Problems solved by technology

In the field of neutron protection, the most widely used ceramic material for ceramic matrix composites is boron carbide ceramics; boron carbide ceramics are generally hard, but because the melting point of boron carbide is as high as 2350 ° C, the plasticity is poor, and the grain boundary movement resistance is very large, so pure carbonization The sintering conditions of boron ceramics are harsh, the preparation is difficult, and the process cost is extremely high
In order to prepare composite materials in which ceramics and polymers are combined into interpenetrating phases, boron carbide ceramics are selected to be prepared as porous foams, which leads to the inability to use hot-pressing sintering during calcination, which further leads to difficulties in sintering boron carbide ceramics

Abstract

The invention discloses an interpenetrating mullite / boron carbide foamed ceramic high-temperature-resistant neutron shielding material and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of preparation of foamed ceramic materials and polymer composite materials. The method comprises the following steps: preparing a precursor of the boron carbide foamed ceramic by adopting an organic foam impregnation method; a mullite structure is adopted to reinforce the boron carbide foamed ceramic; calcining the boron carbide foamed ceramic in a pressureless sintering mode under argon protection; filling pores of the foamed ceramic with liquid resin in a vacuum impregnation manner; and curing the liquid resin in the pores in situ in a thermocuring mode to finally form the novel neutron shielding material with the interpenetrating phase. The neutron shielding material prepared by the invention has the advantages of light weight, high temperature resistance, irradiation resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, high mechanical strength and good neutron shielding performance; meanwhile, on the premise of keeping the ceramic material as a high-temperature structural material, the ceramic material also has excellent characteristics of a polymer material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of foam ceramic materials and polymer composite materials, and in particular relates to an interpenetrating mullite / boron carbide foam ceramic high-temperature-resistant neutron shielding material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of national defense scientific research, radiation medicine and nuclear power industry, the performance requirements of radiation shielding materials are getting higher and higher. Because neutrons are uncharged and have strong penetrability, they will directly interact with the atomic nuclei in the material, and compared with α, β and γ rays of the same energy, they will cause greater damage to the human body, so the developed excellent Neutron shielding materials are particularly important. Over the years, my country has accumulated certain technology and experience in neutron radiation protection materials....
