This invention discloses a rare-earth-doped glass
polishing powder, its preparation method, and its applications. The
polishing powder uses
cerium oxide as a matrix, and introduces one or more rare-earth elements from
lanthanum,
yttrium,
dysprosium, or
erbium through co-
precipitation. This allows the rare-earth elements to be uniformly doped into the
cerium oxide lattice, forming a stable
solid solution structure.
Calcination is then used to control the grain size and
oxygen vacancy distribution. Subsequently, a
phosphate ester modifier is used to modify the surface of the
polishing powder to improve particle dispersibility and
slurry stability. The rare-earth-doped glass polishing powder prepared by this invention exhibits a high
material removal rate (1.52-1.63 mg / min) and a low post-polishing
surface roughness (1.63-1.82 nm) during glass polishing, while also demonstrating excellent
dispersion stability and consistency in use. This invention is applicable to
optical glass, display glass, and ultra-clear glass, and has significant industrial application value.
