Abstract: To explore the influence of the organic carbon source on the refining of TiB2 powder,TiB2 powder was prepared by borothermal/carbothermal reduction using TiO2,B4C and sucrose as raw materials,insulating at 1 150,1 250,1 350 and 1 450 ℃ for 30 min,respectively.The reaction mechanism of the TiO2-B4C-sucrose system,as well as the refining mechanism of TiB2 grains was initially explored.The results show that Ti2O3 and TiC are two important intermediate products during the borothermal/carbothermal reduction process,which are both generated by the direct reaction of TiO2 and C.Subsequently,TiB2 may be generated with Ti2O3 or TiC as the titanium source reacting with B2O3 and C.In addition,the highly activated nanocarbon from sucrose pyrolysis has a pore structure,which can improve the reaction efficiency and successfully enable the preparation of submicron TiB2 powder with an average particle size of 0.35 μm under the condition of insulating at 1 450 ℃ for 30 min.

摘要: 为探讨有机碳源对TiB2粉体细化的影响,以TiO2、B4C和蔗糖为原料,分别在1 150、1 250、1 350、1 450 ℃ 保温30 min,通过硼热/碳热还原法制备了TiB2粉体,并初步探讨了TiO2-B4C-蔗糖体系的反应机制以及TiB2晶粒的细化机制。结果表明:在硼热/碳热还原过程中,Ti2O3和TiC是两种重要的中间产物,且均由TiO2和C直接反应生成,随后TiB2则可能以Ti2O3或TiC为钛源分别与B2O3和C反应生成。此外,由于蔗糖裂解出的高活性纳米碳具有孔隙结构,可提高反应效率,使得该体系在1 450 ℃保温30 min的条件下成功制备出平均粒径为0.35 μm的亚微米级TiB2粉体。
