Silicon powder surface deoxidizing method

Abstract

The invention discloses a silicon powder surface deoxidizing method, and belongs to technical field of powder surface treatment. The silicon powder surface deoxidizing method is characterized by improving silicon powder surface wetting ability by adding a neutral solvent of absolute ethyl alcohol into hydrofluoric acid and controlling the proportion and the concentration of the absolute ethyl alcohol, and promoting H+, HF2- and H2F2 and the like to rapidly diffuse towards silicon atoms. The silicon powder deoxidizing technology includes: preparing needed deoxidizing liquid by using hydrogen fluoride (HF), the absolute ethyl alcohol and deionized water according to a proportion, placing the deoxidizing liquid in a water bath with a constant temperature from 25 DEG C to 60 DEG C, fetching out a proper amount of silicon powder to be processed, then placing the silicon powder into the deoxidizing liquid, ceaselessly stirring for 15-60 minutes, using deionized water to wash and filter the silicon powder for 3-8 times through a vacuum filter, drying the silicon powder at a temperature of 25-70 DEG C in a vacuum, and immediately sealing the silicon powder for preservation in the vacuum. The silicon powder surface deoxidizing method has the advantages of being high in deoxidizing efficiency, and simultaneously the deoxidizing liquid contains no hazardous substance such as sulfuric acid, causes no damage on a silicon substrate, and furthermore the powder after being processed is good in uniformity and dispersibility, simple in technology and easy to control.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of powder surface treatment and relates to the removal of oxygen on the surface of silicon powder. Background technique

[0002] As an indispensable basic raw material, silicon powder is widely used in powder metallurgy manufacturing, such as for sintering to prepare refractory alloys, ceramics, composite materials, etc. However, due to the high surface activity, silicon powder is easily oxidized, forming SiO on the surface of silicon particles 2 , SiO and other oxide films. Silicon oxide is relatively stable, and it is difficult to be reduced even in the high-temperature sintering process, which affects the quality of sintered materials. In addition, the oxide film on the surface will reduce the fluidity of silicon powder, which will easily lead to a decrease in the density of the material and have an adverse effect on the comprehensive mechanical properties of the material.
