Description

Currently, methods for preparing flexible ceramic films made of silicon nitride nanowires primarily include chemical vapor deposition (CVD), carbothermal reduction, and direct nitridation. Chinese invention patent publication number CN118083923A discloses a method for mass-producing silicon nitride nanowires by directly reacting solid-phase silicon sources SiO2 and Si with N2 via carbothermal reduction or direct nitridation to produce silicon nitride. During the preparation process, carbon paper is folded into a wavy shape to assist in controlling the nucleation and growth of silicon nitride. Cyclic charging and degassing is used to generate an oscillating N2 pressure to regulate the reaction process. This preparation method primarily utilizes the wavy carbon paper to promote the preferential growth of silicon nitride nanowires, and the constant regulation of N2 pressure is required.

[0027] The present invention provides a device and method for batch producing silicon nitride nanowire flexible ceramic films.

[0028] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the first aspect, a device for batch production of silicon nitride nanowire flexible ceramic films is provided, which includes a box-type furnace body 1, a lifting platform 2, a reaction chamber, an open space, an air inlet 5, an air outlet 6, an air inlet 7 and a graphite mold placed in the reaction chamber; the open space is arranged at the bottom of the box-type furnace body 1, and the lifting platform 2 is arranged at the bottom of the box-type furnace body 1, and the lifting platform 2 is inside the open space; the reaction chamber is composed of a plurality of bricks, and the reaction chamber can be disassembled to put in raw materials or take out products, and the reaction chamber is arranged above the lifting platform 2; the inner wall of the box-type furnace body 1 and the outer wall of the reaction chamber are arranged closely, and a plurality of air inlets 7 and air inlets 5 arranged in an array are respectively provided on the side walls on the same side of the box-type furnace body 1 and the reaction chamber, and the air inlet 7 and the air inlet 5 are aligned, and a plurality of vertically arranged air outlets 6 and the air outlet are respectively provided on the side walls on the opposite side, and the air outlet 6 and the air outlet are aligned.

[0029] More specifically, an open space is located at the bottom of the box-type furnace body 1. This open space, constructed from a cubical frame, provides ample space for loading and unloading the reaction chamber. A lifting platform 2 is located at the bottom of the box-type furnace body 1, within the open space. Lifting platform 2 is an electric push-rod platform consisting of a tabletop and a lifting rod located in the middle of the tabletop. The electric push-rod controls the height of lifting platform 2.

[0030] The reaction chamber is constructed from a number of bricks, preferably alumina ceramic bricks 4, joined together in a mortise and tenon-jointed pattern. Alumina ceramic bricks 4 exhibit excellent high-temperature resistance and chemical stability, maintaining structural stability in high-temperature reaction environments. The mortise and tenon-jointed structure ensures the reaction chamber's sealing and structural stability, while also facilitating its disassembly for loading raw materials or removing products. The reaction chamber is positioned above a lift platform 2, which allows for adjustment of its position.

[0031] The inner wall of the box-type furnace body 1 and the outer wall of the reaction chamber are positioned in close proximity to ensure uniform nitrogen flow. A plurality of inlet holes 7 and an inlet port 5 are arranged in an array on one side wall of the box-type furnace body 1 and the reaction chamber, respectively. The inlet holes 7 and the inlet port 5 are aligned to facilitate uniform entry of the reaction gas. A plurality of vertically arranged outlet holes 6 and an outlet port 5 are also provided on the opposite side wall, aligned to allow the reaction gas to be discharged.

[0032] Several sets of inlet pipes are connected to the inlet port 7 and the inlet port 5. These inlet pipes are mounted on a pipe rack. The inlet pipes are connected to a gas source to provide the gases required for the reaction. An air pump is connected to the inlet pipes to control the flow and pressure of the gas. A flow meter is installed on the inlet pipes to control the inlet flow rate and ensure accurate supply of the reaction gases. Several exhaust bottles are connected to the outlet port 7 to collect and process the exhaust gases generated during the reaction.

