Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of silicon carbide ceramic plate production, in particular to a gel-casting molding device for batch production of silicon carbide ceramic plates. Background Art
[0002] Silicon carbide ceramic plates have a very wide range of application fields, mainly including aerospace, automotive industry, electronics industry, energy field, building materials industry, chemical industry, high refractory materials field, energy environmental protection, chemical machinery, semiconductors, etc. At present, the main preparation methods of silicon carbide plates produced on a large scale in the market are die pressing molding method and slip casting molding method, but both have great defects. Die pressing molding has problems such as high cost and inability to prepare large-size plates; slip casting molding also has problems such as easy delamination and cracking of products, warping and deformation, etc., thus making it impossible to prepare large-size silicon carbide plates.
[0003] Gel-casting molding is a near-net-shape molding method. It uses a network gel formed by in-situ polymerization of organic monomers to fix ceramic particles in a colloidal system, thereby in-situ forming a ceramic green body with complex shapes: through the in-situ curing process, gel-casting molding can obtain a green body with good micro-uniformity and certain strength. This method ensures the composition and structure uniformity of the formed green body; the amount of organic matter used in the preparation process is reduced, thereby reducing the impact on the environment; the ceramic powder slurry prepared through electrostatic stabilization or steric stabilization mechanism can be cured and formed without changing the position of powder particles, thereby precisely controlling the shape and size and facilitating subsequent machining; these advantages make gel-casting molding have broad application prospects in many fields, especially in the preparation of materials that require high strength and uniformity.
[0004] With the increasing demand for large-size silicon carbide ceramic plates, batch preparation of large-size ceramic plates by gel-casting molding is an urgent problem to be solved in the current market. Summary of the Utility Model
