Problems solved by technology

Due to the high price of iridium, the dissolution process must minimize the loss of iridium, and in order to remove other ions introduced, the preparation steps will be increased to increase the loss of iridium
In addition, the purity of the iridium trichloride hydrate prepared by the above-mentioned existing method is relatively low

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing an iridous chloride hydrate (IrCl3.3H2O). The method comprises the following steps of: adding a hydrochloric acid solution and an iridium powder raw material into a U-shaped electrolytic cell, loading alternating current onto the two ends of an electrode, and directly dissolving the iridium powder into hydrochloric acid to obtain a chloroiridic acid aqueous solution; filtering the chloroiridic acid aqueous solution, and distilling to obtain a chloroiridic acid concentrated solution; and crystallizing the chloroiridic acid concentrated solution in a crystallization furnace to obtain an iridous chloride hydrate. In the preparation method of the iridous chloride hydrate, the iridous powder raw material is directly dissolved into the hydrochloric acid without adding any other reagent, so that the production cost is lowered, and a product is crystalized into the iridous chloride hydrate which is easy to carry, has stable iridium concentration, and is convenient to weigh and use; and when a high-purify iridous powder raw material is adopted, the impurity interference can be prevented, and a high-purity iridous chloride hydrate is prepared.
