Abstract
Copper metal powder is produced from aqueous solutions or slurries containing salts of copper with salts of nickel and/or cobalt by reducing with a sulphur free reducing gas at elevated temperature and pressure, the method characterized by precipitating all the copper from a first batch of solution, some cobalt and nickel coating the copper particles, heating the precipitate in a second batch of solution between 90 DEG C. and the temperature at which the reduction is carried out so as to redissolve cobalt and nickel, again reducing until the solution is substantially depleted of dissolved copper, the reduction being thus carried out in a cyclic series of reducing steps in which the precipitate from the previous reduction is heated in fresh solution which is then reduced and discharged, and the precipitate therefrom carried forward to the suceeding reduction, until a final step in which the reduction of copper is left incomplete so that nickel and cobalt are not precipitated and the copper powder of high purity separated from the liquid. The last solution from which copper has not been completely removed may be passed to a succeeding cycle of reducing reactions. The fresh solution subjected to the reducing reaction contains at least 1.9 gram mols of free ammonia per gram atom of copper plus nickel and cobalt. A preferred temperature range is 120-270 DEG C. and a partial pressure of reducing gas from 13 to 26 atmospheres.