[0033] The apertures of the air inlet 7 and the air inlet 5 are equal, the apertures of the air outlet 6 and the air outlet are equal, and the apertures of the air inlet 7 and the air inlet 5 are smaller than the apertures of the air outlet 6 and the air outlet. This design ensures smooth flow of the reaction gas in the reaction chamber and prevents pressure accumulation due to obstruction of gas flow.

[0034] A heating mechanism is installed on the inner wall of the reaction chamber to provide the high temperature environment required for the reaction. A control panel 3 is installed on the outside of the box furnace body. The control panel is electrically connected to the heating mechanism and is used to control the temperature inside the reaction chamber to achieve precise control of the reaction process.

[0035] The graphite mold is placed in the reaction chamber to support the raw silicon dioxide and carbon nanotubes and the formed silicon nitride nanowire flexible ceramic film. Figure 4 The graphite mold consists of a carrier plate and four sets of L-shaped limit blocks at its four corners. The carrier plate is used to place the reaction raw materials, and the L-shaped limit blocks are used to define the shape and size of the formed silicon nitride nanowire flexible ceramic film, ensuring product consistency and specifications.

[0036] The working process of this device is as follows: First, the reaction chamber is disassembled in an open space, and a graphite mold containing raw materials is placed in it, and then the reaction chamber is reassembled and sealed. The reaction chamber is raised to an appropriate position by the lifting platform 2 so that the inner wall of the box furnace body 1 and the outer wall of the reaction chamber are in close contact. Start the control panel 3, set the reaction temperature, and heat the reaction chamber by the heating mechanism. At the same time, the reaction gas is introduced into the reaction chamber through the air inlet pipe, and the gas enters the reaction chamber through the air inlet 7 and the air inlet 5. The gas after the reaction is discharged through the air outlet 6 and the air outlet and is collected in the tail gas bottle. After the reaction is completed, the heating mechanism and the gas source are turned off. After the reaction chamber cools down, the reaction chamber is lowered by the lifting platform 2, the reaction chamber is disassembled, and the finished silicon nitride nanowire flexible ceramic film in the graphite mold is taken out.

[0037] Through a rational structural design and precise control system, this device achieves mass production of silicon nitride nanowire flexible ceramic films, characterized by high production efficiency and stable product quality. The detachable design of the reaction chamber facilitates the loading of raw materials and the removal of products. The provision of a lifting platform 2 simplifies the operating process and improves production efficiency. The design of the air inlet and outlet systems ensures the uniform distribution and smooth flow of the reaction gases, which is conducive to the full progress of the reaction. The combination of the heating mechanism and the control panel 3 enables precise control of the reaction temperature, ensuring the stability of product quality. The design of the graphite mold ensures the consistency of product specifications and meets the requirements of mass production.

[0038] Further preferably, the reaction chamber is constructed of zirconia ceramic tiles, with the reaction chamber formed by a plurality of zirconia ceramic tiles interlocked in a mortise and tenon arrangement. The graphite mold includes a support plate and four sets of T-shaped limit blocks positioned at the four corners of the support plate. Zirconia ceramic tiles have higher heat resistance and mechanical strength than alumina ceramic tiles, making them suitable for higher-temperature reaction environments. T-shaped limit blocks offer better positioning and greater stability than L-shaped limit blocks, enabling more precise control of the shape and size of the silicon nitride nanowire flexible ceramic film.

[0039] Further preferably, the air inlet hole 7 and the air inlet port 5 are connected with six or more groups of air inlet pipes, the air inlet pipes are arranged on an air pipe rack with adjustable height, and the inlet of the air inlet pipes is connected to a mixed gas source; a digital air pump is connected to the air inlet pipe, and an electronic flow meter is arranged on the air inlet pipe, which is connected to the control panel 3 for real-time monitoring and adjustment of the intake flow.

[0040] Multiple inlet pipes ensure uniform gas supply, while an adjustable-height gas pipe rack accommodates reaction chambers of varying heights. The mixed gas source provides a variety of gas mixtures to meet diverse reaction conditions. A digital gas pump and electronic flowmeter enhance the accuracy of gas flow control. Connection to the control panel 3 enables real-time monitoring and automatic adjustment of gas flow.

Cut graphite paper to match the size of the graphite mold and cover the mixed powder in the graphite mold.
