Problems solved by technology

[0004] When using molten salt electrolysis to prepare magnesium rare earth alloys, if a chloride molten salt electrolysis system is used, anhydrous chloride is generally used as the electrolytic raw material, but the preparation cost of anhydrous chloride is relatively high, resulting in the use of anhydrous chloride as the raw material. When electrolytically preparing magnesium rare earth alloys from raw materials, the overall cost is relatively high

Abstract

The invention relates to a molten salt electrolyte composition for preparing magnesium-rare earth alloy by using water-containing chloride to electrolyze, wherein the molten salt electrolyte is formed by mixing potassium chloride, anhydrous magnesium chloride, anhydrous rare earth chloride according to the weight ratio of 1: 0.05: 0.50-1: 0.50: 0.05. When the magnesium-rare earth alloy is prepared by using water-containing chloride as raw material to electrolyze, the preparation cost can be effectively reduced, and simultaneously the rare earth content with relatively wider range can be obtained under the condition that water-containing chloride is used as electrolysis raw material to electrolyze.
