Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of scandium oxide preparation, in particular to a method for preparing ultra-high purity scandium oxide with low cost.
Background
Scandium is an important rare earth element, is the best aluminum alloy grain refiner, and has unique properties, so that scandium materials represented by aluminum scandium alloy have irreplaceable effects in the fields of aerospace, aviation, national defense, new energy, new generation information technology and the like, and scandium is listed as a key mineral resource in the United states, japan, australia and other countries. Currently, 4N scandium oxide in the international market is expensive, up to $4600 per kilogram. With the popularization of 5G, high-power communication modules and base stations expand, and high-frequency high-power devices and modules gradually go on the stage of application; in addition, scandium is widely applied to ohmic contact electrodes, schottky contact electrodes, phase change storage media and the Internet of third-generation semiconductor power electronic chips, so that the demand for high-purity scandium is increasing.
At present, the preparation of the ultra-high purity scandium oxide is generally carried out by adopting extractants such as P350, TBP and the like or corresponding extraction resin thereof, and other extractants such as P204, P507, cyanex272 and the like are also adopted. The scandium oxide prepared by the extractant in the prior art has a series of problems of high cost, low safety, high equipment requirement, complex process, difficult back extraction and the like. Specifically, for example:
1) The main problems of the preparation of high-purity scandium oxide by using P350 are that the cost of the P350 is high, and the P350 extractant has a great danger in the preparation process and the process is complex.
2) In the process of preparing high-purity scandium oxide by adopting TBP, higher acidity is required, and mineral acid is easy to volatilize under the condition of higher acidity. In addition, the solubility of TBP in the solution is higher, the corrosion capacity of TBP extractant to the extraction tank is higher, and the requirements on the material of the extraction tank are higher, thus the preparation cost is increased in an intangible way. In practical applications, TBPs are used less often.
3) When other extractant such as P204 or P507 is adopted to prepare high-purity scandium oxide, the back extraction is difficult, the back extraction by alkali is needed, the phase separation is difficult, and the secondary introduction of impurities is extremely easy. When the Cyanex272 is loaded with scandium, the method is easy to realize in the back extraction process, but has no selective characteristic, other impurities in extracted scandium cannot be removed, and the method can be used for preliminary enrichment of scandium, but cannot be used for preparing high-purity scandium oxide.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the embodiments of the present invention, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments.
