Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain quartz glass having resistance to melting loss and very hardly causing bubble formation and cracking by incorporating a specified amount of nitrogen. CONSTITUTION:Nitrogen atoms are substituted for part of oxygen atoms in quartz glass to incorporate 0.5-20wt% nitrogen into the glass. By the substitution, -Si-O-Si- bonds are converted into bonds represented by the formula. The resulting quartz glass having resistance to melting loss is manufactured by melting quartz and a nitrogen compound such as Si3N4 or BN in a nitrogen atmosphere.

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, quartz glass has been widely used as a melting crucible in half-and-half industries, chemical industries, and the like. Among them, optical glass melting crucibles often suffer from devitrification or cracking despite the low operating temperature.

からである。また、通常では生成しにくいトリジマイト
等も使用後のルツボに多量にみられた。
This is because the optical glass contains a large amount of alkali and total ion, which attack the silica glass and cause it to melt. Additionally, a large amount of tridymite, which is difficult to produce normally, was found in the crucible after use.

The strength of conventional quartz glass is approximately 1/200 of the theoretical strength.

However, physical strengthening methods such as annealing were not very effective, as they required a large amount of time and heat, but did not improve the strength very much. In addition, there are limits to the strengthening method that improves the purity of raw materials and products, and it is not a fundamental measure to improve strength. For this reason, failures due to cracks have been a major problem with conventional quartz glass.

If the nitrogen content is lower than 0.5% by weight, there will be no change in the erosion resistance and it will not be possible to create quartz glass that is resistant to erosion.If the nitrogen content is lower than 20% by weight, If it is large, bubbles and cracks will occur in the quartz glass, resulting in poor erosion resistance.

Shiki Mal l- Quartz crystal powder and silicon nitrogen are put into a molybdenum furnace equipped with a tungsten heater, and after replacing the atmosphere with -M carbon and nitrogen, the furnace is sealed and the inside of the furnace is brought to 5 to 10 atmospheres. The humidity in the furnace was gradually increased and maintained at 2200°C. After several hours, the gas inside the furnace was cooled down to 2 atmospheres, and then the molten quartz glass was taken out from the lower part of the furnace and allowed to cool naturally to produce the melt-resistant quartz glass of the present invention. This quartz glass block is processed with an oxyhydrogen flame to make various crucibles and plates, but the amount of nitrogen released during rrn I 7 was extremely small (less than 0.5%). .
