Description

A kind of preparation method of high-toughness alumina ceramics
The present invention relates to a kind of novel method for preparing high-toughness alumina ceramics, belong to technical field of material.
Alumina ceramic material is because of having excellent mechanical property and electrical property, and low cost of manufacture; Therefore be present most widely used a kind of advanced ceramics material.Adopt high purity submicron order ultra-fine alumina powder can prepare bending resistance by force up to the aluminum oxide high technology ceramics of 700~1000MPa.Yet the fracture toughness property of alumina ceramic material is very low, has only 3MPam usually 1/2Therefore, improve the target that the aluminium oxide ceramics fracture toughness is ceramic material scientist expectation and effort always.
In order to improve the fracture toughness property of alumina-ceramic, people grow second phase with toughening effect by adding a little auxiliary in the sintering process of aluminum oxide.As people such as the I-w Cheng of Michigan, United States university successfully in alumina sintering original position grow LaAl with tabular crystal formation 11O 18And LaMgAl 11O 19Toughness reinforcing phase makes this alumina-based ceramic material fracture toughness property reach 4.4MPam 1/2The people such as Japan Masaki Yasuoka are by adding the SiO of hundreds of ppm 2Auxiliary agent can be induced
Al 2O 3The matrix anisotropic grain growth goes out long column shape and tabular crystalline substance.They are with the high-purity Al of commerce 2O 3Synthetic LaAlO 3With silicon sol as initial feed, in 1600 ℃ of high temperature sinterings, growth in situ goes out to have simultaneously α-Al after the low temperature calcination 2O 3Long column shape and LaAl 11O 18Tabular crystalline substance, its bending strength is 600MPa, the tough 5.6MPam of reaching ruptures 1/2In sum, the method that improves at present aluminium oxide toughness mainly is the toughness reinforcing phase that has tabular crystalline form by growing in alumina substrate.A kind of Al 2O 3The complex phase ceramic of base.
The object of the invention proposes a kind of new method for preparing high-toughness alumina ceramics, and its principle is different from existing method.Not by adding sintering aid, but by introducing α-Al 2O 3Crystal seed is induced other Al 2O 3The long column shape alumina grain of (or claiming bar-shaped) is grown, grown to crystal grain anisotropy (mainly along the C axle) direction.These bar-like grains disperses are distributed in the normal Al of axle shapes such as being 2O 3Among the crystal grain.Because bar-shaped Al 2O 3Crystalline substance has crackle to be compiled and to turn to and transfer to effect, thus but the fracture toughness of Effective Raise material.
The preparation method of high-toughness alumina ceramics of the present invention comprises following each step:
1, initial ceramic raw material adopts three water aluminium compounds [Al (OH) 3] or boehmite [AlOOH], with α-Al 2O abrading-ball and deionized water are put into together ball grinder and carried out wet ball grinding, and addition is: ceramic raw material: the aluminium oxide abrading-ball: deionized water=1: 2-6: 1-2, Ball-milling Time are 30-90 hour; α-Al in mechanical milling process 2O 3α-Al that the abrading-ball surface is ground 2O 3Fine grained is as Al 2O 3Crystal seed is introduced.Crystal seed introducing amount is that 15-50wt% is (with Al (OH) 3Be base), can control α-Al by changing Ball-milling Time 2O 3Crystal seed introducing amount.
2, the mixed slurry behind the wet ball grinding after drying, calcination in high temperature Muffle furnace (1100-1300 ℃) makes three water aluminium compounds or boehmite change Al into 2O 3Crystalline phase.
3, the Al that obtains after the calcination 2O 3Material adds alcohol and carries out ball milling again, and Ball-milling Time is 10-20 hour, makes block material fully levigate.
4, the Al behind the ball milling 2O 3The powder drying is for subsequent use.
5, with the above-mentioned α-Al that introduced 2O 3The Al of crystal seed 2O 3The powder moulding, vacuum heating-press sintering then, sintering temperature is 1500~1650 ℃, temperature retention time namely got ceramic material of the present invention at 1~4 hour.α-Al in the sintering process 2O 3Crystal seed is induced part A l 2O 3Development growth is bar-shaped crystalline substance, is had simultaneously bar-shaped crystal alumina and the microstructure that waits axle shape crystal alumina, and this microstructure is given the aluminium oxide ceramics high-fracture toughness.
The advantage of the inventive method is:
1) initial feed adopts industrial gibbsite mineral or boehmite, low, the aboundresources of raw materials cost.
2) introducing of crystal seed is by α-Al in mechanical milling process 2O 3Wearing and tearing on abrading-ball surface when abrading-ball and former abrasive lapping and introducing, thereby technology is simple, is convenient to control.
3) under the condition that crystal seed exists, gibbsite mineral or boehmite can change Al into fully at 1100~1200 ℃ 2O 3Crystalline phase, phase inversion temperature is lower.
4) behind the hot pressed sintering, alumina ceramic material has higher fracture toughness property (61~7.1 MPam simultaneously 1/2) and higher intensity (610~660MPa).
