Description

Proton conducting solid electrolyte solid-phase reference electrode hydrogen test probe
The present invention relates to the hydrogen richness in quick or METHOD FOR CONTINUOUS DETERMINATION gas phase or molten metal and the alloy.
Hydrogen solubleness reduces greatly when liquid metal or alloy graining, separates out hydrogen quality of materials is descended.Should do dehydrogenation before the particularly high-quality metal material casting handles.The industry sintering furnace, hydrogen content or vapour content also are the important technology indexs in the cylinder-drying kiln atmosphere.The detection of hydrogen richness and vapour content is very important in these production runes.
Usually the sample analysis that adopts is difficult to accomplish because of the hydrogen diffusivity is extremely strong accurately, and must the long period.
The zirconia solid electrolyte gauge head can only be measured the oxygen content of finite concentration scope, can not measure the content of hydrogen.
Reported with SrCeO recent years 3(+Yb 2O 3) the proton conductive sintered body is solid electrolyte, with the known hydrogen dividing potential drop gas hydrogen concentration cell type hydrogen sensor (referring to openly speciallyying permit flat 1-265152 backgrounds narration part day) that is the contrast electrode material.This class gauge head
Contrast electrode needs the certain hydrogen dividing potential drop of air supply system supply gas, and device is complicated, and reference gas may leak to tested systems.Therefore be difficult to practical application.
Fa Ming polarization current type hydrogen sensor is to apply potential difference (PD) between proton conducting solid electrolyte two lateral electrodes after a while, and the mensuration polarization current is obtained tested systems hydrogen richness (a day special permission openly puts down 1-265152), and this sensor will be at SrCeO 3(+Yb 2O 3) potsherd is coated with electrode, fixing cord, bonding with alumina tube then, also to keep two interpolar potential difference (PD) by potentiostat, measure electric current with reometer.
The objective of the invention is to solve the above-mentioned problem that hydrogen test probe exists of deciding, Ca and CaH at one end pack in Feng Bi the proton conductive ceramic pipe 2Potpourri makes this gauge head not need air supply system as keeping the constant contrast electrode of hydrogen dividing potential drop, and manufacture craft is simple in structure, and easy to use and reliable, improves measuring accuracy, life-saving.
Principle of the present invention is that the hydrogen concentration cell can be remembered work:
H 2(I) | S5rCeO 3(+Yb 2O 3) | H 2(II) pass of cell emf and electrode hydrogen dividing potential drop is:
-2FE=RTIn (PH 2(II)/PH 2(I)) (1) R-gas law constant, T-absolute temperature, F-faraday constant, E-balance electric gesture.The low hydrogen voltage grading electrode is anodal relatively.
Ca and CaH 2The potpourri two-phase coexistent is kept the constant hydrogen dividing potential drop.In 873-1053K temperature range, β Ca and α CaH 2The equilibrium hydrogen dividing potential drop is:
logPH 2(Torr)=-9610/T+10.227 (2)
The hydrogen richness that dissolves in the metal is corresponding one by one with metal ambient hydrogen content.For example the pass of hydrogen concentration and equilibrium hydrogen dividing potential drop is in the aluminium liquid:
Log (S/PH 2 1/2Hydrogen concentration in the 276O/T+1.356 of)=-(3) S-aluminium, cm 3/ 100gAl; PH 2-equilibrium hydrogen dividing potential drop, Torr, T-absolute temperature.
Therefore the equilibrium hydrogen dividing potential drop of measuring aluminium liquid can be tried to achieve aluminium liquid hydrogen content.
With (2), (3) formula substitution (1) formula can get the relational expression between the electromotive force E of aluminium liquid hydrogen concentration and gauge head of the present invention:
LogS=-2FE/ (4.60 6RT)-7565/T+6.47 (4) symbolic significance, unit is with (3) formula.Measure electromotive force E and temperature T by gauge head of the present invention, can directly try to achieve hydrogen concentration in the tested aluminium liquid by (4) formula.
The present invention is by proton conductive ceramic pipe (1), Ca/CaH 2Potpourri (2), plain conductor (3), alundum tube (4) becomes.Ca and CaH are equipped with in the sealing of proton conductive ceramic pipe one end in the pipe 2Potpourri and plain conductor, that end plate that plain conductor inserts porcelain tube becomes spring-like closely to contact with the inwall of pipe, and the ceramic pipe other end has sealant that contrast electrode is isolated from the outside.It is outer and insert in the ceramic pipe that alundum tube is through plain conductor.The outer coating sintering Ag/Pd thin layer of gas phase hydrogen richness gauge head, and be wound with another electrode cable.
Adopting density is that the above Ca-Ti ore type high temperature proton conductive sintered ceramic pipe of 94% theoretical value is a solid electrolyte, and composition is MC E1-xR xO 3-α(M=Sr, Ba, R=Yb, Nd, X=0.01~0.1), the end sealing of pipe.
Get the certain-length plain conductor, an end plate becomes spring-like, and it is pushed in the ceramic pipe.
Being assembled in the Ar gas glove box of gauge head of the present invention carried out.From the sealing iron flask, take out Ca, CaH 2Piece, the Ca piece is rasped to fine powder and CaH 2Mix and also insert compacting in the proton conductive ceramic pipe rapidly.With the fire-resistant quick hardening cement sealing of phosphate base.Be through on the plain conductor and insert with the external diameter alundum tube close and install in Ca/CaH and the proton conductive ceramic pipe by fire-resistant quick hardening cement sealing with proton conductive ceramic pipe internal diameter.
Prior coating sintering Ag/Pd in the proton conductive ceramic pipe outside or Pd thin layer that gas phase is decided hydrogen test probe are the mensuration electrode.All the other operations are identical with the former.After quick hardening cement solidifies, the gauge head outside around on tinsel be lead.
Plain conductor can adopt Mo among the present invention, FeCrAl, and the Pt silk is decided on tested systems character.Two electrode cable materials are not tackled electromotive force value correction metal fever electromotive force simultaneously.
When gauge head uses, gauge head and another lead and thermopair are together inserted molten metal form the hydrogen concentration cell, the balance electric gesture under the mensuration uniform temperature can be tried to achieve the hydrogen richness of tested systems.Adopt the gauge head outside that thin layer electrode is arranged when measuring gas phase hydrogen dividing potential drop and be wound with the gauge head of electrode.
To Ar+H 2Mixed gas and melting Al have made to decide hydrogen respectively and have measured.Experimental determination device such as Fig. 2.
Gas phase hydrogen dividing potential drop mensuration process and result are as follows:
Pack in the crystal reaction tube (8) gas phase hydrogen test probe and thermopair.Programmed temperature control instrument control tube type resistance furnace keeps furnace temperature constant.Behind the logical Ar gas displacement reaction air in tube, feed the Ar+H of known hydrogen dividing potential drop 2Mixed gas changes hydrogen dividing potential drop and temperature and has carried out a series of mensuration.The balance electric gesture is 10 by input impedance 9The Ω digital voltmeter is measured.Contrast electrode hydrogen dividing potential drop by (2) so formula determines tested gas phase hydrogen dividing potential drop known to the theoretical as can be known electromotive force of (1) formula.At Fig. 3 measured value and theoretical electromotive force are contrasted.Both are well consistent, prove gauge head of the present invention accurately and reliably, can be used for measuring the gas of unknown hydrogen dividing potential drop.Then try to achieve steam partial pressure the gas phase as partial pressure of oxygen in the gas phase is known from the hydrogen-oxygen equilibrium relation.
