Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of coating materials, and specifically refers to a high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystal silicon and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] As the core material in the growth process of single crystal silicon, quartz crucible needs to withstand high temperature and highly corrosive environment, while also having excellent thermal stability, thermal shock resistance and structural integrity.

[0003] In the existing technology, quartz crucible coatings are mostly made of single materials such as silicon nitride and silicon carbide. Although they have certain high temperature resistance, they have obvious limitations. First, in high temperature environments, the thermal stress distribution of these traditional coating materials is uneven, which makes the quartz crucible prone to bulging or cracking; second, when preparing single crystal silicon, the quartz crucible is easily corroded by oxygen and impurities, showing insufficient corrosion resistance and shortening the service life; third, the interface bonding strength between the coating and the quartz crucible substrate is low, and it is easy to peel off or fall off; finally, the existing coating preparation process is complicated and costly, and cannot meet the needs of large-scale production.

[0004] Therefore, preparing a high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single crystal silicon to improve the temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and structural stability of the quartz crucible has become a key technical problem that needs to be urgently solved in the photovoltaic industry. Summary of the invention

[0005] To overcome the defects existing in the prior art, for the high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon prepared by the present invention, aluminum nitride is prepared as the main material by the co-heating method of Al2O3 and boron nitride for the first time, and an excessive amount of carbon powder is introduced. On the one hand, it can enhance the strength of the coating and improve the thermal conductivity of the coating at high temperatures, avoiding the shedding of the coating caused by uneven heat conduction. On the other hand, carbon reacts with aluminum nitride to form Al-C bonds, which not only significantly enhances the high-temperature resistance of the material, but also inhibits crystal slip deformation by hindering the movement of dislocations, improving the high-temperature structural stability. Moreover, the uniform distribution of carbon makes the thermal stress distribution more uniform, preventing the quartz crucible from bulging or cracking due to uneven heat; and C-N bonds are formed between Al-C bonds and Al-N bonds, which can enhance the binding force between atoms, making the coating harder, more wear-resistant and more ductile; to further improve the performance, the aluminum nitride-carbon composite material is alcoholized to make its surface rich in hydroxyl groups, and after being treated with a silane coupling agent, it condenses with the hydroxyl groups to improve the surface adsorption. At the same time, magnesium powder is introduced to remove oxygen to generate MgO, improving the temperature resistance and corrosion resistance of the coating. MgO acts as a nucleating agent to promote the crystal form transformation of the quartz crucible, further improving the overall temperature resistance; in addition, to enhance the adhesion and structural stability, silica sol and absolute ethanol are mixed, and ethanol adjusts the viscosity and surface tension to form a continuous and uniform film layer. Polyethylene glycol is added to reduce the surface tension, improve the wettability and adhesion, and form a network structure to enhance the flexibility and integrity. Aluminum phosphate is introduced, and the characteristics of filling gaps and densifying the structure by aluminum phosphate are utilized. Moreover, the decomposition of aluminum phosphate provides a protective film for the coating, improving the high-temperature corrosion resistance, and forming a more stable high-temperature phase at high temperatures, significantly enhancing the high-temperature resistance of the coating.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is a high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon, which is prepared from the following raw materials in parts by weight: 10-15 parts of coating composite, 5-8 parts of composite colloid, 1 part of magnesium powder, 2-5 parts of SiC and 0.5 part of quartz fiber.

[0007] Further, the preparation method of the composite A includes the following steps:

[0008] (a) Weigh 1-2 parts of Al2O3, 4-8 parts of boron nitride and 0.3 part of flux, grind and mix them to obtain a reactant precursor;

[0010] (c) Weigh 0.2 - 0.5 parts of carbon powder and add it to the aluminum nitride composite A obtained in step (b), grind it evenly, put it into a calcination furnace with an argon flow rate of 0.5 L / min, and perform heat treatment at a temperature of 1800 - 2000 °C for 6 h, then naturally cool it to room temperature to obtain composite A.

[0011] Further, the flux is GaO.

[0012] Further, the preparation method of the coating composite includes the following steps:

[0013] (α) Weigh 3 - 5 parts of composite A and add it to 0.5 - 1.5 parts of mixed alcohols, stir for 30 min under the condition of a rotation speed of 500 - 800 r / min to obtain a mixed solution A;

[0014] (β) Add 1 part of silane coupling agent to the mixed solution A obtained in step (α), stir for 30 min under the condition of a rotation speed of 500 - 800 r / min, heat at a temperature of 60 - 90 °C for 2 h, and let it stand at room temperature for 72 h to obtain the coating composite.

[0015] Further, the mixed alcohols are a mixture of silanol and absolute ethanol, and the mass ratio of silanol to absolute ethanol is 1 - 2:3.

[0016] Further, the preparation method of the composite colloid includes the following steps:

[0017] (i) Weigh 6 - 10 parts of absolute ethanol and 4 - 8 parts of silica sol, mix them and stir for 30 min under the condition of a rotation speed of 500 - 800 r / min to obtain a homogeneous solution A;

[0018] (ii) Add 1 - 2 parts of polyethylene glycol to the homogeneous solution A obtained in step (i), stir for 30 min under the condition of a rotation speed of 300 - 500 r / min to obtain a mixed solution I;

[0019] (iii) Weigh 0.3 - 0.6 parts of silicon nitride and 1 part of aluminum phosphate, mix and grind them, sieve them with a 40 - mesh sieve to obtain a mixture I, add the obtained mixture I to the mixed solution I obtained in step (ii), and perform ultrasonic treatment for 30 min under the condition of an ultrasonic power of 0.3 - 0.5 kw to obtain a colloidal suspension;

[0020] (iv) Heat the colloidal suspension obtained in step (iii) to 50 °C and cure it for 12 h, then store it sealed to obtain the composite colloid.

[0021] The present invention also provides a preparation method for a high - performance crucible coating for large - diameter single - crystal silicon, including the following steps:

[0022] Step 1: Weigh 2 - 5 parts of SiC and add it to 5 - 8 parts of composite colloid. Ultrasonic it for 30 min under the condition that the ultrasonic power is 0.8 - 1.2 kw, and stir it for 30 min under the condition that the rotation speed is 500 - 800 r / min to obtain a substrate;

[0023] Step 2: Weigh 10 - 15 parts of coating composite and 0.5 part of quartz fiber and add them to the substrate obtained in Step 1.

[0024] Step 3: Deoxygenate the high-performance crucible coating precursor for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon obtained in Step 2 for 2 h under the condition that the argon flow rate is 300 ml / min. Weigh 1 part of magnesium powder and add it to the high-performance crucible coating precursor for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon obtained in Step 2. Ultrasonic it for 20 min under the condition that the ultrasonic power is 0.3 - 0.6 kw, and stir it for 30 min under the condition that the rotation speed is 300 - 500 r / min. Fill it with argon protective gas and seal it for storage to obtain a high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon.

[0025] The beneficial effects obtained by the present invention are as follows:

[0026] The high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon prepared by the present invention uses the co-heating method of Al2O3 and boron nitride to prepare aluminum nitride, which is used as the main material of the coating. It has high strength and will not introduce impurities into the preparation of single-crystalline silicon. On this basis, an excessive amount of carbon powder is introduced. In a high-temperature environment, the carbon powder can significantly enhance the mechanical strength of the coating and greatly improve the thermal conductivity of the coating. The uniform heat conduction characteristics effectively avoid the problem of coating peeling caused by uneven heat conduction. Moreover, the carbon powder reacts with aluminum nitride at high temperature to form Al-C bonds. The formation of this chemical bond not only greatly enhances the high-temperature resistance of the material, but also effectively inhibits the slip deformation of the crystal at high temperature by hindering the movement of dislocations, thereby effectively improving the structural stability of the coating in a high-temperature environment; in addition, the introduction of carbon powder enables the thermal stress to be more evenly dispersed, avoiding the phenomenon of bulging or cracking of the quartz crucible due to local heat concentration; on the basis of forming Al-C bonds, further reaction occurs between Al-N bonds and Al-C bonds to form C-N bonds. The presence of C-N bonds significantly enhances the atomic bonding force, enabling the coating to have higher hardness, excellent wear resistance and good toughness, effectively improving the comprehensive mechanical properties of the coating.

