Description
Bei der Elektrolyse des Zinkes aus den nach irgend einem Verfahren hergestellten schwefelsauren Zinklösungen zeigt sich Bildung des sogenannten Zinkschwammes, d. h. eines grauen, feinen Pulvers, das im wesentlichen1 aus Zink besteht, sich aber nur schwer schmelzen läfst, und theils wegen der losen Beschaffenheit, theils wegen der erschwerten Schmelzbarkeit die Anwendung der Elektrolyse praktisch unmöglich macht. Die Ursache dieser sowohl in neutraler als in schwach saurer Lösung auftretenden Schwammbildung ist noch nicht genau erkannt; indessen sprechen eine grofse Anzahl von Erscheinungen für die Annahme, dafs der bei der Elektrolyse des Zinkes in Spuren auftretende Zinkwasserstoff Zn H2 neben dem gleichzeitig in geringer Menge auftretenden nascenten Wasserstoff eine moleculare Veränderung des abzuscheidenden Zinkes bedinge, welche in dem schwammigen Aggregat zum Ausdruck komme.In the electrolysis of the zinc from the prepared according to any method sulfuric acid zinc solutions formation indicates the so-called zinc sponge, that is, a gray fine powder, which consists essentially 1 of zinc, but läfst difficult to melt, and partly on account of the loose condition, makes the use of electrolysis practically impossible, partly because of the difficulty in melting it. The cause of this sponge formation, which occurs in both neutral and weakly acidic solutions, has not yet been precisely identified; However, a large number of phenomena support the assumption that the zinc hydrogen Zn H 2, which appears in traces in the electrolysis of zinc, together with the nasal hydrogen which occurs at the same time in small quantities, causes a molecular change in the zinc to be deposited, which is expressed in the spongy aggregate .
Den Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung bildet nun ein Verfahren, durch welches die Zinkschwammbildung während der Elektrolyse vollständig verhindert wird. Dem Verfahren selbst liegt der Gedanke zu Grunde, den als muthmal'sliche Ursache der Schwammbildung möglichen Zinkwasserstoff (Zn H2) und den aufserdem entstehenden nascenten Wasserstoff durch Zusätze von freien Halogenen oder von Halogenverbindungen, welche unter Bildung der betreffenden Halogenwasserstoffe den Wasserstoff binden, zu beseitigen.The subject of the present invention now forms a method by which the formation of zinc sponges is completely prevented during the electrolysis. The process itself is based on the idea that hydrogen zinc (Zn H 2 ) , which is the probable cause of the formation of sponges, and the nascent hydrogen that also arises through the addition of free halogens or halogen compounds, which bind the hydrogen with the formation of the hydrogen halides in question, are based on the idea remove.
Bei der praktischen Ausführung dieser Elektrolyse des Zinkes auf Grundlage des vorliegenden neuen Verfahrens wird wie folgt operirt:In practicing this electrolysis of zinc on the basis of the present new procedure is operated as follows:
Die nach irgend einem technischen Exiractionsverfahren aus Erzen gewonnene neutrale oder schwach saure Zinkvitriollauge wird •vor der Elektrolyse versetzt:The one after some kind of technical investigation procedure neutral or weakly acidic zinc vitriol liquor obtained from ores • added before electrolysis:
a) mit'schwacher Chlor-, Brom- oder Jodlösung; ■a) with weak chlorine, bromine or iodine solution; ■
b) mit schwacher Lösung von freier unterchloriger oder unterbromiger Säure; b) with a weak solution of free hypochlorous or hypobromous acid;
oder übersättigt: : or oversaturated:
c) mit Chlor- oder Bromgas, wodurch, wie' weiter unten aus den Formeln ersichtlich, unterchlorige Säure entstehen kann; oder versetzt:c) with chlorine or bromine gas, whereby, as can be seen from the formulas below, hypochlorous acid can arise; or offset:
d) mit solchen wasserlöslichen Chlor- und Bromsubstitutionsproducten organischer Körper, welche ihr Chlor oder Brom unter Reduction zu niederen Verbindungen an nascenten Wasserstoff abgeben, wie die halogensubstituirten, wasserlöslichen Chlorhydrine des Glycerins und anderer Glykole;d) organic bodies with such water-soluble chlorine and bromine substitution products, which their chlorine or bromine with reduction to lower compounds of nascent hydrogen like the halogen-substituted, water-soluble chlorohydrins of glycerine and other glycols;
oder es werden:or it will be:
e) Zusätze aus Combinationen der unter a), b), c) und d) angeführten Körper angewendet.e) Additions from combinations of the bodies listed under a), b), c) and d) are used.
Da die Mengen des bei der Elektrolyse störend auftretenden und zu entfernenden Zinkwasserstoffes und nascenten Wasserstoffes aufseist gering sind, so braucht auch die Menge der Halogene und Halogenverbindungen, welche dem Bade zugesetzt werden, nur eine geringe zu sein, so dafs die Wirkung des freien Chlors u. s. w. auf die Kathodenmasse während des Stromdurchganges nicht in Betracht kommt. Der Nutzeffect erfährt demnach, keine Beeinträchtigung. Because the amounts of the interfering with the electrolysis and to be removed zinc hydrogen and nascent hydrogen is small, so do the quantity of halogens and halogen compounds which are needed added to the bath, so that the action of the free chlorine is negligible and so on, the cathode mass during the passage of current is out of the question. The beneficial effect is therefore not impaired.
Es ist bei diesem Verfahren nur erforderlich, dafs die zu elektrolysirende Lauge während des Betriebes stets eine deutliche Reaction des freien Halogens oder der activen Halogensauerstoffkörper zeige.In this process it is only necessary that the liquor to be electrolyzed during the During operation, there is always a clear reaction of the free halogen or the active halogen oxygen bodies show.

Aus III. ist ersichtlich, dafs zu Anfang neben den übrigen Körpern auch Zn Cl2 vorhanden, also ein Theil des eingeleiteten Chlors an Zink ge- ' bunden festgelegt ist. Dieses Chlor ist jedoch für den Procefs nicht verloren, sondern tritt wieder als freies Chlor auf bezw. freie Salzsäure, sobald die Lauge durch von der Anode her diffundirte Säure schwach schwefelsauer geworden ist. Die schwache Schwefelsäure reagirt auf Zn Cl2 nach: + Zn (H SOJ 2 + '2 HO Cl

That too. resulting HCl acts on. excess HO Cl after I. again with the formation of free chlorine, which on zinc vitriol again after III. reacts with the formation of hypochlorous acid. From III. It can be seen that at the beginning, in addition to the other bodies, Zn Cl 2 is also present, that is, a part of the chlorine introduced is bound to zinc. However, this chlorine is not lost for the process, but occurs again as free chlorine or. free hydrochloric acid as soon as the lye has become weakly sulfuric acid due to acid diffused from the anode. The weak sulfuric acid reacts to Zn Cl 2 as follows:
