what is the application of Nano Zirconia in Refractories

 Under the situation of rapid development of science and technology, to prepare high-temperature, high-performance, new-type materials, the first thing to do is to solve the refractory materials needed in the preparation process. The characteristics of refractory materials are as follows:


1. Mechanical properties

The elastic modulus of special refractory materials is large. Most have higher mechanical strength, but compared with metal materials, due to brittleness, impact resistance is very low. Most special refractory materials have high hardness, so they have better resistance to wear, airflow or dust erosion. Most special refractory materials have relatively small high-temperature creep is molybdenum disilicide. The size of the creep value is related to the crystal size, grain boundary material, porosity, etc.


2. Thermal properties

(1) Thermal expansion: Thermal expansion refers to the reversible increase and decrease of the linearity and volume temperature of the material. It is often expressed in terms of linear expansion number or volume expansion coefficient. Most special refractory materials have relatively large linear expansion coefficients, only fused silica, boron oxide, and silicon oxide have relatively small linear expansion coefficients.


3. Nature of Use

(1) Fire resistance: The melting points of special refractory materials are almost all above 2000°C, and hafnium carbide (HfC) and tantalum carbide (TaC) are 3887°C and 3877°C. The refractoriness is also very high. In an oxidizing atmosphere, the operating temperature of the oxide is even close to the melting point. Nitrides, borides, and carbides have higher operating temperatures than oxides in neutral or reducing atmospheres. For example, TaC can be used up to 3000°C in N2 atmosphere, and BN can be used up to 2800°C in Ar atmosphere. The high temperature resistance is in order: carbide>boride>nitride>oxide. And their high temperature oxidation resistance is: oxide>boride>nitride>carbide.

(2) Thermal shock resistance: In special refractory materials, due to the low thermal conductivity of beryllium oxide, the thermal conductivity of most borides is not high, and the linear expansion coefficient of fused silica is particularly small, so thermal shock resistance is very high. good. Certain fiber products and fiber-reinforced composite products have higher porosity and tensile strength, and these materials have better thermal shock resistance. Silicon carbide, silicon nitride, boron nitride, molybdenum disilicide, etc. also have good thermal shock resistance.

However, there are not many oxide materials with high melting point, good chemical stability, and excellent high temperature performance. Zirconia (high temperature (2300℃~2400℃)) has good chemical stability, is not easy to decompose, and has strong corrosion resistance to acid and alkali slag. Good special oxide refractory material.

Nano zirconia is a white powder, which can be divided into monoclinic phase, tetragonal phase and cubic phase due to the sintering temperature and the content of stabilizers such as added yttrium oxide. It is soluble in sulfuric acid and hydrofluoric acid. Nano zirconia has good dispersibility, good thermochemical stability, high temperature conductivity, high strength and toughness, good mechanical, thermal, electrical, and optical properties. Nano zirconia has small particle size, strong stability, acid resistance, Alkali resistance, corrosion resistance, and high temperature resistance.

Zirconia refractories refer to products with zirconia as the main component. At present, the domestic requirements of this kind of refractory materials for zirconia are concentrated in three series: ZrO2-CaO, ZrO2-MgO, ZrO2-Y203, of which Z-CaO is used in large quantities. The quality level of zirconia refractory products largely depends on the raw materials. The chemical composition of the zirconia raw materials determines the possible crystal structure of the material and the chemical stability of the product. The particle size control of the raw materials basically determines the performance of the product. The preparation process determines the crystal structure and impurity content of the raw materials.

The role of zirconia in refractories
(1) Good chemical stability, prolong the corrosion of Fe and other metal ions to refractory products.
(2) Improve the performance of materials and improve the thermal stability of refractory products.
(3) According to the different properties of the compound item, the production process can be optimized to improve the performance of the refractory product and reduce the production cost.

What is silicon carbide whiskers and its application

Silicon carbide whiskers are a kind of single-crystal fiber with a certain length-to-diameter ratio, which has very good high temperature resistance and high strength. It is mainly used in toughening applications where high temperature and high strength applications are required. Such as: aerospace materials, high-speed cutting tools. At present, it has a very high performance-price ratio. Silicon carbide whiskers are cubic whiskers, and diamonds belong to a crystal form. They are the whiskers with the highest hardness, the largest modulus, the highest tensile strength and the highest heat resistance temperature. It is both α-type and β-type, in which β-type performance is better than α-type and has higher hardness (Mohs hardness of 9.5 or more), better toughness and electrical conductivity, anti-wear, high temperature resistance, especially earthquake resistance Corrosion-resistant, radiation-resistant, has been applied to aircraft, missile casings and engines, high-temperature turbi...

Ultra-high density semiconductor type single-walled carbon nanotube horizontal array

ChinaPeking Universitycooperate with Chinese Academy of Sciencesto use ethanol / methanebychemical vapor deposition method to get ultrahigh-density semiconductor array level of  single-walled carbon nanotube . Nowadays, as electronic devices become smaller and smaller, silicon transistors have reached the bottleneck of their development. The horizontal array ofsingle-walled carbon nanotubesis regarded as the most powerful successor of future transistors due to its excellent performance. At present, obtaining high-purity, high-density horizontal arrays of single-walled carbon nanotubes is a major challenge for researchers. Although the direct formation of horizontal arrays ofsingle-walled carbon nanotubeson a substrate by chemical vapor deposition is an effective method for realizing high-performance electronic devices, conventional chemical vapor deposition is extremely active due to the generated methane plasma and ultra-high temperature hydrogen atoms....

Fipronil is one of the most widely used insecticide in the world

Fipronil products  is a broad-spectrum insecticide that belongs to the phenylpyrazole chemical family. it disrupts the insect central nervous system by blocking GABA-gated chloride channels and glutamate-gated chloride (GluCl) channels. This causes hyperexcitation of contaminated insects' nerves and muscles. It's specificity towards insects is believed to be due to its greater affinity to the GABA receptor in insects relative to mammals and its effect on GluCl channels, which do not exist in mammals. Because of its effectiveness on a large number of pests,  Fipronil products  is used as the active ingredient in flea control products for pets and home roach traps as well as field pest control for corn, golf courses, and commercial turf. Its widespread use makes its specific effects the subject of considerable attention. This includes ongoing observations on possible off-target harm to humans or ecosystems as well as the monitoring of resistance development. Use: Under the ...
