Problems solved by technology

But the ZrO prepared by these methods 2 Most aerogels are powders, which are mainly used as catalysts and catalyst supports. The small amount of blocks prepared are also not characterized by the thermal and mechanical properties of the samples due to low structural strength and poor repeatability of the preparation process.
Currently preparing ZrO 2 The most widely used raw material for airgel is zirconium alkoxide. Zirconium alkoxide is not only difficult to obtain and expensive, but also because of its toxicity, it is easy to cause harm to the human body during the application process, and its hydrolysis rate is very fast. Sol-gel The glue process is not easy to control

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of blocky ZrO2 aerogel. According to the preparation method, ZrO2 aerogel is prepared from zirconium inorganic salt by means of combination of the anion exchange technique and the sol-gel technique and by using epoxides as gel accelerators, and the blocky ZrO2 aerogel which is high in strength, low in density and low in heat conductivity coefficient is prepared by adding chelants, dispersing agents, drying controlling agents and the like to adjust uniformity of gel networks and pore structures, using the gel aging technique to improve and reinforce gel network frame strength and combining the high-temperature supercritical drying technique. The method is used for preparing the high-performance blocky ZrO2 aerogel from the cheap zirconium inorganic salt which is harmless to human bodies, so that the blocky ZrO2 aerogel has wide application prospect in the field of high-temperature thermal-insulation materials.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of inorganic material preparation and sol-gel method, and specifically relates to a method of preparing zirconia (ZrO 2 ) method of bulk airgel, so as to realize its application in high temperature insulation materials. Background technique [0002] Airgel is the solid with the smallest density in the world. It has a three-dimensional nano-skeleton structure and nano-scale pores. The porosity can reach 99.8%, and the specific surface area can reach 1000m 2 / g, the minimum apparent density can reach 2Kg / m 3 . The unique structure of airgel determines that it has extremely low thermal conductivity (as low as 0.013W / (m K) at room temperature), and airgel also has many advantages such as high adsorption and low refractive index, so in Optics, electricity, heat insulation, environmental protection, catalysis and other fields have broad application prospects. [0003] The most common aerogels are SiO 2 Aeroge...
