The invention relates to a preparation method of an
alumina-based foamed
ceramic spherical shell for civil air defense
engineering. The preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing a pug by taking 67-80 wt% of
alumina powder, 15-18 wt% of Guangxi white mud and 5-13 wt% of kaolin as raw materials, adding 10-15 wt% of a binder, 10-40 wt% of water and 40-80 wt% of a pore-forming agentand performing uniform mixing; filling the pug into a hemispherical shell mold with the outer
diameter of 8-12 cm and the inner
diameter of 4-6 cm, pressing the pug into a hemispherical shell
green body under the pressure of 1-4 Mpa, butting and combining the side openings of hemispherical shells into a hollow sphere under the same pressure to form a hollow sphere, and demolding the hollow sphere;firstly curing the hollow sphere for 2-5 h at 25 DEG C, then
drying the hollow sphere for 6-12 h at 60-110 DEG C, then putting the hollow sphere in an
air atmosphere, heating the hollow sphere to 1100-1300 DEG C at a speed of 1-5 DEG C / min, keeping the temperature for 1-2 h, and performing
sintering and sealing to obtain the
alumina-based foamed
ceramic spherical shell. The raw materials used inthe invention are cheap and easy to obtain, the production efficiency is high, no byproduct is produced in the production process, safety and
environmental protection are achieved, automatic production can be achieved, and the alumina-based foamed
ceramic spherical shell prepared in the invention is high in strength, uniform in wall thickness and controllable in density, wall thickness, sphere size and normal-temperature mechanical properties.
