Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of thermal insulation tile composite materials, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a high-strength thermal insulation tile composite material. Background Art

[0002] Thermal insulation tiles are a material with high-efficiency thermal insulation properties, usually made of a composite of ceramic, carbon fiber or other special materials. When an aircraft flies at high speed in the atmosphere, the intense friction with the air will generate extremely high temperatures. Thermal insulation tiles are an important component of the protection system on the surface of the aircraft. They can isolate high temperatures when flying at high speeds or re-entering the atmosphere, and can effectively block heat from entering the interior of the aircraft, protecting the aircraft's structure and internal equipment from high-temperature damage, ensuring the safe operation of the aircraft.

[0003] With the continuous increase in aircraft flight speed and increasingly stringent flight performance requirements, higher requirements are placed on the strength of thermal insulation tiles. High-strength thermal insulation tiles can not only better withstand the aerodynamic loads and mechanical stresses during flight, but also ensure structural stability in high-temperature environments, avoiding problems such as breakage and falling off due to insufficient strength, thereby improving the safety and reliability of aircraft.

[0004] At present, the preparation method of high-strength thermal insulation tile composite materials mainly adopts the fiber reinforcement method, which improves the strength by adding fiber reinforcements such as quartz fiber and carbon fiber to the matrix material. However, the interface bonding performance between the fiber and the matrix is ​​poor, and there is a problem of uneven dispersion between the fiber and the matrix, which easily leads to the local strength of the thermal insulation tile composite material being too high or too low, affecting the overall performance of the composite material. CN118851783A discloses high-strength, low-thermal-conductivity ceramic fiber cotton-based insulation tiles and a preparation method thereof. Specifically, the invention discloses mixing a high-temperature binder and a soluble starch to obtain a mixed powder, dispersing the mixed powder in anhydrous ethanol and stirring evenly to obtain a mixed liquid; dispersing the dispersant in high-purity water and stirring evenly to obtain a solvent; adding the mixed liquid and ceramic fiber cotton to the solvent, stirring and dispersing evenly to obtain a mixed slurry; pouring the mixed slurry into a mold, vacuum filtering, and obtaining a wet blank; and drying and sintering the wet blank to obtain the ceramic fiber cotton-based insulation tile. This patent adds a dispersant to the solvent, which is conducive to the dispersion of fiber cotton. The resulting thermal insulation tile material has a room temperature compressive strength of 3.9 MPa and an average linear expansion coefficient of 0.32×10 -6 / ℃(RT~700℃); Although the thermal insulation tile material obtained by this patent improves the compressive strength and reduces the linear expansion coefficient to a certain extent, its strength will drop rapidly in an environment above 1000°C, affecting its use in ultra-high temperature environments.

[0005] In addition, during the research and development process, technicians also found that in a high-temperature environment with rapid temperature rise, the insulation tile composite material is prone to cracks, which in turn destroys the overall structure, reduces the mechanical properties, and ultimately shortens the service life of the insulation tile composite material.

