Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of glass, and particularly relates to a high-performance lithium-aluminum-silicon glass for aviation and a preparation process thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] As a part of the aircraft structure, the aviation transparency must have high strength and scratch resistance in addition to meeting the requirements of optical, environmental adaptability, durability and fatigue life. Inorganic glass has high hardness, good optical performance and can be used stably at high temperature, and is an ideal material for preparing aviation transparency. With the progress of science and technology, the research on inorganic glass for aviation transparency is developing towards the direction of "light weight and high strength". Compared with sodium calcium silicate glass and sodium aluminum silicate glass, lithium aluminum silicon (LAS) glass with higher elastic modulus can still have high mechanical strength, impact resistance and more excellent scratch resistance on the basis of being thinner. Therefore, LAS glass has become a more ideal inorganic glass material for aviation transparency after sodium calcium silicate glass and sodium aluminum silicate glass.

[0003] The main components of lithium aluminum silicon glass are SiO2, Al2O3, Li2O, Na2O, ZrO2, etc. SiO2 is an important oxide for forming the basic glass network structure, and the formed [SiO4] tetrahedron constitutes the basic skeleton of the glass. Al2O3 is a glass network former and exists in the form of [AlO4] tetrahedron structure, which can enhance the polymerization degree of the glass network. Alkali metal oxides such as Li2O and Na2O mainly act as glass network modifiers, which can destroy the network structure by introducing non-bridging oxygen and then promote the crystallization.

[0004] Most glass products will only undergo cold processing, and its thermal history only includes the process of gradually reducing the original glass from the temperature of the molten state to room temperature. However, with the increasing requirements of application scenarios on the performance of glass, especially for mass-produced ultra-thin glass, the mechanical performance of the glass is weak due to its thinness, so it is necessary to strengthen the glass matrix. Ion exchange is one of the most efficient strengthening methods. The glass is placed in a high-temperature molten salt bath, and large-diameter ions are replaced with small-diameter ions in the glass to generate compressive stress and improve the mechanical strength of the glass. In the chemical strengthening glass system, compared with sodium aluminum silicate glass and sodium calcium silicate glass, lithium aluminum silicon glass is a high-strength engineering glass specially designed for compressive stress storage. Li2O in the aluminosilicate glass provides small-radius Li + , to realize the synchronous improvement of surface compressive stress (CS) and stress layer depth (DOL), and ensure that the glass has good mechanical properties; secondly, to reduce the high-temperature viscosity of the glass, promote the full melting of high-content Al2O3, and improve the elastic modulus of the glass body while reducing the density of the glass.

[0005] Research has found that the most widely used inorganic antibacterial agents are silver-based metal ion antibacterial agents. Ag + As an antibacterial agent, it is used in the mass production of antibacterial glass via ion exchange. Its main mechanism is through Ag... + Sodium ions (Na) on the glass surface + ) or potassium ions (K + The process involves exchanging silver with Ag to modify the glass surface, improving its mechanical properties while introducing an antibacterial agent into the glass surface. Although silver possesses excellent antibacterial properties, the glass undergoes Ag exchange... + Ag will form on the surface after antibacterial treatment. + Agglomeration causes yellow, patchy spots to appear on the glass, severely affecting its optical properties such as transmittance. Therefore, how to prepare aerospace-grade lithium aluminum silicon glass that combines high light transmittance and antibacterial properties has become an urgent technical problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0006] One objective of this invention is to provide a high-performance lithium aluminum silicon glass for aerospace applications, solving the problem that existing lithium aluminum silicon glasses cannot simultaneously achieve high light transmittance and antibacterial properties. The second objective of this invention is to provide a process for preparing the aforementioned high-performance lithium aluminum silicon glass.

[0007] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A high-performance lithium aluminum silicon glass for aerospace applications, comprising, by mass percentage of compounds: Al₂O₃ 11.5-12.5%, Li₂O 3-4%, Na₂O 11-11.5%, B₂O₃ 2-3%, Y₂O₃ 2-3%, Ag₂O₃, and 11.5% Al₂O₃. + @ZrO2 2-3%, P2O5 1-1.5%, MgF2 0.3-0.5%, SiO2 balance, the sum of the mass percentages of each component is 100%.

