Definitions
- the invention relates to a crucible with polygonal shape and its method of preparation.
- silica crucibles To date, a number of industrial applications, particularly in the field of semiconductors, solar energy (photovoltaics), or for the calcination of alumina powders, phosphorescent powders or precious metals, use silica crucibles. In particular, two methods of manufacturing these crucibles are distinguished: that passing through the melting of the silica and that passing through the production of a slip followed by sintering (so-called "slip cast” process).
- the "slipcast” crucibles have the disadvantage of being slightly porous on the surface. It is possible to glaze this surface with the flame or the electric arc but residual microbubbles remain just below the icy surface ("glazed surface" in English). In addition, frosting is a relatively expensive manual operation. This technique makes it possible to obtain rather simply crucibles of square, round or rectangular shapes.
- the dense icy surface is very thin and does not exceed 0.5 mm thick.
- JP58088129 teaches a method of manufacturing a square crucible by arc melting. According to this method, no aspiration is performed. In the absence of suction, a high porosity is necessarily created in the walls of the crucible, so that obtaining a density of at least 2.15 to a depth of at least 1.5 mm to from inside the crucible is impossible.
- the invention relates to an arc-shaped fused polygon-shaped opening crucible.
- the crucible has a polygonal opening, that is to say at least 3 sides (or 4 or 5 or 6 sides), generally 4 sides, including square, rectangular, or diamond, and its manufacturing process involving a arc fusion.
- the polygon shape particularly regular, makes it easy to juxtapose a multiplicity of crucibles so as to occupy a maximum of surface. Square and rectangular shapes are preferred. We do not would fall outside the scope of this application if the sides of the polygon are slightly rounded. Similarly, it would not be beyond the scope of this application if the corners of the polygon are slightly rounded.
- angles of the polygon (angles between two adjacent side walls at the upper edge of the crucible) have a radius of curvature less than 25 mm at the upper edge of the final crucible for the case where the polygon is four-sided and is square or rectangular.
- the crucible according to the invention has a characteristic aspect of using an electric arc to manufacture it.
- the use of the electric arc leads to a high density of the silica on a deep depth when one starts from inside the crucible.
- the theoretical density of the fused silica is 2.2 g / cm 3 and it is in practice very difficult to approach this value by a method other than fusion.
- the use of the electric arc to melt the entire crucible makes it possible to obtain a density of at least 2.15 g / m 3 over a depth of at least 1.5 mm, or even from minus 2 mm from the inside of the crucible (side walls and crucible bottom).
- the same electric arc method is used as to make a circular opening crucible, except that a sufficient suction intensity is used to maintain the shape given to the powder without it being necessary or even useful to rotate.
- This suction is also at the origin of the high density to a depth of at least 1.5 mm, or even at least 2 mm from the inside of the crucible. Indeed, the suction eliminates gas that can no longer be in the form of bubbles in the crucible.
- the suction also serves to counteract the blast of the plasma, which tends to move the powder formed into the mold, especially at the bottom.
- a mold with a very high permeability is preferably used, which makes it possible to press the powder against the walls by suction through the mold in order to prevent the blast of the electric arc from deforming the preform of silica powder.
- the mold can be provided with a multiplicity of orifices distributed on all the walls (side walls as well as the bottom). The rotation of the mold during the fusion is not excluded but is not essential and can in any case be of low speed.
- the suction intensity must be sufficient for the gases flowing through the shaped powder to be at least 0.15 m / second and preferably at least 0.2 m / second. s and even at least 0.3 m / s, at least when the silica begins to melt. So we aspire according to this speed at the latest at the moment the electric arc begins to operate in the internal volume of the future crucible (powder shaped at this stage, or "preform"). It has been observed that this suction speed provides a maintenance of the powder in its crucible form without it being necessary to exert a rotation along a vertical or substantially vertical axis as is usually done in the case of circular opening.
- the speed of the gases flowing through the powder can be measured on the surface of the preform by a hot wire anemometer ("Hot Wire Anemometer" in English) such as the TESTO 425 sold by the company TESTO.
- a hot wire anemometer such as the TESTO 425 sold by the company TESTO.
