Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of a high-reliability long-service-life silicon nitride ceramic ball for an aircraft bearing, and belongs to the technical field of silicon nitride ceramicball manufacturing. Metal organic salt (aluminum isopropoxide and metal acetate) is used as a precursor of a sintering aid, and the surface of silicon nitride can be coated with the sintering aid through hydrolysis, spray drying and calcination processes, so that uniform dispersion of the sintering aid in silicon nitride is realized; therefore, the reduction of reliability and fatigue life of theceramic ball caused by agglomeration and segregation of the sintering aid is avoided. The result of the embodiment shows that the density of the silicon nitride ceramic ball prepared by the method reaches 99.9% or above, the Vickers hardness (HV10) is larger than 1500, the crushing load ratio is larger than 45%, the Weibull modulus is larger than 15, the rolling contact fatigue life (RCF) is 400 hor above, and the silicon nitride ceramic ball is particularly suitable for manufacturing rolling elements for aviation bearings.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of manufacturing silicon nitride ceramic balls, in particular to a method for preparing silicon nitride ceramic balls with high reliability and long life for aviation bearings. Background technique [0002] Aviation bearings are one of the key core components of aero-engines, which need to deal with extremely harsh environmental and working conditions such as high speed, high temperature, large maneuverability, large overload, and lean oil lubrication in the aviation field. The performance and quality of aviation bearings directly affect the service life and reliability of aircraft engines, and are also one of the main factors affecting the combat effectiveness of aircraft equipment. [0003] Silicon nitride ceramics have the characteristics of light specific gravity, high rigidity, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, self-lubrication and electrical insulation, etc., and have ...
