Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing the spherical nano tungsten powder by using high frequency Ar+NH3+H2 mixed gas plasma to reduce ammonium paratungstate (APT) directly. In a high frequency plasma device, central gas and side gas uses Ar, carrier gas uses NH3and H2, and stably and continuously operating high frequency Ar+NH3+H2 mixed gas plasma is built. Material APT is added into the plasma by the drive of the carrier gas through a feeder and is further reduced to metal tungsten under the atmosphere of high reactivity high frequency Ar+NH3+H2 mixed gas plasma, and the metal tungsten is subjected to subsequent cooling and collection to obtain the spherical nano tungsten powder. The frequency Ar+NH3+H2 mixed gas plasma has the advantages that arc cylinders are long and thick, the cylinders are full, exhaust plume has no gap, problems of defects in arc cylinder contraction and exhaust plume and short reaction time of ordinary high frequency Ar+ H2 plasma are overcome, dwell time of materials in plasma arcs is prolonged, an ATP reduction process is strengthened, and the spherical nano tungsten powder is obtained. The spherical nano tungsten powder can be used in fields of electric vacuum cathode materials, thermal spraying and powder metallurgy.
