2、斯特大道53號(hào), 郵編01742摘要賓夕法尼亞州立大學(xué)材料研究室的研究已經(jīng)證明通過(guò)使用壓電陶瓷/聚合物復(fù)合材料可以改進(jìn)檢漏器(水診器)潛能。作為美國(guó)海軍研究局的資助計(jì)劃的一部分，旨在開(kāi)發(fā)針對(duì)這些合成物且具有成本效益制造技術(shù)，材料系統(tǒng)正在尋求一種陶瓷制造方法的注射成型。本文簡(jiǎn)要概覽了陶瓷注射成型過(guò)程的關(guān)鍵細(xì)節(jié)，并且記敘了制造壓電陶瓷/聚合物復(fù)合材料的步驟及方法論。注射成型壓電陶瓷的設(shè)備和應(yīng)用程序都是區(qū)別于傳統(tǒng)的材料的加工。緒論壓電陶瓷/聚合物復(fù)合材料提供了設(shè)計(jì)的多功能性和性能優(yōu)勢(shì)，在遙感和驅(qū)動(dòng)應(yīng)用方面都超越單獨(dú)的陶瓷與聚合物的壓電材料。這些合成物已經(jīng)被開(kāi)始用于高解析度超聲醫(yī)學(xué)以及海軍的發(fā)展應(yīng)用。

3、在過(guò)去的十三年里，許多復(fù)合的配置已經(jīng)按照一個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)室的規(guī)模被構(gòu)造且評(píng)估。其中最成功的組合之一，被指定復(fù)合物的紐納姆號(hào)，有一個(gè)三維連接陶瓷階段(壓電纖維)內(nèi)含三維連接有機(jī)聚合物的階段。檢漏器的性能系數(shù)可使得這個(gè)復(fù)合物超過(guò)那些通過(guò)適當(dāng)選擇階段特征和復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)的固體材料10000倍。 賓州州立大學(xué)復(fù)合物的制備是通過(guò)在一個(gè)跳汰機(jī)和封裝環(huán)氧樹(shù)脂中手調(diào)擠壓壓電陶瓷棒，之后限制適當(dāng)?shù)暮穸炔O化陶瓷。除了這種材料所展示出的性能優(yōu)勢(shì)，賓州州立大學(xué)的工作所凸顯的問(wèn)題涉及合成物的大規(guī)模制造或者甚至以原型為目的。這些是：(1)在通過(guò)聚合物封裝時(shí)大量的壓電陶瓷光纖的庫(kù)存和供給需求。(2)在極化過(guò)程中發(fā)生率高的介電擊穿是起于

4、在一個(gè)典型的大型陣列遇到一個(gè)或多個(gè)有缺陷的纖維的顯著概率。在過(guò)去的五年里，為了提高制造行業(yè)的生存能力并降低材料成本已經(jīng)多次嘗試簡(jiǎn)化傳感器的組裝工藝。早期的嘗試包括將壓電陶瓷的固體塊切割至理想的配置和聚合體階段的空缺回填。這項(xiàng)技術(shù)已經(jīng)被超聲醫(yī)學(xué)工業(yè)接受并用于制造高頻傳感器。最近，纖維材料公司已經(jīng)證明了其用于纖維增強(qiáng)復(fù)合材料的編織技術(shù)在裝配壓電材料方面的適應(yīng)性。另外的一項(xiàng)探索技術(shù)涉及復(fù)制多孔織物已經(jīng)有適當(dāng)?shù)倪B通性。對(duì)于極其精密尺度的復(fù)合材料，纖維的直徑大約為20至100微米，長(zhǎng)寬比大于5以滿足裝置性能需要的目標(biāo)。因此，這些困難再加上額外的成型與處理龐大數(shù)量且無(wú)缺陷的極其精細(xì)的纖維的挑戰(zhàn)。最近，西門

5、子公司的研究人員表明非常精密尺度的復(fù)合材料可以通過(guò)一種不定的模具技術(shù)來(lái)制造。然而，這種方法需要為每一個(gè)部分制造一個(gè)新的模具。本文介紹一種壓電復(fù)合加工的新方法，即:陶瓷注射成型。陶瓷注射成型無(wú)論對(duì)海軍的壓電陶瓷/聚合物復(fù)合材料或是對(duì)于極其加工規(guī)模的壓電復(fù)合材料(如那些所需的高頻超聲醫(yī)療及無(wú)損評(píng)估)都是一種具有成本效益的制造方法。注塑成型過(guò)程克服了通過(guò)網(wǎng)型預(yù)成型陶瓷纖維整列使裝配導(dǎo)向陶瓷纖維進(jìn)入復(fù)合材料傳感器的困難。除了這個(gè)優(yōu)勢(shì)，該方法使得比那些以前的設(shè)想具有更復(fù)雜陶瓷元素幾何的復(fù)合傳感器成為可能，以致產(chǎn)生了為提高聲阻抗匹配性的更高的設(shè)計(jì)柔性以及橫向模式的取消。過(guò)程描述注塑成型被廣泛應(yīng)用于塑料行業(yè)

