Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of coating preparation technology, specifically relating to a method for preparing a sintered nickel mesh coating for MLCCs. Background Technology

[0002] Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), as a core category of electronic components, have advantages such as small size, large capacitance, and good high-frequency characteristics, and are widely used in consumer electronics, new energy, and communication equipment. In the MLCC production process, high-temperature sintering is a key process that determines its performance and yield, and the performance of the sintering substrate directly affects the dimensional accuracy, surface quality, and batch stability of the MLCC after sintering.

[0003] Nickel mesh has become the mainstream sintering carrier for MLCCs due to its high temperature resistance, good thermal conductivity, high strength, and moderate cost. However, under actual high-temperature sintering conditions (temperatures can reach over 1000℃), exposed nickel mesh has significant defects: First, it is prone to oxidation and creep in high-temperature environments, leading to wire deformation and breakage, and a significantly shortened service life; second, the rough surface of the nickel mesh makes it easy to stick to the MLCC blank during sintering, causing scratches and ceramic chipping on the product surface, reducing the yield rate; third, nickel elements are prone to diffusion and migration at high temperatures, contaminating the ceramic dielectric layer of the MLCC and affecting the electrical performance of the capacitor; fourth, after repeated high-temperature thermal shocks, the surface of the nickel mesh is prone to local peeling and carbon buildup, further aggravating the adverse effects on the MLCC product.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, the industry commonly employs a protective solution involving the preparation of ceramic coatings on the surface of nickel mesh. Commonly used coating materials include alumina and zirconium oxide. Existing preparation processes primarily involve spraying, dipping, and brushing. However, conventional plasma spraying has significant drawbacks: First, the uneven particle size and poor sphericity of the sprayed powder easily lead to low coating density, high porosity, and rapid degradation of protective effectiveness at high temperatures. Second, the limited spraying angle and poor matching of process parameters make it difficult for the coating to uniformly coat the nickel mesh wire, resulting in uneven thickness, missed areas, and cracking. Customer feedback indicates frequent instances of coating breakage and discontinuity. Third, the post-coating processing is inadequate, resulting in weak adhesion between the coating and the nickel mesh substrate, leading to easy detachment and failure after repeated high-temperature sintering cycles. Fourth, existing processes are difficult to adapt to the differentiated coating requirements of nickel meshes with different mesh sizes (e.g., 32 mesh, 60 mesh), exhibiting poor versatility and significant coating thickness fluctuations, making it difficult to stably control within the required process range.

[0005] In summary, existing MLCC sintering nickel mesh coating technologies suffer from drawbacks such as poor coating uniformity, low density, weak adhesion, short service life, and insufficient adaptability, failing to meet the demands of large-scale, high-quality, and long-cycle sintering production of high-end MLCCs. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a method for preparing MLCC sintering nickel mesh coatings that features uniform and dense coating, strong adhesion to the substrate, high-temperature resistance and oxidation resistance, and compatibility with various nickel mesh specifications. This will address the shortcomings of existing technologies and improve the service life of nickel meshes and the yield rate of MLCC products. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, this invention proposes a method for preparing a sintered nickel mesh coating for MLCCs. By using spherical yttrium oxide partially stabilized zirconium oxide powder in conjunction with multi-angle plasma spraying, a continuous, uniform, and leak-free zirconium oxide coating can be formed on the surface of the nickel mesh, completely encapsulating the nickel wire. The thickness is stable and controllable, effectively avoiding defects such as uneven thickness, breakage, and discontinuity.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is: to provide a method for preparing a sintered nickel mesh coating for MLCCs, comprising the following steps:

[0008] S1. Substrate pretreatment: The nickel mesh substrate is cleaned and degreased to remove contaminants from the substrate surface, and then dried; the dried nickel mesh substrate is then subjected to surface roughening treatment to obtain a clean nickel mesh substrate with a rough structure.

[0009] S2. Plasma spraying: Spherical yttrium oxide partially stabilized zirconium oxide powder is selected as the spraying material. The powder is pretreated by drying and dehydration. Atmospheric plasma spraying is used to spray the coating onto the pretreated nickel mesh substrate. During the spraying process, the spraying process parameters are controlled and a multi-angle spraying method is adopted.

[0010] S3. Post-coating treatment: The coated nickel mesh is placed in a protective atmosphere for high-temperature heat treatment, and then slowly cooled after heat preservation to complete the curing and densification treatment of the nickel mesh coating, thus obtaining the modified MLCC sintered nickel mesh.

