Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of magnetic materials technology, and in particular to a nickel-zinc ferrite material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of electronic and power technology, the trend of electronic devices towards miniaturization, high frequency, and high current is inevitable. Therefore, the performance requirements for soft magnetic materials in electronic devices are also increasing. NiZn soft magnetic ferrites have advantages such as excellent high-frequency characteristics, good temperature stability, diverse formulations, large nonlinearity, and simple preparation process, and are widely used in television, communications, instrumentation, automatic control, electronic warfare and other fields.

[0003] NiZn ferrite materials can be divided into three main categories according to their applications and characteristics: high frequency, high saturation magnetic induction, and high initial permeability. However, they still have unavoidable drawbacks. For example, in order to achieve high permeability, the ZnO content of high-impedance NiZn ferrite materials must be increased, which leads to a significant decrease in their Curie temperature. Furthermore, high permeability will lower their cutoff frequency, and the impedance decrease is more pronounced at frequencies of tens of megahertz.

[0004] The prior art CN115925405A discloses a NiCuZn soft magnetic ferrite material with high permeability and high Curie temperature. Its main components include Fe2O3: 66.22wt%–68.65wt%; ZnO: 18.30wt%–22.15wt%; NiO: 7.75wt%–9.85wt%; with the balance being CuO. The dopants include Y2O3, MoO3, V2O5, and MnCO3, wherein Y2O3 accounts for 0.05wt%–0.1wt% of the main component mass, MoO3 accounts for 0.06wt%–0.18wt% of the main component mass, V2O5 accounts for 0.05wt%–0.15wt% of the main component mass, and MnCO3 accounts for 0.55wt% of the main component mass. At a test frequency of 100kHz, the initial permeability is 2011, and the specific loss coefficient is 28.78 × 10⁻⁶. -6 The Curie temperature is 145℃ and the saturation magnetic induction intensity Bs=352mT (10kHz, 4000A / m). The ferrite material disclosed in this prior art has extremely high initial magnetic permeability, but if it is to be used in automotive products, its Curie temperature must reach above 160℃. However, its Curie temperature is too low and cannot reach a high level.

[0005] CN109320227 discloses a NiCuZn ferrite material, its preparation method, and its uses. The NiCuZn ferrite material is mainly composed of Fe2O3, ZnO, NiO, and CuO. Based on the total molar amount of the NiCuZn ferrite material as 100%, the molar percentage of Fe2O3 is 48.8 mol%–50 mol%, the molar percentage of ZnO is 32–34 mol%, the molar percentage of NiO is 6.5–8 mol%, and the molar percentage of CuO is 8.5–12.7 mol%. The prepared NiCuZn ferrite material exhibits an initial permeability of 1600–2000 in the 100–300 kHz range, a saturation magnetic induction intensity Bs ≥ 240 mT at 25 °C, and a Curie temperature of 95–110 °C. While the ferrite material disclosed in this prior art also possesses a high initial permeability, its saturation magnetic induction intensity is relatively low, making it unsuitable for common-mode circuits. Furthermore, its Curie temperature is only 110 °C, limiting its application scope.

[0006] Therefore, how to provide a nickel-zinc ferrite material that simultaneously possesses high permeability, saturation magnetic induction, Curie temperature, and impedance coefficient has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

Then, the first mixture was heated from room temperature of 25°C to 850°C for 1 hour at a heating rate of 3°C / min to obtain the pre-calcined mixture.

