Problems solved by technology

However, the preparation of the above-mentioned alumina-silica airgel needs to use organoaluminum compound (aluminum isopropoxide) as the aluminum source of the aerogel, and an organosilicon compound (tetraethyl silicate) as the silicon source of the aerogel, After four steps of sol-gel, aging, solvent replacement and supercritical drying, a large amount of flammable and explosive organic solvent-ethanol is used in the solvent replacement, and the waste solvent generated requires additional post-processing; the drying process requires It is also prepared by supercritical drying process with ethanol as the drying medium. Due to the flammable and explosive characteristics of ethanol, the explosion-proof requirements of the supercritical drying equipment system are high, and there are great safety hazards in the drying process, complicated process flow and dangerous The supercritical drying process makes the existing alumina-silica airgel thermal insulation composite materials more expensive to manufacture, which limits its large-scale application in the field of thermal insulation
Although there are also inorganic aluminum compounds as aluminum sources (Wu X, et al. Novel Al 2 o 3 – SiO 2 Composite aerogels with high specific surface area at elevated temperatures with different alumina / silica molar ratios prepared by a non-alkoxide sol-gel method, RSC Advances, 2016(6): 5611-5620.) or organic solvent replacement process (Yang J, et al. Facile one-stepprecursor-to-aerogel synthesis of silica-dopedalumina aerogels with high specific surface area at elevated temperatures, Journal of Porous Materials, 2017(24):889-897.) or non-supercritical drying process (Ji X, et al. Synthesis of analumina enriched Al 2 o 3 -SiO 2 aerogel: Reinforcement and ambient pressure drying, Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids, 2017(471): 160-168.) A research report on the preparation of alumina-silica aerogels, but their raw materials still cannot abandon organic aluminum or inorganic aluminum at the same time Compound as aluminum source, organosilicon source (orthosilicate as silicon source), ethanol (as solvent for preparing sol), organic solvent replacement and ethanol as drying medium supercritical drying process

[0055] (1) Preparation of fiber preforms

[0056] Use a mold to clamp and fix a certain quality of mullite fiber to form a fiber prefabricated part. Before clamping, the apparent density of the mullite fiber is 0.15g / cm 3 , and make the mullite fiber arrangement direction perpendicular to the heat flow direction during heat insulation to obtain the mullite fiber preform.

Embodiment 2~11

[0070] In the process of preparing the fiber preform in the first step of the present invention, the fiber type basically has no effect on the high temperature thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of the composite material, but the fiber apparent density has an important influence on the high temperature thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of the composite material. Appropriately increasing the apparent density can further reduce the high-temperature thermal conductivity of the material and improve the mechanical properties of the material, but the fiber type and apparent density have little effect on the temperature resistance of the material (heat treatment at 1500°C for 1800s, the thickness shrinkage rate is average less than 1.5%). In the second step of preparing the alumina-silica sol, the addition of the catalyst is to control the gelation time of the sol, which basically has no effect on the final performance of the material; the increase in the soli...
