Problems solved by technology

In the extraction process, lead and lead alloys are mainly used as anode materials. The disadvantages are: high electrolytic cell voltage (3.0-4.0V), low current efficiency (75-85%), and short service life of the anode (0.5-1 year). The energy consumption of the electrowinning process is high (3000-4000 degrees per ton of zinc), and the anode material is easily dissolved and enters the plating solution, and then enters the cathode product, which seriously affects the product quality

Lead-silver binary and multiple alloy anodes: mainly include lead-silver (Pb-Ag), lead-arsenic (Pb-As), lead-calcium (Pb-Ca), lead-silver-calcium (Pb-Ag -Ca), lead-calcium-barium (Pb-Ca-Ba), lead-calcium-tin (Pb-Ca-Sn), etc., the main disadvantages of this type of anode are: (1) short service life; (2) energy consumption High; (3) It is easy to pollute the cathode product
[0004] 2. Titanium-based surface coating / plated anode: use metal titanium (Ti) as the substrate, and coat or plate a layer of noble metal or its oxide on the surface. The main disadvantages of this type of anode are: (1) The cost of the titanium substrate is high; (2) ) The coating is easily dissolved and the titanium substrate is easily passivated, resulting in a short life of the anode; (3) The solution contains impurity ions, which adhere to the anode and reduce the effect of the coating

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a nanometer PbO2-ACF inert anode material for zinc electro-deposition. The method comprises the following steps: growing nano lead dioxide (PbO2) on anactivated carbon fiber (ACF) matrix by adopting a microwave heating method, thereby obtaining the nanometer PbO2-ACF inert anode material.