- This aspiration through the preform is created at the beginning of fusion of the silica since a sealed silica skin is formed quickly on the inside of the preform, which closes the preform and stops the possibility of aspiration.
- the suction is conducted at least until the formation of the sealed silica skin on the inner face of the preform.
- the invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a crucible comprising
- a rotation preferably moderate, which is preferably less than 200 revolutions per minute (RPM) and more preferably less than 150 RPM and even more preferably even less than 100 RPM and even lower at 50 RPM, or even zero.
- RPM revolutions per minute
- the rotation tends to give a parabolic shape to the contents of the mold, which is not conducive to the good maintenance of a polygonal shape, especially in the corners.
- the preform and the final crucible are arranged so that its opening (and its bottom) is horizontal or forms an angle less than 15 ° with the horizontal.
- the possible rotation is notably exercised during the merger. It can also be before melting and also during cooling.
- a hollow mold polygon-shaped opening provided with a plurality of channels through its bottom and walls and distributed over its entire inner surface (inner side of the mold) of its side walls and the bottom;
- a gas suction system present in the mold, connected to said channels by the outside of said mold,
- the device may comprise a system for rotating the hollow mold around an axis passing through the centroid of the preform or crucible.
- This axis can be vertical or inclined and in this case usually with an angle less than 15 ° with the vertical.
- This axis is generally perpendicular to the bottom of the preform or the final crucible.
- the device may include a gas control system (nature and flow) constituting the atmosphere in the mold if the gas is not air. However, generally, the atmosphere is air and no gas control system is needed.
- a gas control system nature and flow
- the hollow mold may be made of metal, (in particular of the stainless steel or nickel alloy type such as INCONEL) and provided with porous inserts, or of porous metal, or of a porous material such as porous graphite.
- the mold may not be cooled or cooled for example by an internal water circulation.
- the porous elements of the mold are intended to allow the suction to pass through the mold to act on the formed silica powder.
- the mold is preferably flared upward (i.e., its upper edge), which means that the section of its opening (at the upper edge) is larger than the surface of its bottom.
- the crucible obtained has an inner shape also flared upward (that is to say that the area of its opening is greater than the area of its bottom), which makes it easier to unmold material solidified contained in the crucible.
- the mold has a flat bottom, and the resulting crucible also generally has a flat bottom.
- the crucible made according to the invention has side walls of particularly constant thickness. The thickness variation of the side walls is less than 20%. This variation in thickness is calculated by: (E max - E min ) x10O / E min in which E max is the maximum thickness and E min is the minimum thickness.
- the silica to be formed may contain a little water, especially 0.05 to 40% by weight of water, usually 10 to 25% by weight of water. This water helps to keep the preform in shape.
- the gas suction system in the mold comprises a vacuum pump.
- a vacuum system which makes it possible to obtain a partial pressure of 10 mbar in a perfectly sealed system is generally sufficient.
- a flow rate is provided through the quartz powder and the mold sufficient for the aspirated gas to have the required speed. This gas flow is obtained after filling the mold but before starting the electric arc.
- the suction system is generally connected to a melting pot which is a metal container inside which the mold has been placed.
- the mold is generally attached to the melt pot in a sealed manner, so that the suction created in the melt pot is fully communicated to the channels passing through the mold.
- the mold may be of the type "autocreuset", that is to say silica.
- a bed of large grains of silica is formed in the melting pot, to which the desired shape for the preform is given, and the silica preform is then melted inside the bed.
- the silica grains of the bed should be large enough to allow aspiration at the beginning of fusion to reach the desired gas velocities.
- the space between the large grains of silica forms channels through walls and bottom of the autocreative mold.
- the electrodes generating the gaseous plasma in the mold are generally made of graphite and generally three or more (generally up to 9) and supplied with polyphase (three-phase if three electrodes or 6 electrodes). A single-phase system is also possible.
- the powers delivered depend on the size of the crucible to be manufactured, which has an opening area generally between 5.10 -4 and 6.5 m 2. For these crucible sizes, the powers generally range from 200 to 3000 kW.