6、作為一種較低成本、形狀復(fù)雜的迅速大規(guī)模生產(chǎn)。此種方法最適合應(yīng)用于陶瓷小截面形狀，例如線程導(dǎo)向，以及無(wú)需燒結(jié)至很高密度的大而復(fù)雜的形狀，如渦輪機(jī)的葉片鑄造插入。最近，這種方法已被研究用作生產(chǎn)熱發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)渦輪部件的技術(shù)。如圖1所示，注塑成型方法已被用于壓電陶瓷的成型。通過(guò)將熱塑性塑料與陶瓷粉末的混合物有機(jī)結(jié)合并注入一個(gè)冷卻模具，復(fù)雜的形狀就能方便且快速的正常與塑料結(jié)合成型。預(yù)防例如像金屬接觸硬化的表面，盡量減少金屬?gòu)幕旌团c成型器械受到的污染。對(duì)于陶瓷，型腔必須無(wú)損拆除，迫使高的固體載荷，嚴(yán)格控制型腔移除的過(guò)程，以及適當(dāng)?shù)膴A具。一旦型腔移除，隨后點(diǎn)火，極化并且環(huán)氧樹(shù)脂的封裝過(guò)程是和那些常規(guī)壓電陶瓷/復(fù)合

7、材料類似。因此，此方法在替代制造路線上提供了很大優(yōu)勢(shì)：復(fù)雜，能夠同時(shí)處理許多纖維的近似網(wǎng)狀；快速的生產(chǎn)能力(通常是一部分幾秒)；統(tǒng)計(jì)過(guò)程控制的兼容性；材料的低浪費(fèi)；有關(guān)傳感器設(shè)計(jì)的柔性(允許pzt中元素空間和形狀的變化)；以及在中量至大量之間的低成本。一般來(lái)說(shuō)，由于最初加工的高成本，陶瓷注射成型的方法是最適用于復(fù)雜形狀的構(gòu)成，需要低成本大批量。 圖1 注射成型過(guò)程流程 圖2 制作合成物的預(yù)成型方法 合成物的制造及評(píng)價(jià)制造1-3壓電復(fù)合材料的方法如圖2a所示，這闡述了使用一個(gè)完整的陶瓷胚型到纖維定位作用的壓電陶瓷預(yù)先成型的概念。在聚合物封裝后采用磨削去除陶瓷胚。除了簡(jiǎn)化許多纖維的處理，這種預(yù)先成

8、型的方法允許廣泛地選擇壓電陶瓷元素幾何元素范圍，以使其性能最優(yōu)化。工具的設(shè)計(jì)是取得注塑壓電復(fù)合材料成功的重要因素。如圖2b所示的方法使用了無(wú)需導(dǎo)致額外重組成本的嵌入式的并允許局部變化的設(shè)計(jì)。圖2c所示如何配置個(gè)別的預(yù)加工的成品以形成大批生產(chǎn)在實(shí)踐中，材料和成型參數(shù)必須最優(yōu)化并成型工具的設(shè)計(jì)相結(jié)合以實(shí)現(xiàn)在成型后完整的脫模。關(guān)鍵的參數(shù)包括：壓電陶瓷/裝夾工具之比，壓電元件的直徑和錐度，壓電陶瓷基本軸向厚度，工具表面的磨光，以及成型零件的脫模機(jī)構(gòu)的設(shè)計(jì)。為了評(píng)估這些工藝參數(shù)而不承擔(dān)過(guò)多的工藝成本，一種工具的設(shè)計(jì)根據(jù)實(shí)驗(yàn)?zāi)康牟捎弥挥袃膳诺母髯?9個(gè)壓電陶瓷要素。每一行的要素都包括三個(gè)錐角(0，1和2度

