Description

The preparation method of rare earth metal
Technical field
The present invention relates to rare-earth technique fields, in particular to a kind of preparation method of rare earth metal.
Background technique
The traditional preparation methods of rare earth metal mainly have vacuum-thermal method and fused salt electrolysis process, and these preparation methods exist Energy consumption is high, seriously polluted, corrosivity is strong and equipment and relevant configuration require high characteristic, to limit it to prepare rare earth golden The application in category field.
Ionic liquid is used as extensively due to the excellent property such as low with fusing point, difficult volatilization and electrochemical properties stabilization Electrolyte in electrochemical process.It has been carried out extensively currently, being directed to both at home and abroad by the method for ionic liquid deposition of rare-earth metal General research.Domestic aspect, for example, application No. is the Chinese patents of ZL201110435737.2 to disclose one kind in ionic liquid The method of electrodepositing metal lanthanum, this method pass through in two (trimethyl fluoride sulfonyl) imines of ionic liquid 1- methyl -3- ethyl imidazol(e) Middle deposition has obtained lanthanoid metal, but such ionic liquid is expensive, while the deposition process must be in the gloves of argon atmosphere It is carried out in case.
For another example Zhai Yuchun team, Northeastern University in 2012 sends the documents for the first time reports La on Pt electrode at room temperature3+And Dy3+ In 1- ethyl -3- methyl-imidazoles tetrafluoroborate ([EMIM] BF4) electrochemical behavior (Jin Ping Xun, Xie Hong in ionic liquid It is big, dysprosium electro-deposition behavior [J] rare metal material in the .1- ethyl -3- methyl-imidazoles tetrafluoroborate ion liquid such as Zhai Yuchun Material and engineering .2012,41 (5): 881-884;The .La such as Jin Ping Xun, Xie Hongwei, Zhai Yuchun3+Ion is in EMIMBF4In ionic liquid Electrochemical behavior research [J] Rare Metals Materials and engineering .2012,41 (4): 599-602), and on this electrode successfully The sedimentary of lanthanum and dysprosium is arrived.But in this deposition process, lithium chloride solid need to be added as supporting electrolyte, and the solid exists It needs to be dried in adition process, simultaneously because what is be added is solid, easily causes the dissolution of raw material and additive difficult.
For another example the Liu Ruiquan of Xinjiang University teaches et al. and to have studied Ce (III) in [BMIM] PF6-EG-CeCl3In electricity Chemical behavior (Yushan Jiang Hasi wood [BMIM] PF6Electro-deposition behavioral study [D] crow of chromium, cerium, cobalt and ruthenium in ionic liquid Lu Muqi: Xinjiang University, 2013;Yushan Jiang Hasi is wooden, Liu Ruiquan, and the electro-deposition behavior of cerium, dilute in silver pink space ionic liquid Have metal, 2014,38 (3): 432-440), and the deposition of cerium is realized on copper surface.In the research of author, [BMIM] PF6- EG-CeCl3Electrolyte is prepared in glove box, and electrodeposition process also will be in an easy groove body for being similar to glove box Middle realization, while after adding ethylene glycol, it can largely deflate in electrodeposition process, will cause electric current and sharply decline, in sedimentation products Have a large amount of stomatas.
External aspect has studied rare earth metal electro-deposition since the nineties in last century, in ionic liquid and uses AlCl mostly3Type Ionic liquid (Tsuda T., Nohira T., Ito Y..Electrodeposition of Lanthanum in Lanthanum Chloride Saturated A1C13-1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Chloride Molten Salts [J] .Electrochimica Acta, 2001,46 (12): 1891-1897), due to AlCl3Type ionic liquid Body is extremely sensitive to the moisture in air, and there is a continuing need for vacuum or noble gas to protect for electrodeposition process, and this substance is to many Substance all has corrosivity, therefore uses simultaneously inconvenience, while being also unfavorable for large-scale production.
For another example Univ Manchester UK Bhatt etc. reports a series of [R4X][N(SO2CF3)2] (X=N, P, As) Ionic liquid is used for the higher metal of electro-deposition electro-chemical activity, and such as Li, Eu etc., they are investigated rare earth ion La3+、Sm3+ And Eu3+In [R4X][N(SO2CF3)2] electrochemical behavior (Bhatt A.I., May I., Volkovich in ionic liquid V.A.,et al.Structural Characterization of a Lanthanum Bistriflimide Complex, La(N(SO2CF3)2)3(H2O)3,and an Investigation of La,Sm,and Eu Electrochemistry in a Room-Temperature Ionic Liquid,[Me3NnBu][N(SO2CF3)2][J].Inorganic Chemistry, 2005,44(14):4934-4940).To La3+、Sm3+And Eu3+Electrochemical behavior research process in, observed rare earth Ion reduction is the peak of metal.But such ionic liquid is expensive, and deposition process is also complete in the glove box of argon gas protection At.
For another example the H.Kondo etc. of Japanese Yokohama national university in 2012 has studied in the double fluoroforms of 3- ethyl-pentyl phosphine Base sulfonyl amidic-salt is Nd in [P2225] [TFSA] ionic liquid3+Electrochemical behavior (Kondo H., Matsumiya M., Tsunashima K.,et al.Attempts to the electrodeposition of Nd from ionic Liquids at elevated temperatures [J], Electrochimica Acta, 2012, (66): 313-319), and The neodymium metal that partial size is 0.5~3 μm is obtained on copper electrode, content is about 48%, remaining ingredient is neodymia.But such from Sub- liquid is expensive, and deposition process will carry out at 150 DEG C.
In conclusion the existing method for preparing rare earth metal using ionic liquid has, at high cost, energy consumption is high, due to using Solid additives are cumbersome, while the disadvantages of to operate in glove box, to limit its industrial application.
