Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when sintering a ceramic molded body, sintering aids such as silica, alumina, and yttria have been blended to improve sinterability. In order to mix this sintering aid into the ceramic powder, it is usually dispersed by wet mixing using a ball mill or the like. but,
Metal compounds that serve as sintering aids often have large particle sizes and are tightly aggregated, so it is necessary to thoroughly crush them. Moreover, the specific gravity of the main raw material ceramic powder and sintering aid is
Particle sizes etc. often differ, making it difficult to uniformly disperse the sintering aid into ceramics. In addition, reaggregation of the sintering aid may occur in the slurry or during drying after the mixed powder, resulting in uneven distribution of the sintering aid. When molded and sintered using such a mixed powder, unevenly distributed sintering aids melt during the sintering process, and pores are generated in the sintered body. As a result, there is a problem that the strength of the sintered body cannot be sufficiently developed.

There is a disclosure (Unexamined Japanese Patent Publication No. 1986-

In addition, for the purpose of forming a uniform ceramic powder, agar is added to a solution containing multiple predetermined metals to form a gel, and multiple metals are precipitated at once, thereby synthesizing a mixed powder of raw materials for oxide superconductors.

。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the method of dispersing the alkoxide of the metal element constituting the sintering aid into ceramic powder using the sol-gel method, the metal element of the sintering aid adheres to the surface of the ceramic powder. However, the adhering sintering aid is likely to fall off the ceramic surface due to physical contact between the powders during subsequent steps such as injection molding processing. Further, since the metal alkoxide powder is usually a fine powder, it tends to aggregate and become unevenly distributed, and the physical properties of the sintered body are not significantly improved.

This method requires the metal component to be in solution and cannot be applied to all ceramics. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and provides a ceramic powder with excellent sinterability by coating the surface of ceramic powder with a polymer film containing a metal compound of a metal element constituting a sintering aid. With the goal.

らなる。[Means for Solving the Problems] The method of coating ceramic powder with a sintering aid of the present invention is to coat the ceramic powder with a hydrophilic polymer containing a metal alkoxide of a metal element constituting the sintering aid to make it hydrophilic. a hydrophilic coating step for forming a hydrophilic polymer layer, a hydrolysis step for hydrolyzing a metal alkoxide contained in the hydrophilic polymer layer in the hydrophilic polymer layer, and a hydrophilic coating step for forming a hydrophilic polymer layer containing the hydrophilic metal compound. It consists of a drying step of drying the polymer layer to form a composite ceramic powder.

膜として被覆されたセラミックス粉末が得られる。In this method, first, in a coating step, ceramic powder is coated with a hydrophilic polymer containing a metal alkoxide of a metal element constituting a sintering aid. In this case, the surface of the ceramic powder may first be coated with a hydrophilic polymer, and then the hydrophilic polymer may be impregnated with a metal alkoxide, or it may be directly coated with a hydrophilic polymer containing a metal alkoxide. In the hydrolysis step, the hydrophilic polymer is brought into contact with water, gelled, and heated to hydrolyze the metal alkoxide within the polymer layer to form a metal compound. Since the polymer coating the ceramic is hydrophilic, it contains sufficient water and hydrolysis progresses within the gel film. Since the hydrophilic polymer forms a gel film, the generated metal compound can be retained in the polymer layer while being surrounded by gel. Therefore, agglomeration of metal compounds can also be prevented. In the drying step, water is removed from the hydrophilic polymer gel layer to obtain ceramic powder coated with a polymer layer containing a metal compound as a film.

優れた成形体となる。[0008] Since the obtained ceramic powder has a metal compound which acts as a sintering aid retained in the polymer film, it does not fall off from the surface even during molding or other treatments. Therefore, the sintering aid is uniformly distributed in the ceramic powder. This polymer film is then removed during degreasing or sintering. Therefore, the sintering aid is uniformly dispersed on the surface of the raw ceramic material, resulting in a molded body with excellent sinterability.

防止できる。[Operation] According to the coating method of the present invention, a coating layer of a hydrophilic polymer containing a metal alkoxide constituting a sintering aid is formed on the surface of a ceramic powder, and the coating layer is gelled with water. Hydrolyze the metal alkoxide in the layer. The metal compound formed by this hydrolysis is retained in the gel-like polymer layer. Therefore, even if this polymer layer is dried, it remains as it is, so as long as the ceramic surface is coated with the polymer, the metal compound as a sintering aid will also be present and will not fall off during injection molding or the like. Furthermore, since it exists within the gel of the polymer membrane, it does not aggregate. Therefore, it is possible to maintain a uniformly dispersed state of the metal compound in the ceramic powder,
Problems caused by uneven distribution of the sintering aid during the sintering process can be prevented.

The strength was improved by about 30% compared to the strength of 700 MPa when sintered with a sintering aid mixed in the conventional method. Further, the structure of the sintered body was observed using an optical microscope, and it was found to be in good condition with no pores larger than 10 μm. (Example 2) Cast molding was performed using a slip in which the composite ceramic powder obtained in Example 1 was dispersed in water, and a molded body was sintered. The obtained sintered body exhibited good physical properties as in Example 1. (Example 3) (Coating process) Silicon nitride powder was added to an aqueous solution containing 3% by weight agar at 80°C, mixed to a concentration of 20% by weight, and dried with a spray dryer to coat with a hydrophilic polymer. It was made into a coated ceramic powder.

複合セラミックス粉末とした。The above ceramic powder was added to water to gel the hydrophilic polymer. An aqueous solution containing 9% by weight each of yttrium methoxide [Y(OCH3)3] and aluminum methoxide [Al(OCH3)3] was added to this gelled product, and the metal alkoxide was attached or permeated into the gel by stirring and mixing. . (Hydrolysis step) The ceramic coated with the polymer gel containing the metal alkoxide and water was heated to 60° C. to hydrolyze the metal alkoxide in the gel. (Drying process) Ceramics covered with the gel obtained in the hydrolysis process are heated to 30°C under reduced pressure to remove water in the gel layer and dried to form a composite coated with a metal compound for sintering aid. It was made into ceramic powder.

防止することができる。According to this coating method, the sintering aid can be uniformly coated on the ceramic powder, so that even if a small amount is added, the sintering property is good and the high-temperature strength is improved. Furthermore, since the sintering aid is uniformly retained in the gel of the polymer layer, it is possible to prevent the sintering aid from agglomerating due to drying.
