摘要:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a crucible which has high viscosity at high temperature, and can be used for a long time, and can be manufactured at low cost, and a method of manufacturing the same. The composite crucible 10 is characterized in the use of mullite (3Al2O3.2SiO2) as the basic material of the crucible. The composite crucible 10 has the crucible body 11 made of mullite material whose main component is alumina and silica, and a transparent vitreous silica layer 12 formed on the inner surface of the crucible body 11. The thickness of the transparent vitreous silica layer 12 is smaller than that of the crucible body 11. The crucible body 11 can be formed by the slip casting method, and the transparent vitreous silica layer 12 can be formed by the thermal spraying method.

Provided is an apparatus for manufacturing a vitreous silica crucible which has a structure which can reduce gaps between a partition wall and electrodes inserted into through-holes formed in the partition wall while enabling electrodes to move to adjust a heating temperature of arc discharge. A plate-shaped partition wall 15 is placed above the rotating mold 10. Electrodes 13 for heating and fusing are inserted into through-holes 16 penetrating in a thickness direction, and are directed toward the rotating mold 10. A rocking unit 40 is provided on an upper side of the partition wall 15 and rocks the electrodes 13 around virtual rocking axes P, and the virtual rocking axes P pass through the through-holes 16.

During fabrication of a vitreous silica crucible, contamination of the vitreous silica crucible due to wear particles and debris of components of an apparatus for manufacturing a vitreous silica crucible is reduced by preventing damage and wear of the components of the apparatus due to silica fume. The apparatus for manufacturing a vitreous silica crucible is divided into a lower section for accommodating a mold and a mold driving system and an upper section for accommodating an arc electrode driving system, wherein a sectioning member including one or more communication paths for allowing penetration of arc electrodes, thereby the air flow is controlled so as to reduce exchange between gas in the upper section and gas in the lower section.

A method for manufacturing a quartz glass crucible has a deposition step of depositing quartz powder on an inner wall surface of a bottomed cylindrical mold, while rotating the mold, and a melting step of obtaining the quartz glass crucible by vitrifying the quartz powder deposited on the inner wall surface of the mold by heating and melting the quartz powder. In the deposition step, under a state where the quantity of electrostatic charge of the quartz powder is controlled to be within a range of 1.0 kV or below in absolute value, the quartz powder is applied to the inner wall surface of the mold, and the thickness of the quartz glass crucible is controlled by maintaining the density of the quartz powder deposition layer on the inner wall surface of the mold within a fixed range.

The method of producing a vitreous silica crucible, comprises deposition step of depositing silica powder on an inner wall surface of a cylindrical rotation mold having a bottom while rotating the mold; and a fusion step to obtain a vitreous silica crucible by heating and fusing the silica powder deposited on the inner wall surface of the mold and thereby vitrifying the silica powder. In the deposition step, a density of the deposited silica powder layer on the inner wall surface of the mold is controlled within a predetermined range by controlling the electrostatic charging voltage of the silica powder to be in a range of 1.0 kV or less in absolute value, and supplying the thus controlled silica powder to the inner wall surface of the mold. Thus, a wall thickness of the vitreous silica crucible is controlled.
