Popis: In order to study the preparation of low-melting alloy powder in phase change materials, three sets of control experiments were set up in this paper. To explore the effects of ultrasonic oscillation, ultrasonic atomization technology and rapid cooling had an effect on the particle size, surface morphology and powder shape of ultrasonic powder making. In the experiment, ultrasonic atomization, rapidly cooling ultrasonic atomization, and ultrasonic vibration generated powder were tested. The results showed that the surface of fog droplets generated by ultrasonic atomization was smooth, with distinct particles. The powder diameter was large, ranging from 20-60 μm. The surface of the powder obtained by ultrasonic shock existed an aggregation phenomenon. The powder diameter was small ranging from 5-10 μm. The ultrasonic atomized powder obtained by rapid cooling was mostly spherical with a smooth surface. After the screening, spherical powder with a diameter of 15-25 μm and the smooth surface could be obtained. The results showed that the particle diameter is small and uniform, while the uneven surface was difficult to eliminate. The experimental conditions of rapid cooling were favorable for the smoothness of the particle surface and the roundness of powder shape. Spherical powder with a diameter of 15-25 μm can be obtained by screening the rapidly cooled powder after ultrasonic atomization. Different experimental conditions and technological approach can produce high-performance low melting point alloy powder.
