Description

Alumina ceramic grinding ball with adjustable specific gravity and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of ceramic grinding balls, in particular to an alumina ceramic grinding ball with adjustable specific gravity and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Ceramic grinding balls are widely used in industrial powder and slurry grinding processes. Compared with metal grinding balls, the ceramic grinding balls have the remarkable advantages of high hardness, small abrasion, corrosion resistance and the like, and the ceramic grinding balls have the advantages of less heating, no static electricity and low noise in the grinding process. In addition, as the density of the ceramic grinding balls is smaller, the loading capacity of the ball mill can be reduced, the overall load is obviously reduced, and the ceramic grinding balls have good energy-saving effect. However, as such, the ceramic grinding balls have low kinetic energy and low grinding efficiency under the same conditions. Taking the most widely used Al 2O3 ceramic grinding balls in industry as an example, the density of the ceramic grinding balls is only 2.95-3.85 g/cm 3, and the density of the ceramic grinding balls is much lower than that of the most common steel grinding balls, namely, the density of the ceramic grinding balls is 7.75-8.0 g/cm 3. The density of the ZrO 2 ceramic grinding balls can reach 6.0 g/cm 3, and the density of the ZTA grinding balls is 4.0-6.0 g/cm 3, but the material grinding balls are expensive, so that the wider application of the ceramic grinding balls is limited.
The invention patent (CN 202310819423.5) discloses a wear-resistant ceramic grinding ball with high iron content. The wear-resistant ceramic grinding ball with large specific gravity (3.86-4.33 g/cm 3) is prepared by introducing high-proportion ferric oxide (20-60 wt%) into a formula and converting the ferric oxide into spinel group minerals. However, since the iron oxide component of the grinding balls is high, iron impurities are easily introduced during the ball milling process, resulting in lower purity of the discharged material.
The invention patent (CN 201710586743.5) discloses a metal and ceramic composite grinding medium for a ball mill and a preparation method thereof, wherein the grinding medium comprises a metal inner core and an outer ceramic layer coated on the outer peripheral surface of the metal inner core. Because the compact metal ball is adopted as the inner core, although the transition layer is designed, the bonding property between the compact surface of the metal ball core and the ceramic ball shell is still weaker; more importantly, the thermal expansion coefficients of the metal spherical core and the ceramic spherical shell are not matched, and obvious thermal stress exists at the joint part of the metal spherical core and the ceramic spherical shell during sintering and cooling, so that the strength of the joint part is further reduced.
Thus, the prior art has the following drawbacks:
1. The alumina ceramic grinding ball has small specific gravity and low grinding efficiency; the ceramic grinding ball with high specific gravity is usually made of ZrO 2 material, and has high cost;
2. The proportion of the ceramic grinding balls is increased by directly adding metal components into the ingredients, but metal impurities are introduced in the ball milling process, so that grinding pollution is caused;
3. The composite ceramic grinding ball is directly manufactured by taking metal as an inner core, the problem of poor combination of the metal inner core and a ceramic shell layer exists, the thermal expansion coefficients are not matched, and obvious thermal stress exists during sintering and cooling, so that the strength of a combination part is further deteriorated.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to overcome the defects of the prior art and provides an alumina ceramic grinding ball with adjustable specific gravity and a preparation method thereof, wherein large-specific-gravity metal powder is used as a raw material to be mixed with alumina ceramic powder to obtain ball core powder, the ball core powder is subjected to heat treatment to obtain metal ceramic ball cores with certain porosity, and the coated ceramic powder is matched with the ball core powder to be beneficial to improving the bonding strength of the ball cores and ceramic shell layers, so that the wear-resistant Al 2O3 ceramic grinding ball with low cost, no grinding pollution and adjustable specific gravity is obtained.
The invention provides the following technical scheme:
the invention provides a preparation method of an alumina ceramic grinding ball with adjustable specific gravity, which comprises the following steps:
mixing metal powder and alumina ceramic powder in proportion to obtain spherical core powder, and preparing spherical cores from the spherical core powder after heat treatment;
coating the spherical cores by using alumina ceramic powder to obtain green bodies;
the green body is sintered after being subjected to isostatic pressing and drying treatment, and the ceramic grinding ball is obtained;
The mass ratio of the alumina ceramic powder to the metal powder is 1:1-1:9; the ratio of the diameter of the ball core to the diameter of the green body is 2:5-4:5.
