Description

High-flux preparation method of LaFeSi-based magnetic refrigeration material
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of magnetic materials, in particular to a high-flux preparation method of a LaFeSi-based magnetic refrigeration material.
Background
With the development of modern society, refrigeration technology plays a vital role in improving the living standard and working environment of people. Refrigeration appliances such as refrigerators, air conditioners and the like enter household, and the annual energy consumption of the refrigeration industry accounts for more than 15% of the total energy consumption of the whole society according to statistics. The highest efficiency of the currently generally used gas compression refrigeration technology is only 25%, and the gas compression refrigeration technology has the defects of harmful gas emission, high noise, large volume and the like. Therefore, the exploration of a novel refrigeration technology which is environment-friendly, efficient and energy-saving becomes a problem which needs to be solved urgently at present.
The magnetic refrigeration technology is a green refrigeration technology which takes a magnetic material as a working medium and utilizes the magnetocaloric effect of the material to refrigerate. Compared with the traditional compressed gas expansion refrigeration technology, the magnetic refrigeration technology has the following advantages: (1) refrigerants such as Freon, ammonia and the like are not used, so that the environment pollution is avoided; (2) the magnetic refrigeration material is in a solid state, the entropy density of the magnetic refrigeration material is far greater than that of gas, and the refrigeration efficiency is high; (3) the magnetic heat effect is utilized for refrigeration, large-amplitude gas compression movement is not needed, additional energy consumption is avoided, and meanwhile, the refrigerating machine is small in size and stable and reliable in operation. This refrigeration technology has thus received wide attention worldwide.
In recent years, china, the united states, the netherlands, japan, etc. have found several classes of materials that have a giant magnetocaloric effect in the room temperature range, such as: Gd-Si-Ge, Ni-Mn-Ga, Mn-Fe-P-As, MnAs, La (Fe, Si)13And the like. The materials have the common characteristic that magnetic phase change is accompanied with remarkable change of a crystal structure, and the magnetocaloric effect of the materials is obviously higher than that of traditional magnetic refrigeration materials Gd. In these new magnetic refrigeration materials, NaZn13La (Fe, Si) of type structure13The compound is one of the most important materials with the magnetocaloric effect because of the advantages of no toxicity, small hysteresis, low phase-change driving field, low price of raw materials, easy adjustment of Curie temperature and the like.
La (Fe, Si) is used in magnetic refrigeration prototypes of a plurality of laboratories around the world13The base material is used as a magnetic working medium. As such, La (Fe, Si)13Magnetic refrigeration materials have shown great application prospect, but form a single block NaZn13Type structure La (Fe, Si)13The compound needs high-temperature annealing for seven days or even several weeks, which not only wastes energy, but also has an ultra-long production period, thus greatly restricting the industrial application of the compound.
Some studies have shown that the rapid solidification process can shorten La (Fe, Si)13The preparation period of the magnetic refrigeration material is limited, but the research on the cooling rate is only limited to the research under the fixed solidification condition, namely, the research on the solidification under the fixed cooling environment is carried out once, but the preparation method of one furnace at one time has low efficiency, and melt elements in different smelting environments are volatilized differently, so that the problem that the melt elements are easy to causeThe comparison results are unreliable. Therefore, a preparation method for efficiently obtaining different alloy structures and properties in the same sample at high throughput is one of the problems to be solved at present.

Therefore, the invention effectively realizes that different cooling rates are provided at different heights in the same sample, and a series of solidified alloy structures are obtained at different cooling rates, namely, the sizes of primary iron-rich phase dendrites in the same sample are changed in a gradient manner along the height direction of the copper mold, and the distances between primary iron-rich phase dendrites are finer at the height with the smaller cross section width, so that the gradient of the magnetocaloric effect is further realized, namely, the magnetocaloric effect of the material is better at the height with the smaller cross section width.
(2) The LaFeSi-based magnetic refrigeration material prepared by the preparation method has gradient solidification structure and gradient magnetocaloric effect, therefore, the microstructure obtained by different cooling rates in the same sample prepared by high flux characterization of a scanning electron microscope can be utilized, and the corresponding relation between the microstructure and the magnetocaloric effect of the LaFeSi-based magnetic refrigeration material and the section width of a copper mold can be obtained by combining the magnetocaloric performance test, can be used for rapidly screening alloy tissue structures, optimal sample preparation parameters and the like, and also can be used in actual preparation, according to the organization structure characteristics and the performance of the actually required LaFeSi-based magnetic refrigeration material, comparing the corresponding relation to obtain the section width of the copper mold, which is called as reference section width, so that in the actual preparation process, and keeping other preparation conditions unchanged, and realizing the preparation of the actually required LaFeSi-based magnetic refrigeration material only by controlling the section width of the actually used copper die to be the reference section width.
