Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Pulvermischungen, aus denen unter sogenannter Reaktionsbindung von keramischem und metallischem Ausgangspulver ein Granulat hergestellt wird, aus dem durch Formgebung und thermische Behandlung keramische Sinterprodukte, beispielsweise technische Keramik, erzeugt werden. The invention relates to a method for producing powder mixtures from which with so-called reaction bonding of ceramic and metallic starting powder Granules are made from which by shaping and thermal treatment ceramic sintered products, for example technical ceramics, are produced.
Bekannt ist die Herstellung von schwindungsreduzierten, aluminiumoxidhaltigen Keramiken auf Grundlage des sogenannten RBAO-Verfahrens (Reaktionsbinden von Aluminiumoxid, DE 43 02 721 A1). Dabei werden ein keramisches Pulver (Aluminiumoxid) und metallische Zusätze, wie Aluminium, vermischt sowie gemeinsam vermahlen und homogenisiert. Dieser sehr intensive und technologisch aufwendige Mahl- und Homogenisierprozess mit einem hohen Energieeintrag wird in einem Attritor durchgeführt und liefert eine Pulvermischung, die nach Trocknung und Verpressung zu einem sogenannten Grünkörper geeignet ist, in der folgenden Wärmebehandlung mit speziellem Zeit-/Temperaturregime letztlich zu einem möglichst homogenen Gefüge zu sintern. Dabei wird das metallische Aluminium unter Volumenzunahme von 28% zu Aluminiumoxid oxidiert. Entsprechend dieser Volumenausdehnung wird der herstellungsbedingten Schwindung des entstehenden Keramikkörpers entgegengewirkt. Schwindungsreduzierung ist für eine endkonturnahe Fertigung und zur Eigenspannungsminimierung in der Keramik von Vorteil. Im Hinblick auf die gewünschte Herstellung der Sinterkörper mit homogener Materialbeschaffenheit werden sowohl ein möglichst homogener Grünkörper vor dem Sinterprozess als auch eine weitgehend vollständige Oxidation des Aluminiums bei der Sinterung angestrebt. It is known to produce shrinkage-reduced aluminum oxide-containing ones Ceramics based on the so-called RBAO process (reaction binding of Aluminum oxide, DE 43 02 721 A1). This will be a ceramic powder (Aluminum oxide) and metallic additives, such as aluminum, mixed and ground together and homogenized. This very intensive and technologically complex grinding and Homogenization process with a high energy input is carried out in an attritor and delivers a powder mixture, which after drying and pressing into a so-called Green body is suitable in the following heat treatment with special Ultimately, to sinter the time / temperature regime to the most homogeneous possible structure. It will Metallic aluminum oxidized to aluminum oxide with an increase in volume of 28%. According to this volume expansion, the manufacturing-related shrinkage of the created ceramic body counteracted. Shrinkage reduction is for one Production close to the final contour and advantageous for minimizing residual stress in the ceramic. With regard to the desired production of the sintered body with homogeneous Material properties are both a green body as homogeneous as possible before Sintering process as well as a largely complete oxidation of the aluminum Sintering sought.
Dem Mahl- und Homogenisierungsprozess im Attritor an sich sowie der Beschaffenheit der entstehenden Pulvermischung kommt dabei eine entscheidende Bedeutung zu hinsichtlich der verfahrensspezifischen Wirkung des besagten RBAO-Verfahrens. Um bei der Aufbereitung der Pulvermischung im Attritor die Gefahr einer Aluminiumhydroxidbildung zu verringern, wird der Mahl- und Homogenisierungsprozess in einer nichtwässrigen Flüssigkeit (Ethanol, Azeton, Isopropanol) durchgeführt. Die Bildung von Aluminiumhydroxid würde beim Reaktionsbinden von Aluminiumoxid im Sinterprozess einer vollständigen Oxidation des Aluminiums entgegenwirken. The grinding and homogenization process in the attritor itself and the quality the resulting powder mixture is of crucial importance with regard to the process-specific effect of said RBAO process. To at the preparation of the powder mixture in the attritor the risk of To reduce aluminum hydroxide formation, the grinding and homogenization process in one non-aqueous liquid (ethanol, acetone, isopropanol). The formation of Aluminum hydroxide would be used in the reaction binding of aluminum oxide in the sintering process counteract a complete oxidation of the aluminum.
