Definitions

  • Aluminum metal has been produced for 90 years in the Hall cell by electrolysis of alumina in a molten cryolite salt electrolyte bath operating at temperatures in the range of 900o-1000oC.
  • the reactivity of the molten cryolite, the need for excellent electrical conductivity, and cost considerations have limited the choice of materials for the electrodes and cell walls to the various allotropic forms of carbon.
  • the Hall cell is a shallow vessel, with the floor forming the cathode, the side walls being a rammed coke-pitch mixture, and the anode being a block suspended in the bath at an anode-cathode separation of a few centimeters.
  • the anode is typically formed from a pitch-calcined petroleum coke blend, prebaked to form a monolithic block of amorphous carbon.
  • the cathode is typically formed from a pre-baked, pitch-calcined anthracite or coke blend, with cast-in-place iron over steel bar electrical conductors in grooves in the bottom side of the cathode.
  • the ancde-cathode spacing is usually about 4-5 cm., and attempts to lower this distance result in an electrical discharge from the cathode to the anode through aluminum droplets suspended in the bath.
  • the molten aluminum is present as a pad in the cell, but is not a quiescent pool due to the factors of preferential wetting of the carbon cathode surface by the cryolite melt in relation to the molten aluminum, causing the aluminum to form droplets, and the erratic movements of the molten aluzd-num from the strong electromagnetic forces generated by the high current density.
  • the wetting of a solid surface in contact with two immiscible liquids is a function of the surface free energy of the three surfaces, in which the carbon cathode is a low energy surface and consequently is not readily wet by the liquid aluminum.
  • the angle of a droplet of aluminum at the cryolite-aluminum-carbon junction is governed by the relationship where ⁇ 12 , ⁇ 13 , and ⁇ 23 are the surface free energies at the aluminum carbon, cryolite-carbon, and cryolite-aluminu ⁇ a boundaries, respectively.
  • the cathode were a high energy surface, such as would occur if it were a ceramic instead of carbon, it would have a higher contact angle and better wettability with the liquid aluminum. This in turn would tend to smooth out the surface of the liquid aluminum pool and lessen the possibility of interelectrode discharge allowing the anode-cathode distance to be lowered and the thermodynamic efficiency of the cell improved, by decreasing the voltage drop through the bath.
  • amorphous carbon is a low energy surface, but also is quite durable, lasting for several years duration as a cathode, and relatively inexpensive.
  • a cathode or a cathode component such as a TiB 2 stud which has better wettability and would permit closer anode-cathode spacing could improve the thermodynamic efficiency and be very cost-effective.
  • Titanium Diboride TiB 2 has been proposed for use as a cathodic element in Hall cells, giving an improved performance oyer the amorphous carbon and semi-graphite cathodes presently used. It had previously been known that Titanium Diboride (TiB 2 ) was useful as a cathode component in the electrolytic production of aluminum, when retrofitted in the Hall cell as a replacement for the carbon or semi-graphite form.
  • the electrical efficiency of the cell was improved due to better conductivity, due mainly to a closer anodecathode spacing; and the corrosion resistance was improyed, probably due to increased hardness, chemical inertness and lower solubility as compared to the carbon and graphite fonts.
  • TiB 2 -carbon composite which shows excellent performance as a cathode or cathode component in Hall aluminum cells.
  • the method is markedly more economical, and also produces an unexpectedly improved cathode when its performance is compared to the traditional carbonaceous material.
  • the method involyes the use of a titania (TiO 2 ) -graphite composite structure as a starting material. TiO 2 is dispersed in the mixture of coke particles and flour, then wetted and dispersed in a carbonizable liquid binder to form a plastic mass.
  • the baked carbon-TiO 2 composite shape produced is a structure containing TiO 2 and particulate carbon firmly bound in the matrix of carbonized pitch.
  • the structure is highly porous due to the inherent porosity of the coke, incomplete packing, and the volatilization of about 30-40% of the initial weight of the pitch, and is specially formulated for high porosity.
  • the baked composite shape is then impregnated in a pressure vessel under alternate cycles of vacuum and about 7 x 10 3 Pa (100 PSI) pressure with a boron compound alor.e or with a dispersion of B 2 O 3 and carbon black or other micronized carbon in H 2 O.
  • a boron compound alor.e or with a dispersion of B 2 O 3 and carbon black or other micronized carbon in H 2 O Either B 2 O 3 or H 3 BO 3 may be used as B 2 O 3 is hydrolyzec to H 3 BO 3 in H 2 O by the reaction:
  • the article may be impregnated with molten B 2 O 3 or boric acid or with a oarbcn black dispersion in a molten boron compound.
  • a further modificaticn of the above procedure consists of mixing stoichiometric amounts of TiO 2 , carbon black and B 2 O 3 , heating the mixture to melt the B 2 O 3 , dispersing the TiO 2 and carbon in the molten B 2 O 3 , cooling, allowing the paste to harden to a solid, milling the solid to a powder, dispersing the powder in a binder, then using this dispersion as an impregnant.
  • the boron compound ana carbon black may be dispersed in a molten pitch or other carbonizable binder such as a petroleum pitch with a 110o- 120°C softening point, and the resulting dispersion used as an impregnant.
  • a molten pitch or other carbonizable binder such as a petroleum pitch with a 110o- 120°C softening point
  • Each impregnating cycle will nomally require a bake to the 700o-1100oC range, carbonizing the binder.
  • the process may also be used by mixing boron carbide (B 4 C) with coke particles and binder in the initial mix, baking, then impregnating the resulting baked piece with a TiO 2 -carbon black dispersion in a carbonizable binder.
  • B 4 C boron carbide
  • the unique aspect of the process provides a method whereby TiB 2 is formed during subsequent heat treatment to a temperature above 2000oC, while the carbon is being made graphitic.
  • the carbon black or similar finely divided carbon acts as the reductant to minimize consumption of the article matrix during the reaction of TiO 2 and B 2 O 3 to form TiB 2 .
  • the article After drying, the article is heated to the reaction temperature for the formation of TiB 2 , in the range of 1200o-1800oC.
  • the reaction starts to take place at about 800oC but is quite slow below 1200oC and reaches a high reaction rate at about 1750oC.
  • the heat treatment may be done in stages, with re-impregnation and reheating cycles to build up the desired concentration of TiB 2 . Due to the loss of the carbon black ana possibly a portion of the binder and coke as CO during the TiB 2 forming reaction, the article may develop excess porosity and consequently have low strength and be poor in other physical properties.
  • the last step in the process will generally include heating the article to 2000oC or higher, converting the carbon to the graphitic form.
  • the temperature range preferred is about 2400o- 2500oC, although for particular processes any point in the 2000o- 3000o range may be used.
  • a cathode shape is made by mixing coke particles with a mean diameter of 3 mm, coal tar pitch having a softening point of approximately 110o-120oC and TiO 2 in a high-shear heated mixer. The mix is heated to approximately 175 oand the coke and TiO 2 are well dispersed in the molten pitch.

The piece is next heated to 1500oC, at which temperature the TiO 2 and B 2 O 3 react, releasing CO. These gas-producing steps are carried out slowly in order to avoid fissuring due to too rapid gas evolution.
  • the piece is then re-impregnated, using a petroleum pitch with a softening point of from 110o-120oC, baked to carbonize the pitch on a six day cycle, the temperature rising to 720oC, which fills the porosity left by theTiB 2 forming reaction, then graphitized by heating to 2400oC.
