Description
United States Patent 1 3,281,239 ALUMINUM BASE ALLDYS CONTAINING THALLIUM John T. Reding, Freeport, and John .1. Newport III and Leonard M. Vaught, Lake Jackson, Tex., assignors to The Dow Chemical Company, Midland, Mich, a corporation of Delaware No Drawing. Filed Apr. 22, 1964, Ser. No. 361,881 7 Claims. (Cl. 75138) This invention relates to sacrificial galvanic anodes and more particularly is concerned with a novel aluminum based alloy exhibiting high oxidation potential and a useful high electrical output per unit mass of metal; i.e. a high electrochemical equivalent which is suitable for use in such galvanic anodes.
Theoretically, aluminum should be expected to perform satisfactorily as a galvanic anode because the element aluminum fulfills the two primary requirements for anodes; (1) a high theoretical oxidation potential (1.80 volts versus calomel reference) and (2) a high theoretical electrical output per unit mass of metal consumed (2.98 amp-hours per gram). In actual practice, however, aluminum has not proved to be satisfactory for use in such applications since it does not exhibit these favorable theo retical properties when used as a sacrificial galvanic anode. The presence of the normally passive oxide surface film on the aluminum apparently presents a barrier to the oxidation of the aluminum metal thereby reducing the effective oxidation potential to about 0.7 volt (as measured in closed circuit at either 250 or 1000 milliamperes/square foot in a synthetic seawater electrolyte with a standard saturated KCl calomel cell as reference). At such low operating voltages, no cathodic protection is given, therefore the anode exhibits no useful electrical output. By comparison, the actual working potential of magnesium is about 1.5 volt and of zinc is about 1 volt.
It is known in the art to add certain elements such as barium, mercury, zinc, magnesium, tin, gallium or indium to aluminum in an attempt to provide an aluminum anode of commercial utility. Such additions have not been successful in that no marked increase in oxidation potential along with feasible efliciency has been realized with elements such as gallium, barium, zinc, or magnesium. Additionally, with aluminum alloys containing mercury or tin although an increased potential results, other problems are encountered. To illustrate, the relatively low boiling point of mercury, about 356.9 C., makes the addition of mercury to aluminum very difiicult at atmospheric pressure. Of greater consequence, however, is the fact that aluminum based mercury containing alloys can exhibit a marked sensitivity to air oxidation. Such oxidation shows up as detrimental metal losses thereby lowering the total amount of useful current that can be obtained from an anode, i.e. lowered anode efiiciency. Aluminum based tin containing alloy anodes exhibit a poor oxidation pattern in that a spongy layer of metal is formed on the anode. Massive pieces of this spongy metal fall or separate from the main anode body. These are lost as no useful current can be realized from such isolated pieces; in turn, this substantially lowers the actual efiiciency of the anode.
It is a principal object of the present invention to provide an aluminum based galvanic anode which exhibits both high operating oxidation potential and a useful ampere-hour output.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a novel aluminum alloy particularly suitable for use as a sacrificial galvanic anode.
These and other objects and advantages readily will become apparent from the detailed description of the invention presented hereinafter.
The present invention comprises a novel aluminum based alloy composition containing a small amount of thallium and in combination therewith a small amount of gallium, zinc, barium, mercury, tin or magnesium.
More particularly, the present composition consists essentially of aluminum and from about 0.005 to about 1 weight percent thallium having in combination therewith a member selected from the following group; from about 0.01 to about 1 weight percent gallium, from about 0.3 to about 5 weight percent zinc, from about 0.1 toabout 5 weight percent barium, from about 0.001 to about 0.5 weight percent mercury, from about 0.01 to about 10 weight percent tin or from about 1 to about 25 weight percent magnesium.
Preferably the alloys will consist essentially of aluminum and alloyed therewith from about 0.01 to about 0.5 weight percent thallium and a third member as follows in the concentrations set forth; gallium from about 0.03 to about 0.1 weight percent, zinc from about 0.5 to about 5 weight percent, barium from about 0.2 to about 1 weight percent, mercury from about 0.002 to about 0.02 Weight percent, tin from about 0.03 to about 0.5 weight percent or magnesium from about 3 to about 15 Weight percent. All weight percents are based on the total composition weight.
Unexpectedly, the present novel compositions when employed as sacrificial galvanic anodes exhibit a satisfactory corrosion pattern, a high operating oxidation potential and a high electrical output per unit mass of metal consumed.
Galvanic anodes can be prepared from the novel compositions by use of alloying and casting or fabricating techniques ordinarily employed in the aluminum art. No special metal handling or fabricating operations are required.
Aluminum for use in preparing the present novel alloy compositions should preferably be commercial high purity metal (99.99% Al) but can be comercial grade (99.9%) metal having normal production introduced impurities associated therewith. The alloying elements also can be of high purity or of commercial grade.
The resulting alloy product is not detrimentally degraded by storage in normal atmospheres through air oxidation.
The following example will serve to further illustrate the present invention but is not meant to limit it thereto.
Example.--A number of anodes of the present invention were prepared by melting commercial 99.9% or 99.99% purity aluminum ingot in a graphite crucible positioned within an electric furnace. Requisite amounts of thallium and a second predetermined alloying ingredient were introduced into the molten aluminum and the resulting mixture stirred to effect dispersion of the alloying ingredients throughout the melt. The resulting alloy was cast in a graphite mold into cylindrical specimens about 5 /2 inches long and about inch in diameter. The cooling and solidification rate of the castings were controlled such that these simulated the cooling rate experienced in production of commercial, field-sized cast anodes.
The performance of the alloys was evaluated by positioning each cast cylindrical specimen (as anode) in a schedule 40 steel can 3 inches in diameter and 6 inches tall (as cathode). Synthetic seawater was used as an electrolyte with about 4 inches of each specimen being immersed. The cells were complete with respect to elec- 'trical circuitry, a rectifier being employed to maintain a constant current through a group of cells connected in series.
The results of a number of runs comparing the per formance of the novel ternary aluminum alloy anodes of the composition of the present invention with the commercial aluminum used as a base metal for these alloys and binary alloys without thallium as well as magnesium and zinc anodes as controls are summarized in Table 1.

are still borderline with respect to realizing useful electrical output.
These results clearly show the superiority of the present novel thallium containing alloys with respect to oxidation potential and/ or high electrochemical equivalent as compared to alloys containing no thallium. It is to be further noted that the oxidation potential and useful electrical output of the present novel compositions all are in the ranges desired and required for successful function as sacrificial anodes.
Large anodes, D-shaped in cross section, having dimensions of about 3 /2 inches diameter and 12 inches long can be prepared from the preseent novel compositions. Upon being subjected to actual field tests in flowing seawater these all can be expected to perform in the same satisfactory manner as sacrificial galvanic anodes.
In a manner similar to that described for the foregoing example, alloys comprising from about 0.005 to about 1 weight percent thallium and one of the following (a) about 0.01 to about 1 weight percent gallium (b) about 0.3 to about 5 weight percent zinc, (0) about 0.1 to about 5 weight percent barium, ((1) about 0.001 to about 0.5 weight percent mercury, (e) about 0.01 to about weight percent tin or (f) about 1 to about 25 weight percent magnesium, balancc aluminum, all exhibit a high oxidation potential and electrical output and are suitable for use as sacrificial anodes for applications such as galvanic pigments in paint films, galvanic anode materials for primary batteries, sacrificial galvanic coatings for sheet steel and other metals cathodic to aluminum and sacrificial anodes for cathodic protection. Additionally these compositions find utility as an active ingredient in flares, for use in chemical reductions and in the preparation of aluminum alkyls.
