Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of porous ceramics technology, and in particular to a porous beryllium oxide ceramic and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Beryllium oxide ceramics have always been important components for electronic devices. Due to their high thermal conductivity, good insulation, thermal shock resistance, low loss, and good chemical stability, beryllium oxide ceramics are widely used for heat dissipation in high-power devices such as aerospace equipment, and have been extensively adopted in electronic vacuum devices, high-power module thick-film circuits, packaged devices, and optoelectronic devices.
[0003] Methods for preparing porous ceramic powders include gelation, emulsion, and emulsion precipitation methods. These methods all require the use of organic materials as pore-forming agents. The porous powder needs drying during preparation, and the pore-forming agent achieves pore formation through thermal decomposition, combustion decomposition, and sublimation during drying. The introduction and removal of the pore-forming agent affect the sintering process; simultaneously, the distribution of the pore-forming agent during preparation also affects the porosity, pore size, strength, and grain size of the porous ceramic.
[0004] Most beryllium oxide porous ceramics currently used achieve their porous nature by controlling the amount of paraffin added and sintering at low temperatures to create a certain porosity. However, these porous ceramics suffer from low strength due to their low sintering temperature, making them difficult to process later, and they also exhibit low porosity and poor formability. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Furthermore, the porous beryllium oxide ceramic has a porosity of 22-28%, a room temperature flexural strength ≥140MPa, and a grain size ≤20μm.
[0010] Secondly, the present invention provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned porous beryllium oxide ceramic, comprising the following steps:
[0011] (1) Weigh out each raw material according to its weight percentage and set aside;
[0012] (2) Dissolve polyvinyl butyral in anhydrous ethanol to obtain solution A;

[0014] (4) Add nano-beryllium oxide, nano-magnesium oxide and nano-aluminum silicate to the mixed solution, disperse evenly, spray granulate, dry to obtain powder;
[0015] (5) The powder is cold isostatically pressed and sintered at high temperature to obtain the porous beryllium oxide ceramic.
[0016] Furthermore, in step (2), the dissolution is carried out under ultrasound, with an ultrasound power of 1000-1200W and an ultrasound time of 30-40min.
[0017] Furthermore, in step (3), the mass fraction of the guar gum powder in solution B is 10-15%.
[0018] Furthermore, in step (4), the dispersion is carried out under ultrasonic conditions, with the ultrasonic power being 1400-1800W and the ultrasonic time being 2-4h.
[0019] Furthermore, in step (5), the pressure of cold isostatic pressing is 120-150 MPa, and the holding time is 1-2 min.
[0020] Furthermore, in step (5), the high-temperature sintering temperature is 1600-1700℃.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention can achieve at least one of the following beneficial effects:
[0022] (1) This invention combines nano-beryllium oxide, nano-magnesium oxide, nano-aluminum silicate, polyvinyl butyral, guar gum powder, and anhydrous ethanol in a specific ratio. Through synergistic effects, these substances improve the porosity, strength, and other properties of porous beryllium oxide ceramics. Among them, magnesium oxide acts as a sintering aid, which can lower the sintering temperature, reduce energy consumption, activate the crystal lattice, and improve the thermal shock resistance of the ceramics; polyvinyl butyral acts as a binder, pore-forming agent, and shaper; anhydrous ethanol has shaping and lubricating effects; guar gum powder improves the sintering performance of porous beryllium oxide ceramics, promotes diffusion and bonding between ceramic particles, accelerates the sintering process, lowers the sintering temperature, increases strength, increases porosity, and facilitates shaping during cold isostatic pressing.
[0023] (2) Through extensive experiments, this invention has found that polyvinyl butyral and guar gum powder exhibit good complementarity in the preparation of porous beryllium oxide.

During the preparation of porous beryllium oxide, the two interact, thereby enhancing the bonding force between beryllium oxide particles and stabilizing the pore structure. Through synergistic effects, polyvinyl butyral and guar gum powder can significantly improve the porosity and molding properties of porous beryllium oxide. The increase in porosity helps to increase the specific surface area and adsorption capacity of the material, while the good molding properties make the porous beryllium oxide more stable and reliable in the preparation and application process. Through the carefully designed combination of components and synergistic mechanism, the synergistic effect of each substance enables the porous beryllium oxide to achieve good sintering at high temperatures, realizing a comprehensive improvement in the performance of porous beryllium oxide ceramics and opening up a broader prospect for the research and development and application of ceramic materials.

The resulting powder has good formability and can be cold isostatically pressed. The porous beryllium oxide ceramics prepared by the cold isostatic pressing method of the present invention have small grain size and high strength, solving the forming and sintering problems of porous beryllium oxide ceramics.

