Abstract

The present invention relates to aluminum electrolysis, and is especially inert ceramet anode. The ceramet material has structure of at least two layers and is rod shaped, plate shaped or cup shaped. The ceramic phase is spinelle type composite oxide; and the metal phase is made of Cu, Ni, Co, Fe, Ag, Pt, Au and other metal or their binary or multiple-element alloy. The composite material with gradient function has excellent comprehensive performance under electrolysis, and the anode of the composite material needs no frequent replacement. Using the composite material of the present invention can alter the electrolytic bath structure, raise production efficiency, lower aluminum ingot producing cost, improve environment, and reduce power consumption.

Description

Technical field: [0001] This invention relates to aluminum electrolysis, and in particular to cermet inert anodes. Background technique: [0002] The aluminum electrolysis process takes place in a fluoride salt melt above 900 °C, which requires strict requirements on inert anode materials. The inert anode materials for aluminum electrolysis are mainly three types: metal oxide ceramics, alloy anodes and cermets. Among them, cermets take into account the advantages of strong corrosion resistance of oxide ceramics and good electrical conductivity of metals. However, due to a small amount of metal phase dispersed in the ceramic phase, the cermets studied at home and abroad have poor thermal shock resistance, poor electrical conductivity, difficulty in connecting with metal guide rods, and difficulty in large-scale; Densification, under the conditions of electrolysis, it is easy to cause oxidation and selective corrosion of the metal phase, resulting in slag and shedding of the...
