Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ceramic slurries, and in particular relates to waste ceramic slurry and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Ceramics is a general term for pottery and porcelain. Common ceramic materials include clay, alumina, and kaolin. Ceramic materials are generally hard but less malleable. Besides being used in tableware and decoration, ceramics also play a vital role in the development of science and technology. Ceramic raw materials are extracted from clay, a plentiful natural resource. Clay is known for its toughness and plasticity. It can be molded when exposed to water at room temperature, carved when slightly dry, and ground when completely dry. Fired to 700 degrees Celsius, it becomes pottery capable of holding water. Fired to 1230 degrees Celsius, it becomes vitrified, becoming virtually non-absorbent, heat-resistant, and corrosion-resistant.

[0003] Ceramic materials are mostly oxides, nitrides, borides and carbides. Waste porcelain is inevitably produced during the preparation process. The composition of these waste porcelains generally fluctuates greatly and is difficult to reuse. They are generally treated by open-air stacking and shallow landfill.

[0004] Zisha teapots are uniquely Chinese handmade clay crafts, made from purple clay. There are three types of purple clay: purple clay, green clay, and red clay. The clay suitable for making purple clay teapots is often buried deep beneath rock layers, with thicknesses ranging from tens of centimeters to one meter. Petrographic analysis by the Shanghai Institute of Silicates indicates that purple clay is of the kaolin-quartz-mica type, with a high iron content, reaching a maximum of 8.83%. Zisha teapots are fired under high oxygen and high temperatures, typically using a flat flame at temperatures between 1100-1200°C. The finished teapot has a water absorption rate exceeding 2%.

[0005] Purple clay is fired in an oxidizing atmosphere, generally at a temperature of 1100°C. The firing temperature range is relatively narrow. Too high a firing temperature will cause cracking and lose the original properties of purple clay. Currently, there are few applications of using waste porcelain slurry in the firing of purple clay utensils. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a waste porcelain slurry and application thereof to solve the problems in the background technology.

[0007] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0008] A waste porcelain slurry is prepared by the following steps:

[0009] Step 1: Roll-pressing the waste porcelain into waste porcelain particles, adding the waste porcelain particles, deionized water, and alumina grinding balls into a ball mill at a mass ratio of 1:1.5-2:1, ball-milling at 180-200 r / min for 10-12 hours, filtering the material, drying at 80-100° C., and filtering through a 500-600 mesh sieve to obtain waste porcelain powder;

[0010] Step 2: Add silicon nitride, iron oxide, yttrium oxide, anhydrous ethanol and zirconium oxide grinding balls into a ball mill in a mass ratio of 18:1:1:40-50:20, ball mill at 200-300 r / min for 48 hours, filter the material, vacuum dry it at 60-80°C, and pass it through an 800-1000 sieve to obtain a mixed powder;

[0011] Step 3: Add the mixed powder, polyethylene glycol, polyvinyl butyral and anhydrous ethanol into a stirring tank, stir and mix at 75-80°C and a stirring speed of 1500-2000 r / min for 4-6 hours to obtain a precursor slurry; inject the precursor slurry into the curing agent solution through a spinneret with a diameter of 80-100 μm by wet spinning, filter and vacuum dry to obtain a silicon nitride fiber precursor;

[0012] Step 4: stirring and mixing tricalcium phosphate powder, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and deionized water, and ultrasonically dispersing them for 20-30 minutes to obtain an impregnation solution; then transferring the silicon nitride fiber precursor to the impregnation solution and immersing it for 15-30 seconds, filtering it and vacuum drying it at 550-580° C. for 20-30 minutes to obtain a coated silicon nitride fiber;

[0013] Step 5: Mixing the waste porcelain powder, coated silicon nitride fiber, mica powder, dispersant and deionized water to obtain a waste porcelain slurry.

[0014] Furthermore, in step 3, the curing agent solution includes boric acid and deionized water, and the usage ratio of boric acid to deionized water is 2.5-3 g:100 mL.

[0015] Furthermore, in step three, the usage ratio of the mixed powder, polyethylene glycol, polyvinyl butyral and anhydrous ethanol is 60-70 g: 15-18 g: 15-18 g: 320-340 g.

[0016] Furthermore, in step 4, the usage ratio of tricalcium phosphate powder, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and deionized water is 10g:1-2g:80-90g.

[0017] Furthermore, in step five, the usage ratio of waste porcelain powder, coated silicon nitride fiber, mica powder, dispersant and deionized water is 60-65 g: 15-25 g: 5-10 g: 3-5 g: 60-70 mL.

[0018] Furthermore, the dispersant is any one of sodium humate, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and sodium citrate.

[0019] Another object of the present invention is to provide an application of waste porcelain slurry for preparing purple sand mud.

[0020] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0021] The waste porcelain slurry of the present invention uses waste porcelain powder as the main material, which is conducive to the reuse of waste porcelain and reduces environmental pollution. Mica powder plays a role in regulating components such as aluminum oxide, and the dispersant helps to evenly disperse the components. Tricalcium phosphate powder is attached to the surface of the silicon nitride fiber precursor, and after high-temperature degreasing, a coated silicon nitride fiber is formed. The addition of the coated silicon nitride fiber helps the waste porcelain powder to be applied in purple clay. The coated silicon nitride fiber helps to increase the temperature range for firing purple clay and prevents the purple clay from cracking during firing. Silicon nitride has good heat resistance, tricalcium phosphate and yttrium oxide help to lower the melting point, thereby increasing the density and strength of the coated silicon nitride fiber, and iron oxide helps to improve its chroma, making it easy to apply in purple clay.
