Description

Method for realizing giant expansion material, giant expansion material and application
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of thermal expansion, in particular to a realization method of a giant expansion material lithium metaborate, a giant expansion material and application.
Background
Thermal expansion phenomenon is common in nature. The temperature influences the change of the crystal size, wherein the lattice parameter of one type of material can be suddenly changed under the action of the temperature, and the change can be transferred to the macroscopic structure through the periodicity of the lattice, so that the macroscopic shape is finally deformed severely. The material with huge shape change under the temperature stimulus has potential application value in the field of thermal switches.
The bulk crystals of crystalline organic compounds having giant expansion properties often accompany large macroscopic shape changes during the temperature rise. By entropy driving the redirection of organic molecules in a specific framework structure, induced structural phase changes result in a change in crystal dimensions of about 10%. In contrast, most inorganic structures generally exhibit a change in unit cell volume of around 5% due to thermal phase transformation, while ICSD shows 53% expansion of unit cell volume before and after phase transformation of diamond and cubic boron nitride, indicating the potential of inorganic materials in thermally induced deformation. However, the phase change conditions of the two materials are harsh, so that the inorganic materials have huge lattice parameter mutation and meanwhile have mild phase change conditions, which is still a difficult problem for research in the field.

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.
The implementation method of the giant expansion material provided by the embodiment of the application comprises the following steps: annealing tetragonal lithium metaborate at a temperature of 600-740 ℃, wherein the tetragonal lithium metaborate undergoes shape change.
It should be noted that: although the crystalline organic compound has more free structural design and can easily obtain special structures with unconventional properties, the properties of the crystalline organic compound are not dependent on topological structures, so that the preparation process behind the properties is low in universality and the difficulty in exploring the structures required by the characteristics is high. The temperature induced change in macroscopic dimensions of the crystalline organic compound is still low (5-20%). Although diamond and cubic boron nitride exhibit a great abrupt change in this respect, they are not suitable for practical applications due to the severe phase change conditions (vacuum, high temperature or high pressure extreme conditions). The diamond and cubic boron nitride are similar in structure, and the unit cell change caused by phase change is the same, indicating that the characteristic depends on the topology in the inorganic material. However, in the current research, the volume mutation caused by the thermal phase change of the inorganic material is still very weak, and the directivity of structural design is low.
With reference to the structural features of diamond, we speculate that the material needs to possess two features: 1) The structure has compactness, so that the internal stress of the structure is provided in the heating process to force atoms to be redistributed so as to cause structural change; 2) Has ionic groups to satisfy the effect of reducing the phase change condition.
By searching the ICSD library, the lithium metaborate structure has atomic distributions similar to diamond and cubic boron nitride, and structural gaps are occupied by ionic groups, so that the requirements are met. Tests show that the volume mutation is increased by 34% after the thermally induced phase transition, the millimeter-sized monocrystal of the lithium metaborate has similar shape deformation, and the lithium metaborate has the structural characteristics, so that the lithium metaborate has the potential of a giant expansion material.
In this embodiment, the tetragonal phase lithium metaborate is converted to monoclinic phase lithium metaborate.
In this embodiment, the tetragonal lithium metaborate is a powder or bulk crystal.
In this example, the rate of change of lattice parameters a, b, c and unit cell volume V of the lithium metaborate before and after phase transition was 37.7%,2.6% and 33.6%, respectively.
Referring to fig. 1, the lattice parameter and the unit cell volume of lithium metaborate provided in this embodiment change with temperature, blue circles, diamonds and squares correspond to a, b and c of the crystal, respectively, and red spheres represent the unit cell volume of the crystal. As can be seen from fig. 1, the unit cell parameters and unit cell volume mutation of the lithium metaborate before and after phase change are respectively 37.7%,2.6%,2.6% and 33.6%, and the lithium metaborate also shows obvious shape change under a macroscopic scale compared with the unit cell volume change of the organic compound by several times.
In this embodiment, the lithium metaborate expands significantly in macroscopic size after phase transition, and the expansion rate is 30-60% by calculating the area surrounded by the envelope.
Referring to fig. 2, in the pictures (upper pictures) of the low temperature phase at 587 ℃ and the high temperature phase at 640 ℃ under the microscope (lower pictures) provided in this embodiment, the outlines of the crystals are outlined by pink lines, and the macroscopic expansion behavior of the crystals can be clearly seen in the illustration, wherein the temperature rising rate is 0.6 ℃/min, the temperature rises from 570 ℃ to 650 ℃, and the front-rear envelope area expands by 50%.
Referring to FIG. 3, there is shown a schematic diagram of the phase transition and melting of the two front and rear peaks, respectively, as a result of differential scanning calorimetry at 25-1200 ℃.
As can be seen from fig. 3, DSC shows two peaks in the temperature rising process of 25-1200 ℃, which respectively show phase change and melting, and it should be mentioned that the phase change peak will change according to factors such as temperature rising rate and sample state, so that the phase change temperature interval from the first peak at 600 ℃ to the second peak at 740 ℃ is the phase change temperature interval of lithium metaborate.
Referring to fig. 4, the tetragonal lithium metaborate bulk crystal is in the form of tetragonal lithium metaborate at different temperatures, and undergoes the processes of non-phase transformation and surface phase transformation to complete phase transformation from 584 ℃ to 687 ℃, and the crystal form is disintegrated from bulk to powder state, and the whole process is subjected to 26min. .
It is understood that if the rate of temperature rise is increased, the lithium metaborate bulk crystal will disintegrate into a powder state, and that the dramatic change in morphology is of value in thermal switching applications. When the temperature exceeds the target temperature, the lithium metaborate is rapidly disintegrated into powder as a safety device, and the device switch is turned off. The tetragonal phase and the tetragonal phase can be mutually converted through temperature and pressure, so that the cyclic use is realized, and the cost is saved.
Referring to fig. 5, curves 1 to 5 respectively represent a low-temperature tetragonal phase (1), a high Wen Shanxie phase (2) of the low-temperature tetragonal phase after heat treatment, and a low-temperature monoclinic phase (3) synthesized again from the high-temperature tetragonal phase, and thus, the curves 4 to 5 undergo the same treatment for 2 to 3 cycles for the second time to indicate that the material can be recycled.
The lithium metaborate structure provided by the application has the atomic distribution similar to diamond and cubic boron nitride, structural gaps are occupied by ionic groups, the structure has compactness, the condition that structural internal stress is provided to force atoms to redistribute in the heating process can be met, huge volume expansion is caused before and after phase transition of the tetragonal lithium metaborate structure, structural transition is initiated, the structural transition can be directly reflected to macroscopic dimensions, the phase transition condition is mild, the lithium metaborate structure can be suitable for occasions of practical application, and the function of a thermal switch can be better realized through larger macroscopic shape change.
It will be understood that the technical features of the above-described embodiments may be combined in any manner, and that all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are not described for brevity, however, they should be considered as being within the scope of the description provided in the present specification, as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.
The foregoing description of the preferred embodiments of the present application has been provided for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the present application and is not meant to limit the scope of the present application in any way. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application, and other embodiments of the present application, which may occur to those skilled in the art without the exercise of inventive faculty, are intended to be included within the scope of the present application, based on the teachings herein.
