Definitions
- the invention relates to cathode systems for electrolytic Almnim extraction, in particular those with improved service life.
- Tub serving the cathode under the melt, which largely protects against reoxidation.
- the carbon electrodes acting as an anode (block or Söderberg anodes) are gradually used up by the released oxygen.
- Suitable electrolytic cells usually consist of a steel tub, which is covered on the inside with a heat-insulating material.
- the bottom of the electrolytic cells consists of several cathode blocks arranged in parallel on the insulating material, the joints of which are sealed to one another and to the edge with ramming compounds made from mixtures of carbon granules and coal tar or coal tar pitch.
- the material for the cathode blocks mostly consists of anthracite (recently also graphite or coke or their mixtures with anthracite), which is calcined at 1200 ° C or higher, then ground and classified according to the particle size. A suitable particle size fraction is mixed with pitch and formed into blocks.
- the binding pitch is then converted at elevated temperature to a material consisting essentially of carbon.
- a material consisting essentially of carbon Thereby, graphitized (treatment at approx. 3000 ° C), so-called “semi-graphitized” (treatment at approx. 2300 ° C), so-called “semi-graphitic” (graphitic particles, but treatment of the block at approx. 1200 ° C), and Amorphous blocks (particles are not or only partially graphitized, treatment of the block at approx. 1200 ° C) is differentiated.
- Aluminum melt takes place through steel bars or collectors, which are connected to the cathode blocks in an electrically conductive manner.
- a consumption of the material by removal is observed, which determines the service life of the electrolysis cell; this is usually 1500 to 3000 days.
- the removal is not uniform over the length of the cathode blocks, but one observes, particularly with graphitized cathode blocks, two maxima of the removal near the side stones, and a minimum in the middle of the length of the cathode blocks (W-shaped profile). Due to the uneven removal, the useful life is determined by the places of the largest removal.
- EP-A 0 284 298 describes improved sealing materials for connecting the
- Cathode blocks described They are less prone to cracking than known sealing materials and thus reduce the risk of failure. However, this measure does not change the non-uniform abrasion over the length of the block.
- WO-A 00/46426 describes a one-piece graphite cathode block which has different specific electrical resistances parallel to the longitudinal axis, the resistance near the ends of the block being higher than in the middle. This differentiation is achieved by different heat treatment in the graphitization, namely the use of temperatures from 2200 to 2500 ° C in the area of the ends, and 2700 to 3000 ° C in the area of the center of the cathode blocks. Such different temperatures can be achieved through poor insulation of the graphitization furnaces. Another possibility is to choose the current density differently during the graphitization, and thus the to distribute the Joule heat generated unevenly over the cathode block to be graphitized. While the former possibility has to be discarded for economic reasons, the second possibility requires an additional effort in the production in the graphitization step, which has to be optimized for the special cathode shape.
- a cathode with an improved service life is described in WO-A 00/46427.
- a graphite cathode is impregnated with a carbonizable substance under reduced pressure at elevated temperature, the temperature and time having to be chosen so that the substance is sufficiently fluid to fill the pores of the cathode, and then the impregnated cathode is at a Temperature below
- WO-A 00/46428 describes a graphite cathode whose specific electrical resistance in the direction perpendicular to its longitudinal axis is higher than that in FIG
- the task is solved by dividing the power dissipation from the
- Carbon cathode in multiple zones This can be achieved by dividing the contact mass or tamping mass effecting the electrical connection between the cathode and the collectors into several zones in which material with different conductivity or different electrical resistance is used, or by multi-part design of the steel bars or collectors.
- the invention therefore relates to cathode systems for electrolytic aluminum production, characterized in that they are arranged in the direction of their long axis on the
- Cathode system is understood here to mean the combination of the cathode block, the collector and the contact or ramming mass, which brings about the electrical contact between the cathode block and the collector.
- One way of realizing the solution according to the invention is to use different materials with different contact resistance between the collector and the carbon material of the cathode along the length of the cathode systems. Another way of realizing this is to use multi-part collectors, the material and line cross section of the collector parts being chosen according to the desired resistance between a given (melt-facing) point of the cathode block and the free end of the collectors.
- Further objects of the invention are methods for contacting cathodes and collectors by at least two different contact or ramming masses in terms of their electrical conductivity, methods for producing suitable collectors with the multi-part structure described, and the use of different contact or ramming masses or multi-part collector filling forms in cathode systems for the electrolytic extraction of metallic aluminum.
- the contact or ramming mass serves both the mechanical strength of the combination of collector and cathode and the electrical contact between these parts of the cathode system. It is customary, for example, to pour the gap between the collector and the cathode with cast iron.
- ramming compounds filled with particulate carbon anthracite and / or graphite
- metal particles such as iron or iron alloys such as steel
- their binders tars especially coal tar
- pitches especially coal tar pitches

