Problems solved by technology

However, molten salt electrolysis of ilmenite has not been able to achieve industrial production, because its current efficiency is low, the electrolysis product is impure, and the molten salt electrolysis method needs to crush the ilmenite to less than 50 μm, and then sinter it at a high temperature of 800-1000 ° C Made into iron ore electrodes, which greatly increases the production cost and energy consumption

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of metal smelting and extraction, and particularly relates to a method for preparing Al-Ti-Fe alloy by thermite reduction of ilmenite in cryolite-based molten salt. The present invention uses metallic aluminum as a reducing agent, performs thermite reduction of ilmenite in a cryolite-based molten salt medium at 930-985°C for 0.5-6 hours, and then separates the alloy and molten salt to obtain Al-Ti-Fe alloy and Al2O3-rich cryolite-based molten salt, in which the Al-Ti-Fe alloy contains 59.44~83.55% Al, 12.42~36.62% Ti, 0.41~9.03% Fe, and 0.87~2.68% Si by weight. Compared with the existing technology of directly reducing solid ilmenite with liquid aluminum, the reaction temperature required by the present invention is greatly lowered, energy consumption is reduced, metal aluminum is not lost, and the alloy product obtained by the reduction has high purity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of metal smelting and extraction, in particular to a method for preparing Al-Ti-Fe alloy by thermite reduction of ilmenite in cryolite-based molten salt. Background technique [0002] China has very rich reserves of titanium resources, which are distributed in 20 provinces and autonomous regions across the country. Among them, ilmenite accounts for a large proportion, while rutile resources are seriously insufficient. Among the ilmenite reserves, most of them are rock mines, and a small part are placer mines. The weight percentages of the main chemical compositions of ilmenite from various parts of China are shown in Table 1. [0003] Table 1 The main chemical composition of ilmenite in various parts of China [0004] [0005] At present, the vast majority of ilmenite is used to prepare titanium-rich materials such as artificial rutile and high-titanium slag, and then the titanium-rich materials are used for ind...
