Electrical resistivity of NiFe_2O_4 ceramic and NiFe_2O_4 based cermets

NiFe2O4 ceramic and NiFe2O4 based cermets, expected to be used as the inert anodes in aluminum electrolysis, were prepared and their electrical resistivities were measured at different temperatures. The effects of temperature and composition on their electrical resistivities were investigated. The results indicate that the electrical resistivities of NiFe2O4 based cermets mainly depend on temperature, resistivity of ceramic matrix, composition and dispersion of the metal phase among ceramic matrix. The electrical resistivity of NiFe2O4 ceramic decreases from 10. 094 Ω · cm to 0. 475 Ω · em with increasing temperature from 573 K to 1 233 K. The electrical resistivities of NiFe2O4 based cermets are greatly lowered, but decrease with increasing the temperature with similar trend compared to that of NiFe2O4 ceramic. The resistivities of NiFe2O4 based cermets containing 5 % Ni, 5 % Cu and 5 % CuNi alloy are 0. 046 8, 0.066 8 and 0. 0532 Ω · cm at 1 233 K, respectively, which are all acceptable as inert anode materials compared to that of the current carbon anode used for aluminum electrolysis.     

铝电解用NiFe2O4-10NiO基金属陶瓷惰性阳极的耐腐蚀性能

制备铝电解用NiFe2O4-10NiO基金属陶瓷惰性阳极,并在实验室电解槽中考察其电解腐蚀性能。结果表明,电解过程中虽然惰性阳极在960°C熔盐电解质中表现出优异的耐腐蚀性能,但采用XRD、SEM/EDX和金相分析其物相组成和微观结构后发现,电解后阳极中的金属相发生了优先腐蚀,在阳极表面产生大量孔洞。NiFe2O4相中的 Fe 元素的优先溶解可能导致 NiFe2O4晶粒的不均匀腐蚀。溶解在电解液中的 Al2O3与阳极中的 NiO 或FeO 发生反应生成的 NiFe2O4-NiAl2O4-FeAl2O4相对 NiO 相的吞并以及体积膨胀,阳极表面形成致密的NiFe2O4-NiAl2O4-FeAl2O4保护层。因此,致密的NiFe2O4-NiAl2O4-FeAl2O4保护层可以阻挡阳极表面金属相的损失和陶瓷相的腐蚀。

Effect of adding methods of metallic phase on microstructure and thermal shock resistance of Ni/（90NiFe2O4-10NiO） cermets

Ball mixing and electroless plating were respectively used as the adding methods of metallic phase to prepare Ni/（90NiFe2O4-10NiO） cermets for the inert anode in aluminum electrolysis. The microstructure and thermal shock resistance of cermet samples were studied. The results show that, for the samples prepared by ball mixing method, aggregation of metallic phase is found in either the green blocks or sintered samples and the extent of aggregation increases with the increase of metal content. For 6.5Ni/（90NiFe2O4-10NiO） cermets prepared with electroless plating method, the homogeneous and fine metallic particles are found in either the green compacts or sintered samples, but the relative density and thermal shock residual strength decrease by 3% and 28%-58% respectively, compared with samples prepared with ball mixing method.     

Effect of NiO content on corrosion behaviour of Ni-xNiO-NiFe2O4 cermets in Na3AlF6-Al2O3 melts

5Ni-xNiO-NiFe2O4 cermets with different NiO contents were prepared and the corrosion behaviour in Na3AlF6-Al2O3 melts was investigated in laboratory electrolysis tests. The results indicate that adding NiO is unfavorable to the densifieation of NiFe2O4-xNiO ceramics, while small Ni doping can greatly improve the sintering property. The electrolysis tests show that excess NiO is beneficial to the reduction of Fe while has little effects on that of Ni in the bath; the steady-state concentrations of Ni, Fe are below the corresponding solubilities of NiFe2O4-xNiO, implying that corrosion mechanism changes while electrifying. Post-electrolysis examination of anodes shows that Ni metal leaches at the anode surface, yet the substrate ceramic prevents the penetration of bath and the further loss of metal phase.     

铝电解惰性阳极用Ni-Zn铁氧体的固态合成

采用固态合成法分别在惰性气氛和空气下，制备不同成分的Ni(l-x)ZnxFe2O4铁氧体尖晶石。对反应产物的物相、粒度和形貌的检测表明：在Ar气保护下煅烧主要发生氧化物的离解反应，反应物无法得到目标物相；采用反应烧结法制备铝电解金属陶瓷惰性阳极时，须保持一定的氧分压，以避免金属氧化物的离解和金属相的氧化；在空气中，通过固态反应可制备出理想的铝电解惰性阳极用Ni(l-x)ZnxFe2O4尖晶石，其粒度细，且符合标准正态分布，烧结温度低，在1150℃下保温6h即实现完全反应。

EFFECT OF Cu-Ni CONTENT ON THE CORROSION RESISTANCE OF （Cu-Ni）/（10NiO-90NiFe204） CERMET INERT ANODE FOR ALUMINUM ELECTROLYSIS

（Cu-Ni）/（10NiO-90NiFe204） cermet inert anodes containing metal Cu-Ni0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 wt pct were prepared and their corrosion resistance to Na3AlF6-Al2O3 melts was investigated. The results indicate that the content of metal Cu-Ni has little effect on the steady-state concentration of Ni in the electrolyte and the values could not be used to effectively differentiate their corrosion resistance. The steady-state concentration of Fe decreases from 304×10^-6 to 168×10^-6 and that of Cu increases from 21×10^-6 to 71×10^-6 with the content of metal Cu-Ni increasing from 0 to 20 wt pct. Post-examination shows that metallic phase Cu-Ni is corroded preferentially during electrolysis and many pores are left at the anode surface. Considering the corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity, the cermet containing metal Cu-Ni 5 wt pct should be selected and studied further.     

EFFECT OF Cu-Ni CONTENT ON THE CORROSION RESISTANCE OF (Cu-Ni)/(10NiO-90NiFe2O4) CERMET INERT ANODE FOR ALUMINUM ELECTROLYSIS

(Cu-Ni)/(10NiO-9ONiFe2O4 ) cermet inert anodes containing metal Cu-Ni 0,5, 10, 15 and 20 wt pet were prepared and their corrosion resistance to Na3AlF6-Al2O3 melts was investigated. The results indicate that the content of metal Cu-Ni has little effect on the steady-state concentration of Ni in the electrolyte and the values could not be used to effectively differentiate their corrosion resistance. The steady-state concentration of Fe decreases from 304×10-8 to 168×10-6 and that of Cu increases from 21×10-6 to 71×10-6 with the content of metal Cu-Ni increasing from 0 to 20 wt pct. Post-examination shows that metallic phase Cu-Ni is corroded preferentially during electrolysis and many pores are left at the anode surface. Considering the corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity, the cermet containing metal Cu-Ni 5 wt pct should be selected and studied further.     

Effect of additive on corrosion resistance of NiFe2O4 ceramics as inert anodes

In order to improve the corrosion resistance of NiFe2O4 ceramics as inert anode, additive V2O5 was added to raw materials NiO and Fe2O3. The inert anodes of nickel-ferrite ceramics were prepared by powder metaUurgic method and the static corrosion rate in Na3AlF6-Al2O3 was determined by mass loss measurement. The effect of V2O5 on sintering property and corrosion resistance was studied. The results show that V2O5 can promote the grain to develop completely and improve sintering property. EDS results show the reaction product Ni2FeVO6 distributes along the grain boundary. The corrosion tests show that V2O5 is beneficial to improving corrosion resistance remarkably. The reasons that V2O5 can improve the corrosion resistance must be V2O5 promoting the gains to develop completely and Ni2FeVO6 distributes along the grain boundary. The stable structure can control the chemical dissolution of ceramics anode and the reinforced grain boundary can control the grain-boundary corrosion rate.

Effect of Ni content on corrosion behavior of Ni/（10NiO-90NiFe2O4） cermet inert anode

Ni/（10NiO-90NiFe2O4） cermet inert anodes with metal Ni content of 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 （mass fraction, %） were prepared and their corrosion behavior in Na3AlF6-Al2O3 melts was investigated in laboratory electrolysis tests. The results indicate that the content of metal Ni in anodes has little effect on the steady-state concentration of impurities Ni and Fe in electrolyte and the values range in （114-173）×10^-6 and （287-385）×10^-6, but the content of impurities in the metal aluminum manifolds. There is preferential corrosion for metal Ni in NiO-NiFe2O4 based cermet anodes. Considering the corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity, the cermet containing 5%Ni （mass fraction） behaves best among NiO-NiFe2O4 based cermet anodes studied, and should be further studied.