9、)以及兩個(gè)直徑(0.5mm和1mm)。為了容許成型收縮，預(yù)加工的工件尺寸維持在50mmx50mm，以盡量減少在制模周期中的冷卻部分折斷外層纖維的可能性。圖3所示的綠色陶瓷瓶坯的制造使用這種工具配置。請(qǐng)注意，所有壓電陶瓷在成型后的完整的脫模，包括那些沒(méi)有縱向尖端不方便的脫模?？諝庵械木徛訜嵋呀?jīng)被發(fā)現(xiàn)是一個(gè)適合去除有機(jī)粘合劑的方法。最后，燒壞的粘合劑被燒結(jié)在一個(gè)理論值在97-98%的富含氧化鉛的氣體中。在燒結(jié)這些合成物型坯時(shí)沒(méi)有遇到任何控制重量減輕的問(wèn)題，甚至是那些用于高頻超聲的高尺寸精度，高表面質(zhì)量的型坯。 圖3 注射成型1-3預(yù)成型合成物 圖4 電子顯微鏡掃描pzt表面圖4說(shuō)明了表面為壓模和

12、制造壓電陶瓷和壓電陶瓷/聚合物傳感器的方法。注射成型壓電陶瓷的電相關(guān)特性區(qū)別于那些通過(guò)傳統(tǒng)的準(zhǔn)備好的粉末壓模，沒(méi)有證據(jù)證明在混合物以及成型設(shè)備中產(chǎn)生的金屬雜質(zhì)會(huì)產(chǎn)生污染影響。通過(guò)陶瓷的注射成型來(lái)制造合成物型坯，之后使用型坯來(lái)形成大批生產(chǎn)，此種方法已經(jīng)證明用于網(wǎng)狀大量制造壓電復(fù)合物傳感器。致謝 這項(xiàng)工作由海軍研究事務(wù)所的stephen e.newfield先生贊助指導(dǎo)。作者要感謝hong pham女士提供的技術(shù)援助，以及材料研究實(shí)驗(yàn)所的tomas shrout博士，賓州州立大學(xué)所做的電器測(cè)量工作。參考文獻(xiàn)1 r. e. newnham等著，復(fù)合壓電式傳感器，材料工程，第二卷，93-106頁(yè)，19

20、igures of merit for this composite can be made over 10,000 times greater than those of solid pzt ceramic by appropriately selecting the phase characteristics and composite structure.the penn state composites were fabricated l by hand-aligning extruded pzt ceramic rods in a jig and encapsulating in e

22、:1) the requirement to align and support large numbers of pzt fibers during encapsulation by the polymer.2) the high incidence of dielectric breakdown during poling arising from the significant probability of encountering one or more defective fibers in a typical large array. over the past five year

23、s several attempts have been made to simplify the assembly process for 1-3 transducers with the intention of improving manufacturing viability and lowering the material cost. early attempts involved dicing solid blocks of pzt ceramic into the desired configuration and back-filling the spaces with a

30、used in the plastics industry as a means for rapid mass production of complex shapes at low cost. its application to ceramics has been most successful for small crosssection shapes, e.g. thread guides, and large, complex shapes which do not require sintering to high density, such as turbine blade ca

31、sting inserts. more recently, the process has been investigated as a production technology for heat-engine turbine components 6,7. the injection molding process used for pzt molding is shown schematically in figure 1.by injecting a hot thermoplastic mixture of ceramic powder and organic binder into

32、a cooled mold, complex shapes can be formed with the ease and rapidity normally associated with plastics molding. precautions, such as hard-facing the metal contact surfaces, are important to minimize metallic contamination from the compounding and molding machinery. for ceramics, the binder must be

33、 removed nondestructively, necessitating high solids loading, careful control of the binder removal process, and proper fixturing. once the binder is removed, the subsequent firing, poling and epoxy encapsulation processes are similar to those used for conventional pzt/polymer composites 1. thus, th

39、, material and molding parameters must be optimized and integrated with injection molding tool design to realize intact preform ejection after molding. key parameters include: pzt/binder ratio, pzt element diameter and taper, pzt base thickness, tool surface finish, and the molded part ejection mech

40、anism design. in order to evaluate these process parameters without incurring excessive tool cost, a tool design having only two rows of 19 pzt elements each has been adopted for experimental purposes. each row contains elements having three taper angles (0, 1 and 2 degrees) and two diameters (0.5 a

41、nd l mm). to accommodate molding shrinkage, the size of the preform is maintained at 5ox50mm to minimize the possibility of shearing off the outermost fibers during the cooling portion of the molding cycle.figure 3 shows green ceramic preforms fabricated using this tool configuration. note that all
