Hafnium introduction

In nature, hafnium often symbiosis with zirconium, contain hafnium in the mineral that contains zirconium, hafnium and zirconium show kind qualitative coimage, hafnium basically occurrence is in

Zircon. Zircons for industrial use contain 0.5-2% HfO2. The beryllium zircon in secondary zirconium ores can be high in HfO2 content

Up to 15%. There is also a metamorphic zircon called kojite, which contains more than 5% HfO2. The latter two minerals are scarce in industry

Adopted. Hafnium is recovered mainly from the production of zirconium.

The smelting of hafnium and zirconium is basically the same, generally divided into five steps. The first step is the decomposition of ore. There are three methods:

(1) Chlorination of zircon to (Zr,Hf)Cl4.

(2) Alkali fusion of zircon, when zircon melts with NaOH at 600℃, more than 90% of (Zr,Hf)O2 is converted to

Na2(Zr,Hf)O3, in which SiO2 becomes Na2SiO3 and is dissolved in water. Na2(Zr,Hf)O3 dissolved with HNO3 can be prepared

Zirconium hafnium separation of the original solution, but because of containing SiO2 colloid, to the solvent extraction separation caused difficulties.

(3) Sintered with K2SiF6, K2(Zr,Hf)F6 solution was obtained after water immersion. Zirconium and hafnium can be separated from the solution by fractional crystallization.

The second step is the separation of zirconium and hafnium, using hydrochloric acid -MIBK (methyl isobutylketone) system and HNO3-TBP(tributyl phosphate) system

Conventional solvent extraction separation method. Using the difference in vapor pressure between HfCl4 and ZrCl4 melts at high pressure (above 20 atmospheres)

The technology of multistage fractionation has been studied for a long time, which can save the second chlorination process and reduce the cost. But since (Zr, Hf)Cl4 and HCl

The corrosion problem of ZrCl4 and HfCl4 is not easy to find the appropriate fractionation column material, but also will reduce the quality of ZrCl4 and HfCl4, increase the purification cost

To use. The third step is secondary chlorination of HfO2 to prepare crude HfCl4 for reduction.

The fourth step is purification and magnesium reduction of HfCl4. This process is the same as the purification and reduction of ZrCl4, and the semi-finished product is

Hafnium sponge.

The fifth step is vacuum distillation of hafnium sponge to remove MgCl2 and recover excess metal magnesium, and the finished product is sponge metal

Hafnium. If the reducing agent is sodium instead of magnesium, the fifth step is water immersion.

The hafnium sponge must be taken with great care from the crucible to avoid spontaneous combustion. Chunks of hafnium are broken up into smaller pieces of a certain size,

In order to press into a consumable electrode, and then cast into ingots. Spontaneous combustion should also be prevented when crushing. Further purification of hafnium sponge as with titanium and zirconium,

Thermal decomposition of iodide was used. The control conditions are slightly different from those of zirconium, the small pieces of hafnium sponge around the iodized tank are kept at a temperature of

600℃, and the center of the hot wire temperature of 1600℃, than the zirconium "crystal bar" 1300℃ for higher. Hafnium processing into

It includes steps such as forging, extrusion and tube drawing, the same method used to process zirconium.

The main use of hafnium is to make control rods for nuclear reactors. Pure hafnium has plasticity, easy processing, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance,

It is an important material for atomic energy industry. Hafnium is an ideal neutron absorber with large thermal neutron capture cross section and can be used as atomic reactor

Control rods and protection devices. Hafnium powder can be used as propellers for rockets. Cathodes for X-ray tubes can be manufactured in the electrical industry. The hafnium

The alloy can be used for rocket nozzles and glider re-entry aircraft leading edge protection, hF-TA alloy for the manufacture of tool steel and

Resistance material. Hafnium is used as an added element in heat-resistant alloys, such as tungsten, molybdenum, tantalum, and some added hafnium in alloys. HfC because

High hardness and melting point, can be used as carbide additives. The melting point of 4TaC•HfC is about 4215℃, which is the highest known

Compounds.

Synthesis method

Usually with hafnium dioxide and carbon in inert or reducing atmosphere synthesis powder, reaction temperature 1900-2300℃, with hot pressing sintering method or hot isostatic pressing method to produce high density ceramic dessert.
