Description

Cubic boron nitride alkali treatment and purification process
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of superhard material purification, and particularly relates to a cubic boron nitride alkali treatment and purification process.
Background
Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) is an artificially synthesized superhard material, has high hardness and good wear resistance, and has wide application in the machining industry. Cubic boron nitride is synthesized from hexagonal boron nitride and a catalyst at high temperature and high pressure, and can replace artificial diamond in certain fields. The most important characteristic of cubic boron nitride is that after mixing with alkali, when a certain temperature is reached, the cubic boron nitride is reversely converted, namely, part of the cubic boron nitride is converted into hexagonal boron nitride, so that the prepared cubic boron nitride product needs to be purified.
The alkali treatment is a core step in the purification process of the cubic boron nitride product, and mainly comprises the steps of uniformly stirring the cubic boron nitride material (product containing hexagonal boron nitride impurities), industrial alkali (NaOH and the like) and water according to a certain proportion to form a mixture, putting the mixture into an alkali pot (each alkali pot has the capacity of about 24kg and the size of phi 300 x 300), heating the mixture on an electric furnace, reacting the heated alkali liquor with hexagonal boron nitride by utilizing high-temperature alkali liquor to remove the hexagonal boron nitride impurities, and thus realizing the purification of the opposite cubic boron nitride product.
The alkali treatment process of the cubic boron nitride product has 7 key points, specifically: 1. the proportion of alkali to materials; 2. how to lower the melting point; 3. the amount of water used; 4. after the hexagonal boron nitride and the alkali are completely reacted, the temperature point at which the cubic boron nitride starts to reversely transform; 5. the state of the alkali mixture at the beginning of the alkali formation after cooling; 6. alkali dissolving process; 7. and (5) cleaning materials. These key points are all the process steps which can influence the purification effect of the cubic boron nitride product, so accurate regulation and control are required.
However, the existing alkali treatment process of the cubic boron nitride product is basically manually operated, and key control points are all empirically and lack reliability. In order to reduce the risk of the alkali treatment process, improve the efficiency and realize the operation automation, it is necessary to provide a new process for treating and purifying the cubic boron nitride alkali so as to overcome the defects in the prior operation.
