Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a solar cell preparation technology, in particular to a crystalline silicon preparation technology and its use equipment, and specifically to a method for preparing an ultra-fine high-strength diamond wire busbar. Background Art

[0002] The successful development of monocrystalline silicon solar cells has played a milestone role in the history of solar cell development. As the most important raw material of the solar photovoltaic industry, crystalline silicon has increasingly higher processing requirements. Diamond cutting wire, referred to as diamond wire, is a new type of hard and brittle material cutting tool. Due to its efficient cutting ability, it is used in the processing of monocrystalline silicon.

[0003] Diamond wire busbar is the base material of diamond wire, mainly tungsten wire and carbon steel wire. Tungsten wire has high elastic modulus and high strength characteristics, which can reach more than 6GPa. In addition, the heating drawing method can produce products with specifications of 30 microns and below, which is gradually favored by the market.

[0004] Due to the high price of tungsten powder raw materials and long processing flow, the comprehensive production cost is much higher than that of carbon steel wire, and further reducing the wire diameter and increasing the strength have encountered bottlenecks, which hinders its further market penetration. Carbon steel wire, as the traditional diamond wire substrate, has been used for more than ten years. It has low cost and mature process flow. It is made of high-carbon steel wire rod through large drawing-heat treatment-medium drawing-heat treatment-copper zinc plating-wet drawing. The wire diameter is between 30 and 40 microns. With the increase of strain, the tensile strength increases almost linearly. The strength of the current product can reach 5GPa. The theoretical strength of carbon steel wire can reach 13GPa, and the market share exceeds 80%. In the process of cutting silicon wafers, diamond wires with higher strength, thinner wire diameter and lower cost are required, so the further improvement of carbon steel wire will be solved.

[0005] From the perspective of preparation equipment, traditional tower pulley equipment can no longer meet the production requirements of specifications below 30 microns due to its technical principle of slipping and pulling, and new non-slip equipment is needed to further reduce its diameter. From the perspective of production technology, the strength of carbon steel wire produced by the pure wet-drawing process is difficult to improve, and new process steps are needed to improve its strength.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a method for preparing an ultra-fine high-strength diamond wire busbar to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0015] 6) Set the number of drawing passes n' of the non-slip wire drawing machine to 10 passes and the surface reduction rate q' of each pass to 5%-15%;

[0017] Furthermore, the temperature T of the lubricating fluid is controlled to be 34-44°C.

[0018] Furthermore, there are two groups of guide wheels, and each group of guide wheels includes two corresponding single-body guide wheels.

[0019] Furthermore, the tower pulley wire drawing machine adopts tungsten steel or single crystal mold.

[0020] Furthermore, the non-slip wire drawing machine adopts a single crystal die, and the total compression rate Q' is ≤70%.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention can produce ultra-fine carbon steel wire with d of 15 to 30 μm through the two-step connecting drawing process of "tower pulley drawing + low pulse voltage non-slip drawing", especially based on the characteristics of controllable post-tensioning and non-slip in the non-slip wire drawing process; the low pulse voltage achieves a great improvement in processing plasticity, and increases the dislocation movement rate and dislocation value increase. The solution provided by the present invention can produce ultra-high strength carbon steel wire with Rm of 5.8 to 7.9 GPa; it overcomes the surface slip damage when using tower pulley to draw ultra-fine wire, reduces its surface defect sensitivity, and improves its comprehensive mechanical properties.
