Abstract

Language:

This paper is concerned with studying the effect of electrolyte characteristics on the production process of electrolytic copper powder from partially depleted Cu containing synthetic electrolytes by electrowinning technique. The main electrolyte characteristics are temperature, circulation rate, Cu and H2SO4 concentrations, residence time in the cell, and utilization of organic bath additives. The process is positively affected by increasing the values of all of the studied parameters except for the addition of organic bath additives, which causes a negative effect. However, the addition of organic bath additives remarkably increases the degree of refinement of the produced powders. In most cases pure and fine copper powders were obtained with a dendritic shape, as indicated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis.
