Technical Field

Background
With the rapid development of the electronic information industry, electronic products such as mobile phones and tablet computers are becoming necessities in daily life. The electronic product comprises display screen glass and/or backboard protective glass. However, conventional glass is a brittle material and its actual strength is far lower than the theoretical strength due to the presence of surface cracks. The electronic products adopting the traditional glass as the display screen and/or the backboard have poorer performances such as drop resistance, scratch resistance and the like. Therefore, it is important to improve the strength of glass.
Microcrystalline glass is a material in which a crystal phase is precipitated inside glass by crystallizing conventional glass. The crystal phase can deflect the propagation path of the crack, so that the tip of the crack is passivated, and the strength of the glass is improved. However, the presence of the crystalline phase also reduces the ion exchange performance of the glass-ceramic, so that the ion exchange process of the glass-ceramic requires a higher temperature and longer time than conventional glass, which not only reduces the production efficiency, but also significantly increases the production cost. And the mechanical strength of the traditional glass ceramics is still to be improved. In addition, as the microcrystalline glass is not easy to generate ion exchange, the mechanical strength of the glass product obtained after the chemical tempering treatment is difficult to meet the requirements of practical application.

"content" as described herein is mass percent unless otherwise defined.
The microcrystalline glass is a multiphase material which is formed by crystallizing the traditional glass to uniformly separate out tiny crystals in the glass and simultaneously contains a compact crystal phase and a glass mother phase. The crystal phase has better mechanical properties, so that the mechanical properties such as hardness, strength, toughness and the like of the microcrystalline glass are obviously improved, and further, the product containing the microcrystalline glass has better scratch resistance, drop resistance and the like. However, the presence of the crystalline phase also reduces the ion exchange properties of the glass-ceramics, and therefore the glass-ceramics have higher ion exchange temperatures and longer time. Thus, not only the production efficiency is reduced, but also the manufacturing cost is increased.
The ion exchange performance of glass ceramics is affected by the composition and content of the glass matrix phase, the composition, content and size of the crystal phase, and other factors. Through the composition design and microstructure regulation of the microcrystalline glass, the ion exchange performance and the mechanical strength of the microcrystalline glass are improved, and the microcrystalline glass has important significance for improving mechanical properties such as the strength of products.
The research of the application finds that the poor ion exchange capability of the traditional microcrystalline glass is mainly because the progress of ion exchange is influenced by crystal phases such as lithium disilicate, spinel and the like contained in the traditional microcrystalline glass. In addition, for the traditional microcrystalline glass with higher lithium oxide content, the production cost is high, the devitrification tendency of spodumene can be enhanced, the product is devitrified, and the transmittance of the glass is reduced. For traditional microcrystalline glass with higher zinc oxide content, the zinc oxide in the glass prevents ion exchange, and the mechanical strength of the product is reduced.
One embodiment of the present application provides a glass ceramic comprising a glass matrix phase and a crystalline phase, the crystalline phase being dispersed in the glass matrix phase in the form of particles, the crystalline phase comprising Zn 2 SiO 4 Crystalline phase and ZnAl 2 O 4 A crystalline phase;
wherein, the microcrystalline glass comprises the following components in percentage by mass:
SiO 2 48%~66%、
Al 2 O 3 18%~28%、
Li 2 O 0.1%~3%、
ZnO 4%~18%、
P 2 O 5 0~5%、
TiO 2 1.2%~7%、
Na 2 0-8% of O
K 2 O 0~8%;
And Na is Na 2 O and K 2 The sum of the mass percentages of O is not more than 8%.
Microcrystalline glass is based on aluminosilicate glass and generally comprises SiO 2 、Al 2 O 3 And alkali metal elements (e.g., na and K). SiO (SiO) 2 As a skeleton component of a network structure in a glass parent phase, al 2 O 3 As an intermediate of a network structure in the glass parent phase, the alkali metal element is used as a network modifier. Zn is introduced into the microcrystalline glass of the application 2 SiO 4 Crystalline phase and ZnAl 2 O 4 The crystalline phase serves as a crystalline phase and is distributed within the network structure of the glass parent phase.
