Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below. While exemplary embodiments of the invention are described hereinafter, it should be understood that the invention may be embodied in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.
As mentioned above, the non-stick coating included in the non-stick cookware of the prior art has more or less certain functional drawbacks, and the present invention therefore proposes a composite material for non-stick coating with more optimal performance.
In the embodiments of the present invention, in order to solve the problems of low hardness, poor abrasion resistance, poor scratch resistance, etc. of the fluororesin in the field of the composite material for non-stick cookware, the composite material including the perovskite material and the ductile metal material is innovatively used to prepare the non-stick cookware, thereby improving the non-stick effect, abrasion resistance, and scratch resistance of the non-stick cookware while improving the toughness of the composite material.
In embodiments of the present invention, the composite material for non-stick cookware may include a perovskite material and a ductile metal material. In particular, the composite material for non-stick cookware may include 50wt% to 80wt% perovskite material and 20wt% to 50wt% ductile metallic material based on the total weight of the composite material.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the perovskite material may be represented by ABO 3, a may include at least one of alkaline earth metals, and B may include at least one of transition metals. In an embodiment, a is Ca and B is Ti. Perovskite materials (in particular, perovskite titanate ceramic materials) have particular properties. Specifically, the perovskite material may have a typical ABX 3 crystal structure. As a representative of perovskite materials, the perovskite 113 may have a large number of oxygen vacancies and crystal defects in the structure. In the ABX 3 crystal structure of the perovskite material, the A site can be Ca metal cations, the B site can be Ti metal cations, and when the perovskite material is heated, the metal cations at the A site and the B site can be displaced to cause lattice distortion, so that the symmetry and the order of the crystal structure are reduced, the surface energy is reduced, and a certain non-sticking effect is shown. In detail, as the most typical representative of perovskite materials, calcium titanate is currently commonly used in the photovoltaic industry, and has excellent photoelectric conversion efficiency. Calcium titanate belongs to a cubic crystal system, and calcium titanate often changes phase among cubic, tetragonal and orthorhombic crystal systems because calcium titanate crystals are easily distorted due to rotation of TiO 6 or displacement of cations, so that symmetry of a crystal structure is reduced. During lattice distortion of calcium titanate, the order of the material crystal structure is reduced, and the surface free energy is reduced, so that calcium titanate may exhibit a certain non-tackiness, and the magnitude of the non-tackiness may be related to the degree of lattice distortion of calcium titanate. Thus, perovskite materials may be used as composite materials for non-stick cookware. The perovskite material and the ductile metal material are mixed to prepare the composite material, so that the problem of insufficient toughness of the perovskite material can be further overcome, and the non-tackiness of the composite material is further increased.
In embodiments of the present invention, the weight of the perovskite material may be 50wt% to 80wt% based on the total weight of the composite material. Here, it is mainly considered that when the weight of the perovskite material is less than 50wt%, the non-sticking effect of the non-sticking coating layer made of the composite material including the perovskite material is not remarkable, and when the weight of the perovskite material is more than 80wt%, the non-sticking coating layer made of the composite material including the perovskite material is too brittle, and problems such as chipping of the non-sticking coating layer due to accumulation of thermal stress easily occur during the spraying process. Specifically, in embodiments of the present invention, the weight of the perovskite material may be 50wt% to 75wt%, 55wt% to 80wt%, 60wt% to 80wt%, 70wt% to 80wt%, 60wt% to 75wt%, 62wt% to 75wt%, 65wt% to 78wt%, 70wt% to 75wt%, etc., based on the total weight of the composite material. Specifically, the weight of the perovskite material may be 50wt%、51wt%、52wt%、53wt%、54wt%、55wt%、56wt%、57wt%、58wt%、59wt%、60wt%、61wt%、62wt%、63wt%、64wt%、65wt%、66wt%、67wt%、68wt%、69wt%、70wt%、71wt%、72wt%、73wt%、74wt%、75wt%、76wt%、77wt%、78wt%、79wt%、80wt% or the like based on the total weight of the composite material.
In embodiments of the present invention, the weight of the ductile metallic material may be 20wt% to 50wt%, based on the total weight of the composite. Here, it is mainly considered that when the weight of the ductile metallic material is less than 20wt%, the non-stick coating layer made of the composite material including the ductile metallic material is too brittle, and when the weight of the ductile metallic material is more than 50wt%, the non-stick effect of the non-stick coating layer made of the composite material including the ductile metallic material is not significant. Specifically, in embodiments of the present invention, the weight of the ductile metallic material may be 20wt% to 45wt%, 25wt% to 50wt%, 30wt% to 50wt%, 40wt% to 50wt%, 30wt% to 45wt%, 32wt% to 45wt%, 35wt% to 48wt%, 40wt% to 45wt%, etc., based on the total weight of the composite material. Specifically, the weight of the ductile metallic material may be 20wt%、21wt%、22wt%、23wt%、24wt%、25wt%、26wt%、27wt%、28wt%、29wt%、30wt%、31wt%、32wt%、33wt%、34wt%、35wt%、36wt%、37wt%、38wt%、39wt%、40wt%、41wt%、42wt%、43wt%、44wt%、45wt%、46wt%、47wt%、48wt%、49wt%、50wt% or the like based on the total weight of the composite.

A non-stick cookware comprising the above composite material will be described in detail below in connection with fig. 1.

As shown in fig. 1, the non-stick cookware 100 includes a base 120 and a non-stick coating 140 on the surface of the base.
The substrate 120 may be a body of non-stick cookware, for example, when the non-stick cookware is a pot, the substrate may be a pot. The substrate 120 may be made of any suitable material commonly used in the art. The substrate 120 may include an inner surface that carries the article and an outer surface that faces away from the inner surface.

A method of manufacturing a non-stick cooker according to an embodiment of the invention will be described in detail with reference to fig. 2.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a method of manufacturing a non-stick cookware according to an embodiment of the invention.
Referring to fig. 2, a method of manufacturing a non-stick cookware according to an embodiment of the present invention includes preparing a composite material (step S310), spraying the composite material on a substrate of the non-stick cookware using plasma spraying (step S320), and sanding the non-stick coating (step S330).
In step S310, a step of grinding the perovskite material and the ductile metal material is first performed. The perovskite material and the ductile metal material are subjected to a grinding treatment to obtain perovskite material powder having an average particle size of 10 μm to 100 μm and ductile metal powder having an average particle size of 10 μm to 100 μm. The grinding treatment method can be any existing technology, and the invention is not limited to this. Alternatively, perovskite material powders having an average particle size of 10 μm to 100 μm and ductile metal powders having an average particle size of 10 μm to 100 μm may be directly purchased in a commercial manner. Then, the perovskite material powder and the ductile metal powder are uniformly mixed in a mass ratio of 4:1 to 1:1 to obtain a composite material.
In step S320, a spraying step is performed. Specifically, the composite material is preheated firstly to improve the fluidity of the composite material powder and prevent the problems of gun blockage and the like in the spraying step. And then, spraying the preheated composite material on a substrate of the non-stick cooker by using a plasma spraying process to form a non-stick coating. In the plasma spraying step, plasma spraying may be performed in such a manner that the flow rate of the main gas (specifically, argon gas) is 1500L/H to 2000L/H, the flow rate of the hydrogen gas is 80L/H to 120L/H, the voltage is 40V to 60V, the current is 450A to 550A, the rate of feeding the composite material is 30g/min to 70g/min, the straight hole of the straight hole gun nozzle is 3mm to 7mm (preferably, 5 mm), and the distance of the gun nozzle from the base body of the non-sticking cooker is 80mm to 130mm. By the above steps, a non-stick cooker having a non-stick coating layer with a thickness of 20 μm to 100 μm can be prepared.
In step S330, sanding processing is performed. The sanding treatment method can adopt any existing technology, and the invention is not limited to the method.
The composite material is coated on the surface of the non-stick pan, so that the finally formed non-stick pan has improved non-stick property, and the effects of stable material, high hardness, high temperature resistance, long non-stick life and the like are achieved.
