Description

Cathode block coated with titanium boride metal-ceramic composite material and preparation method thereof
Technical field:
The present invention relates to a kind of aluminium electrolytic industry cathode material and preparation method thereof.Be particularly related to the preparation method of the cathode block coated with titanium boride metal-ceramic composite material of aluminium electrolyzer.
Background technology:
Fused salt electrolysis legal system aluminium is unique industry system aluminium method of system aluminium in the worldwide, and aluminium electrolytic cell cathode uses carbon materials, has three kinds at present: conventional cathode carbon piece, schungite cathode block and high graphite carbon piece.Aluminium electrolytic cell cathode is that carbon piece of being built by laying bricks or stones by bottom land and the about 20 centimetres of aluminium liquid that cover in the above constitute.The groove breakage mainly is the breakage of cathode block, and the life-span of groove was generally 4 years, and under disadvantageous situation, this time limit also can shorten.A large amount of research and production practice confirm, the damage of carbon materials is because the immersion of sodium, ionogen and the metal aluminium liquid that occurs during electrolysis makes due to the carbon piece dilatational strain.When aluminium was produced, the aluminum oxide of the adding bottom land of being everlasting generated precipitation, causes the bottom land minor insulation when serious.Because carbon cathode is poor by the aluminium wettability, this has not only aggravated the sedimentary forming process of groove, also can make cryolite melts immerse the carbon piece, makes it to expand; Leak out to cathode steel bar and cause iron-holder rising in the aluminium, the situation continued deterioration just forces and stops groove.In addition, contact with the effective of cathode block, must keep quite high aluminium liquid layer in the groove in order to guarantee molten aluminum.The subregion insulation of bottom land and the problem that the higher aluminum liquid layer brings are: electromagnetic force causes motion of aluminium liquid layer and constantly fluctuation, and for fear of aluminium and anode in short circuit, everything will make current efficiency reduce and power consumption increases.Titanium boride is that unique solubleness is very little in aluminium liquid, electric conductivity is high and can be the wetting material of aluminium.Wettability well just can directly deposit skim aluminium liquid on the cathode block surface, improve electric conductivity and corrosion resistance nature.The method that applies titanium boride at present on the aluminium cell carbon cathode is to use the vibratory compaction method, at carbon block base body last layer titanium boride-carbon composite layer.Because titanium boride-carbon composite layer contains 70% pitch, coke and Resin adhesive, easily corroded and early failure in actual use by sodium and aluminium.Document MA (metal digest) (digest number: 199907-42-0602), (digest number: (digest number: EIP98054192445 has introduced Germany scientist and successfully with plasma spraying method powders of titanium boride has been sprayed on the carbon cathode in a vacuum EI (engineering index), and test result shows that coating performance is good for EIP98054192446 and EI (engineering index).Caused the very big concern of Aluminum circle.But this method is owing to adopt vacuum plasma equipment, cost height.
Summary of the invention:
Purpose of the present invention mainly is to solve in a vacuum with plasma spraying method powders of titanium boride to be sprayed on the high problem of cost on the carbon cathode, develop under normal atmosphere atmosphere method on the carbon cathode that powders of titanium boride is sprayed on, reduced cost with the plasma spraying carbon material; Use the special-purpose titanium boride metal-ceramic composite material powder of plasma spraying under the suitable normal atmosphere atmosphere of developing simultaneously, the cathode block coated with titanium boride metal-ceramic composite material made from this powder has that resistance aluminium rate is low, Heat stability is good, electrolyte-resistant etch, to characteristic such as the wettability of aluminium liquid is good.
A kind of cathode block coated with titanium boride metal-ceramic composite material, on conventional cathode carbon piece, schungite cathode block and the high graphite cathode carbon piece with normal atmosphere atmosphere under plasma spraying method prepare coated with titanium boride metal-ceramic composite material, this layer and carbon block base body are closely linked, coated with titanium boride metal-ceramic composite material is characterized in that as the working face of electrolyzer the titanium boride metal-ceramic composite material power formulations weight percent composition for preparing coated with titanium boride metal-ceramic composite material is:
