Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of coating materials, and particularly relates to a composite coating based on ultrahigh-temperature ceramic material and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Solar thermal technology, as an effective way to convert solar energy into usable heat energy, has been widely used in solar thermal power generation, seawater desalination, industrial heating and regional heating, and other fields, providing important support for achieving low-carbon and green development of society.

[0003] Spectrum-selective absorbing coatings (SSACs) play a crucial role in solar thermal systems, and their performance directly determines the efficiency of the system. Ideal SSACs need to have special optical properties: in the main spectral range of solar radiation (0.3-2.5 μm), they should have extremely high absorption (greater than 0.9) to maximize the capture of solar photon energy, which is the basis for achieving high-efficiency photo-thermal conversion. In the mid-infrared-infrared region (2.5-20 μm), they should have a low emissivity (less than 0.3). In this waveband, if the coating has a high reflectivity, it means that a large amount of absorbed solar energy will be reflected back to the environment in the form of infrared radiation, which not only reduces the utilization efficiency of solar energy, but also leads to the waste of thermal energy. Low reflectivity can ensure that as much absorbed solar energy as possible is retained inside the coating and converted into useful heat energy, thereby significantly improving the photo-thermal conversion efficiency. At the same time, low emissivity can inhibit heat loss due to thermal radiation, allowing absorbed solar energy to be effectively stored in the system for a long time.

[0004] Currently, researchers have developed various types of spectrum-selective absorbing coatings by innovating material systems and carefully designing microstructures. In practical applications, SSACs are usually used in a vacuum environment. Vacuum environment can significantly reduce thermal conductivity and effectively reduce convective heat loss, providing ideal conditions for the coating to exhibit its high-efficiency photo-thermal conversion performance. In some high-precision solar experimental devices and space applications with strict requirements for heat loss, SSACs in a vacuum environment can work stably and efficiently.

[0005] However, the actual application scenarios are much more complex than the ideal conditions. Considering the possible accidental vacuum leakage, and in the application scenarios where the vacuum environment cannot be maintained, such as high-concentration solar tower receivers, long-term exposure to open air environment, it is particularly important to study the thermal stability of SSACs in air environment. In air, the coating faces more complex and demanding challenges, the presence of oxygen, water vapor and various corrosive gases can easily cause oxidation, corrosion and other problems of the coating, thereby destroying the coating structure and causing a sharp decline in its optical performance and thermal stability. Especially in high-temperature solar thermal utilization scenarios, such as solar tower power generation systems, the working temperature of the receiver is often as high as 700 DEG C or even higher. Under such high-temperature air environment, ordinary coatings are prone to performance deterioration in a short time, which seriously affects the power generation efficiency, increases the equipment maintenance cost and operation risk.

[0022] The application provides a preparation method of a composite coating based on ultra-high temperature ceramic material.

[0023] The preparation process of the application has the following advantages:

[0024] 1) The titanium nitride infrared reflection layer is prepared by multi-arc ion plating

[0025] Structural advantages: Multi-arc ion plating technology can make titanium nitride particles uniformly deposited on the substrate surface, forming a dense coating structure. Under given sputtering conditions, the growth of titanium nitride can be precisely controlled to obtain good crystal orientation, which is beneficial to improve the density and integrity of the coating.

[0026] Performance effect: The vacuum degree, titanium target current, nitrogen sputtering gas pressure, substrate DC negative bias and deposition time, etc. jointly act on the titanium nitride infrared reflection layer to make it have high infrared reflectivity, effectively reflect infrared light in the infrared band, reduce heat absorption, and at the same time, it is firmly combined with the substrate, has good mechanical properties and chemical stability.

[0027] 2) Use magnetic control sputtering to prepare hafnium carbide-hafnium boride composite ceramic absorption layer

[0028] Structural advantages: Through double-target co-sputtering technology, the deposition ratio and rate of hafnium carbide and hafnium boride can be precisely controlled to form a uniform, dense and composition-controllable composite ceramic absorption layer on the substrate. Under given sputtering conditions, nanoscale grain size and fine microstructure can be obtained, which is beneficial to improve the optical absorption performance of the absorption layer.

[0029] Performance effect: Lower vacuum degree, appropriate argon flow rate, and specific target power and deposition time make the hafnium carbide-hafnium boride composite ceramic absorption layer have high absorption rate for visible light and near-infrared light in the solar spectrum, effectively absorb solar radiation energy, and at the same time have good high-temperature resistance and chemical stability, can maintain stable performance in high-temperature environment.

