Description

High-purity light lanthanum carbonate or lanthanum oxide and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of high-purity material preparation, and particularly relates to high-purity light lanthanum carbonate or lanthanum oxide and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The rare earth oxide is a key basic material for preparing high-grade new materials such as rare earth magnetic materials, luminescent materials, hydrogen storage materials, crystal materials, catalytic materials and the like. With the continuous expansion of the application field and the level of the rare earth, the quality requirement of high and new materials on rare earth oxide is higher and higher, and the mode of taking account of the physical property control of granularity, purity, morphology, specific surface and the like is changed.
Lanthanum oxide, one of the important rare earth oxides, has a strong ability to gain and lose electrons, is easy to undergo oxidation reaction or reduction reaction, and has been widely applied to catalysts, luminescent materials, permanent magnetic materials, high-performance ceramics and the like.
For many years, people have always searched for suitable process conditions for obtaining more ideal high-purity powder materials. The existing methods for producing high-purity lanthanum oxide have two main types of physical methods and chemical methods: physical methods include vacuum condensation, physical pulverization, mechanical ball milling, and the like; the chemical methods mainly include precipitation, vapor deposition, sol-gel, hydrothermal synthesis, electrochemical method, microemulsion, and polymer protection.
The prior preparation method has the following defects:
although the physical crushing method and the mechanical ball milling method have low investment, simple process and easy control, impurities are easy to be mixed in the crushing process, the product purity is low, the particle shape is unstable, and the uniformity is not good;
the solvent extraction method is adopted, the high-purity rare earth chloride solution obtained by separation and purification is prepared by ammonium bicarbonate precipitation, the chlorine radical and oil content are high, and a large amount of ammonia nitrogen wastewater is generated;
the chemical precipitation method is characterized by that it uses the salt solution (such as nitric acid, hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid aqueous solution) obtained by dissolving high-purity lanthanum oxide with acid and converting it into lanthanum as raw material, and adopts the precipitation preparation of ammonium hydrogen carbonate and urea, etc. to obtain the invented productWashing the product with water to remove nitrate radical, chloride radical or sulfate radical, filtering, stoving, calcining and crushing to prepare lanthanum oxide powder. The method is the most common method in industry, and the loose specific gravity of the prepared product is generally 1.0-1.5 g/m3. Such as US6387339, discloses the preparation of a soluble lanthanum salt by precipitation of an aqueous solution of a soluble lanthanum salt with an aqueous oxalic acid solution as a precipitant. For another example, chinese patent CN104117682A discloses a method for preparing a rare earth oxide with controllable particle size and narrow distribution, which comprises using single or mixed rare earth solution as raw material, adding into a precipitation reactor together with buffer solution, slowly adding alkali and introducing carbon dioxide gas for carbonization reaction, and controlling the pH value of the reaction system within the buffer range of the buffer solution; or firstly precipitating the rare earth solution into rare earth hydroxide by using alkali, and then introducing carbon dioxide gas for carrying out carbonization reaction; and (3) after the carbonization reaction is finished, obtaining rare earth carbonate slurry, and filtering, washing, drying and roasting the slurry to obtain rare earth oxide.
The existing precipitation methods inevitably introduce impurity ions such as chloride ions, sulfate ions and/or nitrate ions in lanthanum oxide, reduce the purity of the product, and are easy to agglomerate and difficult to filter, so that the product (lanthanum hydroxide/lanthanum carbonate) is difficult to wash and filter, and is easy to filter to cause loss; meanwhile, a large amount of ammonia nitrogen wastewater is generated, so that the standard discharge of the precipitated wastewater can increase the operation cost of enterprises.
In addition, in other common methods in the prior art, such as a vacuum condensation method, a vapor deposition method, a sol-gel method, and the like, although a high-purity material with a clean surface, a regular and controllable particle size, and a good dispersibility can be obtained, the problems of high equipment investment, complex process, and difficult process control exist, and a dispersing agent, an organic complexing agent, a polymer protective agent, and the like are often used in the preparation process to increase the raw material cost.

The invention has the following beneficial effects:
(1) the product obtained by the invention has high quality: the method of the invention prepares the nanometer high-purity light product by adopting the steps of direct hydrolysis, carbonization and the like for the micron high-purity lanthanum carbonate or lanthanum oxide, and other impurities are not introduced in the whole reaction process. In the hydrolysis and carbonization processes, trace anions brought in by the raw materials are exposed and dissolved in water due to the transformation of the crystal structure, and can be further removed by filtering and washing. During carbonization, non-rare earth cation impurities such as magnesium, calcium and the like brought in the raw materials can generate soluble bicarbonate so as to be dissolved in water. The non-rare earth impurities of the raw materials can be removed, and the products with low chlorine, low sulfur, low nitrogen, low oil and low apparent density are obtained. The rare earth compound (rare earth carbonate/rare earth oxide) with special physical properties can be widely applied to functional materials such as rare earth ceramic materials, catalytic materials, magnetic materials and the like.
As the lanthanide shrinks, the ionic radius of the lanthanide decreases, resulting in a regular gradient in the properties of the lanthanide as the atomic number increases. The electronic configuration of the outermost two layers of rare earth elements is basically similar, and the rare earth elements show typical metal properties in chemical reaction. Their metallic properties are inferior to those of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals and are more reactive than other metallic elements. The rare earth elements are arranged according to the activity of metals in 17 rare earth elements, and the metal activity of lanthanum is the strongest, so lanthanum oxide reacts to generate lanthanum hydroxide through a hydrolysis method, and other rare earth oxides cannot be prepared through hydrolysis and carbonization and only lanthanum oxide can be prepared.
In the reaction process of the scheme of the invention, the carbonization reaction formula of impurity ions of magnesium, calcium and the like is as follows:
MO+H2O+2CO2==M(HCO3)2
M(OH)2+2CO2==M(HCO3)2
wherein M is impurity ion such as magnesium and calcium capable of generating soluble bicarbonate.
(2) The product obtained by the invention has small apparent density, good particle dispersibility and narrow particle size distribution, and the addition of porous dispersed carbon dioxide can keep the reaction stable and effectively prevent agglomeration; and the carbon dioxide released in the roasting decomposition process of the lanthanum carbonate can effectively prevent the high-purity light lanthanum carbonate from agglomerating and hardening. The carbonization reaction steps of the invention have the following specific reaction equations:
La2O3+3H2O==2La(OH)3
2La(OH)3+3CO2==La2(CO3)3+3H2O;
in the carbonization process, if adopt the haplopore to concentrate and pour into carbon dioxide gas, the carbon dioxide bubble in the solution is big and not of uniform size, only bubble edge and thick liquid contact, the inside carbon dioxide gas of bubble can not take place the reaction immediately, and gas-liquid area of contact is less, has influenced the speed of carbonization reaction, and the crystal nucleus that generates in the solution is less, is favorable to the growth of crystal nucleus, obtains great crystal. Carbon dioxide gas is added in a porous dispersion mode, carbon dioxide bubbles are uniformly dispersed and mixed with the slurry, the specific surface area is large, more lanthanum hydroxide has the opportunity to react with carbon dioxide, the generation of lanthanum carbonate crystal nuclei is facilitated, and high-purity light lanthanum carbonate is obtained.
In the time of the spontaneous formation of the carbonization reaction crystal nucleus, because of no crystal nucleus, a large amount of solute precipitated is not produced on the surface of the crystal nucleus (no crystal nucleus is generated at this time, and a large amount of lanthanum hydroxide exists in the system), but appears in other places in the solution, and through the hydration with water, an amorphous state is formed to reduce the entropy value of the system, and meanwhile, the solute is adhered to the surface of undissolved lanthanum hydroxide particle solid, so that the dissolution of the lanthanum hydroxide is hindered, the contact between the lanthanum hydroxide and carbon dioxide is isolated, and the reaction rate and the effect are reduced. The micro impact force of the carbon dioxide gas can effectively solve the problem and realize the rapid and complete proceeding of the carbonization reaction.
(3) The reaction system of the invention is stable: in the process of producing high-purity lanthanum oxide by using a conventional solution system, in order to ensure the stability of the reaction system, the pH value of the whole reaction system needs to be maintained stable by controlling the reaction feeding conditions or using a buffering agent. In the invention, the pH value in the carbonization system is kept by the solubility of lanthanum hydroxide in a long period of time in the early stage of the reaction, as shown in the following formula, the pH value of the reaction system can be controlled without a feeding mode or other methods, so that the whole reaction is carried out stably, and the granularity and the distribution of precipitated particles can be effectively controlled;
Figure BDA0001826201720000071
(4) high-efficiency clean production: chemical materials (such as acid, a stabilizer, a buffering agent and the like) are not required to be added in the production process, the method belongs to an atom economic reaction, and efficient and clean production can be realized. The wastewater generated by the process disclosed by the invention is low in salt and ammonia nitrogen, can be directly discharged when meeting the environmental protection requirement, does not need to additionally increase the environmental protection treatment cost, and reduces the operation cost of enterprises; at the same time realize CO2The recycling of greenhouse gases provides technical support for low carbon and emission reduction in the rare earth industry.
