  • 摘要: 利用化学反应动力学模拟技术,研究了不同含水率条件下铝粉、镁粉、铝镁合金粉遇湿产生以氢气为代表的主要痕迹气体产物的规律及反应动力学机理,着重对比分析了4种粉尘遇湿的温度压力、温度敏感性、产氢特性规律、关键自由基变化规律. 结果表明,金属粉尘与水混合可发生剧烈的放热反应. 镁粉遇湿较铝粉温度及压力升高速度慢,铝镁合金遇湿的反应温度、压力低于纯铝,且铝镁合金粉(铝含量90%,镁含量10%)的温度/压力峰值高于铝镁合金粉(铝镁含量各50%). 铝、镁及其合金粉尘遇湿反应阶段,升温关键基元反应以与O2、H2O反应为主. 铝粉在含水率为50%(质量分数)条件下的单位质量内产氢量最大,铝镁合金的反应活性受比例结构影响明显,Mg粉产率最小且产氢速率最慢. 研究结果为危险易燃金属遇湿自燃及爆炸事故的精准防控提供理论依据.

     

    Abstract: Using chemical reaction kinetics simulation techniques, this study investigated the generation behavior and reaction kinetics of hydrogen produced from aluminum powder, magnesium powder, and Al-Mg alloy powders under conditions of varying moisture content. A comparative analysis was conducted on the temperature and pressure evolution, thermal sensitivity, hydrogen production characteristics, and key radical transformation patterns across four types of metal powders. The results show that metal dusts can underwent intense exothermic reactions in the presence of water. Compared to Al powder, Mg powder exhibited slower increases in both temperature and pressure upon moisture exposure. The reaction temperature and pressure of Al-Mg alloy powders were lower than those of Al powders, with the alloy containing 90% Al and 10% Mg exhibiting higher peak temperature and pressure than the alloy containing equal amounts of Al and Mg. During the moisture-induced reaction stage of Al, Mg, and Al-Mg alloys, the key elementary steps contributing to temperature rise primarily involved reactions with O2 and H2O. Al powder demonstrated the highest hydrogen generation capability at 50% moisture content, while Mg powder had the lowest hydrogen production rate and slowest rate of increase. The reactivity of Al-Mg alloys was significantly influenced by their compositional ratio. These findings can provide theoretical support for the precise prevention and control of spontaneous combustion and explosion accidents involving moisture-reactive and flammable metals.
