, and the fluidity is poor; the powder feeding rotating speed is too small, so that the yield is low and the production cost is high.
Further, in the embodiment of the invention, the preparation method further comprises sieving the silicon-tungsten composite powder obtained through the spheroidization in the step (3) to remove coarse particles, thereby obtaining the spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder.
Further, in the embodiment of the invention, the invention provides spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder, which is prepared by adopting the method. Furthermore, the silicon-tungsten composite powder prepared by the method has high balling rate, good fluidity and best flow rate of 7.5s.
Furthermore, in the embodiment of the invention, the invention also provides application of the spherical silicon-tungsten composite powder in preparing silicon-tungsten targets. The silicon tungsten composite powder can be used as a main raw material of a silicon tungsten target, and the silicon tungsten target is a good conductor because of a sputtering film of the silicon tungsten composite powder, and is widely applied to the fields of electronic grid materials, electronic films and the like.
Further, in the examples of the present invention, the powder flow rate of the present invention was measured according to the "standard hopper method (hall flowmeter) for measuring metal powder flowability" of GB/T1482-2010/ISO 4490:2001. The standard specifies a method for measuring the flowability of metal powders, including cemented carbide powders, using a standard funnel (hall flowmeter). The standard applies to powders that can freely flow through a defined pore size. This test measures the time required for 50g of metal powder to flow through a standard sized hopper hole. The standard funnel of this test is made of a non-magnetic corrosion resistant metallic material and has sufficient wall thickness and hardness to prevent deformation and excessive wear. The balance of this test has a sufficient range to weigh the sample to 0.05g. The measuring time of the stopwatch of the test should be accurate to 0.1s. In this test, the funnel outlet was closed with a finger, and the sample was placed in the funnel. Ensure that the powder fills the bottom of the funnel. When the funnel aperture is opened, the stopwatch is started and when the powder in the funnel is completely discharged, the stopwatch is terminated. The time was recorded to the nearest 0.1s. The arithmetic mean of the three test results was calculated and the time in seconds per 50g of sample was reported.
The invention will now be described with reference to specific examples, which are intended to be illustrative only and not limiting in any way. In addition, the percentages stated in the examples refer generally to percent by mass unless otherwise indicated.
