Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of titanium metallurgy, and particularly relates to a method for preparing metal titanium by reducing titanium dioxide through molten salt electrolysis.
Background
The metal titanium has high specific strength and corrosion resistance, and is widely applied to the fields of aerospace, chemical engineering, energy, medical treatment and the like.
The titanium mineral is mainly rutile (TiO) 2 ) And ilmenite (FeTiO) 3 ). Because of the strong affinity of titanium to elements such as oxygen and carbon, extraction is very difficult. Ilmenite needs to be treated to obtain high titanium slag (the main component is titanium dioxide TiO) 2 ). The rutile or high titanium slag is converted into titanium tetrachloride TiCl through carbon adding and chlorination 4 Then rectifying to remove impurities to obtain pure TiCl 4 . Then carrying out metallothermic reduction to obtain the titanium sponge. At present, the thermal reduction method mainly includes two methods, i.e., kroll method (magnesium reduction) and Hunter method (sodium reduction). Industrially, the Kroll process is mainly used.
The Kroll method has the disadvantages of long process flow, multiple working procedures, discontinuous production and long period, and causes high cost. Thus, kroll itself has also recognized that the magnesiothermic reduction process will soon be replaced by electrolysis.
In fact, researchers are always investing a lot of manpower to research the electrolytic method. However, regardless of the electrolysis of TiO 2 、K 2 TiF 4 Or TiCl 4 Difficulties are encountered which are difficult to overcome. Or because the product has high impurity content, or because the current efficiency is low, or because the corrosion is serious, or because the equipment structure is complicated, or because the dendrite titanium is deposited and is difficult to separate from the molten salt, or because the environmental cost is high, etc., the industrial application has not been realized so far.
In 2000, the FFC method was introduced by Cambridge university. Different from the idea of the traditional electrolytic method, the medium adopted by the FFC method is calcium chloride fused salt instead of fluoride fused salt, so that the FFC method is more environment-friendly. The FFC process does not pursue the dissolution of the titanium compound in the molten salt, but rather uses the titanium dioxide compact as a cathode. The FFC method is different from the traditional electrolysis method in the working principle, titanium is not deposited from molten salt, but utilizes the characteristics of valve metal oxide (unidirectional conductivity: the titanium can not conduct electricity when being used as an anode and can conduct electricity when being used as a cathode), and the cathode is polarized, so that titanium ions in the cathode are reduced into metallic titanium in situ. During reduction, oxygen anions are separated from a cathode, enter a melt, migrate to an anode under the action of coulomb force and are oxidized into oxygen to be separated out (when a carbon anode is adopted, oxygen and carbon further react to generate CO and CO 2 ). However, the cathode titanium dioxide briquette is gradually reduced from outside to inside, and oxygen diffusion and separation are more and more difficult, so that the cathode current density is low and the overvoltage is high. To obtain titanium with low oxygen content, severe over-electrolysis is required and the current efficiency is low. And impurities such as iron, carbon and the like are easy to enter the product.
The OS process of kyoto university, japan, also employs calcium chloride electrolyte, where calcium ions are reduced to calcium on a cathode titanium mesh. The titanium dioxide is not compacted but is continuously added in the form of powder, and is reduced to titanium powder by calcium near the cathode. Compared with the FFC method, the dispersed granular cathode titanium dioxide is more favorable for the diffusion and migration of oxygen ions than the solid block. But metal calcium dissolvesDecomposed in CaCl 2 In (2), the electron conductivity of the melt is increased, resulting in a decrease in current efficiency. Furthermore, the formed metal and molten salt are mixed and difficult to separate. And the amount of molten salt used is large. Impurities such as iron and carbon are also easy to enter the product.
EMR/MSE method proposed in Japan, tiO 2 The reduction of (2) is carried out in stages. Firstly, the Ca-Ni alloy is prepared by fused salt electrolysis, and then the Ca-Ni alloy is used as a reducing agent to reduce TiO 2 Metallic titanium is generated. TiO is added in consideration of easy formation of alloy of titanium and nickel to be contaminated 2 Is arranged in a hanging basket and immersed in the fused salt to avoid direct contact with Ca-Ni alloy. The method can work in a semi-continuous way, but the metal titanium, the Ca-Ni alloy and the molten salt coexist, so that the product is difficult to separate, and the equipment and the process are complicated.
Also, a liquid metal such as bismuth, zinc, etc. is used as a cathode, and titanium dioxide is electrolyzed by molten salt to produce a Bi-Ti or Zn-Ti alloy. However, it has been reported that the obtained bismuth alloy contains only 0.6 to 2.2at% of titanium, but 17.9 to 34.9at% of calcium. When liquid zinc is used, the cathode titanium content is said to be about 20%. However, the obtained alloy needs to be treated by electrolysis or distillation to obtain titanium.
It can thus be seen that the existing processes for the electrolytic production of titanium from titanium dioxide involve various problems to a different extent which need to be overcome, so that the Kroll process has hitherto been the major industrial process. Moreover, the above processes all have very stringent purity requirements for the titanium dioxide raw material used in order to obtain acceptable metallic titanium.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a method for preparing metal titanium by taking titanium dioxide as a raw material and adopting a molten salt electrolysis method, which has the advantages of low requirement on the titanium dioxide raw material, simple process, low energy consumption, environmental friendliness and capability of directly obtaining the metal titanium with higher purity.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
a method for preparing metallic titanium by reducing titanium dioxide through molten salt electrolysis is implemented by utilizing an electrolytic cell, wherein the electrolytic cell comprises an anode chamber and a cathode chamber, an anode molten salt electrolyte is contained in the anode chamber, an anode is inserted in the anode chamber, a cathode molten salt electrolyte is contained in the cathode chamber, a cathode is inserted in the cathode chamber, and a liquid alloy is also contained at the bottom in the electrolytic cell; the anode molten salt electrolyte and the cathode molten salt electrolyte are not contacted with each other and are connected through liquid alloy;
adding titanium dioxide into the anode chamber, electrifying the electrolytic cell to operate, reducing the titanium dioxide in the anode chamber into titanium atoms at the interface of the anode molten salt electrolyte and the liquid alloy and dissolving the titanium atoms into the liquid alloy, meanwhile, oxidizing the titanium atoms in the liquid alloy into titanium ions at the interface of the liquid alloy and the cathode molten salt electrolyte, allowing the titanium ions to enter the cathode molten salt electrolyte and reducing the titanium atoms on the surface of the cathode to form a metal titanium product.
According to the method for preparing the metallic titanium by reducing the titanium dioxide through molten salt electrolysis, the anode molten salt electrolyte and the cathode molten salt electrolyte are both halide molten salts. Preferably, the anode molten salt electrolyte consists of CaCl 2 、BaCl 2 And one or more of LiCl, naCl, KCl, csCl, liF, naF and KF. The cathode molten salt electrolyte consists of LiCl, naCl, KCl and CaCl 2 、MgCl 2 With TiCl 2 And/or TiCl 3 And (4) forming. The electrolytes of the cathode chamber and the anode chamber are all halides, the components of the electrolytes are common halides, and the electrolytes have certain solubility to low-valence titanium; the cathode chamber is selected to be chloride only in consideration of the influence on the titanium impurity deposited on the cathode.
According to the method for preparing the metallic titanium by reducing the titanium dioxide through molten salt electrolysis, the anode is graphite, and the cathode is stainless steel, tungsten or molybdenum. The anode is graphite and reacts with oxygen ions in the anode molten salt electrolyte to generate CO or CO 2 (ii) a The cathode is a high-temperature-resistant conductor.
According to the method for preparing the metallic titanium by reducing the titanium dioxide through molten salt electrolysis, the liquid alloy is formed by the solute metal Ti and the melt metal. The metal activity of the melt metal is lower than that of titanium, and the melt metal and the titanium form a low-melting-point alloy, the melting point of the alloy is lower than 1000 ℃, and specifically, the alloy can be an alloy consisting of one or more of Cu, sn, sb, zn, pb, bi and Ni.
When in work, solid titanium dioxide is added into the anode chamber, the area of the cathode electrode is 1 to 20 times of that of the anode electrode, and the solid titanium dioxide is continuously added under the condition of continuous operation at 0.05 to 2.0A/cm 2 The anode current density of (2) is controlled at a temperature of 400 to 1000 ℃. CO and CO are separated out at the anode 2 Gas, cathode deposition metallic titanium product. Furthermore, in order to improve the flatness of the cathode deposited titanium, in the electrolysis process, the reverse current accounting for 1-5% of the total electrolysis time is increased, so that the dense titanium deposited by the cathode is homogenized.
During electrolysis, the titanium dioxide in the anode chamber is reduced to titanium atoms at the interface of the anode molten salt electrolyte and the liquid alloy, and the titanium atoms are contacted with the liquid metal to be dissolved. Meanwhile, oxygen ions originally combined with titanium move to the anode under the drive of an electric field, and then lose electrons and are oxidized into zero-valent oxygen, and then the oxygen ions react with the anode to generate CO and CO 2 And (4) escaping. Meanwhile, titanium atoms in the liquid alloy on one side of the cathode chamber are oxidized into titanium ions at the interface of the liquid alloy and the cathode molten salt electrolyte, the titanium ions enter the cathode molten salt electrolyte and then move to the cathode under the driving of an electric field, and the obtained electrons are reduced into titanium atoms to form a metal titanium product. In the process of reducing the titanium in the anode chamber, metal which is more active than metal titanium is difficult to enter liquid alloy; in the titanium oxidation process of the cathode chamber, metal which is more inert than metal titanium is difficult to enter a cathode molten salt electrolyte, and finally a metal titanium product with higher purity is obtained by the cathode.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
(1) The operability is strong. Titanium dioxide is added into the anode chamber, the current density in the electrolytic process is controlled, and titanium in liquid metal is supplemented in real time, so that titanium can be deposited at the cathode.
(2) The quality requirement of the raw materials is relaxed. The titanium dioxide raw material with certain impurity content can be adopted to produce the metallic titanium by electrolysis, which solves the problems of raw material purchase and production cost caused by the requirement of high-purity titanium dioxide raw material in the traditional electrolysis method.
(3) The purity of the product is ensured. Impurity ions with different electrochemical behaviors can be effectively controlled in the anode molten salt electrolyte or the liquid alloy, so that the purity of the prepared metallic titanium is high.
