The invention discloses a method for preparing porous
alumina ceramic by a
gel casting method. The method comprises the following steps: adding aluminum isopropoxide into isopropanol, and uniformly stirring to form a dissolving solution; spraying
distilled water into the dissolved solution, and carrying out ultrasonic reaction to obtain an
emulsion; adding
polyvinyl alcohol into
distilled water, uniformly stirring, then adding
hyaluronic acid and high-substituted hydroxy propyl
cellulose, carrying out constant-temperature ultrasonic treatment, and cooling to obtain a gel solution; dropwise adding the gel liquid into the
emulsion, carrying out
microwave reaction and heating treatment to form a suspended dispersion liquid, and then carrying out
distillation treatment to obtain viscous
slurry; and transferring the viscous
slurry into a
grinding mold, slowly heating, carrying out heat preservation treatment, cooling, demolding to obtain a biscuit, and
sintering the biscuit to obtain the porous
alumina ceramic. According to the preparation method, the defects of the existing aluminum
oxide ceramic are overcome, aluminum isopropoxide is used as an aluminum source to form an
emulsion of aluminum
hydroxide as a precipitate and an aluminum isopropoxide liquid film, and a porous ceramic structure is formed through a gel
system, so that the
connectivity and the overall firmness of the aluminum
oxide ceramic are greatly improved.
