This invention discloses a method for preparing high-density, large-particle-size spherical
alumina powder, belonging to the field of inorganic non-metallic material preparation technology. The method uses industrial aluminum
hydroxide or industrial
alumina containing a transition phase as
raw material. It involves introducing 1-10% α-
alumina seed crystals and 1.0-3.0% composite mineralizer (containing
boron and
fluorine sources) by
mass of the raw materials. After mechanical mixing, the mixture is calcined in air at 1350-1550℃ for 2-8 hours. Finally, the mixture is cooled, dispersed, and sieved to obtain the final product. This invention, through the synergistic effect of seed crystals and composite mineralizer, simultaneously achieves α-phase transformation, densification,
grain growth, and
morphology control of alumina
powder under mild
calcination conditions. It successfully prepares alumina
powder with an α-phase content ≥96%, true density >3.96 g / cm³, median particle size D50 ≥50 μm, and a regular
spherical morphology. This method is simple, low-cost, and the product is suitable for high-filling thermally conductive fillers, showing great promise for industrial application.