- adhesives in particular two- or multi-component adhesives, such as those based on epoxy resins or phenolic resins, which are also adequate by adding particulate metal and / or carbon in the form of anthracite and / or graphite powders Maintain conductivity in the desired degree.
- At least two different contact masses are preferably used for contacting cathodes and collectors, the boundary between zones of different materials running perpendicular to the long axis of the collectors.
- the contact resistance between the collector and the cathode is in the middle of the length of the cathode.
- Mine is the contact resistance in the region of the ends of the cathode.
- the contact mass is cast iron in the region of the center of the cathode length.

- Adhesives based on epoxy resins and / or phenolic resins are based on epoxy resins and / or phenolic resins.
- Particles of particulate carbon and metal particles in the form of powders, shot, fibers, whiskers and / or platelets are particularly preferred as electrically conductive particles.
- the division of the contact mass or the collector into zones of different conductivity or different electrical resistance is preferably carried out in such a way that the current density at the point of transition from the cathode to the aluminum melt covering its base is as uniform as possible over the length of the cathode.
- an embodiment is referred to as “as uniform as possible” in which the current density does not change by more than a factor of 2 over the cathode length.
- a change by a factor of at most 1.5 is preferred, particularly preferably by a factor of at most 1.3.
- the recess on the underside of the cathode blocks is preferably filled with the contact masses of different resistance to such an extent that only small amounts emerge when the collector rods are mounted.
- the different contact possibilities can also be implemented in succession on the same cathode blocks.
- the specific resistance of the selected contact masses can be set in a simple manner by different compositions.
- the same binders or binder mixtures can be used as a matrix with (depending on type and / or quantity) different ones
- Conducting additives are filled; However, it is also possible to vary the binders or cement mixtures depending on the type and amount of the conductive filler in order to achieve a similar processing viscosity and thereby to compensate for the forces acting on the cathode block during assembly.
- the division of the collectors into zones with different resistance can be carried out in such a way that the collector is divided into pieces of different cross-section, the metals used being the same or different, or into pieces of metals with different conductivity, such as copper and steel. Of course it is it is also possible to vary the cross-section and material of the collector parts at the same time. Because of the mostly different thermal expansion of different metals, it is preferred to realize the desired different resistance by using the same metal and different cross sections.
- metal parts with different specific resistance in the direction of the side of the carbon cathode facing the melt are then preferably arranged on a common carrier made of a highly conductive metal (for example copper).
- the zones of the collector with different resistance are separated from each other by a flat insulator. Gliminer film is preferred (because of its high thermal stability).
- suitable fastening means in particular sleeves made of sheet metal.
- FIG. 2 shows a cross section along the line II-II 'through a cathode system with a
- Zone with higher resistance is designed in the form of a sleeve.
- 1 shows a longitudinal section through a cathode system with conventional collector rod 2, which is connected to the cathode 1 via two contact masses 13 and 14 with differing electrical resistance.
- the contact resistance is from the collector
- the material of the contact mass 14 is cast iron, while the material of the contact mass 13 is a tar pitch, synthetic resin or synthetic resin adhesive filled with carbon and / or metal particles.
- the collector consists of two zones 4 and 5, which have different electrical resistances due to their different cross-sections.

- Parts 4 and 5 of the collector are electrically separated from one another by an insulating intermediate layer 6.
- the tensioning device for the cuff is not shown in this drawing.
- FIG. 5 Another embodiment of the invention with a multi-part collector 2 is shown in FIG. 5, the collector being composed of a thin plate 11 of a metal with a low resistance, such as copper, and two thicker plates 9 and 10 of a metal with a higher resistance, however also higher strength and rigidity, such as steel.
- the plate 11 is electrically insulated from the plate 9, but is conductively connected to the plate 10.
- Ratio of the resistors chosen so that the current density in the transition from cathode 1 to almrinium melt in the bottom of the cell is as uniform as possible.

Otherwise, the ramming mass effects the electrical contacting (here between zone 5 and the cathode) and the fixing of collector 2 and cathode 1 in a known manner. In the area of the section XI-XI 'in FIG. 4, which is shown in FIG. 11, such insulation on the side is naturally no longer necessary. Therefore, the contact resistance between the cathode 1 and the collector 2 via the ramming mass 13 is also considerably lower in this area because of the larger contact area, which also serves to increase the current density in this area.
- the collectors are divided into more than two zones, insulation must also be carried out on the sides.
