Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of piezoelectric ceramics, and particularly relates to a high-power scene high-temperature piezoelectric ceramic and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Piezoelectric ceramics are a kind of functional materials for realizing mechanical energy and electrical energy coupling and conversion (transduction). They have very wide applications in advanced manufacturing, electronic information, energy detection and national defense, such as piezoelectric drivers, ultrasonic motors, deep well sound detection, transducers and vibration sensors, and piezoelectric ceramic materials are the sensitive elements and core components of the entire system. In practical applications, some parameters reflecting the performance of the materials are usually selected to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the materials. Common piezoelectric ceramic performance parameters mainly include piezoelectric constant, dielectric constant, mechanical quality factor Qm, dielectric loss tanδ, etc. High piezoelectric performance generally means that the main function of the system or device is more excellent; and low loss means that the performance stability of the device or system in long-term work.

[0003] According to performance characteristics, piezoelectric ceramics can be generally divided into two categories of "soft" and "hard". "Soft" piezoelectric ceramics have high piezoelectric performance, dielectric performance and electromechanical performance, and are mainly applied to sensors, medical imaging, filters, etc. "Hard" piezoelectric ceramics have high mechanical quality factor and low dielectric loss, and are the core functional materials of large power transducers, piezoelectric transformers, etc., and are widely used in sonar systems, ultrasonic detection, vibration control and other electromechanical conversion systems. In these applications, power piezoelectric modules need to generate large elastic strain under large electrical power to exert their piezoelectric effect, and then to convert electromechanical energy. Continuous large amplitude vibration leads to large internal friction and dielectric loss and generates a large amount of heat, which is easy to cause stress damage, fatigue damage and performance deterioration, which requires large power piezoelectric materials to have high mechanical quality factor Q m and low dielectric loss tanδ on the basis of ensuring good "soft" performance, and have excellent stable performance in alternating electric field and high temperature and high pressure environment.

[0004] Due to the harsh application environment of power type ceramics, large power piezoelectric ceramics require "soft and hard" performance such as high piezoelectric constant, high mechanical quality factor Q m , low loss, high Curie temperature, etc. Due to the influence of the ferroelectric domain of piezoelectric ceramics, these performances are generally in a mutually restrictive relationship, for example, high "soft" performance often corresponds to low "hard" performance and low Curie temperature. The comprehensive requirements of these performance indicators make the preparation of large power piezoelectric materials more difficult. SUMMARY

[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present application aims to provide a high-power high-temperature piezoelectric ceramic for a scene and a preparation method thereof, which solves the process problems existing in the material industrialization by controlling the composition of the material, overcomes the problem that high piezoelectric performance and high mechanical quality factor are difficult to be compatible, and obtains a high-power high-temperature piezoelectric ceramic with excellent comprehensive performance.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The present application provides a high-power high-temperature piezoelectric ceramic for a scene, wherein the high-temperature piezoelectric ceramic is a Mn element doped lead zirconate titanate-based piezoelectric ceramic; the lead zirconate titanate-based piezoelectric ceramic is a three-phase solid solution of Pb(Yb 1 / 2 Nb 1 / 2 )O3, PbZrO3 and PbTiO3.

[0008] The doping mode of the Mn element is metal oxide MnO2 doping or composite oxide Pb(Mn 1 / 3 Nb 2 / 3 )O3 doping.

[0009] In one embodiment, when the doping mode of the Mn element is metal oxide MnO2 doping, the molecular formula of the Mn element doped lead zirconate titanate-based piezoelectric ceramic is (1-x-y)Pb(Yb 1 / 2 Nb 1 / 2 )O3-yPbZrO3-xPbTiO3+zMnO2, wherein x is in the range of 0.1-0.6, y is in the range of 0.1-0.6, and z is in the range of 0.01-0.1.

[0010] In one embodiment, when the doping mode of the Mn element is composite oxide Pb(Mn 1 / 3 Nb 2 / 3 )O3 doping, the molecular formula of the Mn element doped lead zirconate titanate-based piezoelectric ceramic is (1-x-y-z)Pb(Yb 1 / 2 Nb 1 / 2 )O3-yPbZrO3-xPbTiO3+zPb(Mn 1 / 3 Nb 2 / 3 )O3, wherein x is in the range of 0.1-0.6, y is in the range of 0.1-0.6, and z is in the range of 0.01-0.2.

