Description

Powder used in metallurgy tantalum and/or niobium powder and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to rare metal field of smelting, and be specifically related to tantalum powder and/or niobium powder and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Tantalum and niobium are rare elements, and their performance is closely similar.Because the oxide-film of tantalum and niobium has very high dielectric constant, so they are widely used in tantalum and/or niobium electrolytic capacitor is made.In addition, because tantalum and/or niobium have high-melting-point and low-vapor pressure, be therefore also applied to heat generating components, boat and the insulation material in Aero-Space, national defence, vacuum high temperature furnace.In addition, tantalum and/or niobium have excellent resistance to corrosion for liquid metal and the strong acid except hydrofluoric acid, and have good thermal conductivity and chemical stability, are also applied to the anti-corrosion material in the fields such as chemical industry and metallurgy.In addition, because tantalum and/or niobium have good biocompatibility, therefore conventionally can be used in medical field as operation suture thread, custom-made prosthesis, Invasive lumbar fusion device, joint prosthesis, bone fracture repair materials etc.Therefore tantalum has strong anti-electronics stress migration ability, also can be used for the barrier layer between copper cash and silicon in manufacturing integration circuit.
When tantalum and/or niobium are used for making electrolytic capacitor, conventionally the anode block of preparing porous with tantalum and/or the niobium raw material of powder type, anode block also needs the silk thread that inserts tantalum and/or niobium as lead-in wire while making, and also usually utilizes tantalum and/or niobium sheet to be processed into capacitor case.In the application of other side, first tantalum and/or niobium powder to be pressed into rod or bar in most cases, then carry out sintering, or even further electronic torch melting or electric arc melting, to reach densified, High Purity; And then be rolled, the processing such as drawing, form rod, plate, sheet, pipe, silk, paper tinsel and other tantalum and/or niobium goods and process material.
Tantalum and/or niobium be as high temperature refractory, and it is smelted and conventionally adopts following technique: first compound is reduced into metal dust, and then purification, sintering, adjustment performance, thereby is made into tantalum and/or the niobium powder of various satisfied different instructions for uses.If tantalum and/or niobium powder are for being processed into rod, plate, sheet, pipe, silk, paper tinsel and other tantalum and/or niobium goods processing material, being commonly called powder used in metallurgy tantalum and/or niobium powder.Compare with tantalum and/or niobium powder with capacitor, the feature of powder used in metallurgy tantalum and/or niobium powder is: (1) apparent density is large; (2) impurity content such as oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen is low.A powder used in metallurgy tantalum powder for example, its apparent density is greater than 3.7g/cm 3, oxygen content is lower than 1500ppm, and nitrogen content is lower than 100ppm, and hydrogen content is lower than 50ppm.If tantalum and/or niobium powder are for the production of electrolytic capacitor, we are referred to as tantalum and/or niobium powder for capacitor; Compare with powder used in metallurgy tantalum and/or niobium powder, capacitor by tantalum and/or niobium powder feature is: except the impurity contents such as apparent density, oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen are had requirement, the more important thing is and require to have good electric property.Conventionally capacitor is higher with the specific volume of tantalum and/or niobium powder, and specific area is larger, and apparent density is less, and the impurity contents such as oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen are higher.For example capacity is the tantalum powder for capacitor of 200,000 μ FV/g, and its apparent density is 1.5-1.9g/cm 3, oxygen content is 9,000-12,500ppm, and hydrogen content reaches 350-500ppm, and because production process must be carried out nitrating processing, nitrogen content will reach 1,500-2,800ppm conventionally.
In producing the process of capacitor with tantalum and/or niobium powder, there are a certain amount of waste product or substandard products in each operation of production line.Recycle these useless tantalums and/or niobium powder, the simplest method is using it as the raw material of producing tantalum and/or niobium compound, is made into the compound that production tantalum and/or niobium powder are used, and as potassium floutaramite, is then reused for the raw material of going back original production tantalum and/or niobium powder.But while recycling by this method the useless tantalum that produces in the production process of capacitor with tantalum and/or niobium powder and/or niobium powder, there is following problem: 1) first above-mentioned recovery method will dissolve useless tantalum and/or niobium powder with acid, this process produces a large amount of hydrogen, thereby hydrogen deflagration accident having very easily occurs, so production risk is high; 2) tantalum resource recycling rate is lower; 3) technological process is long, and production cost is higher, 4) the discharge three wastes are many, and environmental pollution is more serious.
If the useless tantalum producing in the production process by capacitor with tantalum and/or niobium powder and/or niobium powder are for the preparation of powder used in metallurgy tantalum and/or niobium powder, can reduce production risk and also greatly improve the utilization rate of tantalum and/or niobium, thereby save day by day poor tantalum and/or niobium resource and reduce costs, the pressure of environmental pollution is relatively light.Yet useless tantalum and/or the common apparent density of niobium powder that this class reclaims are little, and specific area is large, and oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen content are higher.Porosity can be too large when being pressed into base bar for such tantalum and/or niobium powder, and during sintering, a large amount of volatilizations of impurity can cause disconnected bar; Or impurity inner before the closing of pores does not fully volatilize, thereby be difficult to reach the object of purification, be unfavorable for next step processing.Especially at capacitor, use in high specific capacitance tantalum and/or niobium powder production process, in order to obtain higher specific volume, need to increase tantalum and/or niobium powder specific area; Therefore capacitor produces by high specific capacitance tantalum and/or niobium powder production process useless tantalum and/or niobium powder cause the more outstanding of the problems referred to above performance.For example, when tantalum powder specific area is greater than 1.5m 2after/g, reclaiming the useless tantalum powder obtaining may apparent density only have 0.9g/cm 3, and oxygen content may surpass 6,000ppm, and nitrogen content surpasses 300ppm, and hydrogen content also reaches 1500ppm; And work as specific area, be greater than 3.5m 2after/g, reclaiming the useless tantalum powder obtaining may apparent density only have 0.6g/cm 3, and oxygen content may surpass 14,000ppm, and nitrogen content surpasses 400ppm, and hydrogen content reaches 2500ppm or even higher.And niobium powder is along with specific area increases, apparent density down ratio is larger, and the impurity content increasing degrees such as oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen are higher.So reclaim the useless tantalum that produces in the production process of capacitor with tantalum and/or niobium powder and/or niobium powder and and then using it as powder used in metallurgy tantalum and/or during niobium powder, must carry out further processing processing.
Chinese patent application CN200610146912.5 discloses a kind of method that improves tantalum and/or niobium powder apparent density, reduction tantalum and/or niobium powder specific area, also reduces the impurity such as tantalum and/or niobium powder oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen simultaneously.The method comprises the following steps: 1) raw material tantalum and/or niobium powder raw material are pressed into base bar, 2) the base bar of vacuum-sintering compacting; 3) by sintered blank bar hydrogenation powder process; 4) add reducing agent to carry out deoxidation, dehydrogenation heat treatment the tantalum of hydrogenation and/or niobium powder; With 5) tantalum after deoxidation, dehydrogenation heat treatment and/or niobium powder are carried out to pickling, washing and oven dry.The method is suitable for processing specific area and is less than 1.0m 2/ g raw material tantalum and/or niobium powder.But work as raw material tantalum and/or niobium powder specific area and be greater than 1.0m 2during/g, will be very little (may be less than 1.0g/cm to the apparent density of described powder 3) and oxygen content is higher (may be higher than 6,000ppm).When being pressed into base bar, such tantalum and/or niobium powder easily there is following problem: thus tantalum and/or niobium powder and mould inner wall adhesion cause demoulding difficulty, so operating efficiency reduction and even cannot carry out the compacting of base bar; And the method press device used is complicated, so equipment investment is larger.
For specific area is greater than 1.0m 2/ g raw material tantalum and/or niobium powder can adapt to the open method of Chinese patent application CN200610146912.5 to be processed, and in prior art, the common processing method that reclaims useless tantalum and/or niobium powder is first to carry out the heat treatment of high temperature high vacuum powder process; After the tantalum obtaining and/or niobium powder are participated in to reducing agent, oxygen falls; Then carry out pickling, oven dry, screening, obtain specific area and be less than 1.0m 2/ g, oxygen content is lower than the tantalum powder of 4,000ppm.But along with capacitor is more and more higher with tantalum and/or niobium powder specific volume, there are useless tantalum to be recycled and/or niobium powder specific area more and more higher and active also more and more higher, such as useless tantalum and/or niobium powder specific area reclaiming are greater than 1.8m 2when/g is above, the agglomerate intensity after the heat treatment of high temperature high vacuum is too high, causes the broken difficulty of agglomerate, easily when fragmentation, rubs and catches fire, and causes fire.On the other hand, if reduce heat treatment temperature, agglomerate strength decreased, but tantalum powder activity is not effectively reduced; Therefore the passivation time after heat treatment is long especially, production efficiency of equipment is significantly reduced, and in subsequent treatment, involuntary ignition accident easily occurs tantalum powder; Even if missing of ignition, the tantalum powder after processing still has very little apparent density.In addition, when using low heat treatment temperature, tantalum powder specific area is still larger and active more intense, tantalum powder in processing, transportation, storage, use procedure, contact with air dielectric and with airborne oxygen, nitrogen, reaction of moisture, so in tantalum powder, the impurity such as oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen is still very high, can not reach the requirement of powder used in metallurgy tantalum and/or niobium powder.
In sum, reclaim and process capacitor and have following shortcoming with the useless tantalum producing in high specific capacitance tantalum and/or niobium powder production process and/or the prior art of niobium powder: (1) equipment complex structure, equipment investment are larger; (2) inefficiency; (3) process route is long, the tantalum powder rate of recovery is low, causes processing cost higher; (4) along with capacitor is more and more higher with tantalum and/or niobium powder specific volume, useless tantalum to be recycled and/or niobium powder specific area and activity are more and more higher, and prior art cannot effectively be processed it.The useless tantalum producing in the production process of partition capacitance device with high specific capacitance tantalum and/or niobium powder and/or niobium powder, by existing PROCESS FOR TREATMENT, not only can not obtain qualified powder used in metallurgy tantalum and/or niobium powder, may, due to tantalum and/or the spontaneous combustion of niobium powder, deflagration accident having occur.
Therefore, the needs of this area existence to the efficient and safe method of the useless tantalum producing in recovery high specific capacitance tantalum and/or niobium powder production process and/or niobium powder.
