Description

High-thermal-conductivity aluminum nitride ceramic and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of ceramic materials, in particular to high-thermal-conductivity aluminum nitride ceramic and a preparation method thereof.

Aluminum nitride belongs to covalent compounds, has small self-diffusion coefficient, is difficult to directly sinter and densify, and covers an aluminum oxide film on the surface of aluminum nitride due to the characteristic of easy oxidization, so in the actual production of aluminum nitride ceramics, a sintering aid is generally introduced to react with aluminum oxide at high temperature to generate a second phase so as to reduce the content of solid solution oxygen in crystal lattice, and sintering is promoted at the same time, so that the preparation of the aluminum nitride ceramics with high thermal conductivity is realized. A large amount of experimental study data show that the aluminum nitride ceramic can obtain higher heat conductivity by using the sintering aid than by not using the sintering aid, and in the sintering study in recent years, the effect of improving the heat conductivity by using a plurality of sintering aids is more obvious than that by using a single sintering aid.

Drawings
The technical scheme of the embodiment of the invention is further described in detail through the drawings and the embodiments.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a preparation method of high-thermal-conductivity aluminum nitride ceramics according to an embodiment of the invention.
Detailed Description
The invention is further illustrated by the drawings and the specific examples, which are to be understood as being for the purpose of more detailed description only and are not to be construed as limiting the invention in any way, i.e. not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
The invention provides a preparation method of high-heat-conductivity aluminum nitride ceramics, which is shown in figure 1, and comprises the following steps:
and 110, uniformly mixing the first sintering aid, the second sintering aid, the third sintering aid and aluminum nitride powder to obtain mixed powder, adding an aqueous solution of an adhesive, uniformly ball-milling, and performing isostatic pressing to obtain the aluminum nitride ceramic green body.
Because of the easy oxidation property of aluminum nitride, a thin alumina film is arranged on the surface of aluminum nitride, the sintering aid can react with alumina existing on the surface of aluminum nitride at a lower sintering temperature to generate liquid-phase aluminate, the aluminum nitride particles can be rearranged due to the action of the surface tension of the liquid phase, and the mass transfer process is accelerated by the liquid phase to enable the ceramic to be more compact.
The grain size of the aluminum nitride powder selected by the invention is 0.5-2 mu m, and the invention adopts three sintering aids, wherein the first sintering aid, the second sintering aid and the third sintering aid comprise any three of rare earth metal oxide, alkaline earth metal oxide and metal fluoride. For example, the first sintering aid, the second sintering aid, and the third sintering aid may be selected from YF 3 、CeO 2 、SmF 3 、Dy 2 O 3 、Yb 2 O 3 、Sm 2 O 3 、Y 2 O 2 、B 2 O 3 、CaO、CaF 2 Any three of these.
The proper amount of sintering aid is helpful for densification of ceramics so as to improve heat conductivity, the liquid phase formed by too little sintering aid at high temperature cannot enable far aluminum nitride particles to be close to each other, and good sintering effect cannot be achieved, but because the sintering aid and aluminate formed by the sintering aid are low in heat conductivity and obstruct phonon heat transfer, the excessive sintering aid can reduce the heat conductivity of aluminum nitride, and in the application, the consumption of the sintering aid meets the following conditions:
the mass of the first sintering aid accounts for 0.1% -5% of the mass of the mixed powder, the mass of the second sintering aid accounts for 0.1% -5% of the mass of the mixed powder, the mass of the third sintering aid accounts for 0.1% -5% of the mass of the mixed powder, and the total mass of the first sintering aid, the second sintering aid and the third sintering aid is not more than 8% of the mass of the mixed powder.
The solute in the aqueous adhesive solution comprises one or more of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polyvinyl butyral (PVB), the mass fraction of the aqueous adhesive solution is 8-15%, and the mass of the aqueous adhesive solution is 10-18% of the mass of the mixed powder.
In the green forming stage, isostatic pressing is utilized, wherein liquid is utilized as a pressure conducting medium in a closed die, powder is densified by applying pressure to the powder, and the method specifically comprises the steps of cold isostatic pressing, wherein the pressure of the cold isostatic pressing is 150-400 MPa, and the time of the cold isostatic pressing is 40-100 seconds.
Step 120, heating the aluminum nitride ceramic green body to 400 ℃ at a heating rate of 0.1 ℃/min-0.5 ℃/min, preserving heat for 4 hours-24 hours, heating to 600 ℃ to 800 ℃ at a heating rate of 0.1 ℃/min-0.5 ℃/min, preserving heat for 8 hours-36 hours, and naturally cooling along with a furnace to perform plastic removal.
The prepared aluminum nitride ceramic green body contains an aqueous solution of a binder, which is equivalent to that a part of the mass of the aluminum nitride ceramic green body is from water and a binder, the binder in the green body can be decomposed at high temperature, and the green body can be deformed and broken because the binder is rapidly decomposed and discharged in the plastic removing process. On one hand, a large number of holes are generated in the blank body due to decomposition and volatilization of the adhesive, so that the mechanical properties of the plastic-removed blank body are affected; on the other hand, the difference in the burning rate of organic matters on the surface and in the interior of the green body can cause the difference in the residual carbon content of the green body, and the green body is easy to break after plastic removal, so that the warping of the later-stage ceramic is caused.
In order to prevent the problems, the method comprises the steps of heating and cooling in two steps, slowing down the heating rate and the cooling rate, prolonging the heat preservation time, and further reducing the damage of a blank, specifically, the method comprises the steps of firstly heating to 400 ℃ at the heating rate of 0.1 ℃/min-0.5 ℃/min, preserving heat for 4-24 hours, and slowly heating in the stage, so that on one hand, the generation of holes is reduced when the binder is cracked, decomposed and discharged, and the blank is densified; on the other hand, the method is beneficial to the small difference of the speed of the surface and the internal binder of the green body when being discharged after being decomposed, reduces the difference of the residual carbon content of the green body, and avoids the breakage after plastic removal and the warpage of the later-stage ceramic; then heating to 600-800 ℃ at the heating rate of 0.1-0.5 ℃/min, and preserving heat for 8-36 hours, wherein the process aims to drain carbon remained by decomposing the binder as much as possible, so that the prepared green body has certain strength.
130, placing the green body after the plastic removal into a sintering furnace, heating to 1600-2200 ℃ at a heating rate of 0.5-1 ℃/min under an inert atmosphere, preserving heat for 8-48 hours, cooling to 900 ℃ at a cooling rate of 0.1-0.5 ℃/min after the sintering is finished, and naturally cooling along with the furnace to obtain the high-heat-conductivity aluminum nitride ceramic.
Holes may exist in the green body after the plastic removal, so that the slow heating rate and cooling rate are beneficial to further densification of the ceramic in the sintering process, and meanwhile, the warp deformation of the ceramic is reduced.
Step 130 is performed under inert atmosphere protection, because aluminum nitride powder is oxidized in air at a temperature below 1000 ℃, even sintered compact aluminum nitride ceramics are oxidized at a temperature around 1100 ℃, and the inert atmosphere protection can prevent the phenomenon, and the inert gas forming the inert atmosphere is selected to be high-purity nitrogen with the purity higher than 99.999%.
The invention adopts three sintering aids and isostatic compaction preparation modes, and adopts a slow heating and slow cooling mode in the processes of plastic removal and sintering, so that the prepared aluminum nitride ceramic has high thermal conductivity and high density, and the problem of aluminum nitride ceramic warp deformation caused by too high heating and cooling rate is avoided.

