Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of diamond wires, and in particular relates to a tungsten alloy wire and a product thereof and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Due to the advantages of low loss, low TTV, and high cutting efficiency, wire saw cutting is widely used in the cutting of hard and brittle materials such as monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon, and glass in the photovoltaic, semiconductor information, and LED industries. Wire saw cutting methods are divided into free mortar cutting and fixed abrasive cutting. Free mortar cutting uses bare metal wire to enter the slurry containing silicon carbide abrasives, and cuts by rolling extrusion grinding. This cutting method has problems such as low cutting efficiency and mortar pollution of the environment, and has gradually been replaced by fixed abrasive cutting methods. Fixed abrasive cutting wires are divided into electroplated diamond wire saws and resin diamond wire saws. Resin diamond wires have problems such as the loose bonding between the diamond abrasive and the wire core, and the diamond is easy to fall off during the cutting process. Therefore, the mainstream product on the market is electroplated diamond wire saws.

[0003] Electroplated diamond wire saw is a method of depositing diamond on a metal busbar by electroplating. According to the different metal busbars, it is divided into high-carbon steel diamond wire and tungsten alloy wire diamond wire. In order to reduce non-silicon costs and achieve grid parity, the photovoltaic industry will develop in the direction of thinning the electroplated diamond wire. The theoretical limit of the wire diameter of high-carbon steel diamond wire is about 30μm. Tungsten alloy wire has the advantages of high strength, high temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance. Tungsten alloy wire doped with rare earth elements has good processing performance, and the theoretical limit of the wire diameter is about 22μm, which makes up for the shortcomings of carbon steel wire in terms of wire diameter, tensile strength, and corrosion resistance.

[0004] On the one hand, the traditional method of refining tungsten alloy wire is to cover the surface of tungsten alloy wire with graphite emulsion by spraying, and then heat and dry it, so that a graphite layer with good lubrication performance is formed on the surface of the wire, which can allow the drawing process to continue. However, the differences in the selection of raw materials by different manufacturers lead to large differences in the particle size, suspension, viscosity and other aspects of the graphite emulsion. At the same time, the particle size of graphite powder in the fine wire graphite emulsion of most domestic manufacturers is >3μm. When the particle size of graphite powder is too large, when drawing 30-50μm fine wires, the lubricity of the graphite layer will decrease, increase mold loss and affect the yield of tungsten alloy wire. By using composite electroplating, a metal lubrication layer with fine crystallization, firmness and solid lubrication particles is electroplated on the surface of thick wire tungsten alloy wire, which can solve the problems of poor adhesion of traditional graphite layer and excessive graphite powder particle size, reduce mold loss and improve yield. However, metal tungsten is very active. Under oxygen-containing conditions, a dense black-blue passivation film is easily formed on the surface of tungsten alloy wire, which has high chemical stability. During electroplating, the presence of this passivation film usually results in a weak bond between the plated metal and the tungsten alloy busbar. On the other hand, when preparing diamond wire saws by composite electroplating, the metal tungsten alloy substrate and the electroplated nickel layer are also weakly bonded when electroplating with nickel sulfamate electroplating solution. Therefore, it is necessary to select appropriate pre-treatment methods and electroplating processes to solve the problem of adhesion of the electroplated layer on the surface of the tungsten substrate. Summary of the invention

[0008] The pre-plating layer is a metal chromium plating layer, and the single-side thickness is 0.1-1µm; the composite plating layer is a metal-based composite plating layer, and the single-side thickness is 0.1-5µm. Furthermore, the single-side thickness of the pre-plating layer is 0.1µm, 0.2µm, 0.3µm, 0.4µm, 0.5µm, 0.6µm, 0.7µm, 0.8µm, 0.9µm, 1µm, and all ranges and sub-ranges between the above values; The composite coating is composed of a metal-based composite coating and a solid lubricant. The metal-based composite coating is one or more of a copper-based composite coating, a tin-based composite coating, a lead-based composite coating, a zinc-based composite coating, a nickel-based composite coating, an iron-based composite coating, a cobalt-based composite coating, etc., and is preferably a copper-based composite coating. Metal copper has good thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity, and also has the characteristics of low hardness and good ductility. During the drawing process of the tungsten alloy wire, it can be deformed simultaneously with the wire.

