Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing a boron carbide ceramic material through low-temperature fast sintering. The method is characterized in comprising the following steps: a hard template is adopted as a structure-directing agent; porous boron carbide powder is synthesized with a nano-scale casting method; the porous boron carbide powder is added into a graphite mold, and the mold is placed into a chamber of a spark plasma sintering furnace; sintering is carried out under vacuum and in an inert or reductive atmosphere; after sintering, the product is cooled to room temperature with the furnace; and grinding is carried out, such that the boron carbide ceramic material is obtained. According to the low-temperature fast sintering boron carbide ceramic preparation method, the porous boron carbide powder is adopted as a sintering raw material. The porous boron carbide powder has the advantages of large specific surface area, high surface energy, good sintering activity, and the like, such that the powder is easier to be densified during sintering. Also, pressurization can be realized during a sintering process with a spark plasma sintering technology, such that pore collapse and densification of the porous boron carbide powder can be facilitated, and thus the boron carbide ceramic can be obtained under a relatively low temperature. The technology has advantages of fast temperature increasing speed, short sintering time, and the like. The method is an energy-saving and environment-friendly preparation method, and has good application prospect.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ceramic materials, in particular to a method for preparing boron carbide ceramic materials by low-temperature rapid sintering. Background technique [0002] Boron carbide is one of the important special ceramic materials with high hardness and high modulus. It has good thermal stability under inert atmosphere, strong oxidation resistance, low density (2.52g / cm 3 ), good wear resistance and other excellent properties, it can be used in air nozzles, lightweight armor plates, wear-resistant materials and other fields. Due to the strong neutron absorption efficiency of boron atoms, it is also a popular research object for neutron absorbing or shielding materials in the nuclear industry. But boron carbide (chemical formula is B 4 C) In the crystal structure, about more than 93% of boron and carbon are combined in the form of strong covalent bonds, the self-diffusion coefficient is low, and the grain boundar...
