Mirror polishing of the niobium material is performed to prevent high frequency absorption on the surface of the niobium material and suppress energy loss, for example, when the material is used in an accelerating cavity resonator by utilizing its superconductivity. Mirror polishing of niobium materials like this is carried out by electrolytic polishing, the same as mirror polishing of other metal materials, and the electrolytic polishing solution traditionally used is a mixture of concentrated sulfuric acid, hydrofluoric acid, and water. ing.

However, when attempting to prepare the above-mentioned conventional electrolytic polishing solution, the temperature of the solution increases significantly due to the heat of dilution of sulfuric acid caused by the water in the hydrofluoric acid when it is mixed with hydrofluoric acid.
This will cause intense evaporation of HF (hydrogen fluoride).
As a result, the HF concentration in the prepared electrolytic polishing solution decreases, and the evaporated HF contaminates the workplace. In the electrolytic polishing solution, HF has the effect of dissolving and removing the oxide film formed on the surface of the niobium material due to the oxidizing action of sulfuric acid. Therefore, a decrease in the HF concentration directly affects the performance of the electrolytic polishing solution. It will cause deterioration. Furthermore, since HF is extremely harmful to the human body, HF contamination is a serious problem that cannot be ignored from the perspective of preventing industrial accidents.

One way to avoid the above problem is to
It is possible to prevent HF vapor from escaping to the outside by immediately sealing the mixing container after adding and blending fluoric acid. However, if the container is sealed immediately after blending the hydrofluoric acid, the internal pressure of the container will rise significantly due to the heat of dilution because there is a difference in thermal expansion between the container, the electrolytic polishing liquid in the container, and the air in the container. As a result, there is a risk of damage to the mixing container, which is usually made of plastic, so this method cannot be adopted in practice.

Another method to avoid the problem caused by evaporation of HF is to cool the sulfuric acid and hydrofluoric acid to be mixed in advance to maintain the temperature of the electrolytic polishing solution below room temperature immediately after mixing, and to release the container. A method can be considered to prevent HF from evaporating too much even under such conditions. However, for example, for 85 parts by volume of concentrated sulfuric acid,
When blending 10 parts by volume of 40% hydrofluoric acid, it is necessary to cool the concentrated sulfuric acid and hydrofluoric acid to around -30°C in order to maintain the temperature of the electrolytic polishing solution below room temperature immediately after blending. . In reality, it is impossible to adopt this method because sulfuric acid freezes at such low temperatures, and a container for sulfuric acid or hydrofluoric acid must be resistant to low temperatures. It is.

The main feature of the electrolytic polishing liquid composition of the present invention is that HF, which is an essential component of an electrolytic polishing liquid for niobium materials, is blended as fluorosulfuric acid instead of as conventional hydrofluoric acid. It is based on two facts. That is, as a result of various studies conducted by the inventors, it was found that part of HF mixed in concentrated sulfuric acid exists as free HF, and the remainder exists as fluorosulfuric acid (HSO 3 F), and both are in chemical equilibrium. It was discovered that they coexist while maintaining the same Even when mixed with concentrated sulfuric acid, this fluorosulfuric acid does not generate much heat. Therefore, unlike conventional electrolytic polishing liquids, the electropolishing liquid composition of the present invention can be prepared without evaporation of HF by applying the preparation method of the present invention. Therefore, a high-performance electrolytic polishing liquid composition can be obtained without causing a decrease in HF concentration, and no safety management problems will occur.

In the preparation method of the present invention, among the three types of raw materials, concentrated sulfuric acid and water are first added and mixed, and the heat of dilution generated at that time is released by cooling, and then fluorosulfuric acid is added. Therefore, the rise in temperature of the electrolytic solution composition immediately after preparation is extremely small. Therefore, since the container can be sealed immediately after mixing fluorosulfuric acid, it is possible to almost eliminate HF evaporation during preparation.

以下に本発明の一実施例を説明する。 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

Example An electrolytic polishing liquid composition for niobium materials was prepared according to the following formulation and procedure.

配合処方 濃硫酸(濃度98%): 749c.c./ フルオロ硫酸: 134c.c./ 水: 117c.c./ () 先ず、濃硫酸749c.c./中に水117c.c./を

Mixed recipe Concentrated sulfuric acid (concentration 98%): 749 c.c. / Fluorosulfuric acid: 134 c.c. / Water: 117 c.c. / () First, add 117 c.c. of water to 749 c.c. of concentrated sulfuric acid. When added and mixed, the temperature of the liquid rose to about 70℃ due to the heat of dilution.

() Next, after cooling this with water to about 20° C., 134 c.c. of fluorosulfuric acid was added and mixed to obtain an electrolytic polishing liquid composition for niobium materials. At this time, since fluorosulfuric acid emits fumes in the air, the fluorosulfuric acid injection port was immersed in the sulfuric acid diluted solution to prevent the fluorosulfuric acid from coming into contact with the air. Immediately after adding fluorosulfuric acid, the preparation container was sealed with a lid. For this reason, we did not measure the rise in temperature of the liquid immediately after adding fluorosulfuric acid, but when we touched the container with our hands, we could hardly feel any rise in temperature, and even after that, the container remained sealed without any inconvenience.

なお、配合されたフルオロ硫酸は先に添加され

The blended fluorosulfuric acid quickly reacts with the previously added water to generate free HF and sulfuric acid as shown in the formula below, reaching a chemical equilibrium state.

HSO 3 F + H 2 O → HF + H 2 SO 4 Also, when the concentration of HF lost by evaporation during preparation was measured, it was found to be 1 g/fluorosulfuric acid equivalent.
In other words, it was less than 1% of the blended amount of 134g/. Incidentally, considering that the amount of HF evaporated when preparing conventional electrolytic polishing liquid for niobium materials is 10 to 13%, it is understood that the results in the above example are a significant improvement. be done.
