The invention relates to the technical field of
silicon carbide ceramics, in particular to a preparation method and a
sintering device of a large-sized pressureless sintered
silicon carbide ceramic tubing, and the preparation method comprises the following steps: uniformly mixing beta-type
silicon carbide whiskers,
graphite powder,
boron carbide, a
sintering aid, a dispersing agent, a binder and
silicon carbide micro
powder, then adding water, and stirring to prepare pug with the
water content of 32-38%; pugging is conducted till pug with the
water content being 8%-11% is obtained, and then the pug obtained after pugging is sealed and aged at the
room temperature; carrying out
extrusion molding on the aged pug through a vacuum extruder to obtain a
ceramic tube blank; the
ceramic blank
pipe is fed into
drying equipment to be dried; and
sintering the ceramic blank tube in a
nitrogen atmosphere at 1900-2150 DEG C to obtain the
silicon carbide ceramic tube. By adding the beta-type
silicon carbide whiskers, the silicon carbide micro
powder, the sintering aid and other substances, the
toughness and strength of the silicon carbide ceramic
pipe can be enhanced, the wall thickness of the
pipe can be reduced on the premise of keeping the same strength level,
thermal resistance can be reduced, and the heat exchange efficiency of a
heat exchanger can be improved.
