Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of composite aerogels, and in particular relates to a three-dimensional network-shaped silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compression strength and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Aerogel has attracted wide attention due to its extremely high porosity, extremely low density, high specific surface area and good fire-resistant and heat-insulating properties. However, the compression strength of aerogel is generally low, and it is very easy to collapse the structure when facing external impact, which in turn affects its fire-resistant and heat-insulating effect and service life when facing external impact. Silicon carbide ceramics have excellent room temperature mechanical properties and good oxidation resistance, and its high-temperature mechanical properties are the best among known ceramic materials, and its high-temperature strength can be maintained up to 1600°C. One-dimensional silicon nitride nanomaterials have excellent properties such as good chemical stability, high temperature resistance, good flexibility, corrosion resistance, and good fire resistance. The one-dimensional silicon nitride nanomaterial stacked in a three-dimensional network has more micro-nano pores, which increases the phonon thermal vibration of the air during the heat transfer process, increases heat consumption, reduces heat transfer, and the silicon nitride material itself has a high melting point, so it has good fire-resistant and heat-insulating effects. The use of low thermal conductivity aerogels with high compression strength in practical applications is crucial to expand the application scenarios of aerogels and extend their service life.
[0003] Reference 1 “Zhi-Long, Yu, Bing, et al. Superelastic Hard Carbon Nanofiber Aerogels[J]. Advanced Materials, 2019.” reported the conversion of traditional rigid phenolic resin into superelastic hard carbon aerogel. The maximum compressive strength of the obtained carbon aerogel was about 30 kPa.

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2022, 618: 259-269." reported that phenolic resin was polymerized in melamine foam by a sol-gel method, followed by normal pressure drying and co-carbonization to prepare low-density, large-size monolithic carbon aerogels with a maximum compressive strength of 2.5 MPa.

Dimensional upgrading of 0D silica nanospheres to 3D networking toward robust aerogels for fire resistance and low-carbon applications, Materials Science and Engineering: R:Reports,Volume 161,2024,100842,ISSN 0927-796X,” reported poly(p-phenylene benzoxazole) nanofiber reinforced silica aerogels with a maximum compressive strength of 3.2 MPa.
[0006] However, the aerogel composite material with lower thermal conductivity prepared in the above literature has a maximum compression strength of 3.2 MPa. When facing external high-temperature flames and external force impacts, the low mechanical properties of aerogel limit its service life and affect its thermal insulation effect.

The aerogel composite material having such a structure has good compressive strength and fire-resistant and thermal insulation properties.
[0008] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: The present invention provides a method for preparing a three-dimensional network-shaped silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength, comprising the following steps: uniformly mixing polysilazane, xylene and ferrocene to obtain a mixed solution; The melamine foam is immersed in the mixed solution, and the melamine foam is repeatedly squeezed until the melamine foam is completely soaked by the mixed solution, and then turned over and dried for many times until the mixed solution in the melamine foam is completely solidified to obtain a solidified sample; The cured samples were heat treated in a nitrogen atmosphere to produce a three-dimensional network of silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength.
[0009] In one embodiment, the mass ratio of the polysilazane to xylene is 1:3-1:5.
[0010] In one embodiment, the mass ratio of ferrocene to polysilazane is 1:3-1:5.
[0011] In one embodiment, the specific process of immersing the melamine foam in the mixed solution, repeatedly squeezing the melamine foam until the melamine foam is completely soaked by the mixed solution, and then turning it over and drying it several times until the mixed solution in the melamine foam is completely solidified to obtain a solidified sample is as follows: The melamine foam is immersed in the mixed solution for 12-24 hours, and the melamine foam is squeezed repeatedly to make the melamine foam completely soaked in the mixed solution, and the excess mixed solution is squeezed out, and it is dried at room temperature for 7-15 days. On the 6th to 8th day, the areas where the melamine foam is not fully soaked are soaked again, and the melamine foam is turned over every 1-2 days until the mixed solution in the melamine foam is completely solidified to obtain a cured sample.
[0012] In one embodiment, the nitrogen gas has an inlet flow rate of 1000-1200 ml / min.
[0013] In one embodiment, the heat treatment process is as follows: Keep at the set temperature of 1430-1480℃ for 3-4h and then cool naturally.
[0014] In one embodiment, the heat treatment is performed in a box-type atmosphere furnace.
[0015] The present invention also provides a three-dimensional network of silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength obtained by the method for preparing the three-dimensional network of silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength as described above, wherein the three-dimensional network of silicon carbide is uniformly distributed in a network shape in the composite aerogel, and the silicon nitride nanowires are uniformly and agglomeratedly distributed inside the three-dimensional network of silicon carbide.
[0016] In one embodiment, the three-dimensional network of silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength has a compressive strength of 13.8 MPa-14.5 MPa.
[0017] In one embodiment, the three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength has no significant weight change in the temperature range of 25° C. to 1300° C. in air, and a thermal conductivity of 0.075-0.087 W / (m·K).
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The present invention provides a method for preparing a three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength. The preparation method uses melamine foam as a precursor, and prepares a three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel in one step through impregnation, room temperature curing and heat treatment reaction.

