Abstract

The invention provides a pelleting method of titanium diboride powder, which is suitable for preparing high-content high-strength large TiB2 particles for the wettable cathode of an aluminium electrolysis cell and is especially suitable for preparing the high-content high-strength large TiB2 particles for the wettable cathode of a deflector-type aluminium electrolysis cell. The method is characterized in that the high-content high-strength TiB2 particles are prepared by carrying out processes of kneading, shaping, roasting, crushing, sieving and the like on the titanium diboride powder as the main aggregate by adopting an organic binder or inorganic binder or a compound binder of the organic binder or the inorganic binder. The method has simple preparation process, controllable granularity and convenient application. The TiB2 particles prepared by the invention has the TiB2 content of 70-95 percent, the strength of 30-60MPa, and the resistivity of 0.5-40 muomega.m, and moreover, the TiB2 particles have small deformation and strong high temperature melt penetration resistance, can be completely wetted with aluminium liquid, realizes aluminium electrolysis production energy saving, prolongs the service life of the cathode of the aluminium electrolysis cell and reduces the aluminium electrolysis production cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of aluminum electrolysis, and is particularly suitable for titanium diboride (TiB 2 ) granulation method of granules. technical background [0002] The Hall-Elutt aluminum smelting method has been the only method for industrial aluminum smelting worldwide since 1886, but its high power consumption, short service life of the cathode, and short service life of the electrolytic cell lead to aluminum production costs too high. Studies have shown that TiB 2 Wettable cathode technology is one of the key technologies to innovate the current high-temperature molten salt electrolysis method for aluminum production and achieve substantial energy savings. [0003] Currently, TiB 2 There are many application forms of wettable cathodes. In contrast, TiB 2 -C composite cathode material has the characteristics of high bonding strength, long life, easy to enlarge, etc., and has better performance. It is one of the wett...
