TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of powder metallurgy, in particular to a kind of ultrafine high uniformity W base solid solution powder and preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Tungsten has important applications in aerospace, nuclear power and electronics due to its high melting point, high strength and excellent thermal shock resistance. To further improve the brittleness and processing performance of pure tungsten at low temperature, studies have attempted to form tungsten-based solid solution alloys by adding elements such as rhenium (Re) or molybdenum (Mo), which can form body-centered cubic structure solid solution (W-Re / W-Mo). This alloying not only significantly improves the low temperature brittleness of pure tungsten, effectively reduces its DBTT, and improves its plasticity and processing performance at medium and low temperatures, but also balances the high temperature strength of the material, reduces the recrystallization temperature, and enhances the creep resistance and long-term stability at high temperatures while maintaining the high melting point and excellent heat resistance of the tungsten matrix.
[0003] Currently, W-based solid solution powders are mostly prepared using powder metallurgy processes, in which the properties of the powder determine the overall performance of the material. There are various methods for preparing ultrafine / nano tungsten alloy powders, including high-energy ball milling, hydrogen reduction, sol-gel, spray drying, and chemical vapor deposition. High-energy ball milling can achieve mechanical alloying, but the prepared powder has a coarse particle size and poor composition uniformity. In traditional hydrogen reduction processes, gas phase chemical transport (CVT) often occurs, leading to particle coarsening and uneven particle size distribution. Although many researchers have optimized the process, changed the gas flow direction, and other strategies to effectively alleviate the CVT problem to varying degrees, it is difficult to use for large-scale production. Wet chemical methods such as sol-gel or spray drying can obtain precursor with uniform composition, but the process steps are complicated, the raw material cost is high, and it is difficult to meet the demand for large-scale continuous production.
[0004] Therefore, the present application is proposed. SUMMARY

[0022] The first aspect of the present application provides a preparation method of an ultrafine high-uniformity W-based solid solution powder, comprising the following steps: (a) mixing tungsten-containing oxide, rhenium-containing oxide and / or molybdenum-containing oxide, and a reducing agent to obtain a mixed raw material; (b) performing reduction treatment on the mixed raw material to obtain the ultrafine high-uniformity W-based solid solution powder; wherein the reduction treatment comprises a first stage and a second stage, and the treatment temperature of the second stage is higher than that of the first stage.
[0023] The present application proposes a preparation method of an ultrafine high-uniformity W-based solid solution powder. The preparation method of the ultrafine high-uniformity W-based solid solution powder exhibits significant advantages in cost control, powder performance, and industrial application, etc. by optimizing raw material selection and process design. The core is to use low-cost raw materials combined with a short-flow reduction process: tungsten oxide and rhenium oxide or molybdenum oxide first form a composite oxide during the holding process, and then the composite oxide is reduced, and finally an ultrafine W-based solid solution powder with a particle size of 100-500 nm is obtained.

Preferably, the rotation speed of ball milling is 100-500 r / min, for example, can be 100 r / min, 150 r / min, 200 r / min, 250 r / min, 300 r / min, 350 r / min, 400 r / min, 450 r / min, 500 r / min, etc.; the ball milling time is 10-40 h, for example, can be 10 h, 15 h, 20 h, 25 h, 30 h, 35 h, 40 h, etc. Preferably, the mass ratio of the grinding ball to the sum of the tungsten oxide-containing, the rhenium oxide-containing, and / or molybdenum oxide-containing, and the reducing agent is 3:1-10:1, for example, can be 3:1, 4:1, 5:1, 6:1, 7:1, 8:1, 9:1, 10:1, etc.
[0028] In some preferred embodiments, after step (a), the mixed raw materials before being subjected to the reduction treatment are subjected to pressing to obtain a powder compact. Preferably, the pressing mode is preferably cold isostatic pressing, and the pressure is 10-100 MPa, for example, can be 10 MPa, 20 MPa, 30 MPa, 40 MPa, 50 MPa, 60 MPa, 70 MPa, 80 MPa, 90 MPa, 100 MPa, etc.
[0029] In some preferred embodiments, the first stage comprises: heating up to 500-800℃, for example, 500℃, 550℃, 600℃, 650℃, 700℃, 750℃, 800℃, etc., at a rate of 5-10℃ / min, for example, 5℃ / min, 6℃ / min, 7℃ / min, 8℃ / min, 9℃ / min, 10℃ / min, etc., and holding for 0.5-1h, for example, 30min, 40min, 50min, 60min, etc.

