The application provides a method for in-situ
combustion synthesis of high-purity nanometer
silicon carbide powder, and belongs to the technical field of inorganic nanometer material preparation, and comprises the following steps: placing water-soluble saccharide substances, gel monomers, water-soluble solutions of a crosslinking agent and an initiator into
ion exchange columns respectively for
filtration purification, then mixing the water-soluble saccharide substances, the gel material and high-purity
silicon powder to form a
sol, further carrying out in-situ gel solidification and pre-
carbonization treatment to obtain a Si / C
composite material block; carrying out
combustion synthesis reaction on the obtained Si / C
composite material,
grinding the obtained block-shaped product to obtain the high-purity nanometer
silicon carbide powder. The high-purity
carbon source and the silicon source are fixed by the gel network, the silicon powder is uniformly embedded in the
carbon skeleton, uniform dispersion and close combination of the two are realized, and the in-situ
combustion synthesis reaction is efficiently promoted. The
raw material cost in the application is low, the preparation process is simple, the environment is friendly, and the application is suitable for industrialized large-scale production of high-purity nanometer
silicon carbide powder.
