Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of coating protection, and more particularly to a radiation protection filler and its preparation method, as well as a radiation protection thermal control coating and component. Background Technology
[0002] The space radiation environment consists of high-energy charged particles generated by Earth's radiation belts, solar activity, and galactic cosmic rays. These particles cause total dose effects, single-event effects, and material structural damage through mechanisms such as ionization damage and displacement damage. Approximately 70% of spacecraft on-orbit failures are related to this, seriously affecting the reliability of long-life space missions.
[0003] Traditional radiation protection methods, such as increasing the thickness of aluminum alloys or adding tantalum sheets, are difficult to widely apply due to satellite weight budget constraints. Single materials such as aluminum, polyethylene, and lead each have their shortcomings when dealing with mixed radiation fields: high-Z (atomic number) materials such as lead and tungsten can effectively shield gamma rays and X-rays, but they can produce secondary cascade showers when encountering high-energy heavy ions, which can actually increase the radiation level inside the cabin; low-Z materials such as polyethylene can effectively block charged particles and slow down neutrons, but they have weak shielding ability against gamma rays and limited absorption capacity for thermal neutrons.
[0004] Therefore, the synergistic protection technology of high and low Z components has become a research focus. Current main technical approaches include physical blending fillers and sandwich-structured coatings. The former has a simple process but suffers from uneven dispersion and weak interfacial bonding; the latter, while possessing good protective potential, may cause coating cracking or peeling due to interfacial stress generated during temperature cycling caused by differences in interlayer thermal expansion coefficients. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this application is to provide a radiation protection filler and a method for preparing the same, so that the radiation protection filler can effectively attenuate high-energy radiation and suppress the generation of secondary radiation; Another objective of this application is to provide the application of the above-mentioned radiation protection filler in the preparation of radiation protection thermal control coatings, and to provide a radiation protection thermal control coating and a component based on the coating, which has both good thermal control performance and radiation protection capability, while avoiding mechanical problems caused by interfacial stress in multilayer structures.

[0015] This application employs a sol-gel method to coat boric acid onto the surface of bismuth oxide. By controlling the feed ratio and sintering, an in-situ solid-state reaction is formed to create a bismuth-rich core and a boron-rich shell, resulting in a composite filler with good dispersibility and strong bonding. This filler uses individual particles as functional units, achieving a synergistic shielding effect between high-Z and low-Z components through chemical bonding. This effectively attenuates high-energy radiation and suppresses secondary radiation generation. The filler described in this application, used in the preparation of radiation protection thermal control coatings, combines excellent thermal control performance with radiation protection capabilities, while avoiding mechanical problems caused by interfacial stress in multilayer structures, exhibiting stable and reliable performance.

