Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the field of fiber aerogel preparation, and particularly relates to a novel zero-convection high-heat-insulation SiBN fiber aerogel and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Aerogel thermal insulation materials such as Fe2O3, Al2O3 and SiO2 have been widely used in the fields of aerospace, ship, oil and gas transportation, building thermal insulation and the like due to their high thermal insulation efficiency, temperature resistance, extremely low density, high porosity, specific surface area, low thermal and acoustic conductivity and the like. However, the aerogel thermal insulation materials have many problems in use, such as shape instability, easy collapse or deformation, poor stability at high temperature, easy pyrolysis, and the like. In addition, the porous structure of the aerogel material is a key factor affecting the thermal insulation performance and mechanical properties of the aerogel material. However, how to construct a suitable porous structure to obtain an aerogel material with high thermal insulation performance and certain mechanical properties has been a focus of researchers.

[0003] Sani et al. (Sani E, Mercatelli L, Sans J L, et al. Porous and dense hafnium and zirconium ultra-high temperature ceramics for solar receivers[J]. Optical Materials, 2013, 36(2): 163-168.) prepared porous ZrB2, HfC and HfB2 ceramics by partial sintering, and the porosities of the ceramics were 13%, 33% and 39% respectively, and the ceramics had good high-temperature oxidation resistance and mechanical properties. However, the porosities of the obtained porous ultra-high temperature ceramics were less than 50%, which limited the thermal insulation performance of the ceramics.

[0004] Chinese patent “Preparation method of silica aerogel for thermal insulation” (application number: CNCN201410085084.3, authorization number: CN103864081B, publication date: 2015.07.15) discloses a preparation method of silica aerogel for thermal insulation. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, preparing liquid water glass with a modifier; and then, reacting the liquid water glass with concentrated sulfuric acid to obtain the aerogel. The SiO2 particles of the aerogel are uniform and small, and the particles form a through hole structure. However, air convection occurs in the process of thermal insulation, which is not conducive to the thermal insulation performance of the aerogel.

[0005] Chinese patent "High-efficiency heat-insulating aerogel composite board and preparation method thereof" (Application No. CN201410779326.9, Authorization No. CN104496401B, Publication Date: 2016.09.14) discloses a high-efficiency heat-insulating aerogel composite board and a preparation method thereof. First, SiO2 sol is prepared, and then the sol is vacuum siphoned into a fiber felt to obtain an aerogel composite board. The aerogel composite board relies on the fiber felt to have good mechanical properties, but the fiber felt has a large density, which is not conducive to its heat-insulating performance, and the interface between the fiber felt and the SiO2 sol has a weak bonding, which may cause powder separation.

[0006] Chinese patent "Sound and heat-insulating aerogel foam composite material and preparation method thereof" (Application No. CN201711387572.X, Authorization No. CN108033764B, Publication Date: 2020.08.25) discloses a sound and heat-insulating aerogel foam composite material and a preparation method thereof. First, a sol and a gelatin solution are prepared, and then a surfactant and a moisture-proof agent are added to obtain an aerogel foam composite material. The process is simple, the raw materials are inexpensive, and the aerogel foam composite material can be prepared on a large scale. However, the aerogel foam composite material has a low porosity and a low mechanical property, which reduces the heat-insulating effect.

[0007] Chinese patent "Heat-insulating aerogel composite material and application thereof in sensor shell" (Application No. CN202310490032.3, Authorization No. CN116606481B, Publication Date: 2023.11.28) discloses a heat-insulating aerogel composite material and an application thereof in a sensor shell. First, a silicon source cellulose mixed solution is prepared, and then a heat-insulating aerogel composite material containing a hydrophobic wear-resistant and high-toughness shrinkage-resistant additive is prepared, which improves the service life of the aerogel. However, the organic matter is bonded to the aerogel skeleton, which has a high material density, reduces the use temperature and the heat-insulating effect of the aerogel. SUMMARY

[0047] Example 1

[0048] 0.04g of polyoxyethylene powder was dissolved in a mixed solution of 4g of ethanol and 2g of dilute nitric acid, 0.31g of boric acid was added and stirred for 0.5h, and finally 2.5g of ethyl silicate and 2.9g of methyl triethoxysilane were added to obtain a PBSO shell spinning solution; 9g of boric acid was dissolved in 33mL of 75℃ deionized water to obtain a hot boric acid solution, which was heated to 95℃, 3g of melamine, 30g of paraffin and 25g of polyvinyl alcohol were added and stirred for 2h to obtain an inner core spinning solution.

[0049] The spinning solution obtained in step 1 was placed in a propulsion pump, the spinning voltage was adjusted to 20kv, the receiving distance was 18cm, the spinning temperature was 25℃, the humidity was 30%, the shell layer propulsion pump speed was 0.2mL / h, and the core layer propulsion pump speed was 0.15mL / h, and the electrospinning obtained the precursor fiber.

[0050] Mix 2.27 g methyl triethoxysilane, 2.27 g styrene, 0.01 g azobisisobutyronitrile under ultrasonic at 40 Hz for 5 min, add 45.3 mL hydrochloric acid solution, stir at 250 rpm for 1 h, add NH3·H2O to adjust the pH value to 10, reduce the stirring rate to 150 rpm and react for 50 min, pass nitrogen to heat to 75℃ and polymerize for 1 h, centrifuge the above mixture at 4000 rpm for 15 min, wash with ethanol to obtain a core-shell powder, disperse in 10 mL deionized water, add 2 g boric acid, 2 g melamine, 28.5 mL ethanol, 5 mL hydrochloric acid,

[0051] Cut the hollow precursor fiber prepared in step 2, add to the nanosol prepared in step 3, disperse under ultrasonic at 40 Hz for 1 h, add NH3·H2O, adjust the pH value to neutral, freeze at -40℃ for 12 h, dry at -40℃ under vacuum at 20 Pa for 48 h, and obtain a nanohollow porous aerogel containing a three-dimensional network structure.

[0052] Step 4: The hollow porous aerogel prepared in step 4 is calcined in steps, heat at 400℃ in air for 3 h, and calcine at 900℃ in nitrogen for 3 h, to obtain a hollow porous SiBN fiber aerogel.

[0053] Figure 1 Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional morphology of the new zero-convection high-thermal-insulation SiBN fiber aerogel prepared in Example 1. From the figure, it can be seen that the fiber is successfully crosslinked to form a three-dimensional structure after aerogel treatment, and the interface between the two is tight. Figure 1

[0054] Table 1 is a comparison of the thermal insulation performance of Example 1 with SiOC aerogel and BN aerogel. From Table 1, it can be seen that the SiOC aerogel has the largest density and the best compressive strength due to the presence of C and O, but has the smallest specific surface area and the highest thermal conductivity, resulting in poor thermal insulation performance. The specific surface area of the BN aerogel increases, the thermal conductivity decreases, the thermal insulation performance is good, and the density decreases, but the weak bonding of the material leads to the worst compressive strength. Example 1 improves the mechanical properties of the aerogel structure by fiber reinforcement, and the hollow structure of the fiber combined with the aerogel forms a hollow porous structure, which reduces the density of the material and increases the specific surface area, resulting in the smallest thermal conductivity of the material and excellent thermal insulation performance.