- the electric arc can be made from hexa-phase or nona-phase electrodes or by a 3-phase system of 3 or 6 electrodes, so the crucible according to the invention may even have an opening area greater than 0.25 m 2 and even greater than 0.5 m 2 and even greater than 0.9 m 2 .
- the possible system for controlling the nature of the gas constituting the atmosphere in the mold is a source of the gas that has been chosen as the atmosphere in the mold.
- This gas is a plasma gas.
- This gas may be for example helium, helium enriched in oxygen (generally 5 to 15% oxygen in helium), hydrogen (difficult to implement because of its dangerousness), air, argon or nitrogen, or any mixture of these different gases. Pure helium or helium lightly loaded with oxygen is particularly suitable especially in the formation phase of the dense layer of silica because of its high diffusion rate reducing the risk of imprisonment of gas bubbles.
- the electric arc is introduced into the volume of the preform.
- the silica is heated as fast as possible with a high plasma power until a sealed silica-fused skin forms on the inner face of the crucible in formation, which corresponds to the closure of the surface porosity on this face (vis-à-vis the plasma).
- the closure of this porosity is easily followed by measuring and recording the pressure in the suction system. Closing this porosity causes a large and rapid drop in pressure in the pumping circuit.
- This initial step begins at a pressure generally between 50 and 600 mbar (it is the equilibrium pressure that provides the pump operating at full speed through the mold and silica not yet melted in the mold) and continues to obtain a reduced pressure whose value depends on the capacity of the pump but which is generally less than 100 mbar and generally between 80 and 5 mbar. This initial stage lasts on the order of 20 to 150 seconds.
- the power of the plasma can be reduced by modifying the voltage across the electrodes. We then go to a second plasma intensity of lower intensity. The quartz grains located behind the sealed skin are then melted under low pressure, thickening the dense layer of silica, which is transparent and practically free of bubbles.
- the suction can be stopped to continue the melting cycle at atmospheric pressure or at least at a pressure greater than 700 mbar in the system. aspiration.
- This more moderate and higher pressure heating step is favorable to the creation of a porous layer (opaque or slightly translucent) quite far from the inner surface of the crucible. This gives a silica layer with many bubbles located towards the outer surface of the crucible. This high porosity on the external face confers a thermal insulation property on the crucible.
- the method according to the invention leads to a virtual absence of bubbles to a depth generally between 1 and 6 mm from the inner surface of the crucible.
- the layer of bullous silica (opaque or slightly translucent) has a thickness generally ranging from 1 to 20 mm.
- the electrical power used can be 10 to 40% less than the power used for the formation of the sealed skin at the very beginning of heating. It works so little time at high power, which limits the evaporation of silica. Indeed, the evaporation of silica necessarily leads to condensation in a cooler zone, which generates silica particles falling into the crucible. These particles are to be avoided, they generate unacceptable defects for certain applications.
- the layer of quartz grains in the mold (thickness of the preform) generally has a thickness of between 13 and 40 mm.
- the final crucible generally has a thickness of between 6 and 26 mm.
- the crucible according to the invention After producing the crucible according to the invention by the electric arc melting process, it may be coated with a layer of a metal or an oxide or hydroxide or nitride or carbide or oxynitride or oxycarbide or carbonitride or oxycarbonitride a metal on its inner and / or outer surface (here we consider that Si, Ba and Y are metals).
- a layer of barium or of barium oxide or of barium hydroxide or of yttrium oxide or silicon nitride may be deposited on the inner and / or outer surface of the crucible.
- WO9424505 US5976247, US5980629.
- the crucible according to the invention has very diverse applications and in particular for:
- the crucible according to the invention finds laboratory uses, in particular:
- boxes transparent to electromagnetic waves for industrial radio-frequency applications such as induction
- radio-transmissions such as radome
- the invention also relates to the use of the crucible for calcining powder, in particular alumina or phosphorescent powder or of luminescent powder, or of rare earth or for the melting of metals, in particular precious metals, or for the fusion of silicon, in particular monocrystalline or multicrystalline silicon.
- FIG. 1 represents the system for receiving pulverulent silica.
