Description

Heating evaporation prepares the method and apparatus of ultra micro powder
The present invention relates to prepare the technology of ultra micro powder.Specifically, it relates to the method and apparatus that a kind of heating evaporation prepares the ultra micro powder.
When adopting the eddy-current heating evaporation to prepare metal and alloy ultra micro powder, its heating-up temperature generally is lower than 2000 ℃, these characteristics make this method not be suitable for the ultra micro powder of preparation refractory metal and alloy and compound, simultaneously, this temperature is also far below the boiling point of common metal and alloy, fusing point as aluminium is 660 ℃, and boiling point is but up to 2450 ℃; The fusing point of copper is 1083 ℃, and boiling point reaches 2595 ℃; The fusing point of iron is 1536 ℃, and boiling point is 3000 ℃.And generally be respectively 1400 ℃, 1500 ℃, 1600 ℃ with the heating-up temperature that the eddy-current heating evaporation prepares aluminium, copper, iron ultra micro powder, far below boiling point separately.Thereby to prepare the productive rate of metal and alloy ultra micro powder low with the eddy-current heating evaporation be understandable.In order to increase productive rate, to improve output, all adopt increase disengagement area (strengthening the crucible bore) and raising power (having surpassed 200KW) to realize both at home and abroad.But for above-mentioned reasons, the productive rate for preparing metal and alloy ultra micro powder in this way is generally at 0.1~0.5Kg/hr, and domestic productive rate is lower than 0.1Kg/hr.And energy consumption is huge, valuable product.See " Metal Substrate Investigation on Ultrafine Powders " (Zhongnan Polytechnic Univ's thesis for the doctorate, in October, 1997) that Yan Hongge delivers.
Utilize laser as thermal source, heat solid metal or alloy in inert gas (Ar, He etc.) makes it evaporation, evaporation atom with the continuous collision of gas molecule in cool off, reach hypersaturated state, produce the cohesion growth, form the ultra micro powder.With the ultra micro powder purity height that laser heating method is produced, particle diameter is little, distributes to concentrate, and sphere is good.But solid metal and alloy are strong to the albedo of laser, and matrix heat radiation also will consume big energy, therefore, directly with laser metal and alloy are carried out fusion and evaporation and to prepare the efficient of ultra micro powder lower.The interactive of laser and material be studies show that the absorptivity of material for laser light changes with temperature, its variation tendency is to increase with temperature rising absorptivity.Metal absorptivity to laser when room temperature is very little (to CO 2Laser, the absorptivity of Al, Cu, Fe is respectively 1.9%, 1.5%, 3.5%), when temperature was elevated near fusing point, its absorptivity can reach 40~50%; Near boiling point, its absorptivity is up to 90% as temperature.
The present invention is according to preparation metal and the eddy-current heating evaporation of alloy ultra micro powder and the These characteristics of LASER HEATING method, these two kinds of methods are compound, purpose is to provide a kind of brand-new laser and responds to the method and apparatus that compound heating evaporation prepares the ultra micro powder, on the high basis of the ultra micro powder cleannes that keep being produced and purity, improve the productive rate and the output of ultra micro powder.
The objective of the invention is to realize by following method and apparatus.
Heating evaporation prepares the method for ultra micro powder: vaporization chamber is evacuated to 1 * 10 1~1 * 10 -5Pa in the time of with eddy-current heating metal or alloy raw material, introduces laser action in the metal or alloy surface, makes it quicken fusing and vaporization, and by cooling, the metal or alloy devaporation that is evaporated becomes the ultra micro powder.
The vaporization chamber device of realizing said method comprises: have the container of laser import on the wall, be provided with crucible and induction heater in container.
Advantage of the present invention is to utilize eddy-current heating fusing metal or alloy, make it to keep higher temperature, and laser had bigger absorptivity, then laser is introduced vaporization chamber, act on liquid metal or alloy surface, its laser action district is reached or near boiling point, near liquid metal or alloy surface top, form high barometric gradient and thermograde, quicken the evaporation of liquid metal or alloy, and then can increase ultra micro powder productive rate, raising output, cut down the consumption of energy and production cost.
Accompanying drawing is to be used for laser and the compound structural representation that adds a kind of embodiment of vaporization chamber device of hot preparation ultra micro powder method of induction.
Describe optimum implementation of the present invention in detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
In double-deck, have laser import 12 on the wall of cold rustless steel container 6, a gas feed 7 or two gas feeds 7,8, also can have charging aperture 3 and watch window 4, in container 6, be provided with resistant to elevated temperatures crucible 9 and induction heater 5, above crucible 9, be provided with metal tube 2, metal tube 2 links to each other with trap and air extractor, its outer surface is mounted with cooling device 1, cooling device 1 is made up of water-cooled or the cold copper pipe of fluorine, directly soldering is on metal tube 2 outer walls, and metal tube 2 is fixed on the wall of container 6.Metal tube 2 is capture passages of ultra micro powder, and cooling device then cools off by the metal and the alloy vapor of metal pipe-wall to evaporation, and suppresses the ultra micro powder and grow up.In the lower end of metal tube 2 radiation shield 10 is housed, and communicate with metal tube 2, have laser via 11 on it, be used for blocking the direct radiation of liquid metal or alloy to laser, radiation shield 10 adopts the sphere configuration design, improves the thermal efficiency of evaporated metal or alloy by the spheric reflection effect.
