Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of silicon dioxide synthesis, and in particular to a flame synthesis method and device for zero-hydroxyl, micron-sized silicon dioxide particles. Background Art
[0002] High-purity silica particles are the basic material for preparing quartz crucibles and quartz glass. With the rapid development of the semiconductor and photovoltaic industries, more and more quartz crucibles and quartz glass are needed, which has significantly increased the demand for high-purity silica particles.
[0003] Currently, high-purity silica particles are primarily produced through quartz ore purification and chemical synthesis. Quartz ore purification is complex, making it difficult to achieve the purity required for the inner sand layer of a quartz crucible (99.998%). Quartz ore is also expensive. Chemical methods include flame synthesis and sol-gel synthesis. Flame synthesis typically produces silica particles through a high-temperature flame combustion reaction of a silicon-containing precursor. While extremely pure (over 99.999%), the resulting silica particles are suitable for scalable production. However, the resulting silica particles are too small (nanoscale) and have a high hydroxyl content, making them unsuitable for use in traditional quartz crucible production. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In response to the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a flame synthesis method and apparatus for producing zero-hydroxyl, micron-sized silica particles. The method controls the particle size of the silica particles by adjusting parameters such as the blower wind speed and flame temperature to obtain micron-sized silica particles of a required size. Hydrogen-free silicon-containing precursors and fuels are used, and water-containing air in the reaction system is exhausted through dry air, thereby eliminating hydroxyl groups.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the first aspect of the present invention provides a flame synthesis method for zero-hydroxyl, micron-sized silica particles, comprising the following steps:
[0006] S1, dry air enters the reactor and the wet air in the reactor is discharged, and the silicon-containing precursor, oxygen and fuel enter the burner installed on the top of the reactor. The flame generated by the combustion is sprayed vertically downward into the reaction chamber in the reactor to generate primary silica particles;
[0007] Wherein, the silicon-containing precursor and the fuel do not contain hydrogen;
[0008] S2, a variable frequency blower located at the center of the bottom of the reaction chamber blows air upward, and the air enters the reaction chamber through the conical mesh fairing. The primary silica particles are suspended in the reaction chamber under the action of the upward wind and continuously collide, aggregate, and grow into final silica particles, which fall to the bottom of the reaction chamber under the action of gravity;
[0009] The wind speed of the blower is: ;
[0010] Where g is the acceleration due to gravity (m / s 2 ), ρ p and ρ Final silica particle density (kg / m 3 ) and dry air density (kg / m 3 ), dp is the final silica particle diameter (m), C D is the drag coefficient, which takes a value of 25.
[0011] The present invention uses a variable-frequency blower to blow air upward, which enters the reaction chamber through a fairing and acts on the primary silica particles produced by combustion, increasing their collision probability and residence time to increase their particle size. When they reach the micron level, they fall to the bottom of the reaction chamber under the action of gravity. The blower speed is calculated using a formula, and the particle size of the silica particles can be controlled by adjusting the blower speed. Dry air is introduced into the reactor to remove moisture from the reactor, and hydrogen-free silicon precursors and fuels are used to eliminate hydrogen-containing substances in the combustion products, preventing the presence of hydroxyl groups in the silica particles. The resulting silica particles have a purity of over 99.998%.
[0012] Furthermore, the silicon-containing precursor is carried into the burner by a carrier gas, and the carrier gas is nitrogen or argon.
[0013] Furthermore, the diameter of the primary silica particles is 0.1-1 μm, and the diameter of the final silica particles is greater than 10 μm.
[0014] Furthermore, the silicon-containing precursor is SiCl4 or SiF4, and the fuel is CO or CS2.
[0015] Furthermore, the purity of the silicon-containing precursor, oxygen and fuel is above 99.99%.
[0016] Furthermore, the wind speed of the blower is 0.1-0.1 m / s.
[0017] Furthermore, the equivalence ratio of the fuel to oxygen is 0.5-0.8.
[0018] Furthermore, the temperature of the flame is 800-1500°C.
[0019] The present invention adjusts the equivalence ratio of fuel to oxygen to reduce the flame temperature so as to increase the size of initial silicon dioxide nanoparticles.
[0020] Furthermore, the conical mesh fairing has a cone angle of 60°-120°, and the mesh length and width are independently 0.1-0.5 mm. The mesh size of the upper portion of the conical mesh fairing is smaller than that of the lower portion, with the upper portion comprising 40%-60% of the fairing height, and the remainder in the lower portion. The mesh of the fairing is arranged so that it is finer at the top and coarser at the bottom, resulting in uneven wind speed within the reaction chamber, which forms vortices. The wind speed at the periphery is greater than that at the center, increasing the residence time of particles within the reaction chamber and the probability of collision, which facilitates the formation of large particles.
[0021] Furthermore, the silicon-containing precursor, oxygen and fuel are respectively inputted through the central channel of the burner, the sub-central channel surrounding the central channel and the external channel surrounding the sub-central channel.
[0022] The second aspect of the present invention provides a flame synthesis device for zero-hydroxyl, micron-sized silica particles, for implementing the synthesis method described in the first aspect, comprising a reactor and a reaction chamber located in the reactor;
[0023] A burner mounted on the reactor is provided just above the top opening of the reaction chamber, a conical mesh fairing is provided at the bottom opening of the reaction chamber, and a variable frequency blower is provided below the conical mesh fairing;
[0024] A dry air inlet and an exhaust port are provided in the middle of the reactor. The dry air inlet is connected to the dryer and the blower respectively, and the exhaust port is connected to the induced draft fan.
[0025] Furthermore, the burner is a multi-channel annular burner, including a central channel, a sub-central channel surrounding the central channel, and an outer channel surrounding the sub-central channel.
[0026] Furthermore, it also includes a blower air inlet pipe extending from the bottom of the reaction chamber into the reaction chamber, the cone-shaped mesh fairing is installed on the top of the blower air inlet pipe, and the bottom is sealed and connected to the reaction chamber.
[0027] Beneficial effects of the present invention:
[0028] The present invention uses a variable frequency blower to blow air upward, and the air enters the reaction chamber through a fairing, acting on the primary silica particles produced by combustion, increasing the collision probability and residence time of the primary silica particles to increase the particle size. When the particles reach the micron level, they fall to the bottom of the reaction chamber under the action of gravity. The wind speed of the blower is calculated using a formula, and the particle size of the silica particles can be controlled by adjusting the wind speed of the blower.
[0029] The present invention adjusts the equivalence ratio of fuel to oxygen to reduce the flame temperature so as to increase the size of initial silicon dioxide nanoparticles.
[0030] The present invention arranges the grid of the fairing to be fine at the top and coarse at the bottom, so that the wind speed in the reaction chamber is uneven, thereby forming a vortex, and the wind speed at the periphery is greater than that at the center, which increases the residence time of particles in the reaction chamber and increases the collision probability, thereby facilitating the formation of large particles.
[0031] The present invention introduces dry air into the reactor to expel moisture from the reactor, and uses silicon-containing precursors and fuels that do not contain hydrogen elements, so that no hydrogen-containing substances are produced in the combustion products, thereby avoiding the presence of hydroxyl groups in the silicon dioxide particles. The purity of the obtained silicon dioxide particles is as high as over 99.998%. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