- a melting pot 1 is connected by a pipe 2 to a vacuum pump (not shown).
- the mold 3 is sealed to the melt pot by its upper edge.
- This mold consists of substantially vertical walls 4 (a little oblique with respect to the vertical like most crucibles) and a bottom 5. These walls 4 and the bottom 5 have been drilled and the holes 1 1 made are filled by porous metal inserts (not shown) passing the suction exerted between the melting pot 1 and the mold 3.
- a moderate rotation may optionally be exerted around the axis AA ', which passes through the barycentre of the preform or the Final crucible and is perpendicular to the opening and bottom of the preform or final crucible.
- the walls 4 move away from one another upwards to give a flared shape to the mold and consequently to the silica crucible which will emerge from it.
- the area of the opening (surface of the opening at the top of the walls 4) is greater than the area of the bottom 5. It will be the same for the formed silica crucible.
- Figure 2 shows a rectangular opening mold seen from above on the side of the opening.
- the orifices 1 1 aligned and provided with porous inserts.
- the mold is provided with 4 side walls (12, 13, 14, 15) which are also pierced and provided with a porous insert such as the bottom 10.
- the suction exerted in the melting pot applies to all the walls as at the bottom of the silica preform.
- This example describes the production of a square-opening silica crucible of size 250 ⁇ 250 mm, the height of the crucible being 160 mm.
- the silica is melted by an electric arc generated by a group of three three-phase electrodes whose respective diameter was 36 mm / 38 mm / 36 mm.
- the electrical power delivered by the electrodes was 230 KWh.
- Silica tubes flowing with cooling water were placed 50 mm above the mold to act as a heat shield. These tubes are not joined so that the electrodes can pass between tubes.
- a mold was placed in the melt pot, the walls of the mold being a few centimeters away from the walls of the melt pot. A gas circulation could thus take place between the melting pot and the mold.
- the mold was NS30 refractory stainless steel. Internally, this mold had the desired shape for the outside of the crucible.
- the stainless steel forming its structure was pierced with a multiplicity of orifices of diameter 5 mm, the hole density being about 1 hole per cm 2 , each hole being filled by a porous metal pellet of reference SIKA R AX100 marketed by GKN Filter.
- SIKA R AX100 marketed by GKN Filter.
- the shaping is provided by a counter-form pressing the silica powder inside the mold, said counterform being then removed.
- the electrodes are placed 250 mm above the mold (thus about 200 mm above the heat shield) and in the central position (in an axis passing through the point of intersection of the diagonals of the square of the opening and therefore also by the barycentre of the final crucible or the preform, this axis is perpendicular to the bottom of the crucible or the preform).
- the plasma is ignited in this position, then the electrodes follow a path inside the crucible in formation to plunge up to 30 mm (vertically) in the mold (30 mm below the upper edge of the crucible) and for come closer up to 10 mm from the vertical walls of the crucible in formation.
- Example 2 The procedure is as for Example 1 except that the starting pulverulent silica was moistened (12% water by weight), and the initial melting intensity was only 20 Nm 3 / h, which gives a gas velocity at the silica level of 0.1 m / s.
- the final crucible has deformities (sometimes called blistering).
- Example 2 The procedure is as for Example 1 except that no metal mold is placed in the melting pot, but an "autocreuset" is formed with silica beads of 5 mm granulometry in direct contact with the melt pot and over a thickness of 30 mm, then a layer of coarse sand (particle size approximately 100-300 ⁇ ).
- the pulverulent silica is then placed in a crucible.
- the suction speed is of the order of 1 m / s at the bottom but less than 0.03 m / s at the walls.
- the final crucible has deformities (sometimes called blistering).
- Example 5 The procedure is as for Example 3, except that the melting pot (and its contents of course), is rotated at 150 RPM. The rotation of the mold has tended to generate at the angles of the final crucible a radius of curvature greater than 30 mm. In addition, the final crucible has deformations (sometimes called blistering).
- EXAMPLE 5 comparative
- Example 2 The procedure is as for Example 1, except that the melting pot (and its contents of course), is rotated at 150 RPM about a vertical axis passing through its center of gravity.
