[0003] The method for preparing spherical rhenium powder has following several kinds at present: 1. first prepare ammonium rhenate powder particle with spray milling method, carry out reduction to obtain rhenium powder, then carry out the process of plasma spheroidization, but the rhenium powder particle size that this process makes is small , the particles are usually below 10 μm, and the particle size of the spherical powder after spheroidization is small, which is difficult to apply in the field of 3D printing; 2. The rhenium powder is prepared by reducing large particles of ammonium rhenate, and the irregular rhenium powder particles are subjected to plasma ball after grinding Chemical production of spherical rhenium powder, this method has many defects such as hollows and pores in the large particles of spherical rhenium powder, which seriously affects the compactness of the powder.
The disadvantage of the above method is that due to the large number of voids in the rhenium powder raw material particles, in the plasma spheroidization process, the rhenium powder particle raw material enters the high-temperature plasma torch area from the powder feeder, and the metal particles absorb heat and melt under the action of the surface tension of the metal liquid. form a sphere
The time for rhenium powder particles to pass through the high-temperature plasma area is only tens of milliseconds, and the heat absorbed by rhenium powder can only melt rhenium powder particles below 10 microns, which is not enough to completely melt the inside of large rhenium powder particles to eliminate internal gas or fill internal voids After the surface layer of the particles is melted, a small amount of metal liquid is formed to cover the particles to form a spherical shape under the action of surface tension. After cooling, spherical rhenium powder is obtained, but the voids and pores still exist.
The current plasma spheroidization equipment is usually equipped with a multi-stage powder collection system. The cooling gas flows from the first-stage powder collection tank to the last-stage powder collection tank. Setting the cooling gas flow rate according to the particle size (D50) of most powders will inevitably lead to The small-particle powder is too stressed to deposit in the first-stage collection tank, but is carried by the carrier gas to the second-stage or third-stage powder collection tank or pipeline. The small-particle powder has strong adsorption performance and small amount, and usually adheres to the In the inner wall of the pipeline, it cannot be effectively recovered, resulting in a low yield of spherical powder
