DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0045] The present invention provides a method for preparing titanium-doped and high-water single-crystal coulsonite under a high-temperature and high-pressure condition, which specifically comprises:
[0046] Solid transparent-semitransparent trigonal siderite crystals (purity > 99.99%), solid bis(2,4-pentanedionato)vanadium(TV) oxide powder (purity > 99.99%), liquid titantum(IV) isopropoxide (purity > 99.99%), solid oxalic acid powder (purity > 99.99%), solid a-phase goethite powder (purity > 99%), the solid titanium hydroxide powder (purity > 99%) and liquid dilute nitric acid (concentration: 10%) are used as starting materials.
[0047] Step 1: a chemical fume hood is opened, a volumetric flask with a standard volume of 100 ml is selected to accurately measure out 60 ml of dilute nitric acid with the concentration of 10%, a glass pipette is placed in a 500 ml beaker with a notch, and the liquid diluted nitric acid is completely transferred into the beaker carefully through the pipette, wherein due to the fact that the beaker with the notch will not be completely sealed after the beaker is covered with watch-glass, the beaker with the notch is used as a reaction container to ensure that generated gas can be easily volatilized in the fume hood.
[0048] Step 2: 5.0 g of high-purity transparent-semitransparent trigonal siderite 7 crystals are accurately weighed out with a 10 ug high-precision analytical balance, and are
LU503665 carefully added into the beaker containing the dilute nitric acid solution with the concentration of 10%, and a magnetic stirring rotor is put in the beaker.
[0049] Step 3: a mouth of the beaker containing the dilute nitric acid solution with the trigonal siderite crystals is covered with watch-glass, and then the beaker is placed on a high-temperature magnetic stirring heater coil in the fume hood; in order to fully dissolve the starting material, namely the solid siderite crystals, in the dilute nitric acid solution and make the solid siderite crystals undergo hydrolysis reaction and acidification reaction, the reaction temperature is normal temperature, the rotational speed is 700 rpm, and the reaction time is 72 hrs.
[0050] Step 4: 22.8874 g of high-purity bis(2,4-pentanedionato)vanadium(IV) oxide powder and 200 ml of high-purity liquid titanium(IV) isopropoxide are accurately weighed out with the high-precision analytical balance according to coulsonite Fe(V,
Ti)2O4 stoichiometry, and are carefully added to the dilute nitric acid solution containing the siderite crystals.
[0051] Step 5: the beaker containing the dilute nitric acid solution with the solid siderite crystals, the solid bis(2,4-pentanedionato)vanadium(IV) oxide powder and the liquid titanium(IV) isopropoxide is covered with watch-glass to ensure that gas generated during reaction is volatilized via the notch of the beaker, and the starting material, namely the dilute nitric acid solution, in the beaker is prevented from splashing during the high-speed stirring process, which may otherwise raise a risk and compromise the synthesis accuracy of single-crystal coulsonite.
[0052] Step 6: the beaker containing the sealed dilute nitric acid solution and magnetic stirring rotor is placed on the high-temperature magnetic stirring heater coil in the fume hood, stirring is performed at normal temperature and 800 rpm for 48 hrs to enable the starting materials, namely the solid siderite crystals, the solid 8 bis(2,4-pentanedionato)vanadium(I'V) oxide powder and the liquid titanium(I'V)
LU503665 isopropoxide, to be completely dissolved in the dilute nitric acid solution without any residues, and volatile substances such as NH;+H:0, CHa, CoH, CO», and Hz can be volatilized more easily in the fume hood.
[0053] Step 7: 2 g of high-purity solid oxalic acid powder is accurately weighed out with the high-precision analytical balance, and is added to the diluted nitric acid solution containing the solid siderite crystals, the solid bis(2,4-pentanedionato)vanadium(IV) oxide powder and the liquid titanium(IV) isopropoxide, as an important metal-chelator.
[0054] Step 8: the beaker containing the mixed solution is placed on the high-temperature magnetic stirring heater coil in the fume hood again, and then the beaker is covered with the watch-glass; the parameters of the high-temperature magnetic stirring heater coil are set to 80 °C and 1000 rpm for stirring for 36 hrs to enable all the starting materials to form uniform colloidal sol under the combined action of dilute nitric acid and oxalic acid.