The microcrystalline glass comprises SiO with specific mass percent 2 、Al 2 O 3 、Li 2 O、ZnO、P 2 O 5 、TiO 2 、Na 2 O and K 2 O,Na 2 O and K 2 The sum of the mass percentages of O is not more than 8%, and the glass parent phase comprises Zn 2 SiO 4 Crystalline phase and ZnAl 2 O 4 A crystalline phase. Wherein ZnAl 2 O 4 The crystalline phase itself has better mechanical properties, thus ZnAl 2 O 4 The introduction of the crystalline phase improves the mechanical strength of the glass ceramics. Further, compared with other crystal phases contained in the conventional glass ceramics, zn 2 SiO 4 Better ion exchange capacity of the crystalline phase, thus Zn 2 SiO 4 The introduction of the crystalline phase can improve the ion exchange performance of the whole microcrystalline glass. In the glass ceramic, znAl 2 O 4 Crystalline phase and ZnAl 2 O 4 The mechanical strength of the glass ceramics can be further improved by the cooperation of crystal phases.
Zn in the form of a powder 2 SiO 4 Crystalline phase and ZnAl 2 O 4 The crystalline phases may be dispersed in the glass matrix phase independently of each other in the form of particles, and small amounts of linkages may also be present between the particles.
Further, by properly adjusting the components of the glass ceramics, particularly Al 2 O 3 、ZnO、P 2 O 5 And TiO 2 The adjustment of the relative content and the crystallization treatment condition can effectively control Zn 2 SiO 4 Crystalline phase and ZnAl 2 O 4 Formation of a crystalline phase to give a Zn-containing composition 2 SiO 4 Crystalline phase and ZnAl 2 O 4 Microcrystalline glass in a crystalline phase.
Silicon dioxide (SiO) 2 ) Is a framework component of a glass matrix phase in the glass ceramics, and can enhance the mechanical properties of the glass ceramics. SiO (SiO) 2 Has low thermal expansion coefficient, siO in glass system 2 The higher the content, the smaller the thermal expansion coefficient of the microcrystalline glass, and the higher the mechanical strength. But SiO 2 Has a higher melting point, if SiO 2 Too high a content of (c) increases the difficulty in melting the raw materials, resulting in difficulty in molding the glass. Based on this, siO 2 The content of (C) is 48% -66%, when SiO 2 When the content of the glass is less than 48%, the network space of the glass matrix phase is loose, and the mechanical property of the glass ceramics is reduced. When SiO 2 When the content exceeds 66%, the melting difficulty of the raw material is high.
Alumina (Al) 2 O 3 ) Is a component necessary for increasing the ion exchange capacity of the glass ceramics, and can improve the chemical stability and the elastic modulus of the glass ceramics. At the same time Al 2 O 3 Participated in ZnAl 2 O 4 In the crystallization process of the crystal phase, znAl in microcrystalline glass 2 O 4 The content of the crystalline phase has a certain influence. In addition to Al 2 O 3 The amount of (2) also affects the volume of network space in the glass matrix. Based on this, al 2 O 3 The content of (2) is 18% -28%, and specifically may be 18%, 19%, 20%, 21%, 22%, 23%, 24%, 25%, 26%, 27% or 28%. When Al is 2 O 3 The content is less than 18%, the network space structure of the glass parent phase is loose, and the ion exchange efficiency is reduced. When Al is 2 O 3 The content of the glass is more than 28%, the high-temperature viscosity of the glass system is obviously increased, and the melting temperature is excessively high in the production process, so that the energy consumption is increased, and the control of the discharge of bubbles is not facilitated.
Lithium oxide (Li) 2 O) is an ideal flux and is also an essential component for ion exchange. Specifically, li + Can be combined with Na in molten salt + And/or K + Ion exchange is carried out, so that the product has more excellent mechanical impact resistance. In addition, due to Li + The polarization characteristic of the polymer can effectively reduce the high-temperature viscosity at high temperature. Based on this, li 2 The content of O is 0.1% -3%, and specifically can be 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5% or 3%. When Li 2 The content of O is higher than 3%, the spodumene in the system has too high crystallization tendency and is difficult to control, and the transparency of the product is further affected.
