The invention discloses an
infrared transparent
ceramic material with a wide transmission
wave band and a preparation method of the
infrared transparent
ceramic material, and belongs to the field of inorganic
ceramic materials. The
chemical formula of the
infrared transparent ceramic material is (Y < 1-x >, Re < x >) 2O3-(Mg < 1-y > Re < y >) O, and x is more than 0 and less than 4%; 0 < y < 30%; re is one of Zn < 2 + >, Mn < 2 + > and Ni < 2 + >; the preparation method of the infrared transparent ceramic material comprises the following steps: firstly, preparing primary Y2O3-(Mg1-yRey) O
powder; placing the
powder and a binder in a ball milling tank, adding a solution of a compound of Re < 2 + > with the
molar percentage of x, and carrying out ball milling to obtain
slurry;
drying, crushing, sieving and calcining the
slurry to obtain (Y < 1-x >, Re < x >) 2O3-(Mg < 1-y > Re < y >) O
powder; the preparation method comprises the following steps: performing equiaxial bidirectional pressure forming on Y2O3 nano powder, then adding (Y < 1-x >, Re < x >) 2O3-(Mg < 1-y > Re < y >) O powder for forming, and then adding Y2O3 nano powder for forming to obtain a ceramic biscuit with a
composite structure; and performing double-sided
laser sintering on the ceramic biscuit, removing Y2O3 on the upper
surface layer and the lower
surface layer, and performing double-sided
polishing treatment to obtain the infrared transparent ceramic material. The biscuit
composite structure design and the
laser sintering technology are adopted, the
oxygen vacancy defect generated by traditional
sintering can be effectively avoided, therefore, an air annealing technology is not needed, and meanwhile the problems that the valence state of Re < 2 + > is unstable and oxidation is prone to occurring are effectively avoided. The densification of the multiphase ceramic is realized in an extremely short time by
laser sintering, the grain size is effectively inhibited, the grain scattering is avoided, and the near-infrared
transmittance of the ceramic is improved.