[0055] Step 9: the watch-glass is removed from the beaker, and the temperature of the high-temperature magnetic stirring heater coil is increased to 110 °C until the mixed solution in the beaker is completely desiccated.
[0056] Step 10: the magnetic stirring rotor is taken out of the beaker on the high-temperature magnetic stirring heater coil, all sample powder adhering to the surface of the magnetic stirring rotor is stripped into the beaker, and all mixed powder is carefully taken out of the beaker with a spoon and is placed in a graphite crucible.
[0057] Step 11: the temperature of the graphite crucible containing the mixed powder is increased to 1150 °C at a low heating rate of 300 °C/h by means of a muffle furnace which is at normal pressure and high temperature, and the graphite crucible is maintained at this temperature for 5 hrs. The high-temperature calcination rate is low, and the temperature maintaining time is long. 9
[0058] Step 12: the mixed powder in the graphite crucible in the muffle furnace is
LU503665 cooled to room temperature at a rate of 200 °C/h. Compared with the heating rate, a relatively low cooling rate is more beneficial to the formation of cellular loose sample powder. The mixed powder is taken out carefully.
[0059] Step 13: the cellular loose coulsonite sample powder is fully ground in a super-hard thickened corundum mortar for 1 h to obtain a fine-grained and uniform experimental powder sample.
[0060] Step 14: the fine-grained and uniform coulsonite powder sample is cold-pressed into three ® 10.0 mm * 3.0 mm sample discs by a high-precision tungsten carbide grinding tool (size: ® 10.0 mm * 10.0 mm) of a stainless steel press; the three sample discs are stacked from bottom to top and are then carefully placed at the bottom of the graphite crucible.
[0061] Step 15: two circular holes with a diameter of 1.0 mm are symmetrically drilled in the wall of the graphite crucible, in which the three sample discs are stacked, by means of a high-speed electric drill. A 0.5 mm platinum-rhodium alloy wire is made to penetrate through the two symmetrical 1.0 mm circular holes in the wall of the graphite crucible carefully to hang the graphite crucible in the middle of a high-temperature oxygen atmosphere furnace. Two ends of the platinum-rhodium alloy wire penetrating through the graphite crucible are connected and fixed to a vertical four-hole aluminum tube with a bore diameter of 0.6 mm, an outer diameter of 5.0 mm and a length of 40 mm. An upper end of the four-hole aluminum tube is fixed to the middle of a circular cover capable of being pushed into and pulled out of a furnace body at any time.
[0062] Step 16: a stainless steel container containing 3 L of secondary deionized pure cold water is placed on one side of the high-temperature oxygen atmosphere furnace in advance.
[0063] Step 17: the top of the furnace body of the high-temperature oxygen atmosphere furnace is connected to an argon inert gas cylinder and a proportion-adjustable
LU503665 carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide cylinder, the quantity of gas injected into a sample chamber is controlled through a barometer, and during the high-temperature calcination process, each gas can be switched and regulated in time through a valve.
[0064] Step 18: an argon inert gas valve is opened, and a pointer button controlled by the gas barometer is rotated to continuously inject argon for 30 min.
[0065] Step 19: when the temperature in the furnace body reaches 800 °C, a carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide gas control valve is switched quickly and the pointer button controlled by the gas barometer is rotated to enable the volume ratio of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in the oxygen atmosphere furnace to reach 4:1.
[0066] Step 20: when a mixed gas flow of the carbon monoxide and the carbon dioxide with the volume ratio of 4:1 in the sample chamber is stabilized, which takes about 3-5 min, the temperature of the sample chamber in the furnace body is increased to 1600 °C at arate of 200 °C/h to perform constant-temperature calcination for 15 min to melt the sample into glassy-state coulsonite.
[0067] Step 21: after the sample is calcinated at 1600 °C for 15 min, the graphite crucible containing the sample, the four-hole aluminum oxide tube and the circular cover on the furnace body are pulled out of the furnace body and then directly immersed in the stainless steel container containing 3L of secondary deionized pure cold water to quickly quench the sample into coulsonite glass.
[0068] Step 22: the coulsonite glass is taken out of the graphite crucible carefully, and is fully ground into fine-grained and uniform-composition sample powder in the corundum mortar. The glassy-state coulsonite powder is dried in a vacuum drying oven at 200 °C for 12 hrs.