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is advantageous for reducing the high temperature viscosity of the glass system, modifying the structure of the glass matrix phase, and improving the strength and chemical stability of the product. At the same time, znO is Zn 2 SiO 4 Crystalline phase and ZnAl 2 O 4 The composition of the crystalline phase and the content of ZnO have a certain influence on the content of the crystalline phase in the microcrystalline glass. Based on the content, the ZnO content is 4% -18%, and specifically can be 4%, 8%, 15%, 16%, 17% or 18%. Since ZnO may hinder ion exchange, when the content of ZnO is more than 18%, the ion exchange performance of the glass-ceramic may be degraded.
When Al is 2 O 3 At a lower content of (2) introducing a certain amount of P 2 O 5 The glass enters a network structure of a glass parent phase, so that gaps of the network structure are increased, and the aim of enhancing the ion exchange capacity is fulfilled. In addition, P 2 O 5 The introduction of the glass ceramic can further improve the strain point of the glass ceramic, can alleviate the problem of stress relaxation in the ion exchange process, and can improve the surface compressive stress value after strengthening. P (P) 2 O 5 Is introduced into Zn 2 SiO 4 The formation of a crystalline phase is also promoted. Based on this, P 2 O 5 The content of (2) is 0-5%, specifically 0, 0.1%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5% or 5%. When P 2 O 5 When the content of (C) is higher than 5%The viscosity of the glass system is increased, resulting in opacification of the glass during the fusion process.
Titanium dioxide (TiO) 2 ) Is a nucleating agent in glass, and because the ZnO content in the application is small, tiO needs to be added 2 To ensure Zn 2 SiO 4 Formation of a crystalline phase. Based on this, tiO 2 The content of (2) is 1.2% -7%, and can be 1.2%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5% or 7%. When TiO 2 When the amount of the additive is too large, the product is easy to be black, and the transmittance of the product is affected.
Sodium oxide (Na) 2 O) and potassium oxide (K) 2 O) improves the melting properties of the glass system and is made by Na + And K + After the exchange, a compressive stress layer can be formed on the surface of the product, so that the chemical strength of the glass ceramics is enhanced. Further, na 2 O and K 2 The sum of the mass percentages of O is not more than 8%.
Alternatively, na 2 The mass percentage of O is 0-8%, specifically 0, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5% or 8%. When Na is + When the content is too high, the strength of the compressive stress layer formed after ion exchange is lowered. In addition, due to Na + Does not participate in crystallization and thus leads to Na remaining in the glass matrix phase + Higher than Na in the raw materials + Is contained in the composition. Alternatively, K 2 The mass percentage of O is 0-8%, specifically 0, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5% or 8%.
In a specific example, the crystallinity of the glass ceramic is 15% -50%. If the crystallinity is too small, the ZnO content in the glass body is higher, and if ZnO blocks ion exchange, the subsequent tempering leads to low ion exchange depth; the crystallinity is too large, the growth size of crystal grains is difficult to control, and microcrystalline glass with lower transparency is easy to form.
In a specific example, the average transmittance of the glass ceramics in the visible light band is more than or equal to 75 percent. It is understood that the above average transmittance is related to the particle size of the crystal phase in the glass-ceramic, and in particular, when the particle size of the crystal phase is too large, the average transmittance is lowered.
In one specific example, the grain size of the crystalline phase is 10 nm to 100 nm.
In a specific example, the microcrystalline glass further comprises 0-5% of B 2 O 3 ZrO 0-6% 2 And 0-8% MgO.
Boron oxide (B) 2 O 3 ) The flux can be used as a fluxing agent, and a space end network formed by the flux can slide in a certain range. When stress exists in the microcrystalline glass, larger deformation can be obtained for buffering, so that the generation of cracks is reduced, and the elastic modulus of the microcrystalline glass is reduced. But B is 2 O 3 When the content is too high, exceeding 5%, the ion exchange capacity of the glass ceramics is remarkably reduced. Based on this, B 2 O 3 The content of (2) is not more than 5%, and may be specifically 0, 0.1%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% or 5%.
