Abstract
The problem in the large-scale industrialization for aluminum electrolysis is the corrosion resistance of cermet inert anodes in high temperature molten salts. In this paper, the ion structure of NiFe2O4-10NiO-based cermet anode composition in the electrolyte was investigated. The experiment results show that Al-F and Al-O-F complex ion structures are produced at room temperature and perhaps Me-F (Me=Ni, Cu, Fe), Me-O-F or Me-Al-O-F are also formed. Moreover, Al-F and Al-O-F ion structures exist from room temperature to 700 °C and from 1050 °C to 1200 °C; In the rearrangement and melting process of molten salt at 800 °C -1000 °C, the ionic structures are mainly Al-O-F ions; Me-F and Me-O-F ion structures were not found at high temperature, this indicates that Al in Al-O-F complex ion structures is partially replaced by Fe, Ni or Cu to form MexAlaOyFz(z+2y-2x-3a)-.
