采用溶液燃烧合成和氢气还原两步法制备具有超细Y2O3弥散相的Ni-Y2O3纳米复合粉末。通过DTA-TG分析探讨燃烧机理,使用场发射扫描电镜、透射电镜和X射线衍射分析技术表征燃烧得到的粉末形貌和Ni-Y2O3纳米复合粉末的形貌和物相。详细讨论原料中硝酸镍与尿素配比对燃烧得到的粉末形貌、物相和比表面积的影响。高分辨透射形貌分析结果显示合成得到的Ni-Y2O3纳米复合粉末中均匀分布的Y2O3弥散相的尺寸在10 nm左右,并且在放电等离子烧结致密化后并未明显长大。
Ni-Y2O3 nanocomposite powder with uniform distribution of fine oxide particles in the metal matrix was successfully fabricated via solution combustion process followed by hydrogen reduction. The combustion behavior was investigated by DTA-TG analysis. The influence of urea to nickel nitrate(U/Ni) ratio on the combustion behavior and morphology evolution of the combusted powder was investigated. The morphological characteristics and phase transformation of the combusted powder and the reduced powder were characterized by FESEM, TEM and XRD. The HRTEM image of Ni-Y2O3 nanocomposite powder indicated that Y2O3 particles with average particle size of about 10 nm dispersed uniformly in the nickel matrix.
