Implement the present invention and there is following beneficial effect:
One, the invention provides a kind of laser transparent ceramic and preparation method thereof, adopt with in the past different hot pressing vibratory sintering methods and make above-mentioned laser transparent ceramic, can be guaranteeing that product obtains that high densification, uniform crystal particles, pore are few, crystal boundary and lattice imperfection few, the transmitance height waits under the prerequisite of excellent properties, still the sintering period can be shortened, reduce sintering process consuming time, reduce costs.
At first, adopt hot pressing vibratory sintering technique, be sintered material when applying constant force up and down, apply the vibration force of an adjustable amplitude and frequency, what apply up and down like this is that constant force adds variable force simultaneously, and stack just produces vibration force.It is fine and close that material is accelerated diffusion in hot pressing.
Secondly, material, when hot pressing vibratory sintering, is subject to two sizes identical, the power of opposite direction.This two power also earthquake constantly, constantly reach a kind of dynamic balance, had more a thrust surface than the uniaxial pressure of original traditional hot pressed sintering like this, can make material be issued to the densification of maximum possible in such two-way function, thereby reach the optimum performance of this material.
Again, in the diffusion in hot pressing later stage, climb the stage of moving, material internal is followed contraction, its most of pore is got rid of, the contraction speed of pore can significantly reduce, and the pore major part becomes the hole of holding one's breath, and the isolated hole of holding one's breath is subject to diffusion and climbs the stress influence moved and still can constantly shrink each other.And, along with the sealed porosity internal pressure increases, further get rid of these isolated pores and just become more difficult.It is to remove the key of sealed porosity that the speed of moving is climbed in diffusion.And hot pressing vibratory sintering technique of the present invention, the additional vibration force of variable frequency and amplitude provides exitation factor, has increased diffusion and has climbed the speed of moving.Reached the effect of last eliminating pore.Therefore, hot pressing vibratory sintering is mainly to have utilized to vibrate this, makes material form more uniform internal structure under the condition of high temperature, can make material fine and close as much as possible.
In a word, hot pressing vibratory sintering technique, in the material high temperature sintering, is given the additional pressure of material, makes material carry out sintering under pressure state, and like this, material easily obtains full densification.And, can make material form more uniform internal structure under the condition of high temperature, can shorten like this sintering period to 10 of laser transparent ceramic of the present invention ~ the 20h left and right, the sintering period is obviously faster than vacuum sintering, and heat-up rate is fast, soaking time is short, the water-cooled fast cooling, effectively reduces costs.Simultaneously, also can reach better performance, higher index, high (the density reachable 4.60g/cm of prepared laser transparent ceramic density
3), uniform crystal particles, pore is few, crystal boundary and lattice imperfection are few, transmitance is high, at the visible region transmittance 70%, the infrared region transmittance>80%.
What two, adopt due to the present invention is hot pressing vibratory sintering, can exert pressure and vibrate powder when sintering and can make the densification of product Fast Sintering, therefore, the present invention only need adopt a kind of sintering aid tetraethoxy can reach corresponding effect, and its addition is 0 ~ 2wt%, avoided the excessive use sintering aid, reduce the introducing of impurity, improve purity, the density of goods, simplified preparation technology.