[0077] (2) The pre-calcined mixture obtained in step (1) is sieved a second time through a 30-mesh sieve, and then the prescribed amount of Nd2O3 is added. Under the conditions of water as a grinding aid and zirconia balls as the ball milling medium, the mixture is ball-milled at a speed of 500 r / min for 2 hours. After a second drying, the product after the second drying is sieved a third time through a 30-mesh sieve. The particle size D50 of the product after the third sieve is 1.0-1.2 μm, and the particle size D90 of the second mixture is 9.0-12.0 μm. PVA adhesive with a concentration of 90wt% was added to the mixture and stirred and granulated. The amount of PVA adhesive added was 10wt% of the total mass of the pre-calcined mixture and Nd2O3 to obtain a second mixture. The second mixture was then pressed into a sample ring under a pressure of 10MPa. The sample ring had an inner diameter of 10mm, an outer diameter of 20mm, and a height of 5mm. The obtained sample ring was then sintered in air at a heating rate of 5℃ / min from room temperature of 25℃ to 1180℃ for 2h to obtain a nickel-zinc ferrite material.

[0106] The nickel-zinc ferrite materials provided in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-10 were tested for their permeability, impedance, saturation magnetic induction, and Curie temperature. Among them:

[0107] (1) Permeability test: The real part μ' of permeability at 1MHz was measured using an Agilent E4991A analyzer.

[0108] (2) Impedance test: The impedance of the nickel-zinc ferrite material obtained by the Agilent E4991A analyzer was measured, and the dimensionless impedance coefficient was calculated. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0109] Z / (A e / L e );

[0110] Where Z is the impedance, Ae is the window area of ​​the ferrite material, and Le is the magnetic circuit length.

[0111] (3) Saturation magnetic induction intensity: The nickel-zinc ferrite materials obtained in the examples and comparative examples were uniformly wound with 35 turns of straight 0.4mm copper wire. The test conditions were 50Hz, the test temperature was 25℃, and the maximum value of the applied magnetic field was 4000A / m.

[0112] (4) Curie temperature: The nickel-zinc ferrite material obtained in the examples and comparative examples was wound 10 turns evenly with a straight 0.4 mm copper wire, and then placed in an oven. The starting temperature was 30°C, and the interval was 10°C. The permeability was measured with a Wenke 6500B. The point where the permeability became 0 was the Curie temperature Tc.

[0113] The test results for the above parameters are shown in Table 1:

[0114] Table 1

[0115]

[0116]

[0117] The test results show that:

[0118] (1) As can be seen from Examples 1 to 7, the present invention, by controlling the composition and content of the main components and dopant components in the nickel-zinc ferrite material, effectively improves the Curie temperature and high-frequency impedance coefficient of the nickel-zinc ferrite material while ensuring its high permeability and saturation magnetic induction. Furthermore, by controlling the doping amount of the dopant components, the permeability, saturation magnetic induction, high-frequency impedance coefficient, and Curie temperature of the nickel-zinc ferrite material can be further improved, resulting in a nickel-zinc ferrite material with even better overall performance.

[0119] (2) A comparison of Example 1 with Comparative Examples 1 and 2 shows that if the amount of Nd2O3 added to the nickel-zinc ferrite provided by the present invention is too high, the magnetic permeability will decrease significantly. This is because Nd2O3... 3+ It will localize between grain boundaries, hindering the displacement of magnetic domain walls; if the dopant Nd₂O₃ is lacking, the Curie temperature of the material will be lower, because of the absence of Nd. 3+ It will reduce the supertransfer effect between magnetic ions.

[0120] (3) By comparing Example 1 with Comparative Examples 3-10, it can be seen that in the nickel-zinc ferrite material provided by the present invention, if the content of Fe2O3 is too low, the high-frequency impedance coefficient is too low; if the content of Fe2O3 is too high, the permeability is too low; if the content of NiO is too low, the saturation magnetic induction intensity Bs is too low; if the content of NiO is too high, the permeability decreases; if the content of ZnO is too low, the permeability is too low; if the content of ZnO is too high, the overall performance of the ferrite material decreases.

[0121] In summary, by controlling the composition and content of the main components of nickel-zinc ferrite materials and introducing a specific amount of Nd2O3 dopant, this invention can ensure the high permeability and saturation magnetic induction of nickel-zinc ferrite materials, while also effectively improving the Curie temperature and high-frequency impedance coefficient of the materials, thereby giving nickel-zinc ferrite materials excellent comprehensive performance.
