Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of energy and chemical industry, and particularly relates to a system for supercritical hydrothermal synthesis of nano-barium titanate and a quality control method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Traditional hydrothermal synthesis method usually utilizes high-temperature aqueous solution to promote the hydrolysis and crystallization of inorganic precursors in a sealed high-pressure container, and has been widely used for the preparation of nanomaterials, including functional ceramic materials such as barium titanate. This method has mild reaction conditions and relatively simple operation. However, the traditional hydrothermal method also has obvious shortcomings. First, due to the limitation of static kettle type reaction environment, the mass transfer and heat transfer efficiency of the reaction system is low, which easily leads to uneven reaction, obvious local concentration and temperature gradient, and the composition and structure of the product often lack consistency. Second, the particle size distribution of the nanoparticles synthesized by the traditional hydrothermal method is wide, and it is difficult to achieve precise control of the particle size. During the reaction process, nucleation and growth are difficult to separate, and a large number of particles of different sizes may exist in the same batch, resulting in poor product uniformity. In addition, the morphology of the generated particles is often uncontrollable, and agglomerated or irregularly shaped particles are easily generated, which poses a challenge to applications requiring regular morphology.

[0003] Supercritical hydrothermal synthesis technology is an improved method proposed to solve the above problems. When water is in a supercritical state beyond the critical point, its physical and chemical properties change significantly: the viscosity decreases, the diffusion coefficient increases, it is similar to a gas but the density is still high, and the dielectric constant decreases, changing its solubility for inorganic salt precursors. These characteristics enable the reactants to mix instantaneously and nucleate rapidly in a supercritical hydrothermal environment, greatly shortening the nucleation induction period and reaction time. Compared with the traditional hydrothermal method, supercritical hydrothermal synthesis can complete the preparation of nanomaterials in a few seconds to a few minutes, significantly improving the reaction efficiency. In addition, the product particles generated under supercritical conditions are often smaller and more uniform, which helps to obtain nanocrystals with narrow particle size distribution. More importantly, supercritical hydrothermal synthesis is suitable for the use of continuous flow reactors, enabling continuous production of the reaction, breaking through the capacity limit of traditional batch kettle reactions. In a supercritical continuous flow reaction system, by precisely controlling the flow rate, pressure and temperature, the reaction conditions can be kept constant, ensuring the quality of the products in each batch to be stable and consistent, and the continuous process is easy to scale up, which is beneficial to industrialization. However, supercritical hydrothermal technology also faces some challenges. For example, the harsh supercritical conditions require high-temperature and high-pressure resistance and corrosion resistance of the equipment materials; the rapid generation of solid-phase products during the reaction process easily causes pipeline blockage, and optimization of mixing and cooling strategies is needed to avoid particle aggregation or deposition. Therefore, how to design an efficient and stable supercritical hydrothermal reaction system to fully utilize its advantages of rapid nucleation and limited growth while overcoming equipment and process difficulties is the key to the industrial application of this technology.

[0004] Barium titanate is the core dielectric material for manufacturing multilayer ceramic capacitors. With the development of electronic components towards miniaturization and high performance, higher requirements are put forward for the quality of barium titanate powder. On the one hand, barium titanate particles are required to have nanoscale size and narrow particle size distribution to improve the dielectric constant and ensure the reliability of the device. On the other hand, the crystal phase composition and dielectric temperature stability of barium titanate are often adjusted by doping modification or surface coating. This requires uniform introduction of the second component and accurate control of its content during synthesis. These composite modification methods require higher requirements for the process, and need to achieve uniform distribution of different components on a nanoscale. In summary, the existing technology cannot meet the requirements of high-efficiency continuous production and high-quality product control, and an innovative synthesis strategy is needed to simultaneously improve reaction uniformity and efficiency, achieve precise control of the particle size, morphology and structure of barium titanate nanoparticles, and be suitable for large-scale continuous production.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects: (1) Structural design innovation: the modular system architecture is adopted, and the raw material pretreatment, the multi-stage reaction, the rapid cooling crystallization and the product collection and other functional units are organically combined. Through the double mixing design of the jet collision mixer and the Laval mixer, the high-speed and uniform mixing of the reactants is realized, the reaction uniformity is significantly improved, and the performance fluctuation caused by insufficient local mixing in the traditional process is avoided. The overall structure is compact and easy to control, and embodies the unique design idea for the optimization of the synthesis of nano materials.

[0017] (2) Process continuous and efficient: A continuous flow supercritical hydrothermal reaction system is constructed, which greatly improves the production efficiency and process stability compared with the traditional batch hydrothermal method. The reactants continuously enter the multi-stage reactor under the drive of high-pressure metering pumps, and the products are continuously produced after the reaction reaches a steady state, eliminating the fluctuations and downtime caused by batch processing. This continuous production method not only improves the output per unit time, but also ensures consistent product quality, facilitating industrial scaling and long-term stable operation.

[0018] (3) Precise control of particle size and morphology: Through the integration of multiple means, precise control of the size and morphology of barium titanate nanoparticles is achieved. By adjusting the number of reactors in series or parallel in the multi-stage reaction module or changing the residence time of the material, the particle size can be adjusted. By monitoring the pH online and adjusting the amount of additives in real time, the ideal reaction environment is maintained to control the crystal growth rate and morphology. At the same time, by changing the ratio of titanium and barium precursors and the type and amount of ligand / dopant added, the nucleation rate and growth mechanism can be affected, resulting in a narrower particle size distribution and more controllable morphology. Compared with existing technologies that can only passively control particle size through methods such as sieving after the reaction, the present invention actively and precisely adjusts the particle size and morphology during the synthesis process.

[0019] (4) Heat energy cascade recovery: In the system design, the energy utilization efficiency is fully considered, and heat is recovered through staged heat exchange and circulation cooling. The rapid cooling crystallization module uses a quenching heat exchanger and a slow cooling heat exchanger to transfer the heat of the high-temperature reaction fluid in stages: part of the heat is transferred to the deionized water before entering the heater through the quenching heat exchanger, preheating the feed to reduce the main heating load; another part of the heat is returned to the barium precursor solution through the slow cooling heat exchanger, achieving raw material preheating. At the same time, the cooling water circulation is involved in the heat exchange process, further absorbing and utilizing the waste heat. Through the above heat integration design, the external energy consumption of the system is minimized, reflecting the green and energy-saving process advantage.

[0020] (5) Stable and reliable product quality: The present invention ensures the quality stability of barium titanate nanoparticles through multiple measures. The continuous process mode combined with online monitoring ensures that the reaction conditions are maintained within the set range for a long time, avoiding the performance differences caused by environmental fluctuations in traditional batch processes. At the same time, the in-situ addition of ligands prevents agglomeration, allowing nanoparticles to be surface-modified and isolated immediately after formation, preventing secondary aggregation and growth, resulting in highly dispersed powders. The multi-stage centrifugation, ultrasonic washing, and vacuum drying in the product collection module further remove impurities and prevent agglomeration, ensuring that the final powder is pure and uniform in size.
