Sintering of electrode paste in submerged arc furnace of manganese-silicon alloy

The electrode is the only channel for the electric furnace to input electric energy, and it can also be said to be the heart of the electric furnace. Therefore, making the electrode have good working conditions is the key to the successful opening of the furnace. Large-scale submerged arc furnaces generally use self-baking electrodes. Self-baking electrodes use anthracite, pitch, etc. as raw materials to make electrode paste at a certain temperature, and then put the electrode paste into the installed electrode shell and then sinter and coke. . Therefore, to make a reasonable oven system, it is necessary to understand the sintering characteristics of the electrode paste. Sintering process of Rongxin carbon electrode paste self-baking electrode The self-baking electrode sintering process is a process in which the binder decomposes and gradually discharges volatiles as the temperature increases. The sintering of the electrode can be roughly divided into three stages. The first stage: the temperature rises from outdoor air temperature to 200°, and the electrode paste melts from lumps to all liquid; the second stage: the temperature rises from 200° to 600°, during which all the binders in the electrode paste begin to decompose and gas The volatile matter is discharged, especially at about 400°. The electrode paste gradually changes from a plastic state to a solid state; the third stage: the temperature rises from 600° to 800°, and a small amount of volatile matter continues to be discharged. After a certain period of time, The electrode sintering is over. The volatiles of Rongxin Carbon Electrode Paste are discharged from two locations: as the binder is thermally decomposed, the volatiles are discharged, the volume expands and contracts, and the volatiles are discharged along the gap between the electrode and the electrode shell; vaporization The components with lower temperature escape from the upper mouth of the electrode shell.

Study on impurities in high purity flake graphite

Image
 　　For the analysis of trace impurities in high-purity flake graphite, the sample is usually pre ashed or wet digested to remove carbon, the ash is dissolved with acid, and then the impurity content in the solution is determined. The ashing method does not need to use ultra pure acid to dissolve the ash, thus avoiding the risk of introducing the elements to be measured, so it is used more. It is also very difficult to detect the ash content of high-purity flake graphite, because the enriched ash needs to be burned at high temperature, and it is difficult to separate the ash from the sample boat at high temperature, which makes it impossible to accurately determine the composition and content of impurities. 　　The existing methods all take advantage of the characteristic that the platinum crucible does not react with acid, use the platinum crucible to burn the high-purity flake graphite to enrich ash, and then directly heat the sample in the crucible with acid to dissolve th

General technical index requirements for electrode paste

Image
 Electrode occupies an important position in submerged arc furnace. The working conditions of the electrode are bad, the current passing through is high, the temperature difference between the two ends is large, and the production is affected by the impact of mechanical, electrical and charge collapse... Mechanical strength, higher electrical resistivity, better thermal shock resistance, oxidation resistance and smaller thermal expansion coefficient. Generally speaking, the quality of electrode paste is controlled by the following five indicators: 1. Ash: Ash is the residue of electrode paste when it is burnt to constant weight at 850℃-870℃. It belongs to inorganic minerals. It has high ash resistivity, poor strength, high power consumption, and large electrode consumption. In the event of a hard breaking accident, the ash content is a very important indicator, and the lower the better. 2. Volatile matter: Volatile matter refers to the mass loss of electrode paste under the condition o

Performance characteristics of anthracite electrode paste

 Anthracite is the main raw material of electrode paste. The performance of anthracite is related to the performance of electrode paste. Therefore, it is necessary to understand and discuss the performance of anthracite to ensure the quality of electrode paste. Anthracite coal in China is mainly distributed in Shanxi, Ningxia and Guizhou. Shanxi is the origin of anthracite, which is mainly produced in Yangquan and Jincheng. Anthracite is an indispensable raw material for carbon industry. It is mainly used in semi graphite cathode carbon block, electric furnace carbon block, blast furnace carbon block, carbon electrode and various pastes. Studying and discussing various properties of anthracite is very beneficial to improve the quality of carbon products.
