Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of silicon nitride ceramic materials, specifically to a high thermal conductivity silicon nitride ceramic material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Silicon nitride ceramics, as a high-performance advanced inorganic non-metallic material, have been widely used in structural fields such as aerospace engine components, mechanical seal rings, and cutting tools, as well as functional fields such as ceramic substrates and sensor elements, thanks to their excellent high-temperature resistance, superior chemical corrosion resistance, and high strength and hardness. However, the limitation of its intrinsic thermal conductivity has become a key bottleneck restricting further development. The thermal conductivity of pure silicon nitride ceramics at room temperature is much lower than that of traditional metal heat dissipation materials such as copper and aluminum. With the rapid development of high-power-density electronic devices, high-heat-generating devices such as insulated-gate bipolar transistor modules and 5G power amplifiers cannot dissipate the large amount of heat generated during operation, leading to a sharp increase in chip junction temperature, which in turn causes problems such as device performance degradation, decreased reliability, and even failure.
[0003] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a silicon nitride ceramic material with high thermal conductivity, its preparation method, and its application. Summary of the Invention

[0018] Secondly, this application provides a method for preparing a high thermal conductivity silicon nitride ceramic material, comprising the following steps: Step 1: The polydopamine / silane coupling agent co-modified hexagonal boron nitride, graphene@alumina composite powder, and mixed solvent are ultrasonically dispersed for 20-22 min. Then, the powder is added to a planetary ball mill and ball-milled for 2-3 h at a ball-to-particle ratio of 4:1 with silicon nitride balls at a speed of 200 r / min. Then, α-silicon nitride powder, yttrium oxide, alumina, and polyvinylpyrrolidone are added, and ball milling continues for 4-6 h. The slurry after ball milling is transferred to a vacuum degassing tank and degassed for 20-23 min under a vacuum of -0.09 MPa to remove bubbles and obtain silicon nitride composite slurry. Step 2: The silicon nitride composite slurry is treated with a spray dryer with an inlet temperature of 180℃ and an outlet temperature of 80℃. It is then passed through a 200-mesh sieve and placed into a graphite mold. It is then pressed at 25MPa for 8 minutes using an electric press. After that, it is vacuum sealed with plastic film and placed in a cold isostatic press at 180MPa for 12 minutes. Then, it is placed in an oven and dried at 75-80℃ for 6-7 hours. It is then placed in a high-temperature atmosphere sintering furnace and nitrogen gas is introduced at a flow rate of 200mL / min. The temperature is first increased to 700℃ at a rate of 5℃ / min and held for 3 hours. Then, the temperature is increased to 1800-1900℃ at a rate of 10℃ / min and held for 2-3 hours. Finally, the temperature is reduced to room temperature at a rate of 8℃ / min. The slurry is then cut and polished with a diamond wheel to obtain a high thermal conductivity silicon nitride ceramic material.
[0019] Thirdly, this application provides an application of a high thermal conductivity silicon nitride ceramic material in aerospace engine components, mechanical seal rings, and cutting tools.
[0020] The beneficial effects of this invention are: This invention discloses a high thermal conductivity silicon nitride ceramic material, its preparation method, and its application. The method involves ball milling and dispersing α-silicon nitride powder, yttrium oxide, alumina, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polydopamine / silane coupling agent-modified hexagonal boron nitride, and graphene@alumina composite powder, followed by dry pressing and sintering to obtain the high thermal conductivity silicon nitride ceramic material. This preparation method uses α-silicon nitride powder as the main raw material. By adding sintering aids (yttrium oxide and alumina), the sintering temperature can be significantly reduced, the compaction of the green body can be promoted, and the phase transformation and microstructure of silicon nitride can be controlled. Hexagonal boron nitride is co-modified with polydopamine / silane coupling agent to reduce interfacial phonon scattering and improve thermal conductivity, resulting in excellent mechanical and thermal properties. The addition of graphene@alumina composite powder further enhances the thermal conductivity of silicon nitride ceramics. The alumina insulating shell addresses the conductivity issue of graphene, making it more suitable for applications requiring both high thermal conductivity and insulation, such as electronic packaging and heat dissipation substrates. This results in high thermal conductivity silicon nitride ceramic materials with high thermal conductivity, excellent insulation, stable mechanical properties, and high-temperature resistance, applicable to fields such as electronics, new energy, and aerospace.
[0021] In the preparation of high thermal conductivity silicon nitride ceramic materials, a polydopamine / silane coupling agent co-modified hexagonal boron nitride was first prepared. First, hexagonal boron nitride powder was cleaned to remove impurities, resulting in pretreated hexagonal boron nitride. Then, a polydopamine coating layer was polymerized on the surface of the pretreated hexagonal boron nitride to form polydopamine-coated hexagonal boron nitride. Subsequently, it was modified using a silane coupling agent. The siloxane on the silane coupling agent KH590 hydrolyzed to form silanols, which then dehydrated, condensed, and grafted onto the surface of the polydopamine-coated hexagonal boron nitride. Simultaneously, thiol groups were introduced to enhance its reactivity. By improving the interfacial bonding, polydopamine / silane coupling agent co-modified hexagonal boron nitride was obtained. Hexagonal boron nitride has excellent thermal conductivity, and its addition to ceramic materials can significantly improve their thermal conductivity. After dual modification with polydopamine and silane coupling agent KH590, it can be uniformly dispersed during ball milling, and the large number of amino, hydroxyl, and mercapto groups on it can form chemical bonds, thus enabling it to be well distributed in the ceramic material and fully exert its thermal conductivity. At the same time, it can significantly improve the internal density of the ceramic material, thereby improving the overall performance of the ceramic material.
[0022] A graphene@alumina composite powder was prepared during the fabrication of high thermal conductivity silicon nitride ceramic materials. First, graphene was oxidized and etched using concentrated sulfuric acid and concentrated nitric acid, generating numerous hydroxyl and carboxyl groups on its surface. Aluminum isopropoxide was then hydrolyzed to prepare alumina sol. The hydroxyl and carboxyl groups on the graphene surface chemically bonded to the Al-OH groups in the alumina sol, forming a core-shell structure with alumina coating the graphene surface. Graphene forms the core and alumina the shell, resulting in the graphene@alumina composite powder. Graphene possesses ultra-high thermal conductivity, and its addition to ceramic materials significantly enhances their thermal conductivity. The dense alumina coating completely isolates graphene from external electrical contact, effectively blocking conductivity and meeting insulation requirements. Graphene@alumina improves the volume resistivity and thermal conductivity of ceramic materials, optimizes the thermal conductivity network, enhances interfacial compatibility with the silicon nitride matrix, and balances mechanical properties, making it a core candidate material for high-end heat dissipation components in fields such as electronics, new energy, and aerospace.
