摘要
通过溶胶-凝胶法制备ZrSiO4粉体,研究了煅烧温度、保温时间和催化剂(铁离子)对ZrSiO4合成率的影响;采用XRD、SEM、激光粒度仪等分析了ZrSiO4的晶相组成、结晶形貌以及产物粒径大小。实验结果表明:未添加催化剂时,ZrSiO4的合成温度高达1500℃;引入催化剂铁离子之后,在1200℃合成率可达到91.20%,合成温度降低了300℃,得到的粉体颗粒发育完善,结晶性好。烧结机理分析表明,Si4+的扩散是影响硅酸锆形成的主要因素;加入的铁以Fe3+的形式进入到ZrSiO4结构中,取代部分Si4+,产生空位,加速Si4+的扩散,从而有效地促进ZrSiO4的结晶,降低ZrSiO4的合成温度。
ZrSiO4 has been synthesized by a sol-gel method.The effects of varying the sintering temperature,sintering duration and content of Fe3 +catalyst on the yield of ZrSiO4 were investigated.The compositions,microstructures and grain size of the products were studied by XRD,SEM and laser particle size analysis,respectively.The temperature required to synthesize ZrSiO4 without a catalyst is as high as 1500 ℃.However the sintering temperature can be reduced by 300 ℃ to 1200 ℃ by adding Fe3 +cations as a catalyst,giving a yield of 91.20%.The powder particles have a high degree of crystallinity.According to our analysis of the sintering mechanism,Fe3 +cations enter into the ZrSiO4 structure to replace part of the Si4 +and form a solid solution,resulting in the vacancies which accelerate the diffusion of Si4 +.This is the main factor affecting the formation of ZrSiO4,and by promoting crystallization in this way the synthesis temperature can be reduced.