Darüber hinaus besteht die Gefahr, dass die Oxidierbarkeit des Metallpulvers durch unerwünschte Reaktionen mit organischen Zusätzen, wie Bindemitteln, Dispergatoren und Weichmachern, eingeschränkt wird. Eigene Untersuchungen von handelsüblichen Aluminiumpulvern haben hier sehr unterschiedliche Reaktionswirkungen gezeigt. In addition, there is a risk that the oxidizability of the metal powder undesirable reactions with organic additives such as binders, dispersants and Plasticizers, is restricted. Own investigations of commercially available Aluminum powders have shown very different reaction effects here.
Eine unvollständige Oxidation des Metallpulvers bei der Reaktionsbindung schränkt aber die Homogenität des entstehenden Sinterkörpers ein und beeinflusst nicht zuletzt dessen Materialbeschaffenheit, wie insbesondere Dichte, Porosität und damit Festigkeitseigenschaften. Teilchen oder Agglomerate, die nach der Oxidations- und Sinterbehandlung in unerwünschter Weise noch metallisch vorliegen, tragen auch nicht zur Schwindungsreduzierung bei. However, incomplete oxidation of the metal powder in the reaction binding limits the homogeneity of the resulting sintered body and last but not least influences it Material properties, such as density, porosity and so on Strength properties. Particles or agglomerates, which after the oxidation and sintering treatment in are still present in an undesirable manner, also do not contribute Shrinkage reduction at.
Der notwendige Energieaufwand für die Oxidation ist stark partikelgrößenabhängig und steigt mit zunehmender Partikelgröße. Hingegen ist zwar mit kleineren Partikeldurchmessern der Vorteil einer besseren Oxidierbarkeit des Aluminiums bei geringerem Energieaufwand gegeben;, jedoch nimmt bei der Reaktionsbindung, wie Untersuchungen zeigen, das Potential der Volumenzunahme durch Oxidation mit Verringerung der Partikelgröße ab, da nachteiliger Weise der Voroxidationsanteil steigt. Der Voroxidationsanteil ist das Verhältnis der sich unter normalen, sauerstoffhaltigen Umgebungsbedingungen selbstständig bildenden Oxidschicht und dem Gesamtvolumen des Teilchens. Wenngleich eine Verwendung von Pulvern kleinerer Partikelgröße mit dem besagten, verringerten Aufwand zur Aufbereitung der Pulvermischung begleitet sein würde, wären jedoch andererseits die Herstellung der Sinterkörper und insbesondere auch der durch das RBAO-Verfahren beabsichtigte Effekt der Schwindungsreduzierung mit geringerer Partikelgröße beeinträchtigt. Offensichtlich wurden in der Fachwelt als Kompromiss die günstigsten Voraussetzungen gefunden, indem Aluminiumpulver mit einer Korngrößenverteilung zwischen 20 µm und 100 µm verwendet und gemeinsam mit dem Aluminiumoxid sowie den organischen Zusatzstoffen im Attritor zu einer Korngröße von 1 µm aufbereitet wird, obwohl erstens ein hoher technologischer und Energieaufwand erforderlich sind und infolge erhöhter Reibung die Temperaturen immerhin zu einer 10- bis 40%-igen Voroxidation des Aluminiums führen, durch welche sich, wie erwähnt, das Potential der Pulvermischung zur Schwindungsreduzierung verringert. The energy required for the oxidation is strongly dependent on the particle size and increases with increasing particle size. However, with smaller ones Particle diameters the advantage of better oxidizability of the aluminum with less Given energy expenditure, but increases in reaction binding, such as studies show the potential of volume increase by oxidation with reduction of Particle size decreases because the pre-oxidation proportion increases. The Preoxidation fraction is the ratio of that among normal, oxygenated ones Ambient conditions independently forming oxide layer and the total volume of the particle. Although using smaller particle size powders with said reduced effort to prepare the powder mixture would be accompanied however, on the other hand, the production of the sintered body and in particular also by RBAO process intended to reduce shrinkage effect with less Particle size affected. Obviously, in the professional world, these were compromises most favorable conditions found by using aluminum powder with a Grain size distribution between 20 microns and 100 microns used and together with the Aluminum oxide and the organic additives in the attritor to a grain size of 1 µm is processed, although firstly a high level of technological and energy expenditure are necessary and due to increased friction the temperatures are at least 10 to 40% pre-oxidation of the aluminum, which, as mentioned, leads to the Potential of the powder mixture to reduce shrinkage reduced.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, in einem vergleichsweise kosten- und energiesparenden Verfahren Pulvermischungen herzustellen, aus denen unter Anwendung des an sich bekannten Reaktionsbindens möglichst homogene und schwindungsarme Sinterkeramiken geschaffen werden können. The invention has for its object in a comparatively cost and energy-saving process to produce powder mixtures from which using the known reaction bandage as homogeneous and low-shrinkage as possible Sintered ceramics can be created.
Erfindungsgemäß werden in separaten Mischungsansätzen mit Lösungsmittel und Dispergator das oder die keramischen Pulver sowie das oder die metallischen Pulver jeweils getrennt deagglomeriert und homogenisiert, wobei in dem einen Mischungsansatz metallisches Pulver, vorzugsweise Aluminium, in nanodisperser Form und zum Zweck einer vollständigen Oxidierbarkeit mit einer maximalen Partikelgröße von kleiner als 5-10 µm, vorzugsweise 0,5-1 µm, sowie passivierten Oxidschicht bei Raumtemperatur verwendet wird. Die beiden getrennt deagglomerierten und homogenisierten Mischungsansätze der keramischen und metallischen Pulver werden vereinigt und danach durch Zugabe der organischen Zusatzstoffe zur homogenen Mischung für die Granulatbildung als Ausgangstoff für die Sinterkeramik aufgearbeitet. According to the invention in separate mixtures with solvent and Disperser the ceramic powder or powder as well as the metallic powder each separately deagglomerated and homogenized, with one mixture metallic powder, preferably aluminum, in nanodisperse form and for the purpose complete oxidizability with a maximum particle size of less than 5-10 µm, preferably 0.5-1 µm, and passivated oxide layer at room temperature is used. The two separately deagglomerated and homogenized Mixtures of the ceramic and metallic powders are combined and then by Add the organic additives to the homogeneous mixture for the formation of granules as Refurbished raw material for sintered ceramics.
Es wurde gefunden, dass unter Verwendung des metallischen Pulvers mit der besagten Materialbeschaffenheit und keiner gemeinsamen, sondern zunächst getrennten Deagglomerierung von keramischen und metallischen Pulvern nach Vereinigung der separat vorbereiteten Mischungsansätze ohne aufwendige Mahlprozesse eine spezielle Pulvermischung entsteht, die sich homogen und ohne unerwünschte Nebenreaktionen mit organischen Zusatzstoffen, wie Bindemittel und Weichmacher, weiter vermischen lässt zu einer in Art und Zusammensetzung abgestimmten und sehr homogenen Substanzmischung für die Erzeugung eines Granulats, aus dem durch Formgebung ein homogener Grünkörper für den Sinterprozess verpresst werden kann. Aufwendige Attritor-Bearbeitungen zur Aufbereitung der Pulvermischungen, welche neben dem Energie- und Kostenaspekt bisher auch mit Problemen einer unerwünschten Voroxidation des Metalls begleitet waren, sind nicht erforderlich; eine Homogenisierung in einer Kugelmühle genügt. It was found that using the metallic powder with said Material quality and no common, but initially separate Deagglomeration of ceramic and metallic powders after combining them separately prepared mix approaches without complex milling processes a special one Powder mixture is created which is homogeneous and without any undesirable side reactions organic additives, such as binders and plasticizers, can be mixed further a very homogeneous mixture of substances coordinated in type and composition for the production of granules, from which a homogeneous green body is formed can be pressed for the sintering process. Elaborate attritor processing for Preparation of the powder mixtures, which apart from the energy and cost aspects so far were also accompanied with problems of unwanted pre-oxidation of the metal not mandatory; homogenization in a ball mill is sufficient.