[0025] The present invention prepares a thermal insulation tile composite material, using boron nitride particles and zirconium oxide fibers as a matrix and boron nitride nanowires as a reinforcement. The boron nitride nanowires have good high-temperature resistance, low thermal conductivity, good thermal insulation performance, and can hinder crack propagation. Specifically, the boron nitride nanowires are first treated with oxygen plasma. High-energy particles bombard the surface of the boron nitride nanowires, causing them to undergo an oxidation reaction, thereby introducing hydroxyl and carboxyl oxygen-containing functional groups on the surface of the boron nitride nanowires, thereby increasing the surface activity. The composite sol is then treated. The composite sol is prepared by combining yttrium oxide sol and silica sol. During the sol mixing process, Y 3+It will react with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the silica sol to form YO-Si bonds, thereby generating yttrium oxide-silica composite sol, forming a stable sol network structure. After the oxygen plasma-treated boron nitride nanowires are impregnated, an yttrium oxide-silica ceramic phase will be formed, which will bond the boron nitride nanowires together to obtain a porous skeleton structure, providing strength support for the thermal insulation tile composite material, and improving its mechanical properties, thermal insulation properties and high temperature resistance. In the preparation step of the boron nitride particle / zirconia fiber composite, an alumina coating is first coated on the surface of the zirconia fiber to improve the toughness and high temperature resistance of the fiber, and to improve the compatibility with the boron nitride particles. The boron nitride particles are then carboxylated, and acyl chloride groups are introduced through thionyl chloride. Then, amino compounds such as p-phenylenediamine and glycine are added. , which undergoes an amidation reaction with the acyl chloride group, and the amino group can combine with the aluminum oxide on the surface of the zirconia fiber, ultimately enhancing the bonding force between the boron nitride particles and the zirconia fiber, forming a three-dimensional network structure, which can enhance the strength and stability of the thermal insulation tile composite material; in the molding step, ammonium polyacrylate is used as a dispersant and a coupling agent is used as an interface compatibilizer to improve the bonding between the zirconia fiber, boron nitride nanowires and the interface of the boron nitride particles, enhance the compatibility with ammonium polyacrylate, and thus obtain a molding slurry with good homogeneity; the present invention adopts a combination of specific components and specific methods, which ultimately improves the strength and thermal insulation properties of the thermal insulation tile composite material, and improves the strength retention rate at high temperature, avoids cracks when used in a high temperature environment, and ensures the stability of the composite material.

[0026] Comparative Example 1 On the basis of Example 3, the following changes are made: (1) In the impregnation step of the modified boron nitride nanowires, the composite glue solution was replaced with solution 2 in equal amounts; the preparation method of the solution 2 was as follows: 4.0 g of ethyl orthosilicate was added to 100 mL of anhydrous ethanol, stirred evenly, and then 25 wt % nitric acid solution was added to adjust the pH to 2.3, and stirred at 42° C. for 30 min to obtain solution 2; (2) In the molding step, the operation step of "adding 1.0 g of kH792 and 1.0 g of isopropyl tris(dioctyl pyrophosphate) titanate and stirring the reaction at 55°C for 1.0 h" was omitted; The rest of the operations remain unchanged.

[0027] Comparative Example 1 only uses silicon dioxide to treat boron nitride nanowires, which will reduce the strength performance of the composite material on the one hand and the high-temperature stability on the other hand. In addition, Comparative Example 1 also omits the coupling agent component in the molding step, resulting in weak interfacial bonding between the components and uneven molding slurry, which ultimately reduces the strength, toughness and high-temperature stability of the composite material.

[0028] Comparative Example 2 On the basis of Example 3, the following changes are made: The steps of preparing the boron nitride particle / zirconia fiber composite are as follows: 12.5 g of boron nitride particles are placed in 120 g of mixed acid solution for ball milling, the ball milling time is 120 min, the ball milling speed is 210 rpm, the ball-to-material ratio is 3:1, the grinding balls are zirconia balls, and the ball milling temperature is 63° C. After the ball milling is completed, the solid matter is filtered out, washed and dried to obtain acid-treated boron nitride particles; 13.5 g of acid-treated boron nitride particles are placed in 120 g of N,N-dimethylformamide, after stirring evenly, 3.0 g of untreated zirconia fiber is added, and the mixture is stirred at 60° C. for 40 min at a stirring speed of 250 rpm. After the stirring is completed, the mixture is filtered, washed and dried to obtain the boron nitride particle / zirconia fiber composite; The particle size of the boron nitride particles is 70 nm; The mixed acid solution is a mixture of concentrated nitric acid and concentrated sulfuric acid, the volume ratio of the concentrated nitric acid to the concentrated sulfuric acid is 1:3; the mass concentration of the concentrated nitric acid is 68%, and the mass concentration of the concentrated sulfuric acid is 87%; The length of the zirconia fiber is 8.5 μm and the diameter is 20 nm; The rest of the operations remain unchanged.

[0029] In Comparative Example 2, the boron nitride particles were acid-treated and then directly mixed with untreated zirconia fibers. On the one hand, no aluminum oxide layer was formed on the surface of the zirconia fibers, which would result in a toughening effect on the zirconia fibers. In addition, the zirconia fibers and the acid-treated boron nitride particles were only physically mixed, resulting in poor interface bonding, which in turn reduced the thermal insulation performance and the strength and stability of the composite material.
