Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of rare earth materials, in particular to a method for preparing anhydrous acetic acid rare earth raw material and application of the raw material in the synthesis of rare earth nano luminescent materials. Background Art
[0002] Rare earth acetate has become a hot material in research and industry due to its important applications in many fields such as catalysis, optics, agriculture, corrosion protection and environmental protection. Rare earth acetate has good solubility, easy to control reaction conditions, and can provide a stable and high-purity source of rare earth ions. In many liquid phase synthesis methods of rare earth nanoluminescent materials (such as hydrothermal method, solvothermal method, coprecipitation method and solid-liquid thermal decomposition method, etc.), compared with rare earth chloride, rare earth acetate is easier to decompose into rare earth ions and organic acid coordination, and can participate in the crystal nucleation and growth process in the liquid phase reaction process at a more gentle and controllable rate. The additionally introduced acetate can be decomposed into gas overflow without introducing any impurity elements, so it can achieve controllable preparation of rare earth nanoluminescent materials with high yield, high dispersibility and excellent optical properties.
[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN105694889A discloses an upconversion luminescent material, its preparation method and application, and the rare earth source of the invention includes rare earth acetate. Chinese patent CN117660007A discloses a NaYF4:Yb,Tm@Cs4PbBr6 core-shell structure nanocrystal and its synthesis method, which can obtain high-efficiency upconversion luminescence and can also make the upconversion light continuously adjustable in the visible light range. In the synthesis, the rare earth ions also come from yttrium acetate, ytterbium acetate and thulium acetate.
[0004] However, the existing rare earth acetate products are of varying quality. In the preparation of rare earth nanoluminescent materials, inferior products as rare earth ion raw materials often lead to uneven nanoparticle size and precipitation. In addition, the traditional two-step method for preparing rare earth acetate with crystallization water not only faces challenges such as harsh process conditions, difficult treatment of crystallization mother liquor, high cost and introduction of additional impurity elements, but also easily absorbs moisture and deteriorates during subsequent storage. These problems will lead to inconsistency in product quality, low yield, instability of impurity content, environmental pollution and waste of resources, which seriously hinder the sustainable development and application expansion of rare earth acetate. The academic paper "Experimental Study on the Preparation of Hydrated Rare Earth Acetate with Rare Earth Oxides" studied the preparation of a series of hydrated rare earth acetate by dissolving rare earth oxides with acetic acid and evaporating and crystallizing. However, rare earth acetate with crystallization water will bring an additional cumbersome and time-consuming water removal process in the large-scale batch preparation of rare earth nanoluminescent materials, increasing production costs. In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology and the embarrassment of its application environment, it is urgent to develop a method for preparing anhydrous rare earth acetate that is both simple and environmentally friendly. The rare earth acetate prepared by this new method has no crystal water and is used as a rare earth ion source in the preparation of rare earth nano-luminescent materials, thereby achieving high-yield and high-quality preparation of rare earth nano-luminescent materials. Summary of the invention

[0079] Comparative Example 3
[0080] According to the experimental conditions reported in the reference paper "Experimental Study on the Preparation of Hydrated Rare Earth Acetate with Rare Earth Oxides", the mass volume ratio of erbium oxide to acetic acid is 1 / 1.8. Take an appropriate amount of glacial acetic acid and dissolve it in pure water to prepare a glacial acetic acid solution with a concentration of 2.5 mol / L. Heat to 75°C at a heating rate of 10°C / min and keep warm. Add 50g of yttrium oxide to the acetic acid solution under stirring to dissolve, evaporate and concentrate the rare earth acetate solution, filter after precipitating rare earth acetate crystals, and air-dry the obtained crystal particles at room temperature. The obtained sample particles are compared with the erbium acetate obtained in this patent in terms of X-ray diffraction patterns. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the prepared sample particles is quite different from that of the erbium acetate standard.