Detailed Implementation
[0017] This application discloses a radiation protection filler and its preparation method, as well as a radiation protection thermal control coating and components. Those skilled in the art can refer to the content of this document and appropriately modify the process parameters to achieve the desired results. It should be particularly noted that all similar substitutions and modifications are obvious to those skilled in the art and are considered to be included in this application. The products, processes, and applications described in this application have been described through preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art can obviously modify or appropriately change and combine the preparation methods described herein without departing from the content, spirit, and scope of this application to realize and apply the technology of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments in this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0018] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second," "step 1" and "step 2," and "(1)" and "(2)" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element. Moreover, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0019] Existing radiation protection coatings typically employ physically blended high- and low-Z fillers or multilayer composite structures, which suffer from problems such as uneven filler dispersion, weak interfacial bonding, and high interlayer stress and easy cracking and peeling due to mismatched thermal expansion coefficients. Addressing these shortcomings, this application provides a novel radiation protection filler designed from the perspective of filler microstructure, aiming to construct individual particles as independent functional units. This novel filler, through microstructure control, achieves close synergy between bismuth-rich and boron-rich high-Z and low-Z components, improving protective effectiveness while maintaining lightweight characteristics.
[0020] In the first aspect of this application, the provided radiation protection filler is a core-shell structure, as shown in the schematic diagram. Figure 1 The core comprises Bi2O3, and the shell comprises Bi4O3(BO3)2; or the core comprises Bi4O3(BO3)2, and the shell comprises Bi3B5O3. 12 The core is a bismuth-rich region with a high Z composition, while the outer shell is a boron-rich region with a low Z composition. The bismuth-rich phase, as the high Z core, plays a crucial role in efficiently absorbing γ / X-ray photons softened by the outer shell and ultimately stopping the decelerated charged particles. The boron-rich phase, as the low Z outer shell, plays a crucial role in softening incident photons through Compton scattering, decelerating charged particles through ionization loss, and using boron to capture and remove secondary neutrons in situ. The two phases are tightly coupled in space, achieving a synergistic protection path of "softening / decelerating first, then absorbing / stopping."
[0021] This radiation protection filler integrates the synergistic shielding effect of high-Z and low-Z components into a single filler particle, achieving efficient attenuation of various types of radiation and effectively suppressing the generation of secondary radiation. Furthermore, the core and shell are strongly bonded by chemical bonds, resulting in strong adhesion and avoiding interface problems caused by physical mixing. The integrated structure eliminates the thermal mismatch stress of multilayer materials, thus resolving the risk of cracking and peeling of subsequent coatings, ensuring stable and reliable performance.
[0022] In some embodiments of this application, the B / Bi atomic ratio is not greater than 1:0.6, for example, 1:0.61, 1:0.65, 1:0.70, 1:0.75, 1:0.80, 1:0.85, 1:90, 1:0.95, 1:1, 1:1.15, 1:1.20, 1:1.25, 1:1.30, 1:1.35, 1:1.40, 1:1.45, 1:1.50, 1:1.55, 1:1.60, 1:1.65, 1:1.70, 1:1.75, 1:1.80, 1:1.85, 1:1.90, 1:1.95, 1:2.0, 1:2.5, 1:3, 1:5, 1:10, 1:50, 1:100, or any value between any two. In some other embodiments of this application, when 1:2 ≤ B / Bi atomic ratio < 1:0.6, the core of the radiation protection filler is Bi4O3(BO3)2, and the outer shell is Bi3B5O. 12 When the B / Bi atomic ratio is <1:2, the radiation protection filler in this application has a core of Bi2O3 and a shell of Bi4O3(BO3)2.
[0023] In a second aspect of this application, a method for preparing the radiation protection filler as described in this application is provided, comprising: Obtain a uniformly dispersed bismuth oxide suspension; The bismuth oxide suspension was mixed with boric acid and then gelled. The gelled mixture is aged and then calcined to obtain the radiation protection filler.
[0024] In some embodiments of this application, a uniformly dispersed bismuth oxide suspension can be obtained by thorough stirring in a solvent containing a dispersant, such as water, and, if necessary, by further ultrasonic treatment to assist dispersion. The dispersant includes, but is not limited to, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyethylene glycol, and polysorbate-80.
[0025] In some embodiments of this application, the gelation process includes continuous stirring under heating conditions until the solvent evaporates and the system gels, wherein the heating temperature can be selected as 70-90°C. In other embodiments of this application, the gelation includes adding a pH-release agent such as urea to adjust the pH, adding a gelation promoter such as citric acid, or adding a physical template such as polyethylene glycol to assist in gelation.

[0027] In some embodiments of this application, the calcination temperature is preferably 500-600℃. Too low a calcination temperature may lead to insufficient decomposition and melting of the precursor, and insufficient atomic diffusion motive force; too high a temperature may cause the boron component to volatilize, damaging the core-shell structure. In other embodiments of this application, the calcination is performed in stages: the first stage involves heating and holding to achieve melting and uniform coating of boron oxide (during the heating process, boric acid dehydrates to form boron oxide) and removes additives; the second stage controls diffusion to form the core-shell structure. In other embodiments of this application, the first calcination temperature is 300-400℃, the heating rate is 1-5℃ / min, and the holding time is 60-90min; the second calcination temperature is 500-600℃, the heating rate is 5-10℃ / min, and the holding time is 60-150min.
[0028] In some embodiments of this application, the molar ratio is no greater than 3.33:1, for example, 0.1:1, 0.2:1, 0.3:1, 0.4:1, 0.5:1, 0.6:1, 0.7:1, 0.8:1, 0.9:1, 1:1, 1.1:1, 1.2:1, 1.3:1, 1.4:1, 1.5:1, 1.6:1, 1.7:1, 1.8:1, 1.9:1, 2.0:1, 2.1:1, 2.2:1, 2.3:1, 2.4:1, 2.5:1, 2.6:1, 2.7:1, 2.8:1, 2.9:1, 3.0:1, 3.1:1, 3.2:1, 3.3:1, 3.32:1, or any value between any two. This application found through testing at different feed ratios that a radiation protection filler with a bismuth-rich core and a boron-rich shell can be generated under this molar ratio condition; see Table 1 below for the results. Table 1
[0029] Based on the results of a series of different feed ratios recorded in Table 1, when the molar ratio of boric acid to bismuth oxide is not greater than 3.33:1, the two core-shell structure fillers described above in this application can be produced. However, when the molar ratio is greater than or equal to 3.33:1, the resulting core-shell structure Bi3B5O... 12 + The core of BiB3O6 is not a bismuth-rich phase.