[0041] Example 5 This example provides a superfine high-uniformity W-based solid solution powder, which is a superfine W-10 wt.% Re-10 wt.% Mo solid solution powder, and the difference between the preparation process thereof and that of Example 5 is that: MoO2, WO 2.9 , ReO3 are used as raw materials, and glucose is used as a reducing agent, and the mass ratio of WO 2.9 : ReO3: MoO2: glucose is 8.02: 1: 1.06: 4. In step (2), a reduction reaction is performed in an argon atmosphere: first, the temperature is raised to 800°C at a rate of 10°C / min, and held for 0.5 h; then the temperature is raised to 850°C, and held for 3 h, and then cooled to room temperature, to obtain a superfine W-Re-Mo solid solution powder.
[0042] Example 6 This example provides a superfine high-uniformity W-based solid solution powder, which is a superfine W-10 wt.% Re-10 wt.% Mo solid solution powder, and the difference between the preparation process thereof and that of Example 5 is that: In step (2), a reduction reaction is performed in an argon atmosphere: first, the temperature is raised to 800°C at a rate of 10°C / min, and held for 0.5 h; then the temperature is raised to 825°C, and held for 3 h, and then cooled to room temperature.
[0043] Example 7 This example provides a superfine high-uniformity W-based solid solution powder, which is a superfine W-10 wt.% Re-10 wt.% Mo solid solution powder, and the difference between the preparation process thereof and that of Example 5 is that: In step (2), a reduction reaction is performed in an argon atmosphere: first, the temperature is raised to 800°C at a rate of 10°C / min, and held for 0.5 h; then the temperature is raised to 1250°C, and held for 3 h, and then cooled to room temperature.
[0044] Comparative Example 1 This comparative example provides a superfine high-uniformity W-based solid solution powder, and the difference between the preparation process thereof and that of Example 5 is that: In step (2), a reduction reaction is performed in an argon atmosphere: the temperature is directly raised to 850°C, and held for 3.5 h, and then cooled to room temperature.
[0045] Test Example Test Method: The phase composition of the sample was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD, D8 Advance, Bruker) in the range of 20°-90° 2θ diffraction angle at a scanning rate of 2° / min. The morphology and particle size distribution of the powder after reduction were observed by field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the average particle size was calculated by statistically analyzing more than 200 particles randomly selected from the SEM image using Nano-measurer image analysis software. The elemental composition and distribution were qualitatively and semi-quantitatively analyzed by SEM equipped with an energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS).
[0046] The total carbon, free carbon content and oxygen content in the powder were determined by a carbon and sulfur analyzer (CS600) and an oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen analyzer (TCH600), respectively. The test results are shown in Table 1.
[0047] Table 1
[0048] As can be seen from the data in Table 1, the ultrafine W-based solid solution powder prepared in Examples 1-5 exhibits excellent chemical purity, with the oxygen content controlled between 0.23-0.48 wt.%, the total carbon content as low as 0.033-0.068 wt.%, and the free carbon residue extremely low (as low as 0.019 wt.%), indicating that the staged reduction process can efficiently reduce the oxides and effectively inhibit the carbon residue, ensuring the high purity of the powder. Among them, Example 5 performs best in the control of oxygen and carbon impurities, fully proving that the optimization of process parameters can achieve extremely low impurity residue.
[0049] In comparison, Examples 6-7 deviate from the preferred range of the second stage reduction temperature, resulting in an increase in oxygen content, and a slight increase in total carbon and free carbon content, with the overall purity slightly inferior to Examples 1-5, reflecting that temperature control has a significant impact on impurity removal efficiency and the final quality of the powder. However, the overall purity is still significantly better than that of Comparative Example 1, indicating that even under non-optimal temperature conditions, the staged reduction process still has good impurity control ability.
[0050] In combination Figures 1-8It can be seen that the W-Re, W-Mo and multi-component W-based solid solution powders prepared in Examples 1-5 all exhibit typical "ultra-fine" and "high uniformity" characteristics. The SEM morphology shows that the particles are small and clear in outline, the average particle size of the samples is distributed in the range of 100-500 nm, the D50 of the samples is highly close to the average particle size, indicating that the particle size distribution is concentrated, the dispersion is small, and the particle size uniformity is excellent. On the basis of the optimized process, the W-Re-Mo solid solution powder prepared in Example 5 realizes the smallest average particle size of only 160.26 nm, which shows the best refinement effect. In contrast, the average particle sizes of Examples 6-7 increase to 325.35 nm and 334.08 nm respectively due to the deviation of temperature parameters from the preferred range, indicating that the process conditions have a significant effect on the particle size. The average particle size of Comparative Example 1 further significantly increases to 417.50 nm due to the absence of the low-temperature holding stage, fully highlighting the key role of this stage in inhibiting particle coarsening.
[0051] Finally, it should be noted that: the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit it; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing examples, those skilled in the art should understand that: it can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing examples, or make equivalent replacement for part or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