[0009] The single-side thickness of the composite coating is 0.1µm, 0.5µm, 1µm, 1.5µm, 2µm, 2.5µm, 3µm, 3.5µm, 4µm, 4.5µm, 5µm and all ranges and sub-ranges between the above values. Within this coating thickness range, the tungsten alloy wire can be completely covered by the electroplating layer and has good drawing performance.

[0010] The content of the solid lubricant in the composite coating is 0.1-10wt%. Further, the content of the solid lubricant in the composite coating is 0.1wt%, 0.5wt%, 1wt%, 1.5wt%, 2wt%, 2.5wt%, 3wt%, 3.5wt%, 4wt%, 4.5wt%, 5wt%, 5.5wt%, 6wt%, 6.5wt%, 7wt%, 7.5wt%, 8wt%, 8.5wt%, 9wt%, 9.5wt%, 10wt% and all ranges and sub-ranges between the above values.

[0011] The particle size of the solid lubricant is 2-10 μm. For example, the particle size of the solid lubricant can be 2 μm, 3 μm, 4 μm, 5 μm, 6 μm, 7 μm, 8 μm, 9 μm, 10 μm and all ranges and sub-ranges between the above values. Within this particle size range, the solid particles can be uniformly dispersed in the plating solution.

[0012] The solid lubricant is composed of 0-100 wt% of metal compounds, 0-100 wt% of inorganic substances and 0-100 wt% of organic substances, wherein the metal compounds include one or more of metal oxides, metal halides, metal sulfides and metal selenides; the inorganic substances are one or more of graphite, graphite fluoride and hexagonal boron nitride; and the organic substances are one or more of polytetrafluoroethylene, polyimide, nylon, polyethylene and melamine urate.

[0013] Furthermore, the metal oxide is one or more of metal oxides selected from lead oxide, copper oxide, zinc oxide, tin oxide, molybdenum oxide, etc.; the metal sulfide is one or more of metal sulfides selected from molybdenum disulfide, tungsten disulfide, iron sulfide, chromium sulfide, etc.; the metal halide is one or more of metal halides selected from calcium fluoride, barium fluoride, lanthanum fluoride, etc.; the metal selenide is niobium diselenide; the inorganic solid lubricant is one or more of inorganic substances selected from graphite, graphite fluoride, hexagonal boron nitride, etc.; the organic solid lubricant is one or more of organic solid lubricants selected from polytetrafluoroethylene, polyimide, nylon, polyethylene, melamine urate, etc. Preferably, the solid lubricant is composed of 30-40 wt% of metal compound, 30-40 wt% of inorganic substance and 30-40 wt% of organic substance.

[0014] In some preferred embodiments, the solid lubricant is molybdenum disulfide. Molybdenum disulfide has a hexagonal layered structure similar to graphite, and each unit layer is composed of three superimposed plane layers of S-MO-S. The sulfur atoms are connected to the corresponding molybdenum atoms by strong covalent bonds, and surround the molybdenum in the center like a triangular prism. The distance between unit layers is 0.625nm, and the van der Waals force between adjacent layers is weak, which greatly reduces the shear force during the dislocation sliding between the layers. Therefore, molybdenum disulfide has very excellent solid lubrication properties. In addition, molybdenum disulfide has good corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity, and the operating temperature in the atmospheric environment can reach 350°C, so it can exist stably in the electroplating solution, and at the same time, it is composited with the metal ions in the plating solution and deposited on the tungsten alloy wire under the action of the electric field force.

[0015] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the aforementioned tungsten alloy wire, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Pre-treat the tungsten alloy busbar; Step 2: electroplating, placing the tungsten alloy busbar obtained in step 1 in an electroplating tank to electroplate a pre-plating layer, and then electroplating a composite coating layer in the electroplating tank. After the electroplating is completed, the tungsten alloy wire is washed and soap-soaked, and then the wire is collected on the I-shaped wheel; Step 3: Drawing, install the tungsten alloy wire obtained in step 2 at the wire pay-off end of the water tank drawing machine, and the tungsten alloy wire reaches the required wire diameter after multiple drawing passes. Preferably, the outlet die in the drawing machine uses a natural diamond die, which can improve the surface quality of the tungsten wire and reduce the ovality of the tungsten wire.

