Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of hydrometallurgy, and particularly relates to a preparation method and application of a porous rhenium imprint composite material. BACKGROUND

[0002] Rhenium is known as "aviation engine bone powder". About 80% of the global rhenium is used for producing aviation engines, which has important significance in military strategy. Rhenium, known as "the core of aerospace", is a rare metal rarer than rare earth, and is an important strategic metal mineral resource. In order to ensure the safety of key raw materials in the fields of aviation, aerospace and military, strive for technological leadership and ensure long-term development, it is necessary to carry out scientific research and technical development of rhenium, and to do well in the strategic reserve of rhenium resources.

[0003] The core difficulty of rhenium extraction is how to efficiently and economically separate trace and precious rhenium from molybdenum and other impurities with similar chemical properties. Whether it is rhenium-molybdenum separation and phase state control in solvent extraction, or elution efficiency in ion exchange, it is directly related to the recovery rate of rhenium and production cost. At present, in view of these difficulties, researches are mainly concentrated in the development of higher selective extractants and resins, the optimization of existing process (such as controlling extraction conditions to prevent third phase), and the exploration of extraction-ion exchange combined process.

[0004] At present, the demand for high-purity metals at home and abroad is increasing, and the requirement for purity is extremely strict. The current market extraction rhenium method still has room for further improvement, therefore, it is urgent to design and develop a porous rhenium imprint composite material which can efficiently extract rhenium.

[0008] Further, in the preparation method of the porous rhenium imprinting composite material, the rhenium-containing ionic liquid aqueous solution is [C4mim][BF4] / H2O / NH4ReO4.

[0009] Further, in the rhenium-containing ionic liquid aqueous solution, the ratio of [C4mim][BF4] to H2O is 6-8:2-4 by weight fraction, and the concentration of NH4ReO4 is 20 g / L.

[0010] Further, in the preparation method of the porous rhenium imprinting composite material, the ratio of N-vinylimidazole to 4-chloromethylstyrene is 1:0.9-1.1 by weight fraction.

[0011] Further, in the preparation method of the porous rhenium imprinting composite material, the amount of azobisisobutyronitrile is 1-3% of the total mass of N-vinylimidazole and 4-chloromethylstyrene.

[0012] Further, in the preparation method of the porous rhenium imprinting composite material, the mass concentration of the dilute hydrochloric acid solution is 3-6%.

[0013] Further, in the preparation method of the porous rhenium imprinting composite material, the preparation method of the porous silica is as follows: 10 parts of an ionic liquid mixed system and 2 parts of TEOS are mixed, the mixture is stirred at 80 DEG C and 600 rpm for 30 minutes, then the temperature is lowered to 25 DEG C to form a porous gel and stabilize for 48 hours until the TEOS is completely hydrolyzed, the obtained precipitate is washed with water for 3 times to obtain the porous silica.

[0014] Further, in the preparation method of the porous silica, the ionic liquid mixed system is [C8mim]Br / H2O / NaCl system.

[0015] Preferably, in the ionic liquid mixed system, the ratio of [C8mim]Br:H2O:NaCl is 6-8:1-3:0.5-2 by weight fraction.

[0016] The porous rhenium imprinting composite material prepared by the preparation method described in any one of the above is applied to the extraction and preparation of ammonium perrhenate.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present application are:

These hierarchical porous rhenium imprinted composite materials have the advantages of large specific surface area, adjustable pore size and designable pore environment, so that they exhibit very high activity in rhenium extraction. When the material is applied to the extraction and preparation of ammonium rhenate, the purity of the ammonium rhenate product can reach 99.999% or above. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
