Description

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of high-temperature superconducting materials, in particular to a method for preparing high-performance REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material based on layered precursor embryo. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the field of superconducting materials, REBCO (RE represents light rare earth elements such as Y, Gd, Sm, Nd, etc.) high-temperature superconducting bulk material is widely concerned and favored in the fields of energy, transportation, medical treatment, etc. due to its "three high" characteristics of high superconducting transition temperature, high critical current density and high critical magnetic field. Since its advent, scientists have conducted in-depth research and exploration on the preparation method of REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material to continuously improve the performance of the material. However, the current preparation technology faces significant challenges. In the growth process of REBCO superconducting bulk material, RE211 (RE2BaCuOx) particles in the melt system are embedded in the RE123 (REBa2Cu3O 7-δ ) matrix to form pinning centers that have a decisive effect on superconducting performance. In order to improve the superconducting performance of the superconducting bulk material, it is necessary to refine and uniformly distribute the RE211 particles. However, the existing precursor powder combination method (MPP) can refine the particle size of RE211 particles and optimize their distribution, but due to the introduction of additional oxygen, the final sample has serious pore distribution, which deteriorates the mechanical properties of the superconducting bulk material and affects its reliability in practical applications.

[0018] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings. Meanwhile, in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", and the like are only used to distinguish the description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0019] As shown in FIG. 1, the present embodiment provides a method for preparing a high-performance REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material based on a layered precursor embryo, wherein RE in the REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material is selected from rare earth elements such as Y, Gd, Sm, and Nd. The method comprises steps S100, S200, S300, S400, and S500.

[0020] Step S100: obtaining raw medicines with a preset molar ratio, and preparing an original powder combination by using a solid-phase sintering method;

[0021] It should be noted that step S100 comprises steps S110, S120, and S130.

[0022] Step S110: weighing three raw medicines according to molar ratios of RE2O3:BaCO3:CuO = 1:4:6, 1:1:1, and 0:2:3;

[0023] Step S120: mixing the three raw medicines respectively to prepare RE123 original powder, RE211 original powder, and RE023 original powder;

[0024] Step S130: preparing the RE123 original powder, the RE211 original powder, and the RE023 original powder by using a solid-phase sintering method to obtain purified RE123 powder, RE211 powder, and RE023 powder.

[0025] It can be understood that the solid phase sintering method is a method of combining powder materials with each other and forming a dense material without melting by heating the powder materials to their solid phase reaction temperature. For the preparation of REBCO superconducting bulk materials, the solid phase sintering method helps to improve the purity and crystallinity of the original powder, thereby optimizing the subsequent processing and performance. It should be noted that step S130 includes step S131 and step S132.

[0026] Step S131, sintering the RE123 original powder in an air environment at 920℃ for 48 hours, sintering the RE211 original powder in an air environment at 930℃ for 48 hours, and sintering the RE023 original powder in an air environment at 880℃ for 48 hours, to obtain sintered RE123 powder blocks, RE211 powder blocks and RE023 powder blocks;

[0027] Step S132, grinding and sintering the sintered RE123 powder blocks, RE211 powder blocks and RE023 powder blocks, repeated three times, to obtain purified RE123 powder, RE211 powder and RE023 powder.

[0028] Step S200, a precursor powder combination is prepared according to the combination of the original powders, the precursor powder combination includes a first precursor powder, a second precursor powder and a buffer layer powder, the second precursor powder has a smaller particle size than the first precursor powder;

[0029] It should be noted that the first precursor powder is composed of RE123 and RE211, which is a traditional precursor powder formula (CPP), and the particle size is relatively large. The second precursor powder is composed of RE200 and RE023, which is a fine precursor powder formula (MPP). It should be noted that step S200 includes step S210, step S220 and step S230.

[0030] Step S210, RE123 powder and RE211 powder are weighed and mixed according to a molar ratio of 1:0.35, and 1wt% of CeO2 powder is added to the mixed powder for mixing treatment, to obtain the first precursor powder;

[0031] Step S220, RE200 powder and RE023 powder are weighed and mixed according to a molar ratio of 0.72:1, and 1wt% of CeO2 powder is added to the mixed powder for mixing treatment, to obtain the second precursor powder;

[0032] Step S230, RE123 powder and RE211 powder are weighed and mixed according to a molar ratio of 1:0.4, and 1wt% of CeO2 powder is added to the mixed powder for mixing treatment, to obtain the buffer layer powder.

