Embodiment 1

[0033] An alloy material suitable for the inert anode of the metal molten salt electrolytic cell, the alloy mass composition is: 47.5% copper, 30% nickel, 15% iron, 5% aluminum, 2.5% La. The anode is subjected to double-stage homogenization and double-stage aging treatment in a high-temperature vacuum quenching furnace. The heat treatment process is:

[0034] Step 1: Slowly heat the alloy to 840°C at a heating rate of 4°C / min, and keep it warm for 6 hours, so that the low melting point rare earth phase is fully re-dissolved;

[0035] Step 2: Continue heating the alloy to 1200°C at a heating rate of 10°C / min and keep it warm for 40 hours to dissolve the coarse NiAl phase during casting and eliminate the dendrite structure in the cast state to obtain a uniform single-phase structure;

[0036] Step 3: Perform rapid gas jet quenching on the alloy at high temperature, keep the cooling rate at 5-20°C / s, and continue jetting until the alloy is cooled below 400°C to obtain the supersa...

[0041] An alloy material suitable for the inert anode of the metal molten salt electrolytic cell, the alloy mass composition is: 49.5% copper, 30% nickel, 15% iron, 5% aluminum, 0.5% La. The anode is subjected to double-stage homogenization and double-stage aging treatment in a high-temperature vacuum quenching furnace. The heat treatment process is:

[0042] Step 1: Slowly heat the alloy to 840°C at a heating rate of 4°C / min, and keep it warm for 4 hours to fully dissolve the low melting point rare earth phase;

[0043] Step 2: Continue heating the alloy to 1200°C at a heating rate of 10°C / min and keep it warm for 40 hours to melt back the coarse NiAl phase during the casting process and eliminate the as-cast dendrite structure to obtain a uniform single-phase structure;

[0044] Step 3: Perform rapid gas jet quenching on the alloy at high temperature, keep the cooling rate at 5-20°C / s, and continue jetting until the alloy is cooled below 400°C to obtain the supersaturated so...

The anode is subjected to double-stage homogenization and double-stage aging treatment in a high-temperature vacuum quenching furnace. The heat treatment process is:

[0050] Step 1: Slowly heat the alloy to 850°C at a heating rate of 4°C / min, and keep it warm for 4 hours to fully dissolve the low-melting rare earth phase;

[0051] Step 2: Continue heating the alloy to 1180°C at a heating rate of 10°C / min, and hold it for 24 hours to eliminate the Cu-rich and NiFe-rich dual-phase structure formed during the casting process to obtain a uniform single-phase structure;

Abstract

The invention discloses a rare earth-containing Cu-Ni-Fe alloy inert anode material and a heat treatment method thereof, and relates to an aluminum electrolysis alloy inert anode material, and a heat treatment method suitable for the high-temperature molten salt aluminum electrolysis alloy inert anode material. The inert anode material comprises 35-65mass% of Cu, 20-35mass% of Ni and 15-30mass% of Fe, and the sum of the mass percentages of the above three elements is 92.5-99.9%. The heat treatment method of the inert anode material comprises the following steps: carrying out heating, heat insulation and strong cooling quenching for homogenization heat treatment to obtain a uniform supersaturated solid solution structure, and carrying out two-stage ageing heat treatment to obtain a fine and uniform second phase dispersed and distributed on an anode matrix. The uniformly dispersed anode matrix structure has a stationary voltage in the electrolytic process, and has a good high-temperature oxidation resistance and a good electrolyte corrosion resistance, and the impurity content in an electrolysis aluminum product is lower than 0.5%.

Description

technical field [0001] A rare earth-containing Cu-Ni-Fe alloy inert anode material and a heat treatment method thereof relate to an aluminum electrolytic alloy inert anode material and a heat treatment method suitable for high-temperature molten salt aluminum electrolytic alloy inert anode materials. Background technique [0002] As the second largest metal after steel, aluminum has an important strategic position in national economic and social development. The production of primary aluminum still uses the Hall-heroult process so far. While the electrolysis process consumes a lot of electricity, it also emits a lot of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and fluorocarbons. [0003] The development of energy-saving and environment-friendly aluminum electrolysis technology based on inert electrode materials is the fundamental way to upgrade and transform the aluminum electrolysis industry to energy-saving and environment-friendly development, so as to achieve the goal of z...
