Embodiment 1

[0025] Weigh the initial raw material 40g Al 2 o 3 and 0.004g Al powder into a nylon resin ball mill jar, use alumina balls with a purity of 99%, add polyethylene glycol with a mass fraction of alumina powder of 1‰ and 250mL alcohol, and perform wet ball milling in a high-energy ball mill for 8 hours . Put the mixture after high-energy ball milling into a 99% alumina ceramic crucible, dry it in an oven at 50°C to obtain a uniformly mixed powder, shape it with various molding methods, and sinter it at 1550°C in an ordinary sintering furnace under an air atmosphere. Hours, a single-phase alumina ceramic with in-situ growth of long columnar and plate-like crystals is obtained, and its typical structure is as follows figure 1 shown. Depend on figure 1 It can be seen that the prepared alumina ceramic grains have appeared tabular crystals or long columnar crystals with an aspect ratio greater than 2.

[0027] Weigh the initial raw material 40g Al 2 o 3 and 0.02g Al powder into a nylon resin ball mill jar, use alumina grinding balls with a purity of 99%, add polyethylene glycol with a mass fraction of alumina powder of 5‰ and 250mL alcohol, and perform wet ball milling in a high-energy ball mill for 10 hours . Put the mixture after high-energy ball milling into a 99% alumina ceramic crucible, and dry it in an oven at 50°C to obtain a uniformly mixed powder, which is formed by cold isostatic pressing and sintered at 1580°C in an ordinary sintering furnace under an air atmosphere. Hours, a single-phase alumina ceramic with in-situ growth of long columnar and plate-like crystals is obtained, and its typical structure is as follows figure 2 shown. Depend on figure 2 It can be seen that there are long columnar and plate-like crystals with a large area as shown by the arrows, and these abnormally grown grains form a certain degree of interpenetrating network structure, the lo...

Embodiment 3

[0029] Weigh the initial raw material 40g Al 2 o 3 and 0.04g Al powder into a nylon resin ball mill jar, use alumina grinding balls with a purity of 99%, add polyethylene glycol with a mass fraction of alumina powder 1% and 250mL alcohol, and perform wet ball milling in a high-energy ball mill for 12 hours . Put the mixture after high-energy ball milling into a 99 alumina ceramic crucible, dry it in an oven at 50°C to obtain a uniformly mixed powder, shape it by injection molding, and sinter at 1560°C for 3 hours in an ordinary sintering furnace under an air atmosphere , to obtain single-phase alumina ceramics with in-situ growth of long columnar and plate-like crystals, and its typical structure is as follows image 3 shown. Depend on image 3 It can be seen that a large area of ​​long columnar and plate-like crystals appears, as shown by the arrows, these irregularly grown grains form a certain degree of interpenetrating network structure, the longest grain aspect ratio ...

Abstract

A preparation method of an in-situ self-toughening alumina ceramic includes the following specific steps of the process: uniformly mixing initial raw materials of nano-aluminum and alumina with high purity; drying and grinding the mixed slurry into powders; forming the obtained powders into a green body; sintering the green body directly in a common air sintering oven to obtain ceramic material. The method is characterized in that: alumina ceramics which are equipped with in-situ growth long columnar and platelet grains can be produced; the process is hopeful to both reserve obvious tougheningand reinforcement effects of traditional fibers and whiskers and directly solve the difficulties brought by the fibers, the whiskers and carbon nano-tubes on the using process. Amorphous promoters ofSiO2, TiO2, La2O3, CAS (CaO-Al2O3-SiO2, etc. are not needed to be added. A final aluminum oxide product only contains single alumina phase and has the advantages of high density, high purity and hightoughness.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of ceramic materials, and in particular provides a preparation method of in-situ self-toughening alumina ceramics. Background technique [0002] Alumina ceramic materials have excellent mechanical and electrical properties, and low manufacturing cost, and are currently the most widely used advanced ceramic materials. Alumina precision ceramic materials with a bending strength of 700-1000Mpa can be prepared by using high-purity submicron alumina ultrafine powder. However, the fracture toughness of this material is very low, usually only 3-4Mpa·m1 / 2. Therefore, improving the fracture toughness of alumina ceramics has always been the goal that ceramic material workers expect and strive for. [0003] There are generally four methods for ceramic toughening: dispersion toughening, phase transformation toughening, fiber and whisker toughening, and the recently developed carbon nanotube toughening. ...