[0011] Furthermore, in step S1, the cleaning and degreasing treatment adopts an ultrasonic cleaning process. First, ultrasonic cleaning is performed using deionized water or dilute alkaline cleaning solution with added surfactants, and then a second ultrasonic cleaning is performed using an organic solvent. After each cleaning, high-purity deionized water is used for rinsing.

[0012] Further, the surfactant includes fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, alkyl glycoside, or fatty acid methyl ester ethoxylate; the dilute alkaline cleaning solution includes one or more compound aqueous solutions of sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, and trisodium phosphate, with a mass concentration of 2% to 5%; the ultrasonic cleaning temperature of the dilute alkaline cleaning solution is 40℃ to 60℃, and the cleaning time is 10 to 30 minutes; the organic solvent includes any one of anhydrous ethanol, acetone, and isopropanol, and the ultrasonic cleaning time of the organic solvent is 5 to 15 minutes.

[0013] Furthermore, in step S1, the drying method is drying in a blower drying oven or drying with clean hot air, the drying temperature is 60℃~80℃, and the drying time is 30~60min.

[0014] Furthermore, in step S1, the surface roughening treatment is carried out by sandblasting with a sandblasting machine. White corundum sand is selected as the sandblasting abrasive. After sandblasting, the surface of the nickel mesh is blown to remove residual abrasive dust.

[0015] Furthermore, the white corundum abrasive has a mesh size of 100-200; the compressed air pressure for sandblasting is 0.1-0.4 MPa; the distance between the sandblasting gun and the nickel mesh plane is 250-350 mm; the sandblasting is performed in four directions at 45° angles with alternating blasting; the moving speed of the nickel mesh is 5-15 mm / min; each side is sandblasted 2-4 times; and the surface roughness Ra value of the nickel mesh after sandblasting is 1.5-3.0 μm.

[0016] Furthermore, in step S2, the particle size distribution range of the spherical yttrium oxide partially stabilized zirconium oxide powder is 20~70μm; the powder drying temperature is 100℃~150℃, and the drying time is 2~4h.

[0017] Further, in step S2, the process parameters for atmospheric plasma spraying are as follows: spraying current 400~600A, main gas argon flow rate 30~50L / min, secondary gas is hydrogen or helium, secondary gas flow rate 5~15L / min, powder feeding rate 30~70g / min, spray gun power 30~50KW, spraying distance 100~200mm, spraying speed 100~300mm / s; the spraying adopts a four-way 45° multi-angle alternating spraying method.

[0018] Furthermore, during the spraying process in step S2, compressed air or inert gas is used to cool the nickel mesh substrate to prevent high-temperature deformation of the substrate; after spraying, the average coating thickness is 0.03~0.10mm.

[0019] Further, in step S3, the protective atmosphere is an inert atmosphere or a reducing atmosphere, the inert atmosphere is high-purity argon or nitrogen, and the reducing atmosphere is hydrogen; the heat treatment temperature is 800℃~1200℃, and the holding time is 1~4h.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0021] (1) The present invention uses spherical yttrium oxide partially stabilized zirconium oxide powder, combined with multi-angle plasma spraying, to form a continuous, uniform, and unobstructed zirconium oxide coating on the surface of the nickel mesh, completely covering the nickel wire, with stable and controllable thickness, effectively avoiding defects such as uneven thickness, breakage and discontinuity.

[0022] (2) The zirconium oxide coating of the present invention has good thermal stability and high high-temperature chemical stability, which can effectively block the contact between air and nickel mesh substrate, significantly inhibit high-temperature oxidation, creep and deformation of nickel mesh, greatly extend service life and meet the requirements of long-term high-temperature sintering conditions.

[0023] (3) Through the synergistic effect of substrate sandblasting roughening, plasma spraying and high temperature post-treatment in protective atmosphere, the coating is firmly bonded to the nickel mesh substrate, with high density and low porosity. It can withstand multiple high temperature thermal shocks, and will not peel off or crack after long-term use, thus significantly improving reliability.

[0024] (4) The dense zirconium oxide coating of the present invention can effectively block the diffusion of nickel elements and avoid contamination of the MLCC ceramic dielectric layer; at the same time, it reduces problems such as blank adhesion, ceramic chipping, and scratches, and significantly improves the surface quality and yield of MLCC products.

[0025] (5) The process parameters of the present invention are controllable and can be stably adapted to different specifications of nickel mesh such as 32 mesh and 60 mesh. The coating thickness can be precisely controlled within the required range. The process has good stability and repeatability and is suitable for large-scale industrial production.
