Abstract

The invention aims to provide an electrolytic method for manufacturing aluminum-manganese alloy in a fluoride-chloride molten salt system. The electrolytic method includes that in an electrolytic bath, inert metal molybdenum is used as a cathode and is placed at a lower portion of the electrolytic bath, and graphite is used as an anode; an electrolyte comprises 39% of NaCl, 50% of KCl and 11% of AlF3, is prepared according to the mass ratio and is heated, so that the temperature of the electrolyte ranges from 680 DEG C to 730 DEG C; MgCl2 is added into the electrolyte after the electrolyte is melted, and the quantity of the added MgCl2 accounts for 40-75% of the mass of the AlF3; direct-current power is switched on for electrolysis, the electrolytic temperature ranges from 680 DEG C to 730 DEG C, the current density of the cathode ranges from 5.2A / cm<2> to 8.7A / cm<2>, the current density of the anode ranges from 0.6A / cm<2> to 1.1A / cm<2>, and the voltage of the bath ranges from 4.7V to 6.1V; and liquid Al-Mg alloy is deposited at a position close to the cathode of the electrolytic bath after electrolysis is carried out for 1.5 to 4 hours, and is cooled down to obtain the solid Al-Mg alloy. The electrolytic method has the advantages that a process of a production technology can be greatly shortened, the technology is simple, energy is saved, and the purity of the product is high.

Description
