Process for preparing nano silicon carbide by sol-gel method

Abstract

The invention provides a process for preparing nano silicon carbide by a sol-gel method, and relates to the technical field of preparation of the silicon carbide. The method comprises the following steps of S1, preparing silica by the sol-gel method; S2, homogeneously mixing the silica prepared in step S1 with a homogenizing agent, a carbon source and a combustion-supporting reducing agent; S3, conducting high-temperature reduction; S4, conducting dispersed grading. The process prepares the silica by the sol-gel method, and the prepared silica is well dispersed; the monodisperse silica, the homogenizing agent, the carbon source and the combustion-supporting reducing agent are homogeneously mixed, the high-temperature reduction is conducted, the prepared silica has good dispersibility and the problems of agglomeration and the like in the preparation process of the nano silicon carbide are solved. A reaction energy is activated by the combustion-supporting reducing agent, a reaction energy barrier is lowered, thereby lowering the reduction temperature of the silica, and convenience is provided for the prevention of the growth of high-temperature silicon carbide particles. Since the carbon source is uniformly mixed with the monodisperse silica, the reaction process is reduced, thereby contributing to an increase in a reduction reaction rate.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of the preparation of silicon carbide, in particular to a process for preparing nanometer silicon carbide by a sol-gel method. Background technique [0002] Silicon carbide has many excellent physical and chemical properties, such as high hardness, high strength, stable chemical properties, and good high temperature oxidation resistance. It also has good chemical compatibility with many metals and metal oxides. It can be used to prepare metal-based, ceramic-based and polymer-based composite materials, which can enhance, toughen and harden, and can also be used directly As an abrasive material or an abrasive tool prepared into a certain shape, it is used for surface grinding and polishing of metals, ceramics, glass, stone, etc. [0003] In recent years, with the development of the electronics and computer industries, the demand for monocrystalline silicon oxide wafers has increased. The processing of high-quality m...
