Description

Be used for rare earth-copper-aluminium nano particle of low temperature magnetic refrigeration and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to magnetic Nano material, especially relate to a kind of rare earth-copper-aluminium nano particle for low temperature magnetic refrigeration and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Low-temperature refrigeration technology (T<20 K) relates to fields such as national security and national economy at biologic medical, semi-conductor industry, the cryogenic gas energy, superconduction low temperature environment refrigeration, high energy acclerator low-temperature protection etc. the important use meaning.In the medium-term and long-term planning of science activities of China and the United States, low-temperature refrigeration technology all is listed in the primary study project in energy environment protection and environmentally conscious materials field.Low temperature magnetic Refrigeration Technique comes across the eighties in 20th century as an emerging low-temperature refrigeration technology, and the refrigeration scope can be from 20 K to μ K level, application promise in clinical practice is arranged aspect the green energy resource liquid hydrogen producing.The more important thing is that low temperature magnetic Refrigeration Technique has advantages such as reliability height, energy-efficient, noiselessness, non-environmental-pollution and work period be long, has become current domestic and international research focus.
The magnetic refrigeration is to utilize the magnetothermal effect of magnetic material to realize freezing.When magnetothermal effect referred to that the magnetic material thermal insulation adds magnetic, the magnetic moment order increased, and magnetic entropy reduces, and emits heat to external world; During adiabatic demagnetization, the magnetic moment order reduces, and magnetic entropy increases, and absorbs heat from the external world; Finish a Carnot cycle, thus the refrigeration of realization.At low-temperature space (T<20 K), conduction electron warm-up movement and solid lattice vibration can be ignored, and the magnetic entropy of material becomes and is approximately equal to total Entropy Changes, thus the efficient of low temperature magnetic refrigeration to be higher than in high temperature magnetic refrigerating.The major parameter that characterizes the magnetic refrigerating material magnetic heating performance is that magnetic entropy becomes (), material more big, and refrigerating capacity and efficient are also just more high.Paramagnetic salt is the typical magnetic refrigerating material of low-temperature space, and these compounds mainly are the method acquisition utmost point low temperature by adiabatic demagnetization.In addition, because the poor thermal conductivity of paramagnetic salt is unfavorable to adiabatic demagnetization.Usually, the material with first order phase change character also can show big magnetothermal effect, but first order phase change also can be accompanied by the appearance of heat stagnation and magnetic hysteresis, thereby has reduced the refrigerating capacity of material.Though have the appearance that the material of second-order phase transistion character does not have heat stagnation and magnetic hysteresis, because its excellent refrigerating capacity only appears near the phase transition temperature, this has seriously restricted the temperature range of its application.
Professor Shull of NBS prophesy because non-interacting super paramagnetic nano particle has the magnetic behavior of high magnetic moment density and similar paramagnetic, has the magnetic entropy higher than paramagnetic salt at low temperatures and becomes (Δ S M), and its magnetic entropy variate can reduce and increase gradually with temperature.Nano particle has very high surface area simultaneously, is conducive to improve heat transfer efficiency in the thermal cycle process, and therefore super paramagnetic nano particle will replace paramagnetic salt as the low temperature magnetic refrigeration working substance of a new generation.In recent years, synthetic super paramagnetic nano particle with the high magnetic entropy change of low temperature becomes the focus of research gradually.Evaporate rare earth and metal A l simultaneously, when forming intermetallic compound, because the molten boiling point of Al atom is lower than rare earth atom, in evaporation process, be adsorbed at formation compound particle surface and oxidized formation Al 2O 3Shell can be prepared the rare earth-Al compound/Al with core/shell structure 2O 3Nano capsule.RAl 2/ Al 2O 3(R=Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho) the serial nano capsule prepares (S.