[0011] The present application also provides a preparation method of the high-power high-temperature piezoelectric ceramic for a scene, comprising the following steps:

[0012] S1: Prepare MnNb2O6 precursor powder or MnO2 and YbNbO4 precursor powder. The raw materials are prepared according to the molecular formula of Mn element doped lead zirconate titanate-based piezoelectric ceramics, and then ball-milled, dried and sieved in sequence to obtain a raw material mixture.

[0013] S2: The raw material mixture is pre-calcined and then cooled to room temperature, followed by grinding to obtain pre-calcined powder;

[0014] S3: The pre-fired powder is ball-milled, then dried, ground and sieved to obtain ceramic powder;

[0015] S4: The ceramic powder is pressed into a blank, and then the blank is subjected to pressureless closed sintering treatment to obtain the fired piezoelectric ceramic.

[0016] S5: Polish, silver-plated and polarized the fired piezoelectric ceramic in sequence to obtain high-temperature piezoelectric ceramic for high-power applications.

[0017] In one embodiment, when the Mn element originates from MnNb2O6 precursor powder, the Mn element doping mode in the lead zirconate titanate-based piezoelectric ceramic is the composite oxide Pb(Mn) 1 / 3 Nb 2 / 3 O3 doping;

[0018] When the Mn element originates from MnO2, the Mn element in the lead zirconate titanate-based piezoelectric ceramic is doped by the metal oxide MnO2 doping.

[0019] In one embodiment, the preparation process of the MnNb2O6 precursor powder in step S1 is as follows:

[0020] MnO2 and Nb2O5 were mixed evenly according to the stoichiometric ratio of MnNb2O6, and then ball-milled, dried, ground, and sieved in sequence. Finally, they were calcined at a temperature of 1000℃~1200℃ to obtain MnNb2O6 precursor powder.

[0021] In one embodiment, the preparation process of the YbNbO4 precursor powder in step S1 is as follows:

[0022] Yb2O3 and Nb2O5 were mixed evenly according to the stoichiometric ratio of YbNbO4, and then ball-milled, dried, ground, and sieved in sequence. Finally, they were calcined at a temperature of 1000℃~1100℃ to synthesize YbNbO4 precursor powder.

[0023] In one embodiment, the pre-firing process in S2 is as follows:

[0024] Preheat the temperature to 750℃~850℃ at a heating rate of 2~10℃ / min for 2~5 hours.

[0025] In one embodiment, the pressureless sealed sintering process in S4 is as follows:

[0026] The blank is embedded in homogeneous ceramic powder, placed on a zirconia plate, and then placed in an alumina sealed sagger. The temperature is raised to 1100-1300℃ at a heating rate of 2-5℃ / min, sintered for 3-5 hours, and then naturally cooled to room temperature with the furnace.

[0027] In one implementation, the polishing process in step S5 is as follows:

[0028] The upper and lower surfaces of the fired piezoelectric ceramics were polished with 600-2000 grit sandpaper, then polished with metallographic sandpaper to a thickness of 0.8-1.2 mm, followed by ultrasonic cleaning with deionized water and ethanol, and then dried.

[0029] The silver plating process is as follows:

[0030] The silver paste was evenly coated on the upper and lower surfaces of the polished and fired piezoelectric ceramic, and then placed in a resistance furnace. The temperature was maintained at 500℃~850℃ for 5min~60min, and then the furnace was allowed to cool naturally to room temperature.

[0031] The polarization process is as follows:

[0032] The silver-plated and fired piezoelectric ceramic is placed in silicone oil and polarized along the thickness direction using a DC or AC electric field; the polarization temperature is 90℃~150℃, the polarization voltage is 10kV / cm~50kV / cm, and the polarization voltage holding time is 10~60min.

[0033] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0034] This invention provides a high-temperature piezoelectric ceramic for high-power applications, which is a Mn-doped lead zirconate titanate-based piezoelectric ceramic; wherein the Mn doping method is either MnO2 metal oxide doping or Pb(Mn) composite oxide doping. 1 / 3Nb 2 / 3 O3 doping is designed to hard-dopat PYN-PZT high-temperature piezoelectric ceramics, increasing the mechanical quality factor and reducing losses. Specifically, due to Mn... 2+ / 3+ Replaced Ti 4+ / Zr 4+Excess negative charge appears in the crystal lattice. To maintain charge neutrality, oxygen vacancies are generated. These oxygen vacancies cause cell contraction, resulting in a "pinning effect," which makes domain walls difficult to move. This reduces losses caused by domain wall movement and increases the mechanical quality factor. Meanwhile, the introduction of Mn reduces piezoelectric properties. However, due to the high Curie temperature and high piezoelectric properties of the PYN-PZT system, Mn-doped lead zirconate titanate-based piezoelectric ceramics can maintain high Curie temperature and piezoelectric properties while improving the mechanical quality factor.

