Effect of Solidification Rate of Copper Anodes on the Chemical and Electrochemical Dissolution during Electrorefining
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Yoozbashizadeh, Hossein (Supervisor)
Abstract
In the present work,the effect of solidification rate on the electrochemical behavior of copperanodes of Sarcheshmeh copper complex has been studied.Inthis regard, three cylindrical coppers pecimens with different solidificationrates casted into water-cooled metal mold (A specimen), metal mold (B specimen) and sand mold (C specimen). Cylinders for microstructural and electrochemical investigation, alongthickness dividedinto several specimens. To investigate themicrostructure of the specimens, opticalmicroscopyand scanning electron microscopy(SEM)were used. ICP testhasbeen usedforelemental analysis of each specimen; and eventuallytoinvestigate theelectrochemical behavior ofeach of...
