高效电解二氧化锰电化学分析研究

Electrochemical analysis for highly efficient manganese dioxide electrolysis

  • 摘要: 采用循环伏安、线性伏安、电化学阻抗谱等分析测试手段并结合电解实验,系统地研究了硫酸体系下Mn2+的电化学氧化行为。结果表明,Mn2+ → MnO2的电氧化过程存在钝化现象,为实现MnO2的高效电解,需合理控制阳极电位,从而避免析氧和生成MnO4。升高电解温度可有效改善电解MnO2过程的界面钝化;通过控制合理的阳极电流可获得更高的电流效率。在50 g/L H2SO4 + 25 g/L Mn2+电解液中,80 ℃下,当阳极电流密度为6 mA/cm2时,电流效率可达到96.6%。

     

    Abstract: In this work, the electrochemical oxidation behavior of Mn2+ ions in sulfuric acid solutions was systematically studied via cyclic voltammetry, linear voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and electrolytic experiments. The results show that a passivation phenomenon is present in the electro-oxidation process of Mn2+ to MnO2, suggesting that the applied current should be reasonably controlled to reduce the side reactions caused by polarization. To achieve high-efficient MnO2 electrolysis, the anodic potential should be controlled within an appropriate range to avoid oxygen evolution and the generation of MnO4- ions. Increasing the electrolytic temperature can significantly relieve the passivation on the interface during the electrolysis of MnO2, and combined with reasonable anodic current control, a higher current efficiency can be obtained. The optimum current efficiency of 96.6% for MnO2 electrolysis is achieved when the anodic current is 6 mA/cm2 and at 80 ℃ in 50 g/L H2SO4 solution containing 25 g/L Mn2+.
