17（Cu-10Ni）-（NiFe2O4-10NiO）基金属陶瓷在铝电解过程中的相演变（英文）

采用冷压气氛烧结制备17(Cu-10Ni)-(NiFe2O4-10NiO)金属陶瓷,并作为阳极在960°C下分别进行10和40h的铝电解试验。对电解前后金属陶瓷的显微结构、物相成分进行分析检测。对电解质及阴极金属中的杂质含量进行分析,研究阳极组成中Fe、Ni和Cu元素的腐蚀行为。研究发现:在电解过程中,在材料表面形成NiFe2O4相致密层,该致密层随电解时间的延长而增厚。在NiFe2O4相致密层形成与增厚过程中,出现NiFe2O4相吞噬NiO相和金属相氧化的现象,金属陶瓷中Cu元素优先腐蚀溶解。并着重讨论NiFe2O4相致密层形成与增厚过程中金属相的腐蚀形式及NiO相向NiFe2O4相的转变机制。     

Effect of metallic phase content on mechanical properties of （85Cu- 15Ni）/（10NiO-NiFe2O4） cermet inert anode for aluminum electrolysis

（85Cu-15Ni）/（10NiO-NiFe2O4） cermets were prepared with Cu-Ni mixed powders as toughening metallic phase and 10NiO-NiFe2O4 as ceramic matrix. The phase composition, microstructure of composite and the effect of metallic phase content on bending strength, hardness, fracture toughness and thermal shock resistance were studied. X-ray diffraction analysis indicates the coexistence of （Cu-Ni）, NiO and NiFe2O4 phases in the cermets. Within the content range of metallic phase from 0% to 20% （mass fraction）, the maximal bending strength （176.4 MPa） and the minimal porosity （3.9%） of composite appear at the metallic phase content of 5%. The fracture toughness increases and Vickers＇ hardness decreases with increasing metal content. When the thermal shock temperature difference （At） is below 200 ℃, the loss rate of residual strength for 10NiO-NiFe2O4 ceramic is only 8%, but about 40% for （85Cu-15Ni）/（10NiO-NiFe2O4）cermets. As At is above 200 ℃, the residual strength sharply decreases for sample CN0 and falls slowly for samples CN5-CN20.     

铝电解用NiFe2O4-Cu金属陶瓷惰性阳极的制备

以高温固相合成法合成的NiFe2O4陶瓷粉体和金属Cu粉为原料, 采用冷压-烧结法制备了Cu含量在5%～20%之间的NiFe2O4-Cu金属陶瓷惰性阳极, 研究了烧结气氛和烧结温度对其物相组成、微观形貌和基本物理性能的影响. 结果表明 通过控制烧结气氛中氧分压在NiO和Cu2O的离解反应平衡氧分压之间, 可以制备出具有目标物相组成的NiFe2O4-Cu金属陶瓷; 烧结温度和保温时间对所得NiFe2O4-Cu金属陶瓷的相对密度有较大影响; NiFe2O4和Cu之间的不润湿性限制了NiFe2O4-Cu金属陶瓷烧结温度的提高和保温时间的延长, 在保证金属相分布均匀且不溢出的前提下, 所制备的NiFe2O4-Cu金属陶瓷的相对密度较小; 金属相Cu含量越高, NiFe2O4-Cu金属陶瓷最高烧结温度越低、最长保温时间越短, 从而相对密度越低、孔隙率越高; 除了尽量降低金属相含量外, 还可向NiFe2O4-Cu金属陶瓷中添加其他金属如Ni和Co等, 以改善陶瓷相与金属相之间的润湿性, 以提高烧结温度, 进而提高其相对密度和耐腐蚀性能.

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 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.

Electrocatalysis of carbon anode in aluminium electrolysis

The anodic overvoltage of the carbon anode in aluminum electrolysis is of the order of 0.6 V at normal currem densities. However, it can be reduced somewhat by doping the anode carbon with various inorganic compounds. A new apparatus was designed to improve the precision of overvoltage measurements. Anodes were doped with MgAl2O4 and AlF3both by impregnation of the coke and by adding powder, and the measured overvoltage was compared with that of undoped samples. For prebake type anodes baked at around 1150℃, the anodic overvoltage was reduced by 40-60 mV,and for Soderberg type anodes, baked at 950 ℃, by 60-80 mV.