[0027] The high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon prepared by the present invention, in order to further explore the performance potential of the coating, the aluminum nitride-carbon composite material is alcoholized to make the material surface rich in a large number of hydroxyl groups; subsequently, it is treated with a silane coupling agent, and the silane coupling agent undergoes a condensation reaction with the hydroxyl groups on the surface, significantly improving the adsorption performance of the coating surface. At the same time, magnesium powder is introduced, and the magnesium powder reacts with the oxygen generated during the single-crystal preparation process to generate MgO; the generation of MgO not only improves the high-temperature resistance and corrosion resistance of the coating, but also, due to its property as a nucleating agent, can promote the crystal form transformation of the quartz crucible, improve the mechanical strength of the quartz crucible, and prevent the crucible from collapsing.

[0028] The high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon prepared by the present invention, in terms of enhancing the coating adhesion and structural stability, mixes silica sol and absolute ethanol. The absolute ethanol can effectively adjust the viscosity and surface tension of the mixed solution, enabling the solution to form a continuous and uniform film layer on the substrate surface. Polyethylene glycol is added to it. The polyethylene glycol can further reduce the surface tension, significantly improve the wettability and adhesion of the coating, and at the same time form a network structure inside the coating, enhancing the flexibility and integrity of the coating; in addition, a key component, aluminum phosphate, is introduced. The aluminum phosphate can fully fill the gaps inside the coating, making the coating structure more dense; under high-temperature conditions, the decomposition of aluminum phosphate will form a dense protective film on the coating surface, effectively improving the high-temperature corrosion resistance of the coating.

[0096] As can be seen from Table 1, for the high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon prepared in Example 1, partial peeling of the surface coating occurred after 550 h of single-crystalline silicon preparation. The coating obtained in Example 2 did not peel off, and the coating obtained in Example 3 showed partial corrosion. For the high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon prepared in the comparative example, the coatings in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 peeled off and the bubbles appeared after 450 h of use, and the ordinary quartz crucible showed corrosion and foaming and was withdrawn from use after 350 h of use. From the above results, it can be seen that the high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon prepared in Example 2 has high corrosion resistance and high-temperature resistance, which prolongs the service life and reduces the cost in the process of preparing large-diameter single-crystalline silicon.

[0097] Figure 2 For the corrosion rate test of the high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon prepared in the examples and comparative examples during use, the average corrosion rate of Example 2 in the first 200 hours was 0.082 μm / h, the average corrosion rate in the range of 200 - 450 hours was 0.037 μm / h, and the average corrosion rate in the range of 450 - 550 hours was 0.025 μm / h. It can be seen that the high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon prepared in Example 2 has good corrosion resistance, which is crucial for protecting the quartz crucible, and the corrosion rate is significantly lower than other values compared with other examples and comparative examples; Figure 3 For the deoxidation rate of the single-crystalline silicon wafers drawn by the high-performance crucible coatings for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon prepared in the examples and comparative examples, the deoxidation rate of the first rod in Example 2 was 20.4%, the deoxidation rate of the second rod was 19.7%, and the deoxidation rate of the third rod was 19.1%. It can be seen that the high-performance crucible coating for large-diameter single-crystalline silicon prepared has a certain effect on the control of oxygen in the single crystal, and the deoxidation rate differences are not large, indicating that the introduction of magnesium powder plays a certain role in deoxidation.
