Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of alumina ceramic material preparation technology, and in particular to an alumina-based ceramic insulator body and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Alumina ceramics possess high insulation, chemical corrosion resistance, high strength, high wear resistance, and high temperature resistance, making them widely used in the insulation support of power equipment such as high-voltage switches, circuit breakers, transformers, and insulators. Alumina ceramic insulators in power systems serve the functions of conductor isolation, support, and fixation. With the development of power transmission networks towards ultra-high voltage transmission, higher requirements are being placed on the electrical performance of alumina ceramic insulators.
[0003] Alumina ceramics have a dielectric constant of around 10 and a dielectric strength of 10-15 kV / mm at 1 MHz. Aluminum nitride ceramics have a dielectric constant of around 8.5, and silicon nitride ceramics have a dielectric constant of around 7.5. Compared to similar aluminum nitride and silicon nitride ceramics, alumina ceramics have a higher dielectric constant and relatively higher dielectric loss. While their dielectric strength is comparable to that of silicon nitride ceramics, it is lower. The advantage of alumina ceramics lies in their relatively low production cost, leading to their widespread application in the insulation and support of power equipment.
[0004] With the development of power transmission grids towards ultra-high voltage (UHV) transmission, alumina ceramic insulators, due to their high dielectric constant and high dielectric loss, can no longer meet the requirements for UHV power transmission insulators. There is an urgent need for a low dielectric constant alumina-based ceramic insulator body to meet the requirements of UHV power transmission insulators. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the issues of excessively high dielectric constant and dielectric loss in existing alumina ceramic insulators, this invention provides an alumina-based ceramic insulator body and its preparation method.
[0006] The alumina-based ceramic insulator body provided by this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] A ceramic insulator body based on alumina is made of interface-repairing alumina and sintering aids; the mass ratio of the interface-repairing alumina to the sintering aids is 100:(5-10); the sintering aids are at least one of zirconium oxide, rare earth oxides, calcium oxide, magnesium oxide, silicon dioxide, and manganese dioxide; the interface-repairing alumina is an interface metal atom-repairing alumina, which includes a carrier alumina and metal atoms anchored to the defect sites of the carrier alumina in the form of single atoms, wherein the metal atoms include at least Al.
[0008] In this invention, defects on the surface of calcined alumina are repaired by single atoms. These single atoms compensate for oxygen vacancies generated during calcination through covalent bonds. By reducing surface defects of alumina, the overall dielectric loss is reduced. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the alumina-based ceramic insulator prepared using this method are significantly reduced, which meets the electrical performance requirements of insulators for ultra-high voltage power transmission.
[0009] Preferably, the preparation method of the interface metal atom repair type alumina is as follows:
[0010] Step 1: Prepare a modified acid solution with a mass concentration of 1-5%. Place 10 parts by weight of alumina in 100-200 parts by weight of the modified acid solution and ultrasonically disperse for 4-8 hours. Dry to obtain organic acid modified alumina.
[0011] Step 2: Prepare a water-soluble metal salt solution with a concentration of 0.5-5 g / L. The water-soluble metal salt solution includes at least aluminum nitrate. Mix 10 parts by weight of organic acid-modified alumina with 50-1000 parts by weight of the water-soluble metal salt solution by mechanical stirring for 1-4 hours, ultrasonic dispersion for 1-4 hours, aging for 12-24 hours, and drying to obtain solid powder.
[0012] Step 3: The solid powder is ball-milled to refine it. The refined powder is then calcined in air at a temperature of 500-800℃ for 3-8 hours at a rate of 5-10℃ / min, followed by a temperature drop to 200-250℃ at a rate of 10-20℃ / min. The furnace is then allowed to cool naturally to room temperature. The resulting powder, after ball milling, yields a median diameter D. 50 Alumina with an interfacial metal atom thickness of 0.2-2.5 μm is used for interfacial metal atom repair.
[0013] The preparation method of the interface metal atom repair type alumina in this invention is simple and easy to achieve large-scale production.
[0014] Preferably, the modified acid solution is prepared from water and organic acid, and the water is required to be deionized water or pure water; the organic acid is at least one selected from tartaric acid, tannic acid, malic acid, citric acid, succinic acid, and oxalic acid.
[0015] More preferably, the modified acid solution is made from pure water, tannic acid, and citric acid, and the mass ratio of tannic acid to citric acid in the modified acid solution is 1:1.
[0016] Preferably, in step three, the solid powder is ball-milled to refine it. The refined powder is then calcined in air at a temperature of 600-650°C (8-10°C / min) for 4-6 hours, followed by a temperature drop to 200-250°C (20°C / min). The furnace is then allowed to cool naturally to room temperature. The resulting powder, after ball-milling, yields a median diameter D. 50 Alumina with an interfacial metal atom thickness of 0.2-2.5 μm is used for interfacial metal atom repair.
[0017] The interface metal alumina with good defect repairability prepared by adopting the above technical solution has better electrical performance, and the alumina ceramic insulator prepared by it has better electrical performance, which better meets the electrical performance requirements of insulators for ultra-high voltage power transmission.
[0018] Preferably, the sintering aid is composed of zirconium oxide, lanthanum oxide, cerium oxide, calcium oxide, magnesium oxide, and silicon dioxide.
[0019] Preferably, the sintering aid is composed of the following raw materials in parts by weight: 100 parts zirconium oxide, 5-10 parts lanthanum oxide, 5-10 parts cerium oxide, 10-25 parts calcium oxide, 10-25 parts magnesium oxide, and 20-40 parts silicon dioxide.
[0020] In this invention, the zirconia sintering forms a tetragonal T-phase zirconia (t-ZrO2). Under stress, t-ZrO2 undergoes a stress-induced phase transformation, relaxing the stress field at the crack tip, increasing crack propagation resistance, and effectively improving overall density, seismic resistance, flexural strength, and impact toughness. Lanthanum oxide and cerium oxide can promote the reaction of alumina with other sintering aids to generate a liquid phase with a lower melting point, effectively reducing its sintering temperature. Through capillary action in the grain gaps, the liquid phase fills the voids, densifying the ceramic and improving overall density, mechanical properties, impact toughness, and seismic resistance. Calcium oxide undergoes eutectic reaction with alumina during sintering, which is beneficial for solid-phase reactions. Magnesium oxide becomes a nucleus for crystal growth during sintering, which helps eliminate large voids in the preform, promoting densification and inhibiting crystal growth. Silica fills the pores between alumina crystals, improving grain boundary bonding, enhancing the compressive strength and wear resistance of ceramics, and reducing the coefficient of thermal expansion, thermal stress, and thermal shock resistance. At high temperatures, it generates a liquid phase, promoting grain refinement, lowering the sintering temperature, and increasing bulk density. In summary, alumina ceramic insulators prepared using the above-mentioned compounded sintering aids improve overall density, wear resistance, seismic performance, compressive strength, and impact toughness while ensuring electrical performance, better meeting the performance requirements of ultra-high voltage power transmission insulators.
[0021] Preferably, the alumina-based ceramic insulator body is made of interface-repairing alumina, sintering aid, and fluorophlogopite powder, and the mass ratio of the interface-repairing alumina to the sintering aid and the fluorophlogopite powder is 100:(5-10):(5-10).
[0022] The electrical breakdown strength of alumina ceramic insulators can be improved by incorporating fluorinated phlogopite powder. Furthermore, the dielectric constant of fluorinated phlogopite powder itself is between 5 and 6.5, which does not affect the dielectric properties of alumina ceramic insulators. On the contrary, it can improve the dielectric and mechanical properties of alumina ceramic insulators.
[0023] The present invention provides a method for preparing an alumina-based ceramic insulator body, which is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0024] A method for preparing an alumina-based ceramic insulator body includes the following steps:

[0028] Step four: The insulator blank from step three is heated to 500-550℃ for 1-2 hours to remove glue, then heated to 1550-1750℃ for 2-6 hours to sinter, and finally cooled to room temperature and demolded to obtain the alumina-based ceramic insulator body.
[0029] The preparation method used in this invention is relatively simple, the process is mature, the production cost is relatively low, and it has strong scalability. Through large-scale production, the production cost of alumina-based ceramic insulators can be effectively reduced, and better market recognition and promotion can be achieved.

[0031] By adopting the above technical solutions, the overall dielectric and mechanical properties can be improved.
[0032] In summary, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0130] Based on Examples 1 and 18-22 and Table 4, it can be seen that the calcination temperature during the synthesis of interface-repairing alumina should be controlled at 600-650℃ and the calcination time should be controlled at 4-6h. Under the above synthesis conditions, the surface defects of the interface-repairing alumina are well repaired, which can ensure the electrical and mechanical properties of the alumina-based ceramic insulator.

[0138] As can be seen from Examples 1 and 23-27, and Table 5, the addition of fluorophlogopite powder can improve the breakdown strength of alumina-based ceramic insulators while enhancing their electrical and mechanical properties. Given that the content of interface metal atom-repairing alumina is 100 parts by weight, the preferred addition amount of fluorophlogopite powder is 5-10 parts.
[0139] In summary, this invention repairs defects on the surface of calcined alumina with single-atom aluminum, which compensates for oxygen vacancies generated during calcination through covalent bonds. This effectively reduces the dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the alumina-based ceramic insulator while giving it good anti-fouling, antibacterial, and hygienic safety properties, meeting the electrical performance requirements of insulators for ultra-high voltage power transmission.
