Problems solved by technology

The disadvantages of the reduction method are: the temperature is high, the molten salt volatilizes seriously, mechanical stirring is required, the energy consumption is large, the obtained alloy product is prone to slag inclusion, and the production process is long and complicated, which belongs to intermittent production, so the production cost is relatively high. high
[0007] Due to the low solubility of zirconium in magnesium, the Mg-Zr master alloy produced by these methods at present, when the zirconium content exceeds 0.6%, the magnesium and zirconium in the alloy are generally mechanically mixed, and there is a serious segregation phenomenon

Abstract

The invention provides a method for directly preparing Mg-Zr alloy by electrolyzing MgCl2, K2ZrF6 and ZrO2. KCl and K2ZrF6 are dried under 600 DEG C, and anhydrous MgCl2 and KF are dried at 130 DEG C under the vacuum condition; KCl, K2ZrF6, anhydrous MgCl2, KF and ZrO2 are ground and mixed evenly in the ratio of 35 percent to 45 percent : 5.3 percent to 15 percent:35 percent to 45 percent:0.1 percent to 4.5 percent:2 percent to 4 percent, and then heated and melted in an electrobath; a metal molybdenum wire is taken as the cathode, a cathode product collecting sleeve is arranged on the cathode, a graphite rod is taken as the anode, the electrobath temperature is between 650 DEG C and 800 DEG C, the cathode current density is 6A / cm<2> to 13A / cm<2> and the electrobath voltage is 5V to 9V; the temperature is preserved for 10min to 40min after one hour of electrolysis, and the Mg-Zr alloy is deposited near the cathode in the molten salt electrobath; the whole process is carried out underthe protection of argon. With the method, even alloy components can be obtained; and the method solves the technical difficulty of component segregation of the Mg-Zr intermediate alloy, and is characterized by greatly shortened technological process, low operation temperature and low production cost.