[0008] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the high-performance lithium aluminum silicon glass for aviation comprises, by mass percentage of the compounds: Al₂O₃ 12%, Li₂O 3.5%, Na₂O 11.2%, B₂O₃ 2.5%, Y₂O₃ 2.5%, Ag₂O₃ 2.5%, and Ag₂O₃ 2.5%. + @ZrO2 2%, P2O5 1.5%, MgF2 0.5%, SiO2 balance, the sum of the mass percentages of each component is 100%.

[0009] This invention introduces appropriate Ag into lithium aluminum silicon glass raw materials. + @ZrO2, P2O5, and MgF2 were used as composite nucleating agents, and Ag... +@ZrO2 has the conventional function of promoting the nucleation and crystallization of microcrystalline glass, P2O5 can affect the crystallization of glass by promoting strong phase separation, and MgF2 can promote nucleation through phase separation, thus refining the grain size. The three form a composite nucleating agent and work synergistically to make the glass crystal particles small and the particles in the crystals closely arranged, which enhances the ability of the glass matrix to resist external forces. A large number of glass phase-crystal phase and crystal phase-crystal phase interfaces are formed in the glass system. The presence of these interfaces can change the direction of cracks and play a "pinning effect" to improve the bending strength of the glass. Compared with the use of a single nucleating agent, the grain size is smaller, the grain refinement and strengthening effect is more obvious, and it is more conducive to improving the bending strength of the glass.

[0010] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the Ag + @ZrO2 is a porous zirconium dioxide loaded with silver ions.

[0011] For Ag + When doped into a glass system, Ag is easily reduced to elemental silver, which then aggregates into nanoparticles, coloring the glass and affecting its light transmittance. This invention addresses this issue by using Ag... + Preloaded into the pores of porous zirconium dioxide, equivalent to Ag + It provides a "protective chamber," and the stable zirconium dioxide shell can effectively trap Ag. + It is isolated from external high temperature and reducing environment, which effectively improves Ag + Stability, due to Ag + The glass body was not reduced, and it still retains high light transmittance. During use, Ag... + It can exert its antibacterial effect through ion exchange or diffusion.

[0012] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the Ag + The raw materials for preparing @ZrO2 include porous zirconium dioxide and silver nitrate solution. The ratio of porous zirconium dioxide to silver nitrate solution is 1g:10-20mL, and the concentration of silver nitrate solution is 0.1-1mol / L.

[0013] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the Ag + The preparation steps for ZrO2 are as follows: Porous zirconium dioxide was ultrasonically dispersed in deionized water to obtain a mixture. This mixture was then combined with silver nitrate solution and stirred at 20-30°C in the dark for 8-12 hours. After the mixture was dissolved, it was filtered, and the filter cake was washed with deionized water until no free Ag was found in the washing liquid. + Vacuum dried at 40-45℃ to constant weight to obtain Ag + @ZrO2.

[0014] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the ratio of porous zirconium dioxide to deionized water is 1g:10-20mL.

[0015] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the porous zirconium dioxide preparation steps are as follows: UiO-66 was placed in a tube furnace and held at 500°C for 2 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere, followed by holding at 500°C for 2 hours under an air atmosphere to obtain porous zirconium dioxide.

[0016] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the heating rate of the tube furnace is 3-10℃ / min.

[0017] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the UiO-66 is a zirconium 1,4-carboxybenzene MOF, a raw material well known to those skilled in the art, which can be prepared by referring to known methods or purchased commercially. UiO-66 is a zirconium-based porous MOF material. It is first carbonized in a nitrogen atmosphere, a process that stabilizes its MOF framework structure; then it is calcined in air. This stepwise calcination method effectively prevents the material structure from collapsing at high temperatures, thus better inheriting the porous characteristics of the precursor UiO-66. Therefore, compared with direct air calcination, the porous zirconium dioxide obtained by this method not only has a larger specific surface area but also a more uniform and porous pore structure.

[0018] The manufacturing process of high-performance lithium aluminum silicon glass for aerospace applications includes the following steps: S1. Combine Al2O3, Li2O, Na2O, B2O3, Y2O3, Ag + @ZrO2, P2O5, MgF2 and SiO2 are mixed evenly and transferred to a furnace for high-temperature melting to obtain molten glass. The molten glass is then fed into a tin bath through a flow channel for forming, and then annealed to obtain glass blocks. S2. The glass block is preheated and then subjected to the first strengthening. After the strengthening is completed, the resulting glass is cooled to room temperature in a heat dissipation furnace to obtain pre-strengthened glass. S3. The pre-strengthened glass is preheated and then strengthened a second time. After strengthening, the resulting glass is cooled to room temperature in a heat dissipation furnace to obtain high-performance lithium aluminum silicon glass.