Zirconia (ZrO) 2 ) Is a nucleating agent in microcrystalline glass. Proper amount of nucleating agent can reduce Zn 2 SiO 4 Crystalline phase and ZnAl 2 O 4 The crystallite size of the crystalline phase is such that the glass-ceramic remains transparent. In some embodiments, the nucleating agent is capable of forming the glass system into a crystalline phase without crystallization. Based on this, zrO 2 The content of (2) is not more than 5%, and may be specifically 0, 0.1%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% or 5%. Magnesium oxide (MgO) can reduce the viscosity of a glass system at high temperature and improve the forming property of glass. However, too high a magnesium oxide content results in a significant reduction in the depth of the compressive stress layer formed by the ion exchange. Based on this, the content of MgO does not exceed 8%, and specifically may be 0, 0.1%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7% or 8%.
In a specific example, the glass-ceramic composition further comprises MgO, and the crystalline phase further comprises Mg x Zn (1-x) Al 2 O 4 A crystalline phase, wherein 0 < x.ltoreq.1. The glass ceramics of this example also contains Mg x Zn (1-x) Al 2 O 4 The crystalline phase can further improve the mechanical strength of the glass ceramics.
In a specific example, the microcrystalline glass also comprises the following components in percentage by massMore than 0.5% SnO 2 、CeO 2 And Sb (Sb) 2 O 3
Tin oxide (SnO) 2 ) Cerium oxide (CeO) 2 ) And antimony trioxide (Sb) 2 O 3 ) Can be used as clarifier. Due to TiO 2 Ti of (B) 4+ The valence state change can occur in the microcrystalline glass, which is easy to cause the microcrystalline glass to be black, so that a small amount of clarifying agent is added to ensure the oxidizing atmosphere in the melting process, and the transparency of the microcrystalline glass is increased. SnO (SnO) 2 、CeO 2 And Sb (Sb) 2 O 3 The sum of the mass percentages of (a) is not more than 0.5%, and may be specifically 0, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4% or 0.5%.
In a specific example, siO 2 The mass percentage of (a) is 50% -66%, and can be 50%, 51%, 52%, 53%, 54%, 55%, 56%, 57%, 58%, 59%, 60%, 61%, 62%, 63%, 64%, 65% or 66%.
In a specific example, al 2 O 3 The mass percentage of (2) is 20% -25%, and can be specifically 20%, 21%, 22%, 23%, 24% or 25%.
In a specific example, li 2 The mass percentage of O is 0.1% -2%, and can be specifically 0.1%, 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.8%, 1.0%, 1.2%, 1.5%, 1.6% or 2%.
In a specific example, the ZnO is 5% -14.7% by mass, and may specifically be 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14% or 14.7%.
In one specific example, P 2 O 5 The mass percentage of (2) is 0-2.5%, and can be specifically 0, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2% or 2.5%.
In one specific example, tiO 2 The mass percentage of (2% -5%), specifically can be 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5% or 5%.
In a specific example, na 2 The mass percentage of O is 0.1% -4%, and can be specifically 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5% or 4%.
Further, the application also provides a preparation method of the microcrystalline glass, which comprises the following steps:
s100: weighing raw materials according to the components of the microcrystalline glass;
s200: melting and shaping raw materials to prepare precursor glass;
s300: and crystallizing the precursor glass to prepare the microcrystalline glass.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the present application.
The preparation process and test method of the glass ceramics and the reinforced glass ceramics of examples 1 to 30 and comparative examples 1 to 2 are as follows:
(1) Preparation of precursor glass
Examples 1-30 and comparative examples 1-2 were formulated according to the composition ratios (mass percent) designed in tables 1-6, and those skilled in the art can appropriately select commonly used glass raw materials (e.g., oxides and nitrates) so that the resulting precursor glasses had the compositions shown in the tables. Weigh the ingredients with total mass greater than 1000 g, mix them thoroughly and place them in a platinum crucible with volume greater than 400 mL. Then, the platinum crucible is put into a silicon-molybdenum furnace to be melted on 8 h at 1600 ℃, homogenized and cast into a die, and precision annealing is carried out at an annealing temperature of 500 ℃ to obtain the precursor glass.
