Description

A kind of ilmenite direct-reduction produces the method for Ti-Fe alloy
Technical field
The invention belongs to Non-ferrous Metallurgy field, particularly the hot prereduction of a kind of carbon combines with ionic liquid electrolytic reduction and directly prepares the method for Ti-Fe alloy from ilmenite.
Background technology
One of the important raw and processed materials in smelting iron and steel is not only by ferro-titanium, or the hydrogen storage material of important magneticsubstance and most exploitation potential quality, there is industrial use widely.Using ferro-titanium during as made steel, not only can improve the mechanical property of steel, its crystal structure can also be improved.
Current production ferro-titanium mainly adopts metallothermics (thermit reduction) and remelting process.Wherein thermit reduction is mixed by a certain percentage respectively concentrated ilmenite powder and aluminium powder, ferrosilicon, then id reaction heat is relied on to carry out redox and obtain ferro-titanium with the initiation reaction of magnesium powder, but it is higher to there is oxygen level, the defects such as impurity is many, make the application of ferro-titanium be restricted.Remelting process is with useless titanium material for main raw material adds iron remelting, and the remelting of general employing induction furnace, also useful electrode arc stove is smelted or in the electric furnace of logical shielding gas, used radiant heat melting.Adopt remelting process to prepare ferro-titanium and can effectively control oxygen level in alloy, but its raw material sources are limited, energy dissipation is comparatively large, and cost is high, is difficult to meet the need of market.Therefore, be necessary that research flow process is short, cost is low and environment amenable preparation method, and ferro-titanium can be applied in more field.
For seeking new low cost titanium iron alloy preparation technology, all do a large amount of research work both at home and abroad.The novel process of research has fused salt electrolysis process etc.The method is first by TiO 2and Fe 2o 3the negative electrode of mixed sintering, then adopts CaCl 2high-temperature molten salt system is as ionogen, and direct at 800 ~ 1000 DEG C is ferro-titanium by its electrolytic reduction.Because this method is directly from TiO 2and Fe 2o 3mixture electrolysis obtains ferro-titanium, greatly simplifies technical process and equipment.But up to the present the method just succeeds in laboratory, realize scale operation, first will solve TiO 2and Fe 2o 3the preparation of mixing negative electrode and the bad problem of electroconductibility, it is secondary realizes the airtight of electrolyzer and atmosphere protection, then also must to overcome in electrolytic process titanium ion variation of valence to the impact of current efficiency.To overcome the above problems simultaneously, also have very large difficulty in practice.And fused salt electrolysis will be carried out at the temperature of 800 DEG C, need to consume certain energy and etching apparatus.Therefore, in the urgent need to developing, a kind of technique is simple, energy-conservation, the titanium new preparation technology of low cost, and the appearance of ionic liquid is undoubtedly for herein is provided new possibility.
Ionic liquid is the abbreviation of ionic liquid at room temperature, is a kind of composition anions and canons, at the organic salt that room temperature or near room temperature are in a liquid state.It has that electrochemical window is wide, good conductivity, liquid state range are wide, without the excellent properties such as vapour pressure, good stability, be a kind of green solvent.In galvanic deposit, ionic liquid has merged the advantage of high-temperature molten salt and the aqueous solution: have wider electrochemical window and good electroconductibility, at room temperature can obtain in high-temperature molten salt could the metal that goes out of galvanic deposit and alloy, but the severe corrosive not having high-temperature molten salt such; Simultaneously, in ionic liquid, go back electrodepositable obtain most of metal that can obtain in aqueous, and without side reaction, the metal quality thus obtained is better, current efficiency is higher, particularly to aluminium, titanium, silicon and germanium etc. be difficult in aqueous the metal that obtains of galvanic deposit and alloy all the more so.The above-mentioned characteristic of ionic liquid and good specific conductivity thereof make it the brand-new liquid becoming galvanic deposit research, are more and more applied in electrodeposit metals.
