Embodiment 1

[0049] Mix 1000 grams of deionized water, 160 grams of acrylamide, and 4 grams of N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide to prepare a premix. 100 grams of zirconia powder was used as a raw material, mixed with 40 ml of premixed solution, and ball milled for 24 hours to obtain a low viscosity (<1 Pa·s) zirconia ceramic slurry. Add an appropriate amount of catalyst tetramethylethylenediamine and initiator ammonium persulfate into the slurry, mix well and pour into the feed tank; turn the feed handle to feed slowly, keep the pressure for 2 minutes, and wait for the slurry to solidify for another 7 minutes After demoulding, the inner hole diameter of the green body is 0.136mm measured after drying, and sintered at 1500°C for 2 hours, and the measured inner hole diameter is 0.121mm, which meets the accuracy requirements of the pin green body. After the green body is processed by a precision grinding machine, the dimensional accuracy and various basic properties of the obtained pin products me...

Abstract

The invention discloses a molding method and device for a zirconia ceramic ferrule for an optical fiber connector, belonging to the field of preparation of ceramic devices. The method is to make a premixed liquid from an organic monomer, a cross-linking agent and deionized water, then add ceramic powder, add a catalyst and an initiator to the slurry after ball milling, inject it into a mold cavity through a molding device, and form a green body Sintered after drying. The deviation of the punch in the forming device involved in the present invention is less than 5 μm during the running process along the guide rail, so that the ceramic slurry can be filled and solidified at normal temperature and pressure, and the obtained ceramic green body is uniform and dense, and the sintered body has excellent performance . In particular, the viscosity of the slurry is very low (<1Pa·s), and there is no lateral force on the microneedles at the front end of the punch during filling and curing, and it will not damage the microneedles of the punch, nor will it cause deflection of the microneedles. shift. The method has low requirements on molds and equipment, and can form a zirconia ceramic ferrule body for an optical fiber connector that meets the requirements of dimensional accuracy in near-net dimensions.
