Abstract

The invention relates to a preparing method of low-oxygen large-dimension high-purity hafnium powder. The purity of the low-oxygen large-dimension high-purity hafnium powder is as high as 99.99 weight percent, the oxygen content is less than 0.2 percent, and the granularity is greater than 1mu. m. A preparing process comprises the following steps that a, hafnium oxide powder, reducing agents and molten salt are contained into a crucible; b, the crucible is placed into a reaction tank, vacuum pumping is carried out after the device is sealed, then, argon gas is filled for washing, heating reduction is carried out, then, constant-temperature heat-insulation reduction is carried out, and cooling and furnace discharging are carried out after the reduction completion; c, obtained products are firstly washed by acid and are then washed by de-ionized water, then, sieving and drying are carried out, and the low-oxygen large-dimension high-purity hafnium powder can be obtained. The molten salt system adopted by the method provided by the invention has the advantages that the oxygen content in the hafnium powder can be effectively removed, meanwhile, the dimension of the hafnium powder can be controlled, the friction spontaneous combustion of the hafnium powder is prevented, and safety and controllability are realized.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of low-oxygen, large-size and high-purity hafnium powder, which prepares low-oxygen, large-size and high-purity hafnium materials by reducing its metal oxides by means of molten salt solution, and particularly relates to a particle size controllable and quality Controllable preparation method of high purity hafnium. Background technique [0002] Hafnium has excellent heat resistance and corrosion resistance, and has a large thermal neutron capture cross-section (115b). Pure hafnium is plastic and easy to process. It is an important material in the atomic energy industry. It can absorb thermal neutrons from nuclear reactors and control the reaction speed of the reactor. Control rods and protection devices used in atomic reactors. At the same time, because hafnium has high oxidation resistance, good thermal and electrical conductivity and low electron work function, it is used as the plasma emitter of plasma cutt...
