Example 3
The embodiment provides a preparation method of carbon nanotube coated oxide dispersion strengthened steel composite powder, which comprises the following steps: the difference from example 1 is that the set temperature is lowered to 500 ℃ from 600 ℃ and the reaction time is increased from 15min to 30 min. The composite powder for preparing the CNT-assisted reinforced oxide dispersion-strengthened steel is obtained, the content of the CNT is 5 wt.%, the CNT is still uniformly coated on the surface of the powder, the number density of the CNT is reduced, the length of the CNT is increased, and the reduction of the reaction temperature influences the nucleation number of the CNT, but the increase of the reaction time can improve the growth aging of the CNT, so that the coating amount, the mass fraction and the uniformity of the CNT are not obviously reduced.
Comparative example 1
The only difference from example 1 is that the set temperature was 400 ℃ and no coated CNT was found on the surface of the powder.
Comparative example 2
The difference from example 1 is only that the set temperature is 950 ℃, the powder surface is coated with a small amount of CNT, the CNT content is 1 wt.%, but at the same time, a lot of flocculent amorphous carbon exists, the coating content and distribution uniformity of the CNT are damaged, because at such a high temperature, the pyrolysis behavior of the carbon source precursor is dramatically improved, a lot of amorphous carbon is deposited on the powder surface, and the CNT generation is inhibited.
Comparative example 3
The difference from example 1 is only that the volume ratio of the carbon source precursor to the shielding gas in the mixed gas is 1:200, and no CNT is generated on the surface of the powder, because the carbon source concentration is too low, the number of deposited carbon atoms is too small, and is lower than the solubility of the metal element in the oxide dispersion-strengthened steel powder to the carbon element, so that all the deposited carbon atoms are dissolved into the metal powder in a solid state, and no CNT can be formed.
Comparative example 4
The difference from the embodiment 1 is only that the volume ratio of the carbon source precursor to the protective gas in the mixed gas is 10:1, the surface of the powder is not coated with the CNT, but a large amount of carbon is deposited to form a carbon layer, because the carbon source precursor concentration is too high, the speed of the CNT growing through catalytic nucleation is far lower than the speed of the carbon source pyrolysis to form amorphous carbon, the surface of the powder is quickly and completely covered by the amorphous carbon, and then the CNT cannot be synthesized.
According to the results of the embodiment and the comparative example, the preparation method provided by the invention realizes the composite powder with the core-shell structure by adopting the specific raw materials and the redesigned preparation process, and has the advantages of simple process, short production flow, low cost, good industrialization prospect and the like.