[0033] Step S300, based on the preset embryo preparation method, a combined precursor embryo and a buffer layer are obtained by using precursor powder combination pressing, the combined precursor embryo includes a second precursor embryo arranged at the bottom and a first precursor embryo coaxially and equally placed above the second precursor embryo;

[0034] It can be understood that the hierarchical design of the first precursor embryo and the second precursor embryo is to optimize the microstructure of the superconducting bulk material. The second precursor embryo at the bottom can form more pinning centers due to containing more refined particles, thereby improving the superconducting performance of the lower layer region. The first precursor embryo at the upper layer serves to provide mechanical strength. It should be noted that step S300 includes step S310, step S320, step S330 and step S340.

[0035] Step S310, 20g of the first precursor powder is weighed and placed into a square mold with a side length of 30mm for pressure pressing treatment to obtain the first precursor embryo;

[0036] Step S320, 20g of the second precursor powder is weighed and placed into a square mold with a side length of 30mm for pressure pressing treatment to obtain the second precursor embryo;

[0037] Step S330, the first precursor embryo is coaxially and equally placed above the second precursor embryo to obtain the combined precursor embryo;

[0038] Step S340, 0.25g of the buffer layer powder is weighed and placed into a cylindrical mold with a diameter of 6mm for pressure pressing treatment to obtain the buffer layer.

[0039] Step S400, based on the preset top seed crystal melting texture method, the REBCO original seed crystal, the combined precursor embryo and the buffer layer are processed to obtain an initial REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material;

[0040] It can be understood that the top seed crystal melting texture method (TSMG) is a seed crystal induced growth technology used to prepare high-performance REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk materials. By controlling the melting temperature and cooling rate, the seed crystal can induce the lower layer combined precursor embryo to form a textured superconducting phase. It should be noted that step S400 includes step S410 and step S420.

[0041] Step S410, the buffer layer is inserted between the REBCO original seed crystal and the combined precursor embryo to obtain a coaxial combined structure, the coaxial combined structure includes the REBCO original seed crystal, the buffer layer and the combined precursor embryo coaxially from top to bottom;

[0042] It can be understood that the coaxial combination structure ensures the close contact between the seed crystal, the buffer layer and the precursor embryo, which helps to induce uniform heat conduction and chemical composition diffusion in the growth process. It should be noted that step S410 includes step S411 and step S412.

[0043] Step S411, select a 3mm x 3mm x 3mm REBCO original seed crystal with a smooth base surface, polish the base surface of the REBCO original seed crystal to obtain a treated REBCO original seed crystal.

[0044] Step S412, the center axis of the treated REBCO original seed crystal perpendicular to the ground is respectively corresponding to the center axis of the buffer layer and the center axis of the combined precursor embryo, and the REBCO original seed crystal is placed between the buffer layer and the combined precursor embryo, to obtain a coaxial combination structure.

[0045] Step S420, place the combined structure on an alumina ceramic plate and place it in a high-temperature furnace in an air atmosphere for texture growth, to obtain an initial REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material induced by the REBCO original seed crystal.

[0046] It can be understood that this step uses the crystal direction guiding effect of the REBCO original seed crystal to form a high-quality superconducting phase structure through melt texture growth, thereby improving the superconducting performance. It should be noted that step S420 includes step S421, step S422 and step S423.

[0047] Step S421, the temperature in the high-temperature furnace is increased from room temperature to 900℃ for 1h and kept for 3h, then continues to heat for 1h, and the temperature in the high-temperature furnace is increased to 1055℃ and kept for 1h.

[0048] Step S422, reduce the furnace temperature to 1005℃ within 30 minutes, then reduce the furnace temperature at a rate of 0.2K / h to 0.4K / h, so that the REBCO original seed crystal in the furnace induces the growth of the combined precursor embryo for 100h.

[0049] It should be noted that the above temperature program is applicable to the preparation of YBCO superconducting bulk material using a top seed melt texture method, wherein the top seed is a SmBCO seed crystal.

[0050] In some embodiments, the temperature program for the textured growth of the GdBCO superconducting bulk material prepared by the top seeded (SmBCO seed) melt textured method is as follows: the temperature is raised from room temperature to 900 °C in 1 h and kept for 3 h; then the temperature is raised to the maximum temperature (Tm) 1055 °C in 1 h and kept for 1 h; the temperature is rapidly decreased to 1045 °C within 10 min; then the temperature is decreased at a rate of 0.3 K / h to 0.6 K / h, so that the GdBCO sample in the furnace grows slowly for 100 h; after the sample growth is completed, the temperature is rapidly decreased to room temperature in 3 h, and a GdBCO high temperature superconducting bulk material is prepared.

