Description
The present invention relates to activated cathode and manufacture method thereof that chlorine industry and electrolysis of industrial water are used, especially low-hydrogen over-potential activated cathode and manufacture method thereof.
Activated cathode is the energy-conservation novel material that early eighties rises, and it is to reach the purpose that reduces the electrolytic bath pressure by reducing overpotential of hydrogen evolution.The negative electrode great majority of chlorine industry and electrolysis of industrial water application at present are soft steel or nickel, and its overpotential of hydrogen evolution can reach 350~400 millivolts, account for 10% of whole electrolytic bath pressure, are big major reasons of electrolyzer power consumption.Therefore, the exploitation of low-hydrogen over-potential activated cathode becomes energy-conservation main contents of chlorine industry.Activated cathode generally is the combined electrode that is made of activated coating and matrix, and the matrix great majority are soft steel or nickel.The activated cathode coating has tens of kinds at present, is broadly divided into five classes: and oxide compound of (1) nickel or sulfide (Electrochimica Acta.Vol.29,1984, p297); (2) precious metal and oxide compound thereof (J.Appl.Electrochem, Vol.17,1987, p1190); (3) porous Raney Ni(USP4354915); (4) Ni-Mo class alloy (USP4116804); (5) Ni-Mo adds transiting group metal elements (USP4240895).Precious metal and oxide compound thereof are owing to cost an arm and a leg, and Practical significance is little.Ni-Mo class alloy or Ni-Mo-magnesium-yttrium-transition metal coating have only the more of porous Raney Ni application because bonding strength is low, and the life-span is shorter.Raney Ni activated cathode majority is to adopt plasma spraying Ni-Al alloy (USP4240895) or electroplated Ni-Zn alloy (USP4104133) at present, prepares after alkali soaks Al or Zn.Because its chemical ingredients is single, and is vesicular structure, its physical strength and over-all properties are inevitable relatively poor.Chemical Industry ﹠ Metallrygy Research Office of CAS utilizes the RaneyNi activated cathode of spraying technology development to find when reality is used on the chlor-alkali groove, 0.24 volt of initial stage electrolytic bath drops, but later on annually then rise with 28% speed, loss of activity is very fast, and after finding each demoulding, groove presses and rises greatlyyer, illustrate that coating machine intensity is hanged down and causes coating shedding.In addition, the electrolyzer outage also makes groove press liter, shows that the ability of its anti-reversible circulation is relatively poor.Thereby the physical strength and the over-all properties that improve Raney Ni become the important content that activated cathode is studied.
E.Endoh etc. once adopted composite electric plating method to add Ni in Raney Ni and inhaled hydrogen compound (LaNi5) and improved the physical strength of Raney Ni and the ability (Int.J.Hydrogen of anti-reversible circulation significantly, Vol.12, No.7, PP473-479,1987), want but this processing method is multiple, price is more expensive.K.Lohrberg etc. then adopt in Raney Ni and add new element, as 10%Mo, or (1~15) %Fe, or add Mo and Ti(European Pat.009830Al(1979 simultaneously)) improve the polarization performance of Raney Ni, but do not improve the ability of its anti-reversible circulation.

Advantage of the present invention and positively effect are as follows:
(1) the present invention has improved the physical strength and the over-all properties of Raney Ni activated cathode by changing the chemical ingredients and the structure of coating.
(2) the present invention adds Mo and Co makes it to form Raney Ni-Mo-Co compound coating in Raney Ni, and this compound coating contains Raney Ni and Co
3It is long-pending that Mo intermediate phase, porous Raney Ni have very big real surface, reduced cathode current density and overpotential of hydrogen evolution effectively, but electrocatalysis anti-phase Co
3Mo has improved the ability of anti-reversible circulation, has also improved the physical strength of Raney Ni simultaneously.
(3) present, the situation of Raney Ni activated cathode industrial application on the chlor-alkali diaphram tank is: the single bath voltage of first annual descends 0.24 volt, 1 year groove flattens and all descends 0.18 volt, descended 0.11 volt in the 3rd year, three annuals descend 0.15 volt, be caustic soda economize on electricity 100 degree per ton, reducing power consumption is 5%.Its every performance index of Raney Ni-Mo-Co activated cathode of the present invention all are better than Raney Ni activated cathode.Therefore, the reducing power consumption of Raney Ni-Mo-Co activated cathode and work-ing life all can be greater than Raney Ni activated cathodes.