[0069] Step 23: the coulsonite glass powder is cold-pressed on a cold isostatic press by a high-precision ® 4.0 mm (diameter) * 10.0 mm tungsten carbide grinding tool to 11 obtain a ® 4.0 mm (diameter) * 4.0 mm (height) cylindrical coulsonite sample.
LU503665
[0070] To obtain high-water coulsonite, the a-phase goethite powder (molecular formula: FeOOH) and the titanium hydroxide powder (molecular formula: Ti(OH)4), the weight ratio of which is 4:1, are used as a water source. The mixture of a-phase goethite and titanium hydroxide is used as the water source mainly for the following reasons: first, the a-phase goethite and the titanium hydroxide are both typical hydrous substances and have low dehydration temperature, some researchers believe that the high-purity a-phase goethite undergoes dehydration reaction at 270 °C to directly produce hematite and release a large amount of water at the same time, the other researchers hold that the a-phase goethite undergoes dehydration reaction at 238 °C to produce super-structural hematite [molecular formula: Fec-x3)(OH)xO(-x] and the super-structural hematite undergoes dehydration reaction at 800 °C to produce hematite and release a large amount of water at the same time, the high-purity titanium hydroxide, as a typical hydrous white powdery substance containing titanium, is an acid soluble and alkali-soluble amphoteric oxide, can be used as a mordant and an acetylene polymerization catalyst, and undergoes dehydration reaction to produce rutile (TiO) and release a large amount of water at the same time when the temperature is over 650 °C, and all these dehydration temperatures are within a relatively low temperature interval during the process of preparing titanium-doped single-crystal coulsonite under a high-temperature and high-pressure condition, which fully guarantees that the titanium-doped single-crystal coulsonite is in a water environment long enough, thus ensuring sufficient diffusion of lattice water of the sample and the formation of lattice sites; second, the a-phase goethite and titanium hydroxide are both ferrum-rich and titanium-rich substances, so the ferrum activity and the titanium activity of main lattice sites can be controlled in the process of preparing titanium-doped and high-water single-crystal coulsonite in a sample cavity; and finally, final products of thea-phase goethite and titanium hydroxide with the weight ratio of 4:1, which are used 12 for providing the water source and disposed at two ends of the sample, are oxides such as
LU503665 hematite and rutile, which will not chemically react with the sample, thus ensuring the purity of a prepared titanium-doped and high-water single-crystal coulsonite sample. In addition, by adjusting the weight ratio of the a-phase goethite and titanium hydroxide for providing the water source and the height of the corresponding water-source discs, the water content of the titanium-doped and high-water single-crystal coulsonite sample can be adjusted.
[0071] Step 24: the a-phase goethite powder and the titanium hydroxide powder are cold-pressed on a cold isostatic press by a high-precision ® 4.0 mm (diameter) * 10.0 mm tungsten carbide grinding tool according to the weight ratio of 4:1 to obtain two ® 4.0 mm (diameter) * 0.1 mm (height) water-sourced discs.
[0072] Step 25: the cylindrical coulsonite sample (size: ® 4.0 mm (diameter) * 4.0 mm (height)) and the two water-sourced discs (size: ® 4.0 mm (diameter) * 0.1 (height)) are sequentially sealed in a double-layer experimental sample chamber with an inner tube being a graphite tube (size: ® 4.4 mm (outer diameter) * 4.4 mm (height), 0.2 mm (wall thickness)) and an outer tube being a gold-palladium alloy tube (size: ® 4.6 mm (outer diameter) * 4.6 mm (height), 0.1 mm (wall thickness)). In the present invention, the titanium-doped singe-crystal coulsonite sample is placed in the middle of the inner graphite tube, the two water-sourced discs prepared from the a-phase goethite and the titanium hydroxide with the weight ratio of 4:1 are placed at two symmetrical ends of the inner graphite tube close to the sample.
[0073] Step 26: coulsonite is one of the important ferrum-rich and vanadium-rich oxide minerals in the lower crust and upper mantle of the earth and other terrestrial planets; in order to truly simulate the growth environment of coulsonite deep in the lower crust of the earth and other terrestrial planets and invert the temperature and pressure conditions for stable existence of the coulsonite phase, the double-layer sample chamber composed of 13 the graphite tube and the gold-palladium alloy tube is placed in a typical Kawai-1000t 6-8