[0051] Similarly, the temperature program for the textured growth of the SmBCO superconducting bulk material prepared by the top seeded (NdBCO seed) melt textured method is as follows: the temperature is raised from room temperature to 900 °C in 1 h and kept for 3 h; then the temperature is raised to the maximum temperature (Tm) 1075 °C in 1 h and kept for 1 h; the temperature is rapidly decreased to 1060 °C within 10 min; then the temperature is decreased at a rate of 0.3 K / h to 0.6 K / h, so that the SmBCO sample in the furnace grows slowly for 100 h; after the sample growth is completed, the temperature is rapidly decreased to room temperature in 3 h, and a SmBCO high temperature superconducting bulk material is prepared.

[0052] Step S423, after the sample growth is completed, the temperature of the high temperature furnace is decreased to room temperature within 3 h.

[0053] Specifically, during the growth process, the first precursor embryo (CPP layer) on the upper layer of the precursor embryo is composed of RE123 and RE211, and the second precursor embryo (MPP layer) on the lower layer is composed of RE200 and RE023. At high temperature, the RE123 in the CPP layer will undergo non-uniform melting and transform into a combination of micron-sized RE211 solid phase and RE023 liquid phase. Due to the high volume fraction of RE211 particles in the CPP layer, a solid phase skeleton is formed in the liquid phase, while the MPP layer below is mainly composed of RE023 liquid phase, in which RE200 exists in the form of nanoscale size. Therefore, when the precursor embryo is subjected to temperature rise, with the non-uniform melting of RE123, the solid phase skeleton of the CPP layer gradually increases, and the liquid phase of the MPP layer below carries RE200 particles upward for solute penetration and reacts with the liquid phase in the CPP layer to generate extremely fine RE211 particles. Since the oxygen generated in this process is closer to the edge of the bulk material, the oxygen is more likely to escape from the solid melt, and the porosity of the initial REBCO high temperature superconducting bulk material (C-MPP sample) is also reduced. Since RE200 and RE023 generate extremely fine RE211 particles, which form more pinning centers with the RE123 matrix, the superconducting performance of the C-MPP sample is also increased.

[0054] Step S500, obtaining the final REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material by heat treatment according to the initial REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material.

[0055] Specifically, this step adjusts the content and distribution of oxygen in the superconducting phase through the post-heat treatment of oxygen permeation annealing, optimizes the crystallization state, and improves the superconducting performance of the superconducting bulk material. It should be noted that step S500 includes step S510 and step S520.

[0056] Step S510, grinding and polishing the initial REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material to obtain a pretreated bulk material;

[0057] Step S520, placing the pretreated bulk material into a high-temperature furnace with a flowing oxygen atmosphere, and performing oxygen permeation annealing at a temperature of 450°C for 200h to obtain the final REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material.

[0058] Further, after obtaining the REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material, the application also includes performance testing of the final REBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material (C-MPP sample). In order to illustrate the superiority of the prepared sample in performance, two bulk materials are prepared under the same conditions using the traditional precursor powder formulation and the refined precursor powder formulation and process, respectively, and are denoted as CPP sample and MPP sample.

[0059] The performance testing method of the REBCO superconducting bulk material covers two key aspects of porosity characterization and magnetic levitation force characterization. First, the porosity characterization is measured and compared by optical observation of the bulk material along the a-c section and the use of image processing software. As shown in FIG. 2, the C-MPP sample shows obvious advantages over the traditional MPP sample, significantly reducing the number of pores and porosity, and improving the mechanical properties and application potential of the superconducting bulk material.

[0060] Second, the magnetic levitation force characterization uses the zero-field cold magnetization method to evaluate the magnetic performance of the superconducting bulk material. This method includes fixing the sample on a permanent magnet track, measuring its levitation force at different heights through liquid nitrogen cooling and specific magnetization process, and the test results are shown in Table 1. According to the force-area density and force-volume density data of different samples, the performance of the C-MPP sample in superconducting performance can be accurately evaluated, which proves that the C-MPP sample effectively improves the force-area / volume density of the sample based on the CPP and is on par with the MPP sample, improving the superconducting performance of the superconducting bulk material while ensuring the mechanical properties.

[0061] Table 1 Force-area density and force-volume density of different samples

[0062] In summary, such comprehensive testing method not only deeply analyzes the structural characteristics and mechanical properties of REBCO superconducting bulk material, but also effectively evaluates its performance in practical application, providing important theoretical support and experimental basis for further optimization and wide application of the technology.

[0063] The typical embodiments of the above detailed process method should be noted that in the preparation process of REBCO superconducting bulk material, those skilled in the art can make many modifications and changes according to the process method without creative labor. Therefore, any technical scheme obtained by logical analysis, reasoning and trying of those skilled in the art on the basis of the existing technology according to the concept of the process method, such as using NdBCO with higher melting point to grow SmBCO and GdBCO high-temperature superconducting bulk material with lower melting point, should be within the protection scope of the patent.