[0030] 3) Use magnetic control sputtering to prepare aluminum oxide anti-reflection layer

[0031] Structural advantages: Under given sputtering conditions, the aluminum oxide anti-reflection layer has uniform thickness and good optical flatness, its microstructure is dense and has no obvious defects, and it can be well combined with the underlying hafnium carbide-hafnium boride composite ceramic absorption layer and the upper titanium nitride infrared reflection layer to form a stable multilayer structure.

[0032] Performance effect: The aluminum oxide anti-reflection layer can reduce the reflectivity of the coating surface, increase the transmittance of solar radiation, so that more light can enter the hafnium carbide-hafnium boride composite ceramic absorption layer and be absorbed, thereby improving the solar absorption efficiency of the entire coating, and at the same time, it can also play a protective role for the underlying absorption layer and reflection layer, improving the weather resistance and chemical stability of the coating.

[0033] 4) Annealing treatment

[0034] Structural advantages: annealing treatment can make the grains in the coating further grow and perfect, reduce the lattice defects, improve the crystalline quality and structural stability of the coating. Under the condition of air, with a certain heating rate and annealing temperature, a stable oxide layer is formed on the surface of the coating, which improves the oxidation resistance of the coating.

[0035] Performance effect: annealing treatment can improve the optical performance of the coating, make the interface between the layers more closely, improve the overall mechanical properties and stability of the coating, and help the coating maintain good solar spectrum selective absorption performance during long-term use.

[0036] The contribution of each layer of ceramic material prepared by the present application to the selective absorption of solar spectrum is:

[0037] 1) Titanium nitride infrared reflection layer: the main contribution is to reflect the infrared light in the solar spectrum. Titanium nitride has high infrared reflectivity, which can reflect most of the infrared light and reduce the absorption of infrared light, thereby reducing the absorption rate of the coating in the infrared band, improving the spectral selectivity of the coating, and minimizing the absorption of infrared light while absorbing visible light, reducing the heat loss of the coating.

[0038] 2) Hafnium carbide-hafnium boride composite ceramic absorption layer: it is the main functional layer of solar spectrum selective absorption. Hafnium carbide and hafnium boride have unique optical absorption characteristics, with high absorption rate for visible light and near-infrared light, which can absorb most of the visible light and near-infrared light in solar radiation and convert it into heat energy, thereby improving the absorption efficiency of the coating to solar energy, and is the key layer to achieve high absorption rate of the coating.

[0039] 3) Alumina anti-reflection layer: it has little contribution to the absorption of solar spectrum, but it can reduce the reflectivity of the coating surface, increase the transmittance of light in each band of solar spectrum into the coating, and make more light reach the hafnium carbide-hafnium boride composite ceramic absorption layer to be absorbed, thereby indirectly improving the absorption efficiency of the coating to solar energy, and also improving the optical performance of the coating, making the coating have better spectral selectivity.

[0040] The present application uses titanium nitride infrared reflection layer, hafnium carbide-hafnium boride composite ceramic absorption layer and alumina anti-reflection layer to construct a composite coating, which has the following synergistic effects:

[0041] High solar absorption efficiency: the hafnium carbide-hafnium boride composite ceramic absorption layer is responsible for absorbing most of the visible light and near-infrared light, the titanium nitride infrared reflection layer reflects the infrared light to reduce heat loss, and the alumina anti-reflection layer improves the light transmittance, so that more light is absorbed by the absorption layer. The three work together to achieve high-efficiency absorption of solar energy by the coating, thereby improving the solar absorption efficiency.

[0042] Good spectral selectivity: the titanium nitride infrared reflection layer reduces the infrared absorption rate, the hafnium carbide-hafnium boride composite ceramic absorption layer increases the visible light and near-infrared light absorption rate, and the alumina anti-reflection layer optimizes the optical performance. The three layers work together to make the coating have good selectivity in the entire solar spectrum range, can selectively absorb visible light and near-infrared light, and reflect infrared light, thereby improving the photo-thermal conversion efficiency of the coating.

[0043] Excellent stability and durability: the titanium nitride infrared reflection layer, the hafnium carbide-hafnium boride composite ceramic absorption layer and the alumina anti-reflection layer each have good chemical stability and mechanical properties, and the three layers are combined tightly to form a stable multilayer structure. Annealing treatment further improves the crystalline quality and interface bonding strength of the coating, so that the coating has excellent stability and durability, and can maintain good solar spectral selective absorption performance in the long-term use process and resist the erosion and damage of the external environment.
