Description

Method for reducing particle size of tin microspheres prepared based on molten salt metal emulsion method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of metal emulsion preparation, in particular to a method for reducing the particle size of tin microspheres prepared based on a molten salt metal emulsion method.
Background
A metal emulsion is a special dispersion system with liquid metal as the dispersed phase. A typical example is increasing the interfacial area between metal and slag by emulsifying droplets of metal into slag during refining of molten steel, so-called "metal emulsions", which play an important role in controlling the reaction rate between molten steel and slag. Researchers have studied bubbling assisted emulsification of liquid metal with molten chloride salt as the slag phase, and have shown that small-sized emulsified metal droplets can be extracted by rapidly cooling the chloride salt and then dissolving the salt in water.
In common emulsions, such as oil-in-water emulsions, the emulsion is stable in a dispersed state for a long time after emulsification under ultrasonic irradiation due to a relatively small density difference. Compared with the traditional oil-water emulsion, the metal emulsion is unstable because of the factors of high interfacial tension between liquid metal and molten salt, influence of ionic property of the molten salt, incapability of adding surfactant at high temperature and the like.
It has been reported that Sn microspheres (Friedman, H.; Reich, S.; Popovitz–Biro, R.; Huth, V .P .; Halevy , I.; Koltypin, Y .; Gedanken, A.; Porat, Z. Micro–and nano–spheres of low melting point metals and alloys formed by ultrasonic cavitation. Ultrason. Sonochem. 2013, 20, 432–444.), having good shape can be prepared by ultrasonic dispersion of liquid Sn into silicone oil, but the use of silicone oil as a dispersion medium is not perfectly compatible with the metal emulsion method, silicone oil is easily evaporated or even decomposed at high temperature, and is harmful. And because of its extremely high viscosity, it is also necessary to remove it from the surface of the metal particles by means of organic substances.
It is found that the micro-sized metal droplets can be extracted by using chloride salt as a dispersion medium, dispersing the metal droplets in molten salt by ultrasonic cavitation, and then rapidly cooling the molten salt and washing the salt. The particle size ,(Zheng, X.; Luo, W.; Yu, Y.; Xue, Z.; Zheng, Y.; Liu, Z., Metal Emulsion-Based Synthesis, Characterization, and Properties of Sn-Based Microsphere Phase Change Materials. Molecules 2021, 26 (24).) of the metal microspheres can be reduced by increasing the ultrasonic power and the ultrasonic time and increasing the volume ratio of the salt to the metal in a certain range, and the method consumes energy although the particle size of the metal microspheres can be reduced to a certain extent by increasing the ultrasonic time. Therefore, the method for controlling the particle size of the metal microspheres by searching for a method which is simple to operate, energy-saving and environment-friendly has important significance.
