Invention can be used during manufacturing of the bath for galvanic production with work electrolytes having neutral, alkali and acid environment working at temperature from -30 to +30°C, and washing baths of galvanic production, tanks for corrosive liquids and wastes drainage, storage and recycling. The method includes formation of the internal protective coating on the metal housing. The protective coating is made by PVC tape with adhesive layer installation on the internal bath surface, the adhesive layer is composition out of PVC resin and plastifier. At that initially tape is installed on the welds of the bath casing, on them preliminary glue BF-4 is applied with addition of the protector filler in amount of 25-30 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the glue, at that ultrafine zinc is used as the protector filler, the PVC tape is applied with adhesive layer over the entire bath surface overlapping joints of the previous layers by the successive tape layers.

Method of utilisation of heat of anode gases of the aluminium electrolyser includes burning of anode gases in the burner device of the electrolyser and supply of combustion gases into the heat exchanger, supply of alumina by countercurrent into tube space, its holding within 10-12 hours for heating by heat of combustion gases up to the temperature 200-250°C with the subsequent cycle repetition. The device contains a heat exchanger installed between two adjacent electrolysers, implemented inclined with reference to them, which contains 40-50 pipes with the outer diameter 50 mm for direct transfer of heat of combustion gases to alumina, with the outer diameter 800±50 mm, and the heat exchange area 15-20 m2, and fitted with lateral inclined pipelines for supply of alumina into the electrolyser.

Electroplasma method of producing of nanoparticles with pre-set size

Electroplasma method of producing of nanoparticles with pre-set size

Invention relates to powder metallurgy. The method of producing of nanodimensional particles includes electroplasma processing of surface of electrolyte in the form of salt solution containing induced ions of metals or semiconductors with formation of particles with pre-set size from them. Electroplasma processing of surface of electrolyte is performed using of the charger with voltage to 30 kV feeding the capacitor battery with the capacity (1,02…75)·10-10 F, the anode implemented as a ring and placed with a gap 2-4 mm over the electrolyte surface and the cathode located in the middle of the named ring without immersion into electrolyte. Processing is conducted with providing of radial movement of the spark discharge along the electrolyte surface, recovery of induced ions to neutral state of atoms and their agglomeration into nanodimensional particles of metals or semiconductors the change of size of which is pre-set by change of parameters of capacity of the capacitor bank and concentration of salt solution of electrolyte.

Method of production of zinc based composite coatings

Method of production of zinc based composite coatings

Invention relates to electroplating, and can be used in various industrial spheres, in particular in machine building, production of coins, flatware, road fences and other products subjected to abrasion, corrosion and erosion. The method includes electrochemical deposition from zincate electrolyte, containing solid particles of ultrafine diamonds in amount of 10.0-15.0 g/l, at that the electrolyte contains the solid particles of ultrafine diamonds with size 0.0005÷0.0009 micron and with specific surface 250-550 m2/g, at that zincate electrolyte is used as electrolyte to which surface-active substance in amount of 0.2-3.0 g/l is added.

Electrolytic production of fine dispersed silver powders

Electrolytic production of fine dispersed silver powders

Fine silver powder is produced by electrolysis of silver nitrate solution with concentration of silver of 15-60 g/dm3 and free nitric acid of 5-20 g/dm3 at constant current density of 1.5-2.0 A/dm2. Titanium rods are used as cathodes while silver plates make anodes.
