Abstract

The present invention discloses homogeneous deposition process for preparing RE oxide. RE oxide precursor is first prepared through catalyzing urea with urease at 0-80 deg.c to hydrolyze and depositing RE salt solution as material homogeneously with urea as precipitant; and then treated through filtering, stoving and igniting to obtain RE oxide. The reaction may be completed at low temperature, and this can save energy source while obtain crystallized RE oxide precipitate with homogeneous granularity, compact structure, less adsorbed impurities, and easy filtering and washing.

Description

Method for preparing rare earth oxide by homogeneous precipitation method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of rare earth oxides, and particularly relates to a method for preparing rare earth oxides by a homogeneous precipitation method.
Background
The formation of the precipitate generally takes place through the formation of crystal nuclei and the growth of crystal nuclei, and when a precipitant is added to the feed solution, the ions aggregate by mutual collision to form minute crystal nuclei when the product of the concentrations of the precipitating ions exceeds the solubility product of the precipitate under the conditions. After the formation of the crystal nuclei, the crystal-forming ions in the solution are still diffusing toward the surface of the crystal nuclei and enter the crystal nuclei, so that crystals, i.e., precipitated particles, are gradually formed. In the formation of the precipitate, the rate at which the ions nucleate and further aggregate into precipitate particles is referred to as the aggregation rate. The rate at which the constituent ions align in a certain crystal lattice while being collected is called the orientation rate. The directional velocity is mainly determined by the nature of the precipitating species; the rate of aggregation is determined primarily by the conditions at which precipitation occurs, the most significant of which is the degree of supersaturation of the solution at which the precipitated material is formed. The precipitation method is generally divided into a direct precipitation method, a coprecipitation method and a homogeneous precipitation method, wherein the direct precipitation method and the coprecipitation method are both characterized in that a precipitant is added into a feed liquid to generate precipitation instantly, so that a local over-concentration phenomenon is easy to occur, and thus, precipitated particles are uneven and are seriously mixed. The homogeneous precipitation method is characterized in that certain conditions are controlled firstly, so that the added precipitant does not precipitate with the feed liquid immediately, but the precipitant is uniformly released in the whole solution firstly, and then crystal forming particles are slowly and uniformly generated from the solution through a chemical reaction, so that the precipitate is slowly and uniformly separated out in the whole solution. Compared with the former two precipitation methods, the method can avoid the phenomenon of local over-concentration, and the supersaturation degree of the structure crystal particle size is relatively uniform in the whole solution, so the obtained precipitate is a crystal form precipitate which has uniform and compact particles, less adsorbed impurities and easy filtration and washing.
Chinese patent CN1230582 adopts a homogeneous precipitation method, and combines the homogeneous precipitation method with an ultrasonic chemical method to manufacture a precursor, and has the defects that the product is easy to agglomerate, the particles are not uniform, and the product quality is influenced; the previous homogeneous precipitation method has been studied to some extent, but generally, the solution is heated to above 70 ℃, the pH value slowly increases, which is not favorable for the generation of crystal nuclei in the same environment, thereby affecting the monodispersity of the particles.
The invention utilizes the characteristic that urease can catalyze urea hydrolysis to induce homogeneous precipitation at room temperature or low temperature to prepare the precursor of the rare earth oxide, and the rare earth oxide with uniform particles and good dispersibility is prepared by controlling the concentration of reactants and a precipitator, the reaction time, the reaction temperature, the roasting temperature of the precursor and the roasting time. Its advantages are high catalytic activity and short time to generate the conditions needed by homogeneous deposition: a large amount of crystal-forming ions are generated simultaneously under the same chemical environment, the nucleation speed is far greater than the crystal nucleus growth speed, so the obtained particles are uniform, the product purity is high, the filtration is easy, the reaction can be carried out at room temperature or low temperature, and the energy is saved.