[0034] This invention utilizes a specific ratio of nano-beryllium oxide, nano-magnesium oxide, nano-aluminum silicate, polyvinyl butyral, guar gum powder, and anhydrous ethanol. Through synergistic effects, these substances improve the porosity, strength, and other properties of porous beryllium oxide ceramics. Magnesium oxide acts as a sintering aid, lowering the sintering temperature and reducing energy consumption. It also activates the crystal lattice, improving the ceramic's thermal shock resistance. Polyvinyl butyral acts as a binder, pore-forming agent, and shaper; anhydrous ethanol provides shaping and lubrication; and guar gum powder improves the sintering performance of porous beryllium oxide ceramics, promoting diffusion and bonding between ceramic particles, accelerating the sintering process, lowering the sintering temperature, increasing strength, and increasing porosity, facilitating shaping during cold isostatic pressing.
[0035] This invention, through extensive experimentation, has discovered that polyvinyl butyral and guar gum powder exhibit excellent complementarity in the preparation of porous beryllium oxide. Polyvinyl butyral primarily provides bonding and molding properties, while guar gum powder mainly functions as a thickener and regulates pore structure. During the preparation of porous beryllium oxide, the two interact, thereby enhancing the bonding force between beryllium oxide particles and stabilizing the pore structure. Through synergistic effects, polyvinyl butyral and guar gum powder can significantly improve the porosity and molding properties of porous beryllium oxide. Increased porosity helps increase the specific surface area and adsorption capacity of the material, while good molding properties make porous beryllium oxide more stable and reliable in preparation and application. Through carefully designed component combinations and synergistic mechanisms, this invention enables porous beryllium oxide to achieve good sintering at high temperatures, realizing a comprehensive improvement in the performance of porous beryllium oxide ceramics and opening up broader prospects for the research and application of ceramic materials.

The resulting powder has good formability and can be cold isostatically pressed. The porous beryllium oxide ceramics prepared using the cold isostatic pressing method and raw materials of the present invention have small grain size and high strength, solving the forming and sintering problems of porous beryllium oxide ceramics.
[0048] In one specific embodiment, in step (2), the dissolution is performed under ultrasound, with an ultrasound power of 1000-1200W, for example, 1000W, 1020W, 1040W, 1060W, 1080W, 1100W, 1120W, 1140W, 1160W, 1180W, 1200W, and an ultrasound duration of 30-40min, for example, 30min, 31min, 32min, 33min, 34min, 35min, 36min, 37min, 38min, 39min, 40min.
[0049] In one specific embodiment, in step (3), the mass fraction of the guar gum powder in solution B is 10-15%, for example, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, or 15%.
[0050] It should be noted that when the guar gum powder is at the above-mentioned mass fraction, the resulting powder has good formability.

[0052] In one specific embodiment, in step (5), the pressure of cold isostatic pressing is 120-150 MPa, for example, 120 MPa, 125 MPa, 130 MPa, 135 MPa, 140 MPa, 145 MPa, 150 MPa, and the holding time is 1-2 min, for example, 1.1 min, 1.2 min, 1.3 min, 1.4 min, 1.5 min, 1.6 min, 1.7 min, 1.8 min, 1.9 min, 2 min.

[0127] Compared with Example 2, Comparative Examples 1 and 1-1 show that the particle size of nano-beryllium oxide and nano-magnesium oxide is not within the range defined by the present invention, resulting in porous beryllium oxide ceramics with lower porosity, lower room temperature flexural strength, and larger grain size.
[0128] Compared with Example 2, Comparative Examples 2 and 2-1 show that the particle size of the guar powder is not within the range defined by the present invention, resulting in porous beryllium oxide ceramics with lower porosity, lower room temperature flexural strength, and larger grain size.
[0129] Compared with Example 2, Comparative Examples 3 and 3-1 show that the mass fraction of guar gum powder is outside the range defined by the present invention, and the powder cannot be formed by cold isostatic pressing.
[0130] Compared with Example 2, Comparative Examples 4 and 4-1 have cold isostatic pressing pressure and holding time that are not within the range defined by the present invention, resulting in porous beryllium oxide ceramics with lower porosity, lower room temperature flexural strength, and larger grain size.
[0131] Compared with Example 2, Comparative Example 5 directly mixes the raw materials without using the method of the present invention, and the powder cannot be formed after cold isostatic pressing.
[0132] Compared to Example 2, Comparative Examples 6-7 and 9-10, by replacing nano-magnesium oxide with nano-silica, or by removing guar gum powder, nano-aluminate silica, or polyvinyl butyral from the raw materials, resulted in porous beryllium oxide ceramics with lower porosity, lower room temperature flexural strength, and larger grain size. This demonstrates that the high porosity, high strength, and small grain size of the porous beryllium oxide ceramics of this application can only be obtained through the synergistic effect of the raw materials used in this invention.
[0133] Compared with Example 2, the porous beryllium oxide ceramic obtained by Comparative Example 8, which is not in the proportions specified in this application, has lower porosity, lower room temperature flexural strength, and larger grain size.
[0134] Compared with Example 2, the porous beryllium oxide ceramics prepared in Comparative Examples 11-12, which are not sintered at the temperature specified in this invention, have lower porosity, lower room temperature flexural strength, and larger grain size.
[0135] The inventors also conducted the above-mentioned experiments on other embodiments, and the results were basically the same. Due to space limitations, they will not be listed one by one.
[0136] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