(2) Preparation of microcrystalline glass
The precursor glasses obtained in each example and comparative example were subjected to crystallization treatment to obtain microcrystalline glass, and specific tempering conditions are shown in tables 1 to 6. The obtained glass ceramics are cut into glass ceramics slices of 5 mm multiplied by 5 mm multiplied by 0.8 mm, and preparation is made for the subsequent chemical tempering treatment. The composition of the glass hardly changed before and after the crystallization treatment, and only a crystal phase was formed in the glass. In other words, the composition of the glass-ceramic is the same as the composition of the precursor glass.
(3) Preparation of reinforced microcrystalline glass
The glass ceramic sheets of examples 1 to 30 were subjected to two-step ion exchange, and specific tempering conditions are shown in tables 1 to 5. Since the precursor glasses obtained in comparative examples 1 and 2 had poor properties after crystallization treatment and were difficult to chemically temper, the tempered glass ceramics were not prepared in comparative examples 1 and 2. In addition, na in the glass ceramics of example 3 2 O、Li 2 O and K 2 Low O content, na capable of ion exchange + 、Li + And K + Since ion exchange is difficult, tempering is not performed.
(4) Performance test method
The thermal expansion curve of the precursor glass before crystallization treatment was tested at a temperature rising rate of 5 ℃/min using a thermal expansion instrument (NETZSCH-DIL 402PC, resistant to relaxation, germany) and with reference to the GB/T16920-2015 standard, and the coefficient of thermal expansion CTE and glass transition temperature Tg were obtained by self-contained software.
The vickers hardness of the precursor glass before crystallization treatment, the microcrystalline glass after crystallization treatment and the tempered microcrystalline glass after tempering treatment were tested using a vickers hardness tester (FALCON-400 of anethole) and referring to GB/T37900-2019 standard.
The transmittance (i.e., visible light transmittance) of crystallized glass ceramics in the wavelength range of 380 nm to 800 nm is tested by an ultraviolet-visible light spectrophotometer (Lambda 950 of Perkinelmer corporation, U.S.) and by referring to the GB/T40415-2021 standard.
The crystallinity and the composition of the crystalline phase of the crystallized glass ceramics were tested by an X-ray diffractometer (Empyrean, shanghai's baiji instrument systems, inc.), and the compositions of the crystalline phases of the precursor glasses of comparative examples 1 to 2 after crystallization were tested.
The ion exchange depth of the tempered glass ceramics after the chemical tempering treatment was tested by a surface stress instrument (FSM 6000UV of japan foldback).

TABLE 6
As can be seen from the test results of tables 1 to 6, the glass ceramics of examples 1 to 30 include Zn 2 SiO 4 Crystalline phase and ZnAl 2 O 4 The crystalline phase has higher hardness after crystallization treatment, which means that the glass ceramics of the above embodiments have higher mechanical strength and higher visible light transmittance. In addition, the microcrystalline glass of examples 1 to 30 can obtain a stress layer with a larger ion exchange depth after the tempering treatment, which indicates that the microcrystalline glass has better ion exchange performance, and thus the tempered microcrystalline glass with higher hardness can be obtained.
Li in the glass composition of comparative example 1 2 Higher O content, excessive Li 2 O forms LiAl (SiO 3 ) 2 As is clear from the test results, the precursor glass of comparative example 1 is subject to cracking after crystallization treatment, and the obtained glass-ceramic is whitish and opaque, and is difficult to meet the requirements of practical applications. The glass composition of comparative example 2 does not satisfy the range of the present application, and ZnAl is not contained in the glass ceramic 2 O 4 A crystal phase having a hardness of only 6.1 GPa, which indicates Zn in the glass ceramics of the present application 2 SiO 4 Crystalline phase and ZnAl 2 O 4 The crystalline phase can improve the hardness of the glass ceramics, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the mechanical strength of the glass ceramics.