[0019] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the high-temperature melting temperature is 1550-1650℃ and the high-temperature melting time is 4-5h.

[0020] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the annealing temperature is 550-600℃, the annealing time is 20-30min, and after the annealing is completed, the furnace is cooled to room temperature.

[0021] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the preheating temperature in S2 and S3 is 360-380℃ and the preheating time is 1-2h.

[0022] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the first strengthening molten salt is a molten liquid of sodium nitrate, the first strengthening temperature is 360-370℃, and the time is 6-8h.

[0023] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the second strengthening molten salt is a mixed molten liquid composed of sodium nitrate and potassium nitrate in a mass ratio of 1-2:8-9, and the second strengthening temperature is 395-420℃, and the time is 2-4h.

[0024] In the glass matrix strengthening process, the first step of this application involves treatment with sodium nitrate molten salt. This step mainly aims to strengthen the Na... + With Li in glass + Or Na + The first step involves exchanging sodium nitrate to form a preliminary compressive stress layer on the surface. The second step uses a composite molten salt of sodium nitrate and potassium nitrate for final strengthening. Compared to existing strengthening processes, this application uses sodium nitrate in the first step. + With Ag + The exchange driving force is much smaller than K + With Ag + This enhancement method helps protect Ag in the initial enhancement stage. + To prevent excessive replacement, the antibacterial effect of the glass is preserved, and it also serves as a basis for subsequent K... + with Na + This exchange lays the foundation for ensuring the strength and performance of the glass.

[0025] As a further technical solution of the present invention, the initial temperature of the heat dissipation furnace in S2 is 360-370℃, and the initial temperature of the heat dissipation furnace in S3 is 395-420℃.

[0026] The beneficial effects of this invention are: 1. This invention obtains aluminosilicate glass with high strength, high light transmittance and antibacterial properties by adjusting the composition of lithium aluminosilicate glass raw materials and strengthening process. The four-point bending strength is ≥665MPa, the light transmittance is ≥90.3%, and the antibacterial performance is over 98%.

[0027] 2. This invention uses Ag + @ZrO2、 O5 and MgF2 are used as composite nucleating agents, and their synergistic effect promotes the formation and crystallization process of lithium aluminum silicon glass. This combination not only refines the grains and enhances the crystal density, but also exerts a "pinning effect" by forming a large number of glass phase-crystal phase and crystal phase-crystal phase interfaces to change the crack propagation path and significantly improve the bending strength of the glass.

[0028] 3. To prevent Ag + The reduction of Ag to elemental silver in glass causes coloring problems; this invention addresses this issue by reducing Ag to elemental silver. + It is pre-loaded inside the pores of porous zirconium dioxide. The structure is Ag. + It provides isolation and protection, ensuring stability in high-temperature and reducing environments, thereby maintaining the glass's high light transmittance. During use, Ag... + It can achieve its antibacterial function through slow release via ion exchange or diffusion.

[0029] 4. In the enhanced treatment, this invention employs a two-step ion exchange process: firstly, preliminary treatment is carried out in sodium nitrate molten salt to allow Na to... + With Li in glass + / Na + Exchange forms a surface compressive stress layer, while avoiding Ag + The Ag was largely displaced; subsequently, a final strengthening process was performed using a composite molten salt of sodium nitrate and potassium nitrate. This stepwise strategy protected the Ag. + To maintain antibacterial properties and also for subsequent K + -Na + The exchange lays the foundation and ensures that the glass ultimately has high strength.

As can be seen from the test results of Example 1 and Comparative Example 4, under the condition that other conditions remain unchanged, the lithium aluminum silicon glass obtained by using the physical mixture of silver nitrate and zirconium dioxide as raw material has significantly poorer transmittance. As can be seen from the test results of Example 1 and Comparative Example 5, changing the molten salt used in the first strengthening process, while keeping other conditions unchanged, will result in a significantly poorer antibacterial performance of lithium aluminum silicon glass.
