Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a high-precision and ultra-smooth optical glass and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of glass manufacturing. Background Art
[0002] High-precision optical glass has high refractive index, high light transmittance, high smoothness and low dispersion coefficient. These performance characteristics conform to the development trend of miniaturization of optical components and play a crucial role in simplifying optical systems. With the development of technology, ordinary optical glass with a refractive index between 1.5 and 1.7 has been difficult to meet the stringent requirements of optical devices. High-precision optical glass with a refractive index above 1.9 has become the development direction of high-performance optical glass.
[0003] Chinese Patent CN119038876A discloses a preparation method of a low-stress and high-precision optical glass, including the following steps: S1, raw material preparation; S2, raw material mixing: putting the prepared glass raw materials into the interior of a mixing device, first adding phosphorus pentoxide into the mixing device, then adding zirconia into it, and finally adding titanium dioxide or nano-silicon powder into it for mixing; S3, melting; S4, forming and annealing; S5, polishing; S6, surface cleaning; S7, coating treatment. The low-stress and high-precision optical glass obtained by this patent has a light transmittance that can only reach 85%, a refractive index that can only reach 1.6 at most, and relatively poor smoothness, making it difficult to meet the requirements of high-precision optical glass.
[0004] Chinese Patent CN118324408A discloses a high-precision and ultra-smooth optical glass, characterized in that the composition includes, in mole percentage: SiO2: 24 - 36%; Nb2O5: 18 - 38%; ZrO2: 0.5 - 10%; RO: 7 - 30%; Na2O: 3 - 16%, Al2O3: 1 - 5%; B2O3: 2 - 8%, where RO / Nb2O5 is 0.2 - 1.5, and the RO is the total content of MgO, CaO, SrO, and BaO. The refractive index of the optical glass is 1.70 - 1.74, and the Abbe number is 32 - 37. The high-precision and ultra-smooth optical glass obtained by this patent has a maximum refractive index of 1.74, and at the same time, the Abbe number is relatively small, and the dispersion is relatively serious, not being an ideal high-precision optical glass.
[0005] It can be seen from the above that there are still prominent problems in current high-precision and ultra-smooth optical glass, such as low refractive index, high dispersion coefficient, and poor smoothness. Therefore, it has very important practical significance to prepare high-precision and ultra-smooth optical glass with high refractive index, low dispersion, and high smoothness. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of the deficiencies of the above-mentioned existing technologies, the present invention provides a high-precision ultra-smooth optical glass and a preparation method thereof, achieving the following invention objectives: to prepare a high-precision ultra-smooth optical glass with high refractive index, low dispersion, and high smoothness.
[0007] To achieve the above invention objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A high-precision ultra-smooth optical glass and a preparation method thereof, the raw material composition of the high-precision ultra-smooth optical glass is, by weight: Silica 60 - 100 parts, Aluminum oxide 25 - 70 parts, Sodium oxide 15 - 50 parts, Magnesium oxide 10 - 25 parts, Calcium oxide 10 - 40 parts, Lithium oxide 5 - 25 parts, Flux 5 - 9 parts, Compound fining agent 3 - 10 parts, High light transmittance and high refractive index additive 5 - 13 parts; The flux is sodium tetraborate; The compound fining agent is a mixture of cerium dioxide and aluminum borate; The mass ratio of cerium dioxide to aluminum borate is 10 - 57:100; The high light transmittance and high refractive index additive is a mixture of lanthanum disilicide and samarium disilicide; The mass ratio of lanthanum disilicide to samarium disilicide is 25 - 80:13; The following is a further improvement of the above technical solution: Step 1, melting According to the raw material composition of the high-precision ultra-smooth optical glass by weight, after preliminarily mixing silica, aluminum oxide, sodium oxide, magnesium oxide, calcium oxide, lithium oxide, flux, compound fining agent, and high light transmittance and high refractive index additive evenly, put them into a glass melting furnace, and after a heating and constant temperature process, melt them into a high-temperature glass melt; The heating and constant temperature process, the specific operation is: heat at a rate of 2 - 5 °C / min to 1000 - 1200 °C and keep warm for 30 - 50 minutes, then heat at a rate of 1 - 3 °C / min to 1500 - 1680 °C and keep warm for 1 - 4 hours, and then cool down to 1400 - 1480 °C and keep warm for 20 - 40 minutes.
[0008] Step 2, forming Drain the high-temperature glass melt from the glass kiln through a runner to the casting port and continuously cast it on a mold to obtain a glass sheet, and then anneal and cool the glass sheet to obtain a semi-finished high-precision ultra-smooth optical glass; It is cast on the mold, and the temperature of the mold needs to be pre-constant at 600~700°C in advance; For the annealing, the annealing temperature is 550~600°C, and the annealing time is 1~2 hours; For the cooling, the cooling rate is 3~6°C / min.
