Abstract

The invention relates to a method used for preparing a AgSbTe2 thermoelectric material. The method comprises following steps: 1) material preparation, wherein silver telluride and antimony telluride are taken as main raw materials, trace elemental tellurium is taken as a thermoelectric performance regulating composition, and silver telluride, antimony telluride, and elemental tellurium are weighed at a molar ratio of (0.9-1.1)(0.9-1.1):x as reaction raw materials, and x ranges from 0 to 0.04; 2) high energy ball milling, wherein the raw materials disclosed in step 1) are subjected to high energy ball milling in inert gas protection atmosphere so as to obtain single-phase AgSbTe2 powder; and 3) spark plasma sintering, wherein the single-phase AgSbTe2 powder is subjected to spark plasma sintering so as to obtain the compact AgSbTe2 thermoelectric material. The raw materials are stable in the air; oxidation is not easily caused; the whole technology is simple and controllable; preparation cost is low; repeatability is high; density of the prepared AgSbTe2 block material is high; phase is pure; and thermoelectric performance is excellent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of new energy materials, and in particular relates to a method for preparing silver antimony telluride thermoelectric materials. Background technique [0002] Thermoelectric power generation technology is a fully static power generation technology. It realizes direct conversion between thermal energy and electrical energy through the thermoelectric effect (Seebeck effect) of thermoelectric materials. Thermoelectric power generation devices usually have the advantages of simple equipment structure, low noise, no wear, no leakage, and high long-term reliability. The conversion efficiency of thermoelectric devices depends on the performance figure of merit ZT of thermoelectric materials (the characteristic parameter of comprehensive thermoelectric performance of materials) and the temperature difference of the system. The current commercial medium-temperature thermoelectric material is lead telluride. Due to the toxic...