[0016] The detailed steps of the pre-treatment in step 1 are: Step A, place the tungsten alloy busbar in an ultrasonic electrolytic alkaline washing tank for cleaning, the alkaline solution composition is one or more of sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, and trisodium phosphate, the alkaline solution concentration is 50-150g / L, the temperature is 50-80°C, the degreasing time is 1-5s, and the ultrasonic frequency is 10-100Hz. The tungsten alloy busbar has good corrosion resistance. It is insoluble in strong acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid at room temperature, and is only soluble in a mixed acid of hydrofluoric acid and concentrated nitric acid. After the tungsten alloy busbar is oxidized, the tungsten oxide formed on the surface is easily soluble in alkaline solution. Usually, after the tungsten alloy busbar is drawn with graphite emulsion, graphite and organic solvents may still remain on the surface. Therefore, it is necessary to remove impurities such as oxide scale, graphite emulsion, and organic solvents remaining on the surface of the tungsten alloy busbar by anodic oxidation of the tungsten wire and dissolving it in alkaline solution.

[0017] Step B, two-stage water washing, using countercurrent water washing method, after degreasing, the tungsten alloy busbar first enters the hot water washing tank, the water temperature is 50-70℃, the time is 1-5S, and then passes through the cold water washing tank; Step C, use concentrated hydrochloric acid or hydrofluoric acid to activate the surface of the tungsten alloy busbar, the acid temperature is 10-30°C, the time is 1-5S, and then activated with water washing. The activation mechanism in the pretreatment and electroplating process of the present invention is: hydrofluoric acid is highly corrosive, and the chemical strong corrosion of hydrofluoric acid removes the passivation film on the surface of the tungsten wire, and the surface of the tungsten wire is coarsened. There are gaps between the grains of the tungsten wire, and some are in the shape of barbs. When electroplating on such a surface, the chromium layer will firmly lock itself on the surface of the tungsten wire, thereby enhancing the bonding force between the chromium plating layer and the tungsten alloy wire. At the same time, metallic chromium and tungsten have the same body-centered cubic structure and similar thermal expansion coefficients, so chromium is selected as the pre-plating layer. When preparing a diamond wire saw, impact nickel is used for pre-plating. During the pre-plating process, hydrogen with strong reducing properties is precipitated on the cathode wire body, which plays a role in further activating the metal surface.

[0018] The process of electroplating the pre-plating layer in step 2 is: the current density is 4-20A / dm 2 , the electroplating time is 1-30S; the anode is a lead-tin alloy or a platinum-iridium anode; the electroplating solution composition is chromic anhydride: 100-400g / L, sulfuric acid 1-5g / L, La 3+ : 0.1-2.5g / L.

[0019] The process of electroplating the composite coating in step 2 is as follows: the electroplating solution composition is 250g / L of one or more of metal oxides, metal halides, metal sulfides, metal selenides, 100g / L of sulfuric acid, and 0.1-100g / L of solid lubricant; the current density is 8-10A / dm 2 The solid lubricant has a concentration of 0.1-100 g / L in the electroplating solution. For example, the solid lubricant concentration is 10 g / L, 20 g / L, 30 g / L, 40 g / L, 50 g / L, 60 g / L, 70 g / L, 80 g / L, 90 g / L, 100 g / L and all ranges and sub-ranges between the above values. Within this concentration range, the lubricating coating has a high particle content and good lubricity.

[0020] The present invention also provides a diamond wire saw made of the aforementioned tungsten alloy wire and a preparation method thereof, wherein the aforementioned tungsten alloy wire is subjected to alkali washing and acid washing pre-treatment according to the prior art, and after being primed with impact nickel, the diamond wire saw is prepared by composite electroplating. Preferably, the acid washing uses one or more of aminosulfonic acid, hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid. The components of the impact nickel plating solution are nickel chloride: 200-300g / L, hydrochloric acid: 100-200ml / L, and the current density is 1-15A / dm 2 , the plating time is 5-15s, and the plating solution temperature is 15-35℃.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: on the one hand, the tungsten alloy busbar is etched by concentrated hydrochloric acid or hydrofluoric acid, and a pre-plating layer is added at the same time, thereby enhancing the bonding strength between the electroplating layer and the tungsten alloy wire. At the same time, a lubricating composite plating layer is prepared by adding solid lubricating particles to the plating solution for composite electroplating, thereby effectively reducing the mold loss during the drawing process and saving costs; on the other hand, the pre-plating process of nickel sulfamate is changed, and impact nickel is used as the pre-plating bottom layer of the diamond wire, thereby enhancing the bonding strength between the grinding composite plating layer and the diamond wire busbar, thereby preventing problems such as wire breakage or silicon wafer scratches caused by the shedding of the grinding composite plating layer during the cutting process of the diamond wire.

