Specific embodiment
Below, embodiments of the present invention are specifically described.
The additive of present embodiment is high-purity copper electrorefining additive, and it is added to and manufactures high-purity copper In the copper electrolyte of electrorefining, including:Host, is made up of nonionic surfactant, described non-ionic surfactant Agent has the hydrophobic group comprising aromatic rings and the hydrophilic group comprising polyoxyalkylenes;And stress relaxation agent, by polyvinyl alcohol or Its derivant is constituted, in addition, the manufacture method of present embodiment is the manufacture method of the high-purity copper using above-mentioned additive.
The additive of present embodiment includes host, is made up of nonionic surfactant, described non-ionic surface Activating agent has the hydrophobic group comprising aromatic rings and the hydrophilic group comprising polyoxyalkylenes.The aromatic nucleus of the hydrophobic group of this host As for phenyl or naphthyl etc., can enumerate single phenyl, naphthyl, cumyl, alkyl phenyl, styrenyl benzene base mono-phemyol, naphthyl, Cumyl, alkyl phenyl, styrenyl phenyl, distyrenated phenyl, triphenylethylene base phenyl, tribenzyl phenyl etc. Deng.The polyoxyalkylenes of the hydrophilic group of this host are, for example, polyoxyethylene groups, polyoxypropylene base etc., can also be and comprise polyoxy second Both groups of thiazolinyl and polyoxypropylene base.
The specific compound of the host included in the additive of present embodiment is, for example, polyoxyethylene list phenyl Ether, polyoxyethylene methyl phenyl ether, NONIN HS 240, polyoxyethylene lauryl base phenyl ether, polyoxyethylene naphthyl Ether, polyoxyethylene styrene base phenyl ether, the distyrenated phenyl ether of polyoxyethylene, polyoxyethylene tri-styryl base benzene Base ether, polyoxyethylene cumyl phenyl ether, polyoxypropylene list phenyl ether, polyoxypropylene methyl phenyl ether, polyoxypropylene octyl phenyl Ether, polyoxypropylene dodecylphenyl ether, polyoxypropylene naphthyl ether, polyoxypropylene styrenyl phenyl ether, polyoxypropylene two Styrenyl phenyl ether, polyoxypropylene triphenylethylene base phenyl ether, polyoxypropylene cumyl phenyl ether etc..
The additive of present embodiment is added in the copper electrolyte of copper electrolyzing refining and uses.In this copper electrolyzing refining In, the host included in the additive of present embodiment is due to having the hydrophobic group of aromatic rings and the hydrophilic of polyoxyalkylenes Base, it is thus possible to the silver ion in suppression copper electrolyte and sulphion precipitate into cathode base, can be greatly reduced cathode copper Silver concentration and sulphur concentration.Additionally, the additive of present embodiment is few with using anode mucus compared with during PEG etc..Specifically, originally The host of the additive of embodiment comprises the hydrophilic group of hydrophobic group and polyoxyalkylenes, is excessively attached to cathode base On surface, the dissolving of therefore not extra-inhibitory copper anode.Therefore, because copper anode appropriateness dissolving, anode mucus with use PEG Deng when compare few, thus the anode mucus amount being attached on the surface of the cathode copper precipitateing into cathode base reduces, and can obtain Highly purified cathode copper.
Additionally, on the surface making precipitate into cathode base by the host included in the additive of present embodiment Cathode copper becomes fine and close, and the flatness on therefore cathode copper surface improves.Therefore, the sulfur in copper electrolyte and anode mucus be difficult to attached And remain on cathode copper surface, thus they are difficult to enter cathode copper, the highly purified electrolysis few therefore, it is possible to obtain impurity Copper.
Existing surfactant used in copper electrolyte, such as PEG due to not comprising aromatic rings in hydrophobic group, Hence without this effect.On the contrary, existing PEG etc. is because strong adhesion is on copper anode surface, thus the dissolving of copper anode It is overly hindered.Therefore, the generation of anode mucus is many, and it enters the cathode copper surface of cathode base, thus existing under copper quality The problem of fall.Specifically, add PEG etc. and carry out the sulphur concentration of cathode copper and the adding using present embodiment of electrorefining Plus compare very many during agent.On the other hand, compared with the additive of present embodiment and existing PEG etc., electricity can be significantly reduced The sulphur concentration of solution copper.
