Description

Magnetic refrigeration material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of low-temperature magnetic refrigeration materials, and particularly relates to a magnetic refrigeration material and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
In recent years, with the rapid development of human economy, environmental damage has been increasing. In this context, various green and environmentally friendly cleaning techniques are becoming popular. Among them, magnetic refrigeration technology based on the principle of magnetocaloric effect is included. Compared with the traditional vapor compression refrigeration, the magnetic refrigeration technology has the following remarkable advantages: (1) green environmental protection: the magnetic refrigeration adopts a solid or liquid refrigerant, so that the problems of ozone layer damage, greenhouse effect and the like are solved; (2) energy conservation and high efficiency: the thermodynamic process of magnetic refrigeration for generating a magnetocaloric effect is highly reversible, and the Carnot cycle efficiency can reach 60-70%; (3) stable and reliable: the magnetic refrigeration technology is realized without a gas compressor, vibration and noise are not generated, the service life of the equipment is long, and the reliability is high.
The magnetocaloric effect is a phenomenon in which when an external magnetic field is changed, the degree of magnetic moment order inside a magnetic material is changed, that is, the magnetic entropy is changed, and the material spontaneously absorbs and releases heat to the outside. In the excitation process, the magnetic moment order degree of the magnetic material is increased, the magnetic entropy is reduced, and the magnetic working medium releases heat outwards; in the demagnetizing process, the magnetic moment order degree of the magnetic material is reduced, the magnetic entropy is increased, and at the moment, the magnetic working medium absorbs heat from the outside. One of the key technologies in the implementation of the magnetic refrigeration technology is to use a large amount of permanent magnet materials or a superconducting magnet with high price and a complex structure to achieve the required magnetic field change. In addition, the required change in the magnetic fieldThe larger the size, the more demanding the weight and structure of the magnet assembly, which further increases the design difficulty and increases the operating costs. Taking a commonly used commercial cylindrical Halbach magnet as an example, when the magnetic field is changed to 0-1.5T, the volume of the magnet group is about 1.41dm 3 The weight is about 10 kg; when the magnetic field is changed to 0-1.0T, the volume of the magnet group is reduced by more than 60 percent to 0.54dm 3 Reducing weight by more than 60% to about 4.0 kg; when the magnetic field change is further reduced to 0-0.7T, the volume of the required magnet group is reduced by more than 80 percent to 0.28dm 3 The weight loss was reduced to 80%, which was reduced to about 2.1kg.
A plurality of magnetic refrigeration materials are disclosed in the prior art, for example CN111403137A discloses a rare earth-based oxide magnetic refrigeration material and a preparation method thereof, and the chemical formula of the material is RE 2 ZnMnO 6 (RE = any one or more of Gd, tb, dy, ho, er and Tm) is prepared by a sol-gel method, the phase transition temperature is 2.2-6.8K, and the isothermal magnetic entropy change is 11.53-25.26 J.kg under the change of a 0-7T magnetic field -1 ·K -1 In the meantime. CN106978576B discloses an Er-based amorphous low-temperature magnetic refrigeration material and a preparation method thereof, the material is prepared by a strip casting method, and the chemical formula of the material is as follows: er a T b Al c Wherein a is 56 to 63, b is 18 to 33, c is 16 to 28, and a + b + c =100, the magnetic transition temperature is 8 to 18K and the maximum magnetic entropy change is 12.6 to 22.5 J.kg under the change of a magnetic field of 0 to 7T -1 ·K -1 . CN105836755A discloses a gadolinium borate material and a preparation method and application thereof, and relates to gadolinium borate, wherein the magnetic entropy change of the gadolinium borate material reaches the maximum value of 47.28 J.kg at the position of T =3K under the change of a 0-7T magnetic field -1 ·K -1 (ii) a Under the change of the magnetic field of 0-3T, the magnetic entropy is changed into 18.81 J.kg -1 ·K -1 . Materials Research Bulletin 98 (2018) 173-179 reports GdBO of monoclinic structure 3 At T =2K, the magnetic entropy changes to about 7J · kg under a magnetic field change of 0-2T -1 ·K -1 (ii) a Under the magnetic field change of 0-5T, the magnetic entropy change is about 35 J.kg -1 ·K -1
The rare earth borate has the advantages of simple preparation process, low raw material cost and suitability for mass production and application, but the magnetic entropy change (particularly under low magnetic field, less than or equal to 1T) of the existing material is relatively small. Therefore, development of a magnetocaloric material having inexpensive raw materials and excellent magnetocaloric properties at a low driving field is not only based on ecological protection considerations but also has a very high economic benefit. And has great scientific value and strategic significance for the magnetic refrigeration technology which is applied to the terminal as early as possible, supporting low-temperature scientific research, aerospace and the like.

