摘要
以TiO_2和纳米炭黑为原料,机械干法混合后,在Ar气氛下微波碳热合成纳米TiC。合成产物通过XRD和SEM进行表征,研究了TiO_2粒径、反应温度、保温时间对微波碳热合成纳米TiC物相、显微形貌和TiO_2自身转化率的影响。实验结果表明,微波碳热还原合成纳米TiC经1300℃保温40 min和1400℃保温30 min可使TiO_2充分反应,且粒径为40 nm的TiO_2的转化率可达到98.2%,合成的TiC粒度分布均匀,平均粒径约小于100 nm。此外,根据固相扩散机制对不同反应温度下两种粒径TiO_2转化率随时间的变化进行了Avrami方程拟合,并绘制了两种粒径TiO_2的转化曲线,为TiO_2与纳米炭黑微波合成纳米TiC提供理论参考。
TiC powders were prepared via microwave carbothermic reduction in Ar with TiO_2 and nano-carbon black as starting materials. Effects of TiO_2 particle sizes, temperature and holding time on phase compositions, particle morphologies and TiC yields in the reaction products were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Avrami equation was fitted to the change of TiO_2 conversion with time at different temperatures. Results show that TiO_2 powders with average diameters ranging from 40 to 400 nm were fully reduced at 1300-1400℃ for 30-40 min with TiC yield as high as 98.2%. TiC powder with uniform particle size less than 100 nm was obtained in case of reaction at 1400℃ for 30 min by using 40 nm TiO_2 as starting material. Transformation curves of TiO_2 were prepared for the synthesis of nano-TiC by microwave carbothermic reduction.