[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, a method for preparing a tungsten alloy wire and a diamond wire comprises the following steps: Step 1: Pre-treatment of tungsten alloy busbar.

[0026] The pre-treatment step in step one is to put the tungsten alloy busbar from the wire-releasing end into the ultrasonic electrolysis alkaline washing tank, and then enter the electroplating tank after three steps of water washing, acid washing and water washing. The tungsten alloy busbar has good corrosion resistance. It is insoluble in strong acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid at room temperature. It is only soluble in a mixed acid of hydrofluoric acid and concentrated nitric acid. After the tungsten alloy busbar is oxidized, the tungsten oxide formed on the surface is easily soluble in alkaline solution. Usually, after the tungsten alloy busbar is drawn with graphite emulsion, graphite and organic solvents may still remain on the surface. Therefore, it is necessary to remove impurities such as oxide scale, graphite emulsion and organic solvents remaining on the surface of the tungsten alloy busbar by anodic oxidation of the tungsten wire and dissolving it in alkaline solution. The water washing is a two-stage water washing method, which adopts a countercurrent water washing method. After the tungsten alloy busbar is electrolyzed, it first enters the hot water washing tank, then enters the acid washing activation tank after passing through the cold water washing tank, and is washed again with deionized water before entering the electroplating tank.

[0027] In some embodiments, the alkali solution composition is one or more of sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, and trisodium phosphate, the alkali solution concentration is 50-150g / L, the temperature is 50-80°C, the oil removal time is 1-5s, and the ultrasonic frequency is 10-100Hz; the water temperature of the washing tank after electrolytic cleaning is 50-70°C, and the time is 1-5S.

[0028] In some embodiments, the acid solution uses concentrated hydrochloric acid or hydrofluoric acid to activate the surface of the tungsten alloy wire, and the acid solution temperature is 10-30° C. and the time is 1-5S.

[0029] Step 2: Electroplating self-lubricating composite coating. After activated water washing, the tungsten alloy busbar enters the electroplating tank for pre-plating of the bottom metal coating, and then enters the electroplating tank for electroplating of the lubricating composite coating. After the electroplating is completed, the wire is washed, dried, and soap-soaked, and the servo motor is used to reel the wire onto the I-shaped wheel at a certain pitch.

[0030] In some embodiments, the impact chromium plating solution comprises chromic anhydride: 100-400 g / L, sulfuric acid 1-5 g / L, La 3+ :0.1-2.5g / L Current density is 4-20A / dm 2 The electroplating time is 1-30S, and the anode is a lead-tin alloy or a platinum-iridium anode.

[0031] In some preferred embodiments, the lubricating composite coating is a copper-based composite coating, and the solid lubricant is molybdenum disulfide. The plating solution contains 200-300 g / L copper sulfate and 100-200 g / L sulfuric acid, the temperature is 10-30°C, and the current density is 5-20 A / dm 2 The wire is dried in a heating furnace at a temperature of 200-300°C for 1-5 seconds. After the wire is soaked in soap, a lubricating film can be formed on the surface to prevent oxidation of the steel wire surface, which is beneficial for wire arrangement at the take-up end and subsequent drawing.

[0032] Step 3: Drawing, install the electroplated tungsten alloy wire on the wire pay-off end of the water tank drawing machine, and the alloy wire diameter reaches the required wire diameter after multiple die drawing; In some embodiments, the outlet mold is a natural diamond mold, which can improve the surface quality of the tungsten wire and reduce the ovality of the tungsten wire.

[0033] Furthermore, step 4 can be performed: the drawn tungsten alloy wire is subjected to alkali washing, water washing, and pickling pretreatment, and after impact nickel priming, a diamond wire saw is prepared by composite electroplating. Acid washing uses one or more of aminosulfonic acid, hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid. The components of the impact nickel plating solution are nickel chloride: 200-300g / L, hydrochloric acid: 100-200ml / L, and the current density is 1-15A / dm 2 The electroplating time is 5-15s, the electroplating solution temperature is 15-35°C, the single-side coating thickness is 0.1-1μm, and then a diamond wire saw is obtained.
