Specific implementation mode
It in order to make the object, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiment of the invention clearer, below will be in the embodiment of the present invention
Technical solution be clearly and completely described.The person that is not specified actual conditions in embodiment, builds according to normal condition or manufacturer
The condition of view carries out.Reagents or instruments used without specified manufacturer is the conventional production that can be obtained by commercially available purchase
Product.
Below to the embodiment of the present invention can the molding silicon nitride ceramic of Fast Sintering and preparation method thereof carry out it is specific
Explanation.
The present invention provide it is a kind of can the molding silicon nitride ceramic of Fast Sintering preparation method, including:
S1,10-15 parts by weight yttrium alkoxide and 5-8 parts by weight aluminium-alcohol salts are dissolved in 200-250 parts by weight alcoholic solvents, shape
At colloidal sol.
S2,95-110 parts by weight α-siliconnitride and 5-8 parts by weight beta-silicon nitrides is added into colloidal sol in stirring, ammonia is added dropwise
Water, which is adjusted, is heated to 60-80 DEG C of sealing 4-8h after pH value is 9-10, form gel.
S3, gel is calcined into drying, obtains the silicon nitride of surface modification.
S4, the silicon nitride of surface modification and 5-8 parts by weight boron nitride nano-tube and 8-12 parts by weight silicon carbide whiskers are mixed
It closes, obtaining can the molding silicon nitride ceramic of Fast Sintering.
It in the above method, is sintered using the compound system of α-siliconnitride and beta-silicon nitride, α-is induced with beta-silicon nitride
Silicon nitride carries out crystal transfer, so that α-siliconnitride is passed through crystallization of the dissolution and precipitation and is grown on the surface of beta-silicon nitride, is conducive to quickly burn
Knot, the consistency and intensity for improving sintered products.
Further, α-siliconnitride and beta-silicon nitride use the powder of micron level.Specifically, α-siliconnitride is that purity is big
The powder for being about 0.2-0.5 μm in 99%, grain size;Beta-silicon nitride is the crystal seed that diameter is about 0.5-1 μm, draw ratio is 7-10.
Sintering aid is added in the form of yttrium alkoxide and aluminium-alcohol salt, and nitridation is wrapped in by sol-gel technique formation
The yttria-alumina sintering aid of silicon face, the beta-silicon nitride powder that obtained surface is modified has better sintering activity, brilliant
Boundary is easy to controlled micro crystallization, is suitable for that Fast Sintering is fine and close, is easily obtained the silicon nitride ceramics that crystallite dimension is uniform, performance is stablized.
Optionally, in some of the invention specific embodiments, alcoholic solvent in ethyl alcohol, propyl alcohol and butanol at least
It is a kind of.Such as the alcoholic solvent can be both individual ethyl alcohol, individual propyl alcohol, individual butanol, ethyl alcohol and propyl alcohol combination,
The combination of the combination of both combination, propyl alcohol and the butanol of both ethyl alcohol and butanol and ethyl alcohol with propyl alcohol and butanol three.
If select propyl alcohol, which is preferably selected as isopropanol.If select butanol, which is preferably selected as
N-butanol.
Further, yttrium alkoxide and aluminium-alcohol salt are optionally at least one of ethylate and propylate, such as yttrium alkoxide
Can be the combination of both individual ethylate, individual propylate and yttrium alkoxide and propylate, aluminium-alcohol salt can be independent
Ethylate, individual propylate and yttrium alkoxide and both propylates combination.
It is coagulated through inventor the study found that carrying out colloidal sol-using the alcoholic solvent cooperation of the alkoxide and mentioned kind of mentioned kind
Glue reacts, the uniformity that the yttria-alumina sintering aid of generation is wrapped up in silicon nitride surface more preferably, obtained silicon nitride
The sintering activity of powder is more preferable.
In some optional embodiments of the invention, it is added after α-siliconnitride and beta-silicon nitride and is added dropwise before ammonium hydroxide,
It further include addition 2-4 parts by weight coagulant.Coagulant is optionally trien.
Flocculant added with the gelation conducive to sol system, make the speed of gelation faster, the effect of gel it is more preferable.
The temperature of gel calcining is preferably 400-500 DEG C, to silicon nitride powder body surface while fully dry to gel
Face carries out heat treatment and generates yttria-alumina sintering aid.Temperature is too low to make dry insufficient, yttria-alumina turn
Change is not thorough, and the excessively high yttria-alumina that is easy to cause of temperature is ineffective to the package of beta-silicon nitride powder, therefore calcination temperature
It is too low or excessively high modified effect can all be adversely affected.
On this basis, boron nitride nano-tube, silicon carbide whisker are introduced, toughness, the bending resistance of product can be further increased
Intensity and cracking resistance etc..
Specifically, silicon carbide whisker is used to increase the toughness of silicon nitride ceramics, since the linear expansion coefficient of silicon carbide is long-range
In silicon nitride, in sintering process, tangential residual stress can be generated in the base, external force is made to be acted on to silicon nitride ceramics
When, inherent residual stress is first offset, achievees the purpose that stress toughening.Further, since the expansion coefficient difference of two kinds of materials,
Micro-crack can be generated in the base, can equally be played the role of offsetting external force, be achieved the purpose that microcrack evolution equation.Meanwhile it being carbonized
Silicon wafer must can be such that the crystal grain of ceramic material further refines, and so that ceramic material is preferably densified, improve its mechanical strength.
The interface cohesion of boron nitride nano-tube and silicon nitride ceramics is good, is generated in cooperation silicon carbide whisker makes matrix micro-
In the case of crackle, the stress of silicon nitride ceramics crack tip can be absorbed, effectively prevents and generates big in silicon nitride matrix
Stress concentration, when near crack propagation to silicon carbide whisker, crack tip can form strong stress shielding area, increase crackle
The resistance of extension is conducive to the intensity and cracking resistance that improve silicon nitride ceramics, keeps the modifying function of silicon carbide whisker further
Controllableization.
Optionally, the mixing of the silicon nitride with boron nitride nano-tube and silicon carbide whisker of surface modification includes:Surface is repaiied
Silicon nitride, boron nitride nano-tube and the silicon carbide whisker of decorations are scattered in organic solvent, are stirred with the rotating speed of 400-600r/min
1-2h, the content that organic solvent is then dried under conditions of 120-150 DEG C of temperature are not higher than 1wt%.
The silicon nitride of surface modification is mixed in organic solvent with boron nitride nano-tube and silicon carbide whisker, convenient for dispersion
Uniformly, it is conducive to sintering.Disperseed in the form of stirring, avoids the oxidation to the surface package of the silicon nitride of surface modification
Yttrium-alumina sintering auxiliary agent film layer causes to damage.
Further, organic solvent is selected from least one of methanol, ethyl alcohol and acetone, such as can be individual methanol,
Individual ethyl alcohol, individual acetone, methanol and ethyl alcohol combination, methanol and acetone combination, ethyl alcohol and acetone two
Combination, methanol and the ethyl alcohol of person and the combination etc. of acetone three.
Through inventor the study found that by silicon nitride ceramic made from the above method, in 1700-1800 DEG C of temperature, nitrogen
Hot pressing 30min or so can be obtained the silicon nitride ceramics of compact high-strength under conditions of atmospheric pressure 30MPa.