As can be seen from FIG. 3, the X-ray diffraction patterns of the intermediate products in comparative examples 1-2 have many obvious impurity peaks at multiple angles, which indicates that the material contains more impurity phases; the results show that H 3 BO 3 Too low a content results in the intermediate EuBO 3 The normal generation cannot be realized; as can be seen from FIG. 4, the comparison of the X-ray diffraction patterns and the theoretical patterns of the magnetic refrigeration materials in the comparative examples 3 to 4 shows that the magnetic refrigeration materials obtained in the comparative examples 3 to 4 have very obvious hetero peaks at multiple angles, which indicates that the Eu with a pure phase structure can not be prepared by the heat treatment process of reducing at 1300 ℃ for 6h and at 1200 ℃ for 40h 3 B 2 O 6 . As can be seen from the above, the Eu is suitably selected in the present invention 2 O 3 And H 3 BO 3 The ratio of the amounts of substances, H 3 BO 3 Too low a content results in failure of the solid phase reaction to proceed normally, resulting in the intermediate EuBO 3 Cannot be generated. In addition, the selection of the parameters of the heat treatment process is very important, and the sintering and reduction temperature is too low or too high during sintering and reductionToo short or too long intervals can affect the phase composition of the material, so that the pure-phase magnetic refrigeration material cannot be generated.
FIG. 5 is the thermomagnetic curve of the Zero Field Cooling (ZFC) and the band Field Cooling (FC) of the magnetic refrigeration material under the magnetic field of 0.01T in the embodiment 3 of the invention; as can be seen in fig. 5, when the temperature is below 8K, significant splitting of the curve is observed, which may be related to the domain wall pinning effect; while temperatures near and above the phase transition temperature, the ZFC and FC curves almost completely overlap. Fig. 6 is the first derivative of the Zero Field Cooling (ZFC) thermomagnetic curve of the magnetic refrigeration material in embodiment 3 of the present invention; it can be seen that the phase transition temperature of the magnetic refrigeration material in example 3 is 8K, and the magnetic refrigeration material belongs to a low-temperature magnetic refrigeration material. FIG. 7 is the isothermal magnetization curve of the magnetic refrigeration material of example 3 of the present invention at 2-30K under the change of 0-5T magnetic field; it can be seen that at lower temperatures, the magnetization gradually increases with increasing magnetic field, and saturates at lower magnetic field changes, showing typical ferromagnetic behavior. At a higher temperature (>14K) It appears paramagnetic and with increasing temperature the magnetization gradually decreases, which is associated with a decrease in order due to an increase in the thermal movement of the molecules. According to isothermal magnetization curves at different temperatures, the magnitude of magnetic entropy change under different magnetic field changes can be calculated by utilizing Maxwell relation. FIG. 8 shows the relationship between the change in magnetic entropy and the temperature under the change in magnetic field of 0 to 1T, 0 to 2T, 0 to 3T, 0 to 4T and 0 to 5T in the magnetic refrigeration material in example 3 of the present invention; as can be seen from the graph, the maximum magnetic entropy change of the magnetic refrigeration material in the embodiment 3 is proportional to the magnitude of the change of the external magnetic field, and the maximum magnetic entropy change values are respectively 13.0 J.kg at the phase transition temperature of about 8K and when the magnetic field changes to 0-1T, 0-2T and 0-5T -1 ·K -1 、22.0J·kg -1 ·K -1 And 38.6 J.kg -1 ·K -1
The magnetic entropy change of the resulting magnetic refrigeration materials of examples 1-2 was also calculated to be 37.6 J.kg at a maximum magnetic entropy change of the magnetic refrigeration materials of examples 1 and 2 under a magnetic field change of 0-5T at a temperature around the phase transition temperature of 8K, respectively -1 ·K -1 And 36.6 J.kg -1 ·K -1 And also shows strong magnetocaloric effect.
Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are intended to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit the scope of the present invention, and although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that modifications and equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
