The invention discloses a preparation method of borate mineralized
cerium-based
rare earth polishing powder, and belongs to the technical field of
rare earth polishing materials. Comprising the following steps: adding water into a
rare earth precursor for size mixing, then adding a fluorinating agent and a mineralizing agent for mixing, size mixing, ball-milling, aging, then carrying out
spray drying to remove
moisture, then carrying out high-temperature
roasting, and screening the calcined material to obtain a
polishing powder product. The operation process is stable and easy to implement, the average particle size of materials is adjusted through precursor ball milling, structural defects are eliminated, uniform dispersion of a fluorinating agent and a mineralizing agent is promoted, the mineralizing agent promotes a
solid-
phase reaction in the high-temperature
roasting process, and therefore the
solid-
phase reaction temperature is reduced, and the unit
cell agglomeration strength is enhanced; compared with a conventional production process, the cost of
calcination and crushing grading is obviously reduced, and the prepared polishing
powder has the advantages of strong
grinding capability, good
wear resistance, high
grinding precision and high effective
utilization rate compared with the existing product in the market, and can be used for rapid
thinning of soft
optical glass and surface precision
machining of high-
hardness and fragile glass.
