S100:Pretreatment
According to an embodiment of the invention, ruby raw material is prepared, and raw material is placed between cathode and anode, and
A part for anode is embedded in the bottom of raw material.Be conducive to subsequently heat ruby raw material as a result,.
According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the aluminium oxide of 98-98.5 weight % can be included by preparing ruby raw material
With the chromium oxide of 1.5-2 weight %.Using the aluminium oxide and chromium oxide of aforementioned proportion raw material is configured, and be not introduced into other in the present invention
Impurity component, thus, it is possible to make the ruby finally obtained that there is higher quality.
According to a particular embodiment of the invention, anode can be tungsten-copper alloy anode, and the copper content of alloys in common use is 10-
50%.Alloy is produced with powder metallurgy process, has good electrical and thermal conductivity, preferable elevated temperature strength and certain plasticity.
At very high temperatures, such as 3000 DEG C or more, the copper in alloy is liquefied evaporation, largely absorbs heat, reduction material surface temperature
Degree.Gun body anode and cathode in the present invention is protected by water cooling, and maximum temperature is no more than 1000 DEG C.It is suitable by selecting in the present invention
Tungsten alloy can make anode have the fusing point far above aluminium oxide and chromium oxide, as a result, when aluminium oxide and chromium oxide as anode
Will not cause too much influence to anode after melting, so as to avoid prepare ruby anodic be fusing into melt into
And pollute ruby.
S200:Raw material is heated with untransferable arc

Performance.Inventors be surprised to learn that being heated by using untransferable arc to the center at the top of raw material, raw material can be made to exist
Start to melt on cathode to the direction of anode, and only the fraction region of heart position forms melt, periphery raw material in the feed
It does not melt, and then melt is made to be surrounded by aluminium oxide and chromium oxide powder, until melt and positive contact, it is possible thereby to utilize oxidation
The heat-barrier material of aluminium and chromium oxide powder as melt, and then can save and refractory brick is set in container inner wall, it not only reduces
Cost, while the refractory brick of setting can also be avoided to melt at high temperature and pollute ruby.
According to a particular embodiment of the invention, by take the above method make furnace interior donor center position small portion
Divide and form melt, peripheral part is non-fusible, can fully simulate nature volcano magma phenomenon, and then the ruby and nature generated
The ruby of generation is quite similar.
S300:Melt is heated with transferred arc or conjunct arc
According to an embodiment of the invention, melt is heated with transferred arc or conjunct arc.It is according to the present invention specific
Embodiment when carrying out being heated to the melt contacts to be formed to anode to raw material using untransferable arc, can utilize melt oxidation
Aluminium further heats melt using transferred arc or conjunct arc, melt is made more to stablize as conducting medium.Lead to as a result,
The electric conductivity for efficiently using melt is crossed, realizes that untransferable arc switches to transferred arc or conjunct arc, and then melt can be enable to obtain
To abundant heating, and then further improve ruby quality.
According to a particular embodiment of the invention, conjunct arc may be used to heat melt.Thus, it is possible to use joint
Arc to the top and bottom of melt heat simultaneously so that raw material can be melted preferably, and then effectively improve red treasured
Stone quality.
S400:Stop heating and cool down melt
According to an embodiment of the invention, stop heating, cool down melt, to obtain ruby.Thus, it is possible to it finally makes
It is standby to obtain ruby.
According to a particular embodiment of the invention, cooling can be natural cooling or quenching cooling.Thus, it is possible to effective
To ruby.
In conclusion the ruby method for preparing by using the above embodiment of the present invention at least has following beneficial effect
One of fruit:
1st, aluminium oxide and chromium oxide are used as raw material, and raw material is heated using plasma arc under an inert atmosphere,
Other impurity are not introduced in preparation process, and then can be in relatively low cost and the higher red treasured of synthesis quality in the shorter time
Stone.
2nd, raw material is heated using untransferable arc and conjunct arc, generated time is short, efficient.
3rd, it is constrained by raw material itself, makes the fraction zone melting for there was only donor center in heating process, surrounding
Part is non-fusible, can fully simulate nature volcano magma phenomenon, make the ruby of generation with the ruby generated naturally very
It is similar.
