Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tin powder preparation, and in particular to a liquid phase reduction method for preparing nano tin particles. Background Art
[0002] Nano-tin particles have broad application prospects in the fields of electronics, catalysis, energy storage, etc. due to their unique physical and chemical properties. Traditional methods for preparing nano-tin particles include vapor deposition and solid-phase reaction, but these methods usually have problems such as complex process, high cost, and low yield. Liquid phase reduction method has become an effective method for preparing nano-tin particles due to its advantages such as simple operation, low cost, and easy control. However, there are still many problems in the practical application of liquid phase reduction method for preparing nano-tin particles:
[0003] The existing technology usually relies on a single reducing agent and dispersant, which leads to uneven size of tin particles and reduced product performance; after a single reducing agent is added dropwise to a tin salt solution, the reducing agent diffuses slowly in the tin salt solution, and some of the generated nano-tin particles will agglomerate; the tin salt solution to be reduced is prone to hydrolysis and oxidation reactions, resulting in a low tin salt conversion rate; some methods also require conditions such as high temperature and high pressure, which increases costs and energy consumption. Summary of the invention
[0004] The invention provides a method for preparing nano tin particles by a liquid phase reduction method. The invention proposes a new technical scheme. Under room temperature conditions, ascorbic acid is used to inhibit the hydrolysis of a tin salt solution, and PVP and low-molecular-weight PEG are added at the same time. The ratio of PVP and PEG is controlled to maintain the stability of the solution while ensuring the uniformity of particle size distribution. Then, the nano tin particles are obtained by a mixed solution of a reducing agent and a dispersant. In this process, high-quality tin powder that can be mass-produced is prepared by regulating appropriate process parameters. The entire reaction is carried out in a water system.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a liquid phase reduction method for preparing nano-tin particles, comprising the following steps:
[0006] Step 1: adding ascorbic acid to an aqueous solvent and mixing uniformly to obtain a solution A; then adding a pre-dispersant and a tin salt in a mass ratio of 1:2 to 1:3.5 to the solution A and mixing uniformly to obtain a solution B; wherein the mass ratio of ascorbic acid to the tin salt is 1:5 to 1:7;
[0007] Step 2: adding a reducing agent and a dispersing agent to an aqueous solvent and mixing them uniformly to obtain a solution C; wherein the mass ratio of the dispersing agent to the tin salt is 1:4 to 1:5, and the mass ratio of the reducing agent to the tin salt is 1:1.4 to 1:2;
[0008] Step 3, adding solution C dropwise into solution B at a dropping rate of 3.5 mL / min, reacting for 90 to 150 minutes, to obtain solution D;
[0009] Step 4, separating the solution D into solid and liquid, washing with water, washing with alcohol and drying to obtain nano-tin powder.
[0010] In the step 1, the mass ratio of the pre-dispersant to the tin salt is 1:2.5.
[0011] In the step 1, the mass ratio of ascorbic acid to tin salt is 1:6.
[0012] The concentration of the tin salt solution in step 1 is 150-170 g / L.
[0013] The mass ratio of the dispersant to the tin salt in the step 2 is 1:5.
[0014] The mass ratio of the reducing agent to the tin salt in the step 2 is 1:2.
[0015] In the step 1, the pre-dispersing agent is polyvinyl pyrrolidone and polyethylene glycol, the mass ratio of polyvinyl pyrrolidone to polyethylene glycol is 1:1, and the molecular weight of the polyethylene glycol is 400-2000.
[0016] In the step 1, the tin salt is one or more of stannous sulfate or stannous chloride.
[0017] The reducing agent in step 2 is one or more of hydrazine hydrate, formaldehyde or sodium borohydride.
[0018] The dispersant in step 2 is one or more of sodium citrate, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polyethylene glycol, and phenanthroline hydrochloride.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0020] 1. The entire reaction process is carried out at room temperature in a water system, the operation is simple, and it is suitable for large-scale production with stable quality.
[0021] 2. The present invention uses a step-by-step liquid phase reduction method to adjust the morphology of nano-tin particles by controlling the mass ratio of the pre-dispersant, ascorbic acid, dispersant, reducing agent and tin salt. The aqueous solution of ascorbic acid is acidic, which can control the hydrolysis reaction of the tin salt solution and reduce the reduction potential at the same time, thereby preparing nano-tin powder with excellent performance.
[0022] 3. The pre-dispersant is a mixture of polyvinyl pyrrolidone and polyethylene glycol. Polyethylene glycol has a relatively low molecular weight and is permeable. Polyvinyl pyrrolidone is adsorbed on the surface of nano-tin under the action of hydrogen bonds to form a protective film to prevent agglomeration. The low molecular weight polyethylene glycol can make the nano-tin have better hydrophilicity through physical adsorption. Under the joint action of polyvinyl pyrrolidone and polyethylene glycol, the dispersibility of nano-tin is further enhanced, which is beneficial to the preparation of nano-tin powder.
