以人工合成的高纯度铟铁酸锌为研究对象,采用搅拌球磨对其进行机械活化。以锌的浸出率为评价指标,研究不同活化试样在硫酸溶液中的浸出特性和溶解动力学,并利用X射线衍射仪、扫描电镜、激光粒度分析仪和比表面积分析仪分别考察机械活化对铟铁酸锌晶体结构、颗粒形貌、粒度和比表面积的影响。结果表明:机械活化使铟铁酸锌的物化性质发生明显改变,并由此提高了铟铁酸锌的反应活性。经机械活化30和60 min后,铟铁酸锌与硫酸反应的表观活化能由未活化时的76.4 kJ/mol分别降至58.6和51.8 kJ/mol,表观反应级数也由原来的0.79分别降至0.62和0.59。未活化铟铁酸锌的酸溶过程受化学反应控制,活化后则为混合控制。
The synthetic indium-bearing zinc ferrite(IBZF) was mechanically activated by a stirring ball mill.The leaching behavior and dissolution kinetics of nonactivated as well as activated IBZF samples in sulphuric acid solution were investigated by using the zinc extraction as evaluating index.The influences of mechanical activation on the crystal structure,morphology,particle size and specific surface area were also characterized by means of X-ray diffractometer(XRD),scanning electron microscope(SEM),laser diffraction particle size analyzer and specific surface area analyzer.The results show that the physicochemical properties of IBZF are changed obviously by mechanical activation and thus enhance the reactivity of IBZF.When IBZF is mechanically activated for 30 and 60 min,the apparent activation energy decreases from 76.4 kJ/mol to 58.6 and 51.8 kJ/mol,respectively,the reaction order also decreases from 0.79 to 0.62 and 0.59.The acid leaching process of nonactivated IBZF is controlled by chemical reaction,but becomes the hybrid controlled process after mechanical activation.
