The invention discloses a preparation method and application of a
nano porous foamed aluminum material, and belongs to the technical field of
porous metal materials. The method comprises the following steps: mixing main aluminum
powder with SiO2 coated aluminum
powder waste; the three-layer core-shell pore-forming agent is of a PMMA inner core / Sn-Bi
alloy middle layer / Al2O3 outer layer structure, and the PMMA particle size of the three-layer core-shell pore-forming agent is in gradient distribution (the
surface layer is 50-100 nm, the middle layer is 200-300 nm, and the core layer is 400-500 nm); after cold press molding, two-stage stepped
sintering is carried out, in the first stage, Sn-Bi
alloy is melted at low temperature in N2-H2
atmosphere to wrap aluminum
powder, and in the second stage, PMMA is decomposed at high temperature under vacuum, carbon-containing gas and pressure to form pores, and an Al4C3 reinforced phase is generated in situ. High-performance fireproof, catalytic and
electromagnetic shielding functional materials can be further prepared through surface compounding of Al4C3 / expanded
graphite, in-situ growth of ZnO nanorods / Pt or compounding of carbon nanotubes, and the material can be widely applied to the fields of
new energy batteries, environment-friendly
catalysis and 5G communication.