(5) Warp degree
And (5) measuring by adopting an automatic optical detection method.
The results of the tests for density, thermal conductivity, flexural strength and warpage are shown in Table 1.
TABLE 1
Comparing the data of example 1 and comparative example 1 in table 1, it can be seen that the warpage of example 1 is significantly lower than that of comparative example 1, and the density, compactibility, thermal conductivity and flexural strength are also significantly better than those of comparative example 1, because, first, a slow temperature rise and slow temperature drop mode is adopted in example 1 during the de-molding process, (1) it is advantageous to reduce the occurrence of voids during the cracking, decomposition and discharge of the binder, so that the green body densifies itself; (2) The method is beneficial to the small difference of discharge rates of the decomposed surface and internal binders of the green body, reduces the difference of residual carbon content of the green body, and avoids breaking after plastic removal and warping of later-stage ceramics; (3) The method is beneficial to exhausting the residual carbon of the binder decomposition as much as possible, so that the prepared green body has certain strength. Secondly, in the sintering process, the embodiment 1 also adopts a slow heating and slow cooling mode, which is favorable for eliminating holes possibly still existing in the green body, further densification of the ceramic in the sintering process and reducing warp deformation of the ceramic. Namely, in the process of plastic removal and sintering, the embodiment 1 adopts a slow heating and slow cooling mode, so that not only is the densification of the ceramic itself improved, but also the heat conductivity of the ceramic is improved, the bending strength is also improved, and meanwhile, the buckling deformation of the lithium nitride ceramic caused by the too fast heating rate or cooling rate is avoided.
Comparing the data in example 1 and comparative example 2 in table 1, it can be seen that the density, density and flexural strength in example 1 are significantly better than those in comparative example 2, which means that the density, thermal conductivity and flexural strength of the aluminum nitride ceramics prepared by cold isostatic pressing are significantly better than those of aluminum nitride ceramics prepared by casting, because the cold isostatic pressing can uniformly compress the powder in all directions, and the incompressibility and uniformity of the liquid are utilized to transfer the pressure characteristics, so that the stress in each direction of the powder is uniform and uniform, and the uniform stress makes the internal structure of the prepared green body uniform, i.e. the internal uniformity of the green body prepared by cold isostatic pressing is uniform, and the performance of the finally sintered aluminum nitride ceramics is improved.
The invention adopts three sintering aids and cold isostatic pressing forming preparation modes, and adopts slow heating and slow cooling modes in the processes of plastic removal and sintering, so that the prepared aluminum nitride ceramic has high thermal conductivity and high density, and the problem of aluminum nitride ceramic warp deformation caused by too high heating and cooling rate is avoided.
