Abstract:
The elements of vanadium-titanium iron concentrate were selectively leached by hydrochloric acid at atmospheric pressure,and the effects of liquid-solid ratio,leaching temperature and time,and hydrochloric acid concentration on the leaching rate of iron and titanium dioxide （TiO₂） were studied. Furthermore,the microstructure,morphology,size and elements distribution of the leaching residue were also investigated. The results show that the magnetite phase is destroyed by hydrochloric acid leaching and obvious pulverization is discovered on the surface of leaching residue,with Fe entering into the leaching solution. However,the ilmenite phase has not been destroyed and still exists in the leaching residue. The optimal leaching conditions are as follows: 18.6% of hydrochloric acid concentration,leaching at 85 ℃ for 60 min,and 9:1 of liquid-solid ratio.At the optimal conditions,the leaching ratio of Fe and TiO₂ are 85.41% and 7.22%,respectively. The yield of leaching residue is 27% and the grade of TiO₂ in the leaching residue is about 34%.

Abstract(28) PDF(2)

Abstract:
The experiments of refining titanium tetrachloride using different fatty acids were carried out,and the samples of purified titanium tetrachloride and tailing slag for vanadium removal were analyzed.The results show that with saturated fatty acids as reagent the vanadium removal efficiency is lower and the tailing slag has an excellent dispersibility. In addition,the length of carbon chain of saturated fatty acids scarcely affects the vanadium removal efficiency. The efficiency of vanadium removal by unsaturated fatty acids owning the same carbon chain length with saturated fatty acids,is more higher than that of saturated fatty acids,while the slurry for vanadium removal is more viscous and prone to agglomeration. Using mixed fatty acids as the reagent can not only guarantee the vanadium removal efficiency but also obtain the tailing slag with excellent dispersibility.

Abstract(34) PDF(3)

Abstract:
Based on the cold model of low-temperature chlorination furnace for Pangang titanium-bearing blast furnace slag,the conductivity method was employed to research the pulse tracer particles,and the effects of internal baffles,feed rate and apparent gas velocity on the particles Residence Time Distribution （RTD） in the low-temperature chlorination furnace were investigated. The results show that the baffles lengthwise separate the internal space of the furnace to eliminate short circuits,which is beneficial to efficiently mixing between the particles and fluidized gas. The RTD of carbonized slag in the furnace is more concentrated with double baffles （variance σ_t² reduces to 0.50 from 0.67）. When the feed rate decreases from 1.9 to 1.1 g/s the average residence time of the material doubles and the reaction time of carbonized slag increases. With the apparent gas velocity increased to 0.15 m/s,the concentricity of RTD for carbonized slag is weaken to some extent,but the contact and reaction between the particles and gas is enhanced by back-mixing which insures the fluidization conditions of the materials and is in favor of improving the chlorination efficiency of carbonized slag.

Abstract:
The influence of sand milling times on the quality of titanium dioxide （TiO₂） initial product was investigated by horizontal sand mill,using roll milling TiO₂ product as raw material and zirconia beads with different sizes as grinding media. The results show that with increase of sand milling times the pH and viscosity of the slurry are not changed substantially,particle size D₅₀ decreases and the ratio of particles with size ≤1 μm increases gradually. Meanwhile,the length-diameter value of particles in the slurry decreases slowly with the degree of sphericity gradually improved,the quantity and size of the aggregates decreased,and the value of whiteness L and brightness for the obtained TiO₂ increased step by step. TiO₂ initial product with more uniform size distribution,higher value of whiteness and brightness can be obtained using 0.4mm zirconia beads,compared with those of the product prepared by 0.6 mm and 1.8 mm zirconia beads.

Abstract(21) PDF(1)

Abstract:
The Li₄Ti₅O₁₂/C （LTO/C） composite with excellent rate performances was synthesized via a facile hydrolysis reaction followed by a low temperature heat treatment. In the hydrolysis process,the introduction of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide （CTAB） as a surfactant can significantly improve the rate performances of Li₄Ti₅O₁₂/C composite as anode material for lithium ion battery （LIB）. The specific capacities of the obtained composite at charge and discharge rates of 0.5,1,2,5 and 10 C were respectively 162,154,121,80 and 60 m Ah/g,which was apparently larger than those of the Li₄Ti₅O₁₂/C by physical mixing processes. The Li₄Ti₅O₁₂/C prepared with CTAB also showed excellent cycling stability at high rate,attributed to its larger diffusion coefficient of lithium ion （8.97 × 10^-13cm²/s）,smaller charge-transfer resistance Rct （35.2 Ω） and volume resistance Rs （6.8 Ω） than those of the composite by physical mixing. Therefore,this study has important theory significance and practical application value.

Abstract:
Mo₂C is normally added to improve the wettability between Ti （C,N） and Ni in Ti （C,N）-based cermets. Due to the increasing price of Mo₂C,much attention has been paid to Ti （C,N）-based cermets with WC addition. In this paper,the effect of WC powder size on the microstructure and properties of Ti(C_0.7N_0.3)-15% WC-15% Ni cermets free of Mo₂C was studied. The experimental results show that the cermet with smaller size of WC powder addition presents a white core and grey rim structure,and the grains have smaller size （average grain size is below 2 μm） and a uniform size distribution. Furthermore,the ultra-fine WC powder can not only raise its own dissolution rate but also that of Ti （C,N）. Although the ultra-fine WC powder can increase the hardness of the cermet,it makes the fracture toughness of the cermet have a reduction.

Abstract(13) PDF(1)

Abstract:
In order to achieve the high-efficiency recovery of titanium component in the titanium-blast furnace slag,the slag had been modified in terms of its chemical compositions and treated through the process of high temperature selective precipitation. The maximum crystal size and quantity of the resulted pervoskte was 63.17 μm and 30.62%,respectively. Based on the previous results,the study on the flotation of the modified slag had been carried out,including the effect of OHA dosage and sodium silicate dosage. It is found out that the OHA dosage and sodium silicate dosage do not affect the flotation obviously.SEM and EDX analysis show that the CaSO₄ micro-precipitate covers the surfaces of the minerals,which decreases the effect of OHA and sodium silicate. Therefore,the effective surface treatment agents should be developed to preprocess the modified slag prior to flotation separation.

Abstract(8) PDF(1)

Abstract:
The mineral structure of blast furnace slag with different mass percent of TiO₂ （7%~16%）was studied by means of polarization microscope. The results indicate that the microstructure of blast furnace slag is mainly porphyritic or porphyritic-like texture. Phenocryst minerals mainly consist of the rich titanium diopside and melilite,and its matrix is composed by glass,titanaugite,perovskite,and a small amount of metallic iron,titanium nitride,titanium carbide and their solid solution. As the mass percent of TiO₂ increases,the content of the rich titanium diopside and titanaugite reduces first and then increases,while the content of the melilite increases first and then decreases. When the mass percent of TiO₂ reaches to 12%,the content of titanium nitride,titanium carbide and their solid solution increases. These highmelting point compounds resulted in higher viscosity and melting temperature of blast furnace slag,and the liquidity of blast furnace slag also became worse.

Abstract(11) PDF(1)

Abstract:
By means of T[O] and [N]measurement,metallographic observation and sample-electrolyzing,the cleanness of normal slabs and unsteady cast slabs of IF steel produced in a plant had been compared. Normal slabs have very high cleanness,where the w（T[O]） is 11 × 10^-6,w（N） is 18 × 10^-6 and the mean number density of micro inclusions is 4.0 per mm²,the fraction of inclusions over 50 μm is 2.10 mg/kg. But the unsteady continuous cast slabs contain much more inclusions. The cleanness of the first slab is worst because of the serious re-oxidation. The slabs were polluted by the slag or mold powder due to the lever fluctuation in the tudish or the mold while changing ladle or SEN. The last slab of the tudish was polluted both by the air re-oxidation and the slag entrapments. The distribution of micro inclusions shows that the maximum number of inclusion is found at the 1/4 width of the slab,while 1/2 width appears minimum amount of inclusion. Along the thickness direction,the number of inclusion near the inner and outer surfaces of the slab are obviously higher than those of central area.

Abstract:
The surface quality,crack morphologies,microstructures,oxygen and nitrogen content and non-metallic inclusions of Q195 cold heading steel were studied by a set of analysis techniques,such as acid washing,optical microscopy,scanning electronic microscope （SEM）,and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy （EDS）.The results showed that the total oxygen content in steel was 154 × 10^-6,which indicated that non-metallic inclusions content was higher. Large size inclusions were found at the cracks of the rolled material,and a large number of large-sized inclusions were found near 1/4 width to the edge of rolled material,the composition of the inclusions was similar to that of the continuous casting mold powder. Large inclusions cause stress concentration during cold heading,which leads to and aggravates cold heading cracking. At the same time,improper control of rolling process causing the folding defects on the product surface and further 180 ° symmetrical longitudinal cracks,is the main reason for cold heading cracking.

Abstract:
H13 hot working die steel belongs to medium carbon steel,which have high contents of Cr,Mo and V. Therefore,during solidification these carbide forming elements will be separated into a large number of network carbide,which is difficult to be completely eliminated by subsequent heat treatment. Thusthe performance of steel will be reduced. In this paper the effects of different contents of magnesium on the carbides in H13 steel had been studied. Metallurgical observations show that the shape and distribution of carbides in H13 steel can be improved by trace magnesium. The bulky reticulate carbide in steel is interrupted into tiny carbide. And the carbides distributed in H13 steel become fine and uniform after magnesium treatment. 0.004% magnesium additions can achieve the best result. The main reason for the improvement of carbide is magnesium segregation at grain boundaries. Through theoretical analysis,it is found out that the high degree of magnesium segregation at the grain boundaryduring solidification and cooling hinders the growth of carbides and then achieves the purpose of refining carbides.
