Problems solved by technology

[0003] The ultra-fine high-purity hafnium powder requires a purity of up to 99.99%, a total metal impurity content of less than 100ppm, an oxygen content of less than 0.2%, and a particle size of less than 1μm. There is no literature report on the preparation technology, and it is difficult to meet the above requirements with ordinary experimental methods.
Therefore, the preparation of ultrafine high-purity hafnium powder is a very difficult and challenging work

Embodiment 1

[0030] Hafnium oxide with a purity of 99.9% and a particle size of less than 1mm and reducing agent powder CaH with a purity of more than 98.9% and a particle size of less than 2mm 2 , mixed evenly according to the molar ratio of 1:1, and loaded into a molybdenum crucible. Put the crucible into the reaction tank, cover it and then evacuate to 0.01Pa, wash with argon, heat to 800°C for 0.5 hours, and protect with argon. After constant temperature at 950°C for 5 hours, vacuumize at 800°C for 10 hours, then fill with argon to a slight positive pressure, and cool under the protection of argon. The reaction product was washed 15 times with 0.2M hydrochloric acid at room temperature, then washed once with deionized water at room temperature, and the resulting product was sieved to obtain hafnium powder. The quality of the final hafnium powder was: the purity of hafnium powder was 99.99%. The total content is less than 100ppm, the oxygen content is less than 0.2%, and the average pa...

Embodiment 2

[0032] Hafnium oxide with a purity greater than 99.9% (particle size less than 1mm) and a reducing agent LiH with a purity greater than 98.9% and a particle size less than 2mm are uniformly mixed at a molar ratio of 1:1 and loaded into a tantalum crucible. Put the crucible into the reaction tank, cover it, vacuumize to 0.03Pa, wash with argon, heat to 1400°C for 10 hours, and protect with argon. After constant temperature at 1400°C for 0.5 hours, vacuumize at 1400°C for 0.5 hours, then fill with argon to a slight positive pressure, and cool under the protection of argon. The reaction product was washed 15 times with 10M hydrochloric acid at 70°C, and then washed 15 times with deionized water at 100°C, and the product obtained was sieved to obtain hafnium powder. The content is 95ppm, the oxygen content is 0.2%, and the particle size is less than 0.8μm.

Embodiment 3

[0034] Mix hafnium oxide with a purity greater than 99.9% (particle size less than 1 mm) and Ca reducing agent powder with a purity greater than 99% and particle size less than 2 mm according to a molar ratio of 1:6, and put them into a hafnium crucible. Put the crucible into the reaction tank, cover it and then evacuate to 0.05Pa, wash with argon, heat to 1000°C for 10 hours, and protect with argon. After that, keep the temperature at 1000°C for 0.5 hours, then vacuumize for 10 hours, then fill it with argon to slightly positive pressure, and cool under the protection of argon. The reaction product was washed 10 times with 0.2M nitric acid at room temperature, then washed 15 times with 50°C deionized water, and the obtained product was sieved to obtain the final quality of metal hafnium: the purity of hafnium powder was 99.99%, and the metal impurities The total content is 80ppm, the oxygen content is less than 0.2%, and the average particle size is 0.9μm.
