Description

Preparation method of double-rare earth enhanced silica block aerogel capable of being stably synthesized
Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of aerogel preparation, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a double-rare earth reinforced silica block aerogel capable of being stably synthesized.
Background
With the continuous upgrading and development of advanced aircrafts and heat protection systems in China, more serious challenges are presented to the existing heat protection and insulation materials. The heat insulation materials commonly used in the aerospace field are mainly phenolic foam composite materials, ceramic foam composite materials and novel aerogel materials.
Aerogel is a material with nano-scale porous structure formed by mutually aggregating nano-particles, the high porosity of the material reduces the heat conduction of solid phase material, the nano-porous structure inhibits the convection heat transfer of gas in the material, and the multiple pore walls reduce the irradiation heat transfer. At present, middle and high temperature aerogel materials, such as alumina aerogel and zirconia aerogel, still stay in a laboratory stage, the high temperature stability of the materials is extremely poor, the application effect is not ideal, and the silica aerogel is most widely used at present.
The traditional silica aerogel material has the excellent characteristics of high specific surface area and low density, but the pure silica aerogel has extremely poor strength and is easy to crack, and the structure collapse is easy to sinter at high temperature, so that the long-term stable use range is only limited to below 650 ℃, and the maximum use temperature is not more than 900 ℃, thereby greatly restricting the application range of the silica aerogel material.
Although the temperature resistance of the silica aerogel prepared by the method of compounding doped other elements is improved to a certain extent, the use temperature of the silica aerogel is still lower than 1100 ℃, and the silica aerogel cannot be used in a high-temperature environment. The existing rare earth silicate ceramic material has the temperature resistance reaching more than 1600 ℃, but the ceramic material has the disadvantages of higher density, lower porosity, larger pore diameter and relatively higher heat conductivity, and the heat insulation performance can be reduced along with the temperature rise, thus being not suitable for high-temperature heat insulation. Research shows that the rare earth elements can inhibit high-temperature sintering of silicon dioxide to different degrees, improve high-temperature resistance of the silicon dioxide, and further maintain the spatial network structure of the aerogel under the condition of maintaining the low density of the silicon dioxide, so that the rare earth doped silicon dioxide aerogel has a very wide application prospect in the aspect of heat preservation and heat insulation.
