The invention relates to nano-scale special zirconia
powder and a preparation method thereof, and the preparation method comprises the following steps: S1, adding
zircon salt, micromolecular
polyol, a chelating agent, a surfactant and
propylene glycol dimethyl ether into deionized water to prepare a
zircon salt solution; s2, dropwise adding the
zirconium salt solution into a precipitant for
precipitation reaction; s3, octanoic acid is added, stirring is conducted for 1-2 h, ultrasonic treatment is conducted for 20-30 min, and Zr (OH) turbid liquid is obtained; s4, enabling the Zr (OH) turbid liquid to pass through an
ion resin column, then acidifying, filtering and washing for multiple times; s5, carrying out ball milling treatment; s6, spraying
powder and
drying; and S8, calcining to obtain the nano-scale special
zirconium oxide powder. According to the nanoscale special
zirconium oxide powder and the preparation method thereof, the problems of purity,
dispersity and
crystal phase stability of nano
zirconium oxide are solved through precipitant optimization, purification optimization, low-temperature
crystal phase control and the like, a reliable path is provided for industrial production, and the application prospect is wide.
