钛铝合金熔盐电解脱铝的研究

Study on removal of aluminum from Ti-Al alloy by molten salt electrolysis

  • 摘要: 本文基于钛铝合金的二次回收与分离利用,以钛铝合金为阳极,以熔融冰晶石为电解质,开展了熔盐电解脱铝研究。利用XRD和ICP-AES技术对电解前后的样品和熔盐进行表征和定量分析。结果显示,电解电压在电解过程中虽有小幅上升但总体保持稳定;电解后的TiAl3合金主要物相仍为TiAl3,伴有金属Ti相;在现有实验条件下,当电流密度为0.20 A/cm2时,铝含量减少了16.64%,脱铝率达26.8%,脱铝效果较优;持续电解5 h后,铝含量降低了17.55%,脱铝率提升至28.26%。综上可知,钛铝合金冰晶石基熔盐电解脱铝方案可降低合金中铝的含量,并得到金属Ti。

     

    Abstract: The investigation on the dealloying of aluminum-titanium alloy by molten salt electrolysis was performed, in which titanium alloy was used as sacrificial anode and Na3AlF6 as electrolyte for electrolysis. The samples and molten salt before and after electrolysis were characterized by XRD. The Al content in the Ti-Al alloy samples was quantitatively analyzed by ICP-AES. The results show that the electrolysis voltage gradually rose to a balanced value. It is found by X-ray diffraction that the main phase of the TiAl3 alloy is TiAl3 after electrolysis, but the metal Ti appears. The analysis of ICP-AES showed that the optimal electrolysis current density is 0.20 A/cm2 leading to reduction of 16.64% in Al content and the dealuminization rate of 26.8%. When the current density of 0.20 A/cm2 was electrolyzed for 5 h, the aluminum content decreased by 17.55% and the dealuminization rate reached 28.26%. Thus, it is feasible to reduce the aluminum content in the titanium-aluminum alloy by using molten salt electrolysis.
