2023-06-13
Background and Overview

Bismuth oxide produces three variants due to firing at different temperatures. α-body: heavy yellow powder or monoclinic crystal, melting point 820°C, relative density 8.9, refractive index 1.91. It transforms into γ-body at 860°C. β-body: gray-black cubic crystal, relative density 8.20, it will transform into α-body at 704℃. γ-body: heavy light lemon yellow powder, belonging to tetragonal crystal system, melting point 860°C, relative density 8.55, turns yellowish brown when melted, remains yellow when cooled, melts under intense red heat, condenses into crystals after cooling lumps. All three are insoluble in water, but soluble in ethanol and strong acid. Preparation method: burn bismuth carbonate or basic bismuth nitrate until constant weight, keep the temperature at 704°C to obtain α, β-form, and keep the temperature above 820°C to obtain γ-form. Its use: as a high-purity analytical reagent, used in inorganic synthesis, red glass ingredients, pottery pigments, medicine and fireproof paper, etc.

Preparation[2]

A method for producing high-purity bismuth oxide from bismuth-containing materials. First, the bismuth-containing materials are leached with hydrochloric acid solution, so that bismuth in the bismuth-containing materials enters the solution in the form of bismuth chloride, and the leaching solution and leaching residue are separated. Then, add pure water to the leaching solution, bismuth oxychloride undergoes a hydrolysis reaction to precipitate bismuth oxychloride; then, separate the precipitated bismuth oxychloride, and add dilute alkali solution, bismuth oxychloride is converted into hydrogen under the condition of low temperature dilute alkali Bismuth oxide; then add a concentrated alkali solution to the filtered bismuth hydroxide, and convert it into bismuth oxide through high-temperature concentrated alkali; finally, the generated bismuth oxide can be washed, dried, and sieved to obtain the high-purity bismuth oxide . The invention uses bismuth-containing materials as raw materials, makes bismuth enter the solution in the form of bismuth chloride, and then hydrolyzes the bismuth into bismuth oxychloride, and undergoes low-temperature dilute alkali conversion and high-temperature concentrated alkali conversion to generate bismuth oxide. The method has simple flow, less consumption of reagents, and can deeply purify and separate impurities such as Fe, Pb, Sb, As and the like.

CN200510009684.2 discloses a bismuth oxide-coated ceramic phase-reinforced aluminum matrix composite material, which relates to a new type of composite material. The aluminum-based composite material of the present invention is composed of bismuth oxide, a ceramic phase reinforcement and an aluminum matrix, wherein the volume fraction of the ceramic phase reinforcement accounts for 5% to 50% of the total volume fraction, and the added amount of bismuth oxide accounts for 5% of the ceramic phase reinforcement. 2~20% of body weight. The cladding bismuth oxide is basically at the interface between the reinforcement and the matrix, and bismuth oxide and the matrix aluminum undergo a thermite reaction to generate low melting point metal bismuth, which is distributed at the interface between the reinforcement and the matrix. When the composite material is thermally deformed, the temperature is 270°C higher than the melting point of metal bismuth, and the low melting point metal bismuth at the interface melts and becomes liquid, which acts as a lubricant between the reinforcement and the matrix, reducing the deformation temperature and processing costs, reducing The damage of the ceramic phase reinforcement is eliminated, and the deformed composite still has excellent mechanical properties.
