Abstract
The invention relates to an impurity removal method belonging to the field of alloy materials, particularly a method for purifying industrial silicon by synchronously electroslag remelting and alloy liquation refining. The method mainly comprises the following steps: (1) premelting industrial silicon and a metal liquation agent into an alloy, and making a consumable alloy electrode; (2) in an electroslag furnace, melting a slag melting agent into a slag basin by using an arc starting agent, overheating the slag basin, and immersing the consumable alloy electrode into the slag basin to perform electroslag remelting refining and alloy segregation refining; and (3) after finishing the refining and solidifying, obtaining a segregation alloy cast ingot, crushing and separating to obtain the purified polycrystalline silicon. Compared with the traditional metallurgical process, the method has the advantages of obviously higher impurity removal efficiency, short process and simple equipment, and is convenient to operate; and the refined material has the advantages of higher purity, fewer impurities, and uniform and compact chemical component and structure. In the electroslag remelting process, liquid slag protection always exists, thereby preventing the liquid alloy from directly contacting air, and preventing the oxidation loss of the silicon and metal liquation agent.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of field of alloy material and go deimpurity method, particularly the method for a kind of esr purifying industrial silicon synchronous with alloy liquation refining.
Background technology
Along with the available rate of the price of international energy continuous rise, the energy and security continuous decrease and various countries are to the raising of environmental concern degree, sun power is because it is inexhaustible, nexhaustible, safe and reliable and the feature little to environmental influence more and more receives the concern of people.In recent years, theCourse of PV Industry is rapid, sharply increases the demand of solar-grade polysilicon.But prepare solar-grade polysilicon technique due to chemical methods such as improved Siemens and have that energy consumption is high, cost is large and the problem such as environmental pollution is serious, metallurgy method prepares the focus that solar-grade polysilicon technology becomes concern.
Metallurgy method refers under the prerequisite not changing body silicon character, removing impurity in industrial silicon by directional freeze, pickling, slag refining, vacuum metling, a series of combined method such as high energy beam (electronics, ion) method, alloy liquation refining etc., is a kind of purification process step by step to impurity.Slag refining is the means effectively removing strong reducing property impurity, is one of main purification means of metallurgy method, and the removal effect of the method to nonmetallic impurity boron main in industrial silicon, phosphorus is undesirable.Boron, phosphorus affect the topmost impurity of solar cell properties, the requirement of solar-grade polysilicon to the content of B impurity is lower than 0.3 ppmw, be lower than 0.5 ppmw to the requirement of phosphorus, excessive B, P impurity can cause photo attenuation, thus affects the electricity conversion of battery.The refinery systems of traditional metallurgy method technical process also neither one complete mature, and because its long flow path, energy consumption are high and can not the problem such as continuous refining, application is industrially greatly limited.So, set up short route, high efficiency silicon materials purification process enhancement method is extremely urgent.
Esr is a kind of more special slag refinery practice, be utilize electric current by the resistance heat that produces during slag as thermal source by electrode melting, the metal dissolved pools and drips, and enters metal pool, be frozen into the method for foundry goods in water mold through slag blanket.Its method has been coupled the multiple purification effect of slag refining, wash heat and solidifying segregation, can strengthen aluminium alloy and the contact area of slag phase greatly, reach reinforcing mass transfer, improve refining efficiency, strengthen the effect of refining effect.This technique is very ripe in smelting iron and steel, and in the patent electroslag remelting slag of Baoshan Iron & Steel Co., Ltd and application (2011101247192) thereof, providing slag system proportioning is CaF230 ~ 35%; CaO 30 ~ 35%; Al
2o
325 ~ 30%; SiO
21 ~ 4%; MgO 1 ~ 5%, this method reduces hot-work die steel esr power consumption, and solves the stability problem of esr cinder high-temperature process.Meanwhile, in the refining of metal such as copper, aluminium, magnesium, technology and equipment R&D work has also been carried out both at home and abroad.Central Plains special steel bear length is poly-, the patent of Gao Hongsheng: a kind of copper electroslag remelting process (2008101404897), adopts 55-65%CaF
2, 15-25%MgF
2or NaF, 15-25%BaCl
2the slag system refining formed obtains the higher copper ingot of quality.But because the specific conductivity of silicon is less by (2.52 × 10
-4/ m Ω), electroconductibility extreme difference at normal temperatures, can not use as consumable electrode.So, there is larger bottleneck by the technology of refining by electro-slag remelting metalluragical silicon.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, provide the method for a kind of esr purifying industrial silicon synchronous with alloy liquation refining, solve not by the technical barrier of electroslag remelting process refining polysilicon, significantly promote refining effect.
The production method principle of esr of the present invention purifying polycrystalline silicon synchronous with alloy liquation refining is: first industrial silicon and metal liquate agent High Temperature Pre are melt into alloy and as consumable electrode, slag is made to be fused into slag bath by the effect of striking agent, after slag bath is overheated, consumable electrode is immersed in slag bath, carry out esr refining and segregation refining.
Specific implementation step is as follows:
1) industrial silicon and the agent of metal liquate are melt into alloy in advance and make consumable electrode;
2) by metal oxide or metal fused salt all mixed, slag forming agent is prepared in fritting;
3) in electroslag furnace, utilize striking agent to make slag be fused into slag bath, after slag bath is overheated, consumable alloy electrode is immersed in slag bath, carry out esr refining and segregation refining;
4) refining with solidify end, obtain segregation-alloy ingot casting, through broken apart, obtain the polysilicon of purifying.
Step 1) described in the agent of metal liquate be Sn, Al, Cu, Fe, Ni, Zn, or its two or more alloy cpd;
Step 1) described in the purity of metal liquate agent be 99% ~ 99.999%;