Durch die Vermeidung von Voroxidationen bei der Pulveraufbereitung wird die im Sinterprozess mit der Reaktionsbindung angestrebte Volumenzunahme nicht merklich beeinträchtigt, was die Erzeugung schwindungsärmerer und damit fertigungspräziser Sinterkeramiken ermöglicht. By avoiding pre-oxidation during powder preparation, the im Sintering process with the reaction binding not desired increase in volume impaired, which the production of lower shrinkage and thus more precise Sintered ceramics enables.
Bei der Sinterung erfolgt eine vollständige Oxidation der metallischen Bestandteile, so dass aus dem granulatverpressten Grünkörper auch ein sehr homogener Sinterkörper ohne sonstige Beeinträchtigung der Materialeigenschaften, wie Dichte und Porosität, entsteht. A complete oxidation of the metallic components takes place during sintering, see above that from the granule-pressed green body also a very homogeneous sintered body without other impairment of the material properties, such as density and porosity, arises.

Im Ergebnis der Pulveraufbereitung liegt eine homogene Pulvermischung aus Aluminium, Aluminiumoxid und organischen Zusätzen vor, welche z. B. durch Verpressen zu einem homogenen Grünkörper für einen Sintervorgang geformt werden kann. Auf Grund des Aluminiumanteils weist das Granulat eine hohe Verpressbarkeit (ca. 74% TD bei 400 MPa) und die daraus herstellbaren Grünkörper eine hohe, sogenannte Grünfestigkeit auf. Die Partikelgröße des Aluminiumpulvers und deren homogene Verteilung ermöglichen einen vollständigen Reaktionsbindeprozess (100%-ige Oxidation des Aluminiums, Sinterungsfähigkeit des gesamten Aluminiumoxids). Die vollständige Oxidierbarkeit wurde an der Pulvermischung mit thermischer Analyse (DTA/TG) sowie an gepressten Probekörpern (∅ 10 mm, Höhe 4-10 mm) mit vorliegendem Massezuwachs und Berechnung des Aluminiumumsatzes nachgewiesen sowie mit Rasterelektronenmikroskopie, Elektronenstrahlmikroanalyse und Phasenanalyse mit dem Röntgendifftaktomer bestätigt. Die daraus hergestellten Sinterprodukte zeigten eine vollständige Oxidation der metallischen Pulverbestandteile, homogene Gefüge mit Korngrößen von 0,5-5 µm, Enddichten von 92-96% TD, Härte HV 1 14-15 GPa, Bruchzähigkeiten 3-4,5 MPa.m1/2 und Elastizitätsmoduli von 260-300 GPa. Die Schwindungsreduzierung infolge Aluminiumoxidation betrug ca. 18%. The result of the powder preparation is a homogeneous powder mixture of aluminum, aluminum oxide and organic additives, which, for. B. can be formed by pressing into a homogeneous green body for a sintering process. Due to the aluminum content, the granulate has a high compressibility (approx. 74% TD at 400 MPa) and the green bodies that can be produced from it have a high, so-called green strength. The particle size of the aluminum powder and its homogeneous distribution enable a complete reaction binding process (100% oxidation of the aluminum, sintering ability of the entire aluminum oxide). The complete oxidizability was verified on the powder mixture with thermal analysis (DTA / TG) as well as on pressed test specimens (∅ 10 mm, height 4-10 mm) with the present increase in mass and calculation of the aluminum conversion as well as confirmed with scanning electron microscopy, electron beam microanalysis and phase analysis with the X-ray diffractomer. The sintered products produced from this showed complete oxidation of the metallic powder components, homogeneous structure with grain sizes of 0.5-5 µm, final densities of 92-96% TD, hardness HV 1 14-15 GPa, fracture toughness 3-4.5 MPa.m 1 / 2 and elastic moduli from 260-300 GPa. The shrinkage reduction due to aluminum oxidation was approx. 18%.
