Problems solved by technology

Among them, the melt-spray method can produce high-density lithium ceramic microspheres, but the defect of this method is that it uses an expensive platinum-rhodium alloy furnace
When using the traditional wet method to prepare lithium ceramic microspheres, since the gel solid content of the microsphere precursor is difficult to exceed 50%, the density of the final formed lithium ceramic microspheres is difficult to be higher than 90% T.D. (theoretical density)
[0005] Most of the existing ceramic microsphere preparation methods need to pre-prepare the ceramic powder of the ternary lithium compound, and then generate ceramic microspheres. The sphericity of the ceramic microspheres is not good, the internal pore structure is not rich enough, and the particle size of the microspheres is difficult to control. Poor particle size dispersion

Abstract

The freeze forming preparation process of ternary lithium ceramic microsphere includes the following steps: mixing the material for ternary lithium ceramic microsphere, high molecular adhesive and solvent, mixing in a ball mill to form suspension slurry and defoaming; dropping the slurry into cooling medium to form microsphere in a microsphere forming unit, and low temperature vacuum drying in a freezing drier to form ceramic microsphere precursor; roasting, calcining and sintering; and programmed heat treatment to obtain ternary lithium ceramic microsphere. The ternary lithium ceramic microsphere has high sphericity, controllable size, high size dispersivity, high apparent density, high phase purity, high strength and other features.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of porous ceramic microspheres, and in particular relates to a method for preparing ternary lithium ceramic microspheres by freeze molding. Background technique [0002] In order to solve the world's energy shortage problem, countries regard research as one of the effective ways to develop new energy and solve the energy crisis. The fuel tritium needed in the thermonuclear fusion reactor is generally passed through 6 Li(n,α)T reaction to achieve. In order to realize the fuel cycle, the reactor must achieve the "self-sustainability" of tritium. For this reason, it is necessary to add a lithium-containing tritium breeder to the cladding, and use the neutrons produced by the D-T reaction in the core to react with the lithium-containing material in the breeding cladding. Tritium multiplication is achieved by generating tritium. [0003] As a solid tritium-producing ceramic material (tritium mul...
