Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing a TiB2 cathode coating for aluminium electrolysis. The method comprises the following steps: grinding such materials as TiB2, a carbon-based material, an additive and the like, then mixing the ground materials proportionally and further mixing the ground materials uniformly in mixing and kneading equipment to obtain a solid powder mixture; adding a diluent into an adhesive, continuously stirring the two materials until the two materials are fully mixed uniformly; and pouring the uniformly mixed mixture of the diluent and the adhesive into the mixing and kneading equipment, nixing the mixed mixture of the diluent and the adhesive with the solid powder mixture and stirring the materials until the materials are mixed uniformly, thus obtaining the TiB2 composite required for aluminium electrolysis. The method has the following beneficial effects: after the product produced by the method is used in an aluminium electrolytic cell, the service life of the aluminium electrolytic cell is greatly prolonged and simultaneously the current efficiency of an aluminium electrolysis process is greatly improved, thus lowering the production cost of aluminium per ton; and the method has the advantages of short process flow, low production treatment cost and low environmental pollution.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of a cathode coating for aluminum electrolysis. Especially aluminum electrolytic cell TiB 2 A method for preparing a cathode composite coating material. Background technique [0002] Aluminum smelting electrolysis is the only industrial aluminum smelting method in the world today. It uses the cryolite-alumina molten salt electrolysis method to smelt aluminum. The current carbon cathode does not wet the molten metal aluminum. In order to keep the surface of the molten metal aluminum cathode stable, a considerable thickness of aluminum liquid must be kept in the current aluminum electrolytic cell. Metal aluminum liquid is the conductive fluid in the tank. Under the action of strong magnetic field, electromagnetic force is induced in the conductive fluid, which makes the aluminum liquid flow, fluctuate and bulge. This not only makes it necessary to maintain a relatively high pole distance between the cathode...