According to the invention, the metal powder and the alumina ceramic powder are mixed, the spherical core powder obtained after forming and heat treatment is of a porous structure (with a certain porosity), and the porous structure is beneficial to mutual 'penetration' between the spherical core and the spherical shell, so that an 'occlusion' structure is formed at an interface, the interface bonding strength is improved, and the bonding strength between the spherical core and the spherical shell is improved.
Because the expansion coefficients of the metal and the ceramic are greatly different, if the ball is manufactured by adopting the preparation method of CN201710586743.5, on one hand, in the heating stage of the sintering process, the excessive thermal expansion of the metal ball core can lead to the cracking of the ceramic ball shell which is not yet sintered; on the other hand, in the cooling stage, the metal sphere core is obviously contracted relative to the ceramic sphere shell, so that the strength of a bonding interface between the metal sphere core and the ceramic sphere shell is obviously reduced, and even peeling occurs.
The porous structure ball core prepared by proportioning the metal powder and the ceramic powder can overcome the defect caused by large difference of expansion coefficients of the metal and the ceramic, and is beneficial to the strength of the grinding ball. This is because, on the one hand, the porous structure has good volume stability, i.e.: excessive volume changes can be accommodated, thereby overcoming the above-mentioned drawbacks due to thermal expansion mismatch; on the other hand, the thermal expansion coefficient of the metal ceramic formula is between that of the metal and the ceramic, so that the performance matching between the ball core and the ball shell is favorably coordinated.
Further, the step of preparing the spherical core powder into spherical cores comprises the following steps: mixing the ball core powder with paraffin, oleic acid and beeswax, heating, stirring, vacuumizing to obtain ball core wax slurry, forming the ball core wax slurry by using a hot-press injection forming process, and then performing wax removal to obtain the ball core.
Further, the spherical core powder: paraffin wax: oleic acid: the mass ratio of the beeswax is 100: (12-15): (0.4-0.8): (0.6-0.8).
Further, the temperature is raised to 1000 ℃ at a heating rate of 1.5 ℃/min for wax removal, and the temperature is kept for 30min ℃ and then cooled to room temperature.
The step of preparing the spherical core powder into the spherical core in the invention can also adopt another mode, and the step comprises the following steps: the method comprises the steps of rolling ball core powder into balls by taking polyvinyl alcohol solution as a binder, and preparing the ball cores through high-frequency induction heating treatment.
Further, the high-frequency induction heating treatment process conditions are as follows: the heating time is 10-30 s, the heat preservation time is 5-30 s, and the cooling time is 5-10 s.
Further, the alumina ceramic powder comprises 80-97wt% of Al 2O3,1-10wt% SiO2 and 2-10wt% of CaO, and the alumina ceramic powder can be doped and substituted by tetragonal zirconia powder, wherein the substitution amount is 0-50wt%. The toughness of the Al 2O3 ceramic can be effectively improved by introducing the Tetragonal Zirconia Powder (TZP) component, so that the material has stronger impact resistance and excellent toughness and wear resistance.
Further, the metal powder is any one of iron powder, steel powder or tungsten powder.
Further, after mixing the metal powder and the alumina ceramic powder, adding a grinding aid, and performing ball milling to obtain spherical core powder, wherein the spherical core powder passes through a 200-mesh sieve with the residue of less than 0.1 wt%.
Further, the green body is isostatically pressed at 200 Mpa, then dried at 90 ℃, and then heated to 1350-1800 ℃ for firing.
The invention also provides the alumina ceramic grinding ball with adjustable specific gravity prepared by the preparation method.
The invention has the following beneficial effects:
1. according to the invention, the metal powder and the alumina ceramic powder are mixed to prepare the spherical core with a pore structure, so that the bonding strength of the spherical core and the shell is improved, the defect caused by large difference of thermal expansion coefficients of metal and ceramic is overcome, and the strength of the grinding ball is improved;
2. the invention can effectively adjust the specific gravity of the grinding ball by controlling the adding proportion of the metal powder and the duty ratio of the inner core, and is applicable to ball milling scenes with different requirements;
3. Compared with the metal grinding ball, the grinding ball prepared by the invention has lower abrasion and higher loading capacity, and as the metal is in the inner core, no metal impurity is introduced in the ball milling process, and the discharge is cleaner; the ceramic grinding balls have a greater specific gravity than alumina ceramic grinding balls, lower cost and greater hardness than zirconia grinding balls.