[0009] Step 3, polishing Use a single-axis grinding and polishing machine and a polyurethane polishing pad to perform chemical mechanical polishing on the semi-finished high-precision ultra-smooth optical glass, control the spindle speed, swing frame speed, polishing liquid droplet acceleration, and polishing time. After polishing, wash with deionized water and dry with clean compressed air to obtain the finished high-precision ultra-smooth optical glass; The specific composition of the polishing liquid is, by weight: 35~65 parts of cerium oxide abrasive, 10~25 parts of tributyl phosphate, 5~15 parts of composite surfactant, 3~8 parts of mixed acid, 50~80 parts of deionized water; The composite surfactant is a mixture of sodium lauryl polyoxyethylene ether sulfate and isooctyl polyoxyethylene ether JFC-2; The mass ratio of sodium lauryl polyoxyethylene ether sulfate to isooctyl polyoxyethylene ether JFC-2 is 30~90:17; The mixed acid is a mixture of mellitic acid and phosphoric acid, and the mass ratio of the two is 10~47:30; The particle size of the cerium oxide abrasive is 50~400nm; The spindle speed is 60~90 revolutions per minute; The swing frame speed is 25~40 revolutions per minute; The polishing liquid droplet acceleration is 0.5~1mL / min; The polishing time is 3~4.5 hours.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. In the present invention, a clarifying agent composed of a compound of cerium dioxide and aluminum borate is used. Among them, cerium dioxide is a commonly used high-efficiency glass clarifying agent and is also very suitable for optical glass, which can improve the refractive index and light transmittance of optical glass. Aluminum borate cooperates with cerium dioxide, which can particularly effectively improve the clarification effect of the glass melt at high temperature. The decomposition temperature of aluminum borate is relatively high, and the gas generated during decomposition can violently stir the glass melt, promoting the coalescence and discharge of microbubbles. In addition, the boric acid and alumina components after the decomposition of aluminum borate, the residual part that is not discharged from the glass melt in time at high temperature, can also become part of the optical glass, and have no negative impact on the refractive index, light transmittance, and Abbe number of the optical glass; 2. The high-transparency and high-refraction additives added in the present invention, namely the mixture of lanthanum disilicide and samarium disilicide, have relatively low melting points and can be fully melted during the glass melting process. More importantly, the lanthanum ions and samarium ions generated after the melting of these two substances will enter the network structure of the glass melt under the induction of silicon anions, reducing the oxygen packing density and crystallization ability of the glass, thereby increasing the composition content of the amorphous glass network, ultimately increasing the refractive index and light transmittance of the optical glass, increasing the Abbe number, and reducing the dispersion degree; 3. The mixed acid composed of mellitic acid and phosphoric acid is added to the polishing liquid used in the present invention. The most important function of the mixed acid is to adjust and maintain the pH value of the polishing liquid at a medium acidity level to prevent excessive precipitation and particle agglomeration of cerium dioxide polishing powder in a non-acidic environment, resulting in a sharp increase in the size of polishing particles and thus a sharp decline in the polishing effect. The main function of mellitic acid is to complex the finer cerium dioxide particles formed during the polishing process and prevent the agglomeration of fine particles. Phosphoric acid can, through the characteristics of its ternary acid, undergo multi-step ionization during the polishing process to form more ionized acid products, thereby maintaining and buffering the pH value fluctuation of the polishing liquid, keeping the pH value of the polishing liquid fluctuating within a relatively small range, and thus avoiding excessive agglomeration of the particle components in the polishing liquid and instability of the chemical polishing environment components on the glass surface; 4. The composite surfactants added to the polishing liquid in the present invention, namely sodium lauryl polyoxyethylene ether sulfate and isooctyl polyoxyethylene ether JFC-2, have characteristics such as dispersion, emulsification, penetration, solubilization, and wetting. While promoting good dispersion of the particulate matter in the system, more importantly, sodium lauryl polyoxyethylene ether sulfate and isooctyl polyoxyethylene ether JFC-2 can cooperate with mellitic acid to adsorb on the particle surface, making the particle surface negatively charged, and preventing the agglomeration of adjacent particles under the action of electrostatic repulsion. In addition, the long organic molecular chains of sodium lauryl polyoxyethylene ether sulfate and isooctyl polyoxyethylene ether JFC-2 play a steric hindrance role at the outer end, further preventing particle agglomeration; 5. The high-precision and ultra-smooth optical glass prepared in the present invention has a light transmittance of 93 - 94%, a refractive index of 1.92 - 1.96, an Abbe number of 40 - 43, and a surface roughness of 0.211 - 0.232 nm.

[0025] Performance test: For the high-precision ultra-smooth optical glass obtained in Examples 1, 2, 3 and Comparative Examples 1, 2, 3, 4, tests were conducted on indicators such as light transmittance, refractive index, Abbe number, and surface roughness: 1. Light transmittance: The average light transmittance in the visible light band was measured using a UV-visible spectrophotometer (UV-6100); 2. Refractive index: The measurement was carried out according to the test method specified in "GB / T7962.1-2010 Test Methods for Colorless Optical Glass - Part 1: Refractive Index and Dispersion Coefficient"; 3. Abbe number: The measurement was carried out according to the test method specified in "GB / T7962.1-2010 Test Methods for Colorless Optical Glass - Part 1: Refractive Index and Dispersion Coefficient"; 4.

This shows that the mixed acid has a very significant effect on promoting the smoothness of the optical glass polishing process, and the decrease in smoothness also has a negative effect on the light transmittance, refractive index, and dispersion to a certain extent; in the polishing liquid of Comparative Example 4, without adding a composite surfactant, the light transmittance of Comparative Example 4 decreased to 89%, the refractive index also decreased significantly, the Abbe number decreased slightly, and the surface roughness increased to 0.776 nm.