By utilizing the precursor polymer cracking reaction, the melamine foam is converted into a three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide with a rich pore structure at high temperature, and a three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength is prepared in one step.
[0019] The present invention also provides a three-dimensional network of silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength obtained by the above-mentioned preparation method. The silicon nitride nanowires evenly distributed inside the three-dimensional network of silicon carbide increase the number of micro-nano pores and the frequency of phonon thermal vibrations in the air, so that the aerogel has excellent fire-resistant and heat-insulating properties. The presence of the three-dimensional network of silicon carbide improves the compressive strength of the composite aerogel, so that the compressive strength of the aerogel composite material is improved while maintaining the heat-insulating properties.
[0020] Furthermore, it has been calculated that the compressive strength of the three-dimensional network silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel is 14.5 MPa, which is 4.5 times higher than the maximum compressive stress in the relevant literature of the background technology, and has a high compressive strength.

[0035] In one aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength, comprising the following steps: (1) Polysilazane, xylene and ferrocene are uniformly mixed, wherein the mass ratio of polysilazane to xylene is 1:3-1:5, and the mass ratio of ferrocene to polysilazane is 1:3-1:5, to obtain a mixed solution.
[0036] (2) Immerse the melamine foam in the mixed solution for 12-24 hours, repeatedly squeeze the melamine foam to make it completely soaked in the mixed solution, squeeze out the excess solution, and dry it at room temperature for 7-15 days.

[0057] Example 4 prepared a three-dimensional network of silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength, and its compressive strength was 13.8 MPa.
[0058] See also Figure 1 The XRD spectrum of the three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel prepared in Example 1 is shown, where "♦" represents silicon carbide and "♥" represents silicon nitride, indicating that silicon carbide and silicon nitride were successfully prepared.
[0059] See also Figure 2 The surface of silicon nitride nanowires is smooth and evenly distributed inside the three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide skeleton. Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide is evenly and continuously distributed, and the silicon nitride nanowires are filled inside the three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide skeleton.
[0060] like Figure 2-4 As shown, the three-dimensional network silicon carbide is evenly distributed in the composite aerogel in a network shape, and the silicon nitride nanowires are evenly and agglomeratedly distributed inside the three-dimensional network silicon carbide. Since the silicon carbide ceramic itself has high strength, the three-dimensional network silicon carbide provides good mechanical support for the composite aerogel. At the same time, the presence of silicon nitride nanowires inside the three-dimensional network silicon carbide skeleton increases the number of micro-nano pores in the composite aerogel. The aerogel composite material with this structure has good compressive strength and fire-resistant thermal insulation properties.
[0061] In order to verify the improvement of the mechanical properties and thermal insulation properties of aerogels by the three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel, a compression test and a thermal conductivity test were performed on Example 1.
[0062] See also Figure 5 Compression test curve of the three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength prepared in Example 1. The material can withstand a maximum compression force of 2.72 kN, and the cross-sectional area of the sample is 187.5 mm2 , the maximum compression strength is 14.5MPa.
[0063] See also Figure 6 The thermogravimetric test results of the three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength prepared in Example 1 in the temperature range of 25°C-1300°C in air are shown in FIG.

[0064] See also Figure 7 The 1 cm thick three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength prepared in Example 1 was ignited by an alcohol lamp at 600°C. Infrared thermal imaging test photos showed that the temperature on the back of the material was stable at around 97°C, which can isolate high temperatures of about 500°C. The composite aerogel has good thermal insulation and fire resistance.
[0065] See also Figure 8 The 1 cm thick three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel with high compressive strength prepared in Example 1 was ignited by a butane torch at 1300°C. Infrared thermal imaging test photos showed that the temperature on the back of the material was stable at around 357°C, which can isolate high temperatures of about 900°C. The composite aerogel has good thermal insulation and fire resistance.
[0066] Compression test results are as follows Figure 5 As shown, the maximum compressive force that the three-dimensional network silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel can withstand is 2.72 kN, and the maximum compressive stress that it can withstand is 14.5 MPa. The thermal conductivity of Example 1 was tested using a hotdisk thermal conductivity meter, and its thermal conductivity was 0.08786 W / (m·K). Under the condition of low thermal conductivity (<0.1 W / (m·K)), the compressive stress was 4.5 times higher than the maximum compressive stress in the literature. It is proved that melamine is used as a three-dimensional network silicon carbide precursor, and three-dimensional network silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowires are prepared in one step by pyrolysis of polymer precursors. The obtained three-dimensional network silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogel has excellent compressive strength and thermal insulation properties. See Fig. 9 The original temperature rise curves of the thermal conductivity test of the three-dimensional network-like silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogels with high compressive strength prepared in Example 2, Example 3 and Example 4 were tested by the transient plane hot plate method at room temperature. The temperature rise curves were calculated by the Hotdisk thermal constant analyzer to obtain the thermal constants of Example 2, Example 3 and Example 4 to be 0.07513 W / (m·K), 0.07505 W / (m·K) and 0.07516 W / (m·K), respectively, and the thermal conductivities were low and less than 0.1 W / (m·K).
[0067] As shown Figure 5 and 9 As shown, the thermal conductivity of the three-dimensional network silicon carbide and silicon nitride nanowire composite aerogels is 0.075 W / (m·K)-0.087 W / (m·K), both of which have low thermal conductivity (<0.1 W / (m·K)).
