Problems solved by technology

The decrease of oxygen content leads to further increase of deep deoxygenation resistance, so effective electrolysis is difficult to carry out, and the proportion of side reactions gradually increases
Since the production has high requirements on the purity of metal products, the production time must be extended, resulting in a decrease in production efficiency, and at the same time, the effective utilization rate of the current also decreases.

Abstract

The invention provides an improved process for smelting metallic titanium by an electro-deoxidation method, which is characterized in that cathode plates used in the process are prepared by mixing titanium dioxide powder, a PVA binder with a carbon powder additive based on a certain ratio, and then sintering at a temperature of 1300 DEG C for 4-6 hours after forming in batch at a pressure of 15-20 MPa. The cathode plates are connected with cathode wires in series to form cathode bars. An anode adopts a rotating graphite anode; the graphite anode can reduce the deoxidation potential in the process of deoxidation; and a rotating electrode can weaken the anode effect on the surface and fast discharge reaction products, wherein the rotating speed is generally in the range of 60-200rpm. The improved process has the advantages of short production cycle, simple structure and low production cost of titanium sponge, and can be applied to manufacturing fields of other metals and alloy products..
