Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing a magnesium-nickel alloy by molten salt electrolysis and a device therefor. The device consists of an electrolytic cell body, an anode cylinder, a cathode, a connecting lead, a corundum crucible, a temperature thermocouple and an electrical heating body. The electrolytic cell body and the corundum crucible are of the open cylinder structures with bottoms; the anode cylinder is of the structure without a bottom and a cover; and the cathode is placed at the center of the anode cylinder. In the method, sodium fluoride and magnesium fluoride are mixed as the molten salt, and magnesium oxide accounting for 3-4% of the total mass of the sodium fluoride and the magnesium fluoride is added; the molten salt is placed into an electrolytic cell and heated to 900-1,200 DEG C, and then the two poles are electrified, the current density of the anode is 0.5-1A / cm<2>, and the electrolysis time is 0.4-1.5h; then, the corundum crucible containing the magnesium-nickel alloy and the cathode at the bottom of the electrolytic cell are taken out, and finally a new cathode and a new corundum crucible are placed into the electrolytic cell. The magnesium-nickel alloy is prepared in the open system, no metallic magnesium loss occurs, the production is easy to operate, and the magnesium content in the magnesium-nickel alloy can be controlled.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nickel alloys, in particular to the preparation technology of magnesium-nickel alloys. Background technique [0002] Hydrogen storage alloys have become the most widely used hydrogen storage materials due to their advantages of large hydrogen storage capacity, no pollution, safety and reliability, and long cycle life. Among them, the magnesium-nickel hydrogen storage alloy material is recognized as one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. At present, the methods for preparing magnesium-nickel alloys include smelting method, chemical co-precipitation method, mechanical alloying method, and combustion synthesis method. [0003] At present, the method of producing magnesium-nickel alloy is mostly smelting method. This method smelts high-purity magnesium and nickel metals. This process is due to the low density of metal magnesium (magnesium density is 1.74g / cm 3 , nickel density 8.88g / cm 3 )...
