陶瓷纤维具有耐高温的优点,重量轻,良好的化学稳定性和优越的抗机械振动性能,这使得它们广泛用于航空航天,能源,冶金,建筑,个人保护和其他热保护领域。将常规陶瓷纤维的直径进一步细化到微米或纳米可以进一步提高其隔热性能并实现从脆性到柔性的转变。将传统的二维(2D)陶瓷纤维膜加工成三维(3D)陶瓷纤维气凝胶可以进一步提高孔隙率,降低堆积密度,并减少固体热传导,从而提高隔热性能,扩大应用领域。这里,展示了对新兴的2D陶瓷微纳米纤维膜和3D陶瓷微纳米纤维气凝胶的全面回顾,从介绍陶瓷纤维的隔热机理开始,其次是根据不同类型的2D陶瓷微纳米纤维膜的总结,然后概括了三维陶瓷微纳米纤维气凝胶的构建策略。最后,当前的挑战,可能的解决方案,并对陶瓷微纳米纤维材料的前景进行了全面的展望。我们期望这篇综述可以为高温隔热陶瓷微纳米纤维材料的未来发展提供一些有价值的见解。
Ceramic fibers have the advantages of high temperature resistance, light weight, favorable chemical stability and superior mechanical vibration resistance, which make them widely used in aerospace, energy, metallurgy, construction, personal protection and other thermal protection fields. Further refinement of the diameter of conventional ceramic fibers to microns or nanometers could further improve their thermal insulation performance and realize the transition from brittleness to flexibility. Processing traditional two-dimensional (2D) ceramic fiber membranes into three-dimensional (3D) ceramic fiber aerogels could further increase porosity, reduce bulk density, and reduce solid heat conduction, thereby improving thermal insulation performance and expanding application areas. Here, a comprehensive review of the newly emerging 2D ceramic micro-nanofiber membranes and 3D ceramic micro-nanofiber aerogels is demonstrated, starting from the presentation of the thermal insulation mechanism of ceramic fibers, followed by the summary of 2D ceramic micro-nanofiber membranes according to different types, and then the generalization of the construction strategies for 3D ceramic micro-nanofiber aerogels. Finally, the current challenges, possible solutions, and future prospects of ceramic micro-nanofiber materials are comprehensively discussed. We anticipate that this review could provide some valuable insights for the future development of ceramic micro-nanofiber materials for high temperature thermal insulation.