[0035] Furthermore, the metal oxide MnO2 and the composite oxide Pb(Mn) 1 / 3 Nb 2 / 3 O3-doped PYN-PZT-based piezoelectric ceramics exhibit high power performance and Curie temperatures, both exceeding 350℃. 33 The coercive field E of MnO2-doped PYN-PZT-based piezoelectric ceramics is above 250 pC / N. C Up to 25kV / cm, internal bias field E i Up to 5kV / cm, Q m The temperature can reach 1800°C, the vibration velocity can reach 0.8 m / s, and the loss change rate under strong alternating electric field is about 80%. Composite oxide Pb(Mn) 1 / 3 Nb 2 / 3 The coercive field E of O3-doped PYN-PZT-based piezoelectric ceramics C Up to 26kV / cm, internal bias field E i Up to 8.5kV / cm, Q m The vibration velocity can reach 1 m / s, and the loss change rate under a strong alternating electric field is only 30%. This indicates that Mn-doped PYN-PZT high-temperature piezoelectric ceramics are suitable for high-power applications under strong fields or strong drives. Furthermore, the above further demonstrates that the hard composite oxide Pb(Mn) 1 / 3 Nb 2 / 3 O3 doping exhibits superior high-power performance compared to metal oxide MnO2 doping. Therefore, this research provides some assistance for the design of high-power piezoelectric ceramics.

[0036] This invention also provides a method for preparing high-temperature piezoelectric ceramics for high-power applications. This method involves obtaining ceramic powder and then subjecting the powder to pressureless closed-circuit sintering to obtain the fired piezoelectric ceramic. Pressureless closed-circuit sintering means that no external pressure is applied to the blank during the sintering process, which helps reduce ceramic structural deformation or cracking caused by pressure. The closed-circuit design ensures the stability and consistency of the sintering environment, reducing interference from external factors (such as oxygen and moisture) on the sintering process. Conventional sintering processes may involve applying external pressure or using an open sintering environment, which may lead to inhomogeneity in the ceramic structure or contamination from external factors. Pressureless closed-circuit sintering, by avoiding these potential problems, allows for more precise control of the sintering process, resulting in piezoelectric ceramics with a pure perovskite crystal structure, dense microstructure, and uniform grain size, which is beneficial for improving the overall performance of high-power piezoelectric ceramics.

[0050] In piezoelectric material research, a common method to improve high-power performance is through hard doping (such as Cr). 3+ Fe 2 / 3+ (etc.), while the present invention, through the composition design of piezoelectric ceramics, in Pb(Yb 1 / 2 Nb 1 / 2 Based on the O3-PbZrO3-PbTiO3 system, through doping with the metal oxide MnO2 and the composite oxide Pb(Mn) 1 / 3 Nb 2 / 3Two doping methods were used to introduce Mn into Pb(PMnN)O3 doping.

[0199] Figure 1 The image shows the cross-sectional morphology of the PMnN-doped PYN-PZT piezoelectric ceramic prepared in Example 8 using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). As shown in the figure, the prepared piezoelectric ceramic has uniform grain size and a dense structure.

[0200] Figure 2 The graph shows the dielectric constant of MnO2 and PMnN-doped PYN-PZT prepared in Examples 1, 2, 4, and 5 as a function of temperature. The graph shows that the prepared piezoelectric ceramics have a high Curie temperature (>370℃) and can be used in high-temperature environments.

As can be seen from the figures, at an electric field of 40 kV / cm, the coercive field of the MnO2-doped PYN-PZT ceramic prepared in Example 3 is 25 kV / cm, and the internal bias field is 5 kV / cm; while the coercive field of the PMnN-doped PYN-PZT ceramic prepared in Example 6 is 27 kV / cm, and the internal bias field is 8.5 kV / cm. A large coercive field can improve the withstand voltage threshold of piezoelectric ceramics, making them suitable for high-power device applications. Furthermore, when the Mn doping content is the same, PMnN doping exhibits a larger coercive field and internal bias field than MnO2 doping.
