Problems solved by technology

However, it is difficult to achieve fast and low-cost preparation of high-strength bismuth telluride materials by using a slow zone melting process to prepare polycrystalline rods with preferred orientation
[0003] The traditional preparation idea based on mechanical ball milling to obtain grain refinement can reduce the lattice thermal conductivity of the material, but ball milling will introduce a large number of defects of different scales and lead to different orientations of the grains, which makes the carrier mobility of the material Significant drop, resulting in extremely low electrical conductivity, low power factor greatly limits the application of the material
In addition, the process of crystal rod cutting and ball milling into powder will also bring about many problems such as moisture absorption, oxidation and introduction of harmful impurity ions in the powder.
In addition, the ball mill running at high speed during the milling process will bring a lot of dust, and the large-scale production of the factory will cause environmental pollution, especially harmful to the health of operators

Embodiment 3

[0108] The difference from Example 1 is that during the fused deposition process, the metal support at the bottom of the outer crucible is actively cooled, and the temperature of the metal support is -150°C by externally connecting liquid nitrogen coolant. When the molten drop hits the bottom of the outer crucible After turning into a liquid film, the purpose of rapid cooling is achieved. The cooling rate is 250K / S. The ultra-low temperature deposition environment can effectively inhibit the growth of the grains of the molten droplets during the cooling process, and obtain directional deposition blocks with smaller grain sizes. , followed by vacuum hot-press sintering to obtain high-strength P-type bismuth telluride-based thermoelectric materials.

Abstract

The invention discloses a high-strength and high-efficiency bismuth telluride block. The bismuth telluride block is in a lamellar shape; the bismuth telluride block is a P-type lamellar bismuth telluride block of Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3+x, and the value range of x is 0-0.05, or, the bismuth telluride block is an N-type lamellar bismuth telluride block of Bi2Te3-ySey, and y ranges from 0 to 0.3. The bismuth telluride block is of a special lamellar structure and has the double characteristics of high orientation degree and grain refinement, and the bismuth telluride block can be directly used for vacuum hot pressing sintering or vacuum thermal deformation sintering without being cut and / or ground into powder. And the bismuth telluride-based thermoelectric material with high thermoelectric figure of merit and high strength can be rapidly prepared.

technical field [0001] The application relates to a high-strength and high-efficiency bismuth telluride block and its preparation method and application, belonging to the technical field of bismuth telluride-based thermoelectric materials. Background technique [0002] Traditional commercial high-strength bismuth telluride bulk materials mainly use bismuth telluride zone-fused polycrystalline rods with preferred orientation as the initial raw material, and then prepare powders with suitable particle sizes through cutting, crushing, high-energy ball milling and other processes. The bismuth telluride block is obtained by hot pressing and sintering. This polycrystalline bismuth telluride block prepared by powder technology can not only greatly improve the mechanical strength and processability of the material, but more importantly, it can greatly reduce the lattice thermal conductivity by refining the grains and introducing nanostructures. , improve the ZT figure of merit (the...
