Definitions
- the invention relates to a high-current electrode in particular for an electric arc furnace with a base body and a coating applied thereto.
- three electrodes are powered by a three-phase furnace transformer that delivers currents up to 100 kA at voltages up to about 2,000 volts.
- High-current electrodes are therefore understood to be electrodes in particular for such an application, in which the electrodes are supplied with currents in the at least two-digit kA range and in particular with currents up to more than 100 kA.
- the electrodes are exposed to extreme electrical, thermal and chemical stresses. Due to the high power input, the electrodes consume gradually. In order to maintain a stable arc, the electrodes are moved in and out in a regulated manner, ie the distance between the melt and the electrodes is regulated. In the case of unfavorable drive situations come to a demolition of the arc and / or a short-term immersion of the electrode in the molten metal ⁇ .
- the invention has for its object to provide an electrode with a long life and low burn-off.
- the object is according to the invention by a high ⁇ current electrode, in particular for an electric arc furnace with egg ⁇ nem basic body and a coating thereon, which comprises a conductive matrix and is embedded hard material ⁇ particles and in particular from this matrix with a ⁇ mounted hard materials composed.
- the basic body consists here in ⁇ preferably carbon / graphite, so that the base ⁇ body is substantially formed by A commercially available, uncoated graphite electrode.
- the additional coating which acts like a protective layer, the actual electrode bil ⁇ Dende base body before the high loads is protected, so that the lifetime of the entire electrode as compared to conventional, simple graphite electrode, is significantly increased. It has surprisingly been found that the A ⁇ binding of hard material particles in a conductive matrix, the Lifespan of an electrode significantly increased.
- the matrix here is clearly duk ⁇ tiler compared to the hard material particles, is therefore a relatively soft, especially me ⁇ on-metal material. This preferably has a Vickers hardness of at most about 180 to 230 HV o i.
- the embedded hard material particles have a significantly higher hardness, for example, they have a toughness and surface hardness increased by more than a factor of 2 than the material of the matrix.
- the coating has a sufficiently good electrical conductivity ⁇ ness, so that further high current flow over the E- is lektrode possible without resistor by an increased Wi additional thermal in the coating Loads occur.
- CNT particles Carbon Nano Tubes
- the carbon nanotubes are carbon nanotubes whose
- Diameter is typically less than 100 nm to we ⁇ Nigen nm.
- the walls of these tubular structures best ⁇ hen of carbon.
- the CNT particles consist of a multiplicity of such carbon nanotubes.
- the particular advantage of using CNT particles as hard Parti ⁇ kel is their very good electrical conductivity, high thermal conductivity and ih ⁇ rer in mechanical Wi ⁇ derstands melt. Due to the good electrical Leitfä ⁇ ability paired with the thermal conductivity, they have a very high current carrying capacity.
- hard particles may also be diamond particles, boron carbide particles, tungsten or tungsten carbide particles. These hard particles all lead to a significant improvement in the particular mechanical resistance of the coating.
- the CNT particles are preferred because of their superior Properties, in particular their very good electrical conductivity used.
- the proportion of the hard particles on the Be ⁇ coating is preferably in the range between about 10 and 40 vol.%.
- the hard material particles preferably have a size in the micrometer range, in particular from a few microns to
- hard particles in addition or exclusively in the nanoscale range, for example in the range from 10 to a few 100 nm.
- the electrically conductive matrix here preferably consists of copper or a copper alloy.
- the combination of copper or copper alloy with the hard material particles allows a coating with very good properties for the intended application.
- this pair consisting of copper and CNT particles to a very high elekt ⁇ generic as well as thermal conductivity.
- the coating provides effective protection against other stresses, so that overall the burning behavior and the wear of the electrode compared to conventional Gra ⁇ phitelektroden is significantly improved.
- the coating has a thickness of about up to a few mm, for example in the range between 1 and 3 mm.
- the layer thickness is based on the properties of the coating. , This example very good electrical ⁇ specific properties, it may as planned, be formed in the MII limeter area. Is a coating with a slightly lower electrical conductivity is selected, it is advantageous to keep the coating as thin as possible and at ⁇ play in the micrometer range (for example up to 50 ⁇ m) so as not to hinder the flow of current and not to increase the temperature load due to the increased resistance. Conversely, it is also possible to increase the layer thickness in the Ver ⁇ application of a coating with very good electrical and thermal conductivity and to apply, for example, a thickness of up to 10 mm.
- Such thick layers are in this case preferably applied with egg ⁇ nem spraying method, for example with a so-called cold gas spraying or a thermal spray processes such as flame spraying.
- a so-called cold gas spraying or a thermal spray processes such as flame spraying.
- the coating is applied electrolytically in a preferred embodiment. Both methods result in a good connection of the coating to the main body, so that chipping is prevented, even under extreme loads.

- FIG 2 is a cross-sectional view of an electrode for
