Description

Method for preparing scandium fluoride by low-temperature high-efficiency solid phase method
Technical Field

Scandium fluoride is an important raw material for producing scandium by a metallothermic reduction method in the industry at present, and the production cost of scandium and the purity of final scandium are influenced by the level of the preparation technology.
Scandium fluoride preparation technology comprises three types of wet fluorination, gas phase fluorination and solid phase fluorination. The existence of a large amount of water vapor in the wet fluorination technology easily ensures that the content of oxygen impurities in scandium fluoride is high, and the purity of subsequent scandium is reduced; although the gas phase fluorination technology has the advantages of short production flow, simple operation and the like, the HF or F 2 gas used by the gas phase fluorination technology has extremely toxic and corrosive properties, is easy to harm the health of operators, pollutes the environment and has serious damage to equipment; the ammonium bifluoride solid-phase fluorination technology is the mainstream technology for producing scandium fluoride and other rare earth fluoride at present due to the advantages of simple production flow, convenient product collection, safe operation and the like.
The current ammonium bifluoride solid-phase fluorination technology mainly comprises a two-stage temperature rising and constant-temperature process: the first stage is to keep the temperature for 2-4 hours at the high temperature of 300-350 ℃; the second stage is to perform heat preservation under vacuum condition of 500-600 deg.c for 8-10 hr [ Zhang Wenyang, huang Pei, huang Meisong, etc. the fluoridation mechanism of ammonium bifluoride and scandium oxide is studied [ J ]. Hunan non-ferrous metal 2022,38 (02): 41-43 ]. In practical production, although the fluorination technique shows a certain effectiveness in realizing the fluorination reaction, the high-temperature fluorination stage (300-350 ℃) and the total reaction time as long as 15 hours not only cause huge energy consumption and high equipment maintenance cost, but also lead to prolonged production period and severely limit the production efficiency.
