Description

Method for purifying refined scandium oxide
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of metal processing, and particularly relates to a method for purifying refined scandium oxide.
Background
Scandium oxide, as one of the more important products in scandium products, can be used for producing metal scandium, different scandium salts and various scandium alloys. However, the coarse scandium oxide contains a large amount of impurities such as titanium, zirconium, rare earth elements, iron, etc., and if the coarse scandium oxide is directly used, the performance of subsequent products is deteriorated. Therefore, the crude scandium oxide needs to be purified. The refined scandium oxide generally refers to national standard 3N scandium oxide and national standard 4N scandium oxide, especially to national standard 4N scandium oxide, and is a mainstream product in the market of the refined scandium oxide at present. The traditional method for purifying coarse scandium oxide to fine scandium oxide simply needs to use pure hydrochloric acid for dissolution, and adopts substances such as N235, P350 and the like to remove impurities in sequence, so that high-purity scandium oxide is obtained.
