Abstract:
Converter vanadium slag is a raw material for direct extraction of vanadium,which contains valuable metals such as vanadium,chromium,titanium and iron.At present,the extraction process of converter vanadium slag is mainly divided into sodium roasting-water leaching and calcification roasting-acid leaching.The process of sodium roasting-water leaching will produce a lot of harmful gases which will pollute the environment.Although no waste gas is generated during the process of calcification roasting-acid leaching,there are many impurities in the acid leaching solution,which affects the quality of vanadium products.Based on the necessity of comprehensive utilization of converter vanadium slag,this paper introduces the latest new technology for vanadium extraction from converter vanadium slag,discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the new process,and proposes some suggestions of comprehensive utilization of converter vanadium slag.

Abstract:
The precipitation of vanadium in a high concentration vanadium solution essentially influences the industrialization of vanadium slag sodiumization pelletizing roasting process.In order to provide a benchmark for solving the problem of vanadium precipitation in high concentration vanadium solution,the research on of hydrolyzed vanadium deposition in high concentration vanadium solution and acid ammonium salt deposition in high concentration vanadium solution had been reviewed,and progress of melamine deposition in high concentration vanadium solution was highlighted.Based on the advantages and drawbacks of these processes,the processes of hydrolyzed vanadium and acidic ammonium salt vanadium precipitation are thought not suitable for high concentration vanadium solution.The mechanism of vanadium precipitation with high concentration liquid and the influence of impurity elements on vanadium precipitation and the regulation mechanism should be investigated when taking into account of vanadium precipitation in high-concentration vanadium solution.In addition,it should be noted that melamine precipitation of vanadium can be a novel way of precipitating vanadium in a high-concentration vanadium solution.

Abstract:
In order to achieve low-temperature reduction of vanadium-titanium magnetite,high-value utilization of iron powder,and clean utilization of vanadium-rich titanium materials,a new process which includes grinding and removal of impurities,ore,coal,sodium salt mixed to make agglomerates,direct reduction-grinding,secondary reduction of iron powder,sodium roasting to extract vanadium for efficient and comprehensive utilization of vanadium-titanium magnetite was proposed.The results show that the grinding treatment of vanadium-titanium magnetite concentrate can effectively remove impurities,laying the foundation for the subsequent production of high-quality iron powder and efficient vanadium extraction.The addition of sodium salt can greatly reduce the direct reduction temperature and improve the reduction effect.After grinding and selecting the primary reduced iron powder and secondary reduction,the reduced iron with 98.72% grade can be obtained,and its chemical compositions and process performances reach the industrial first-level iron powder standard.V2O5 with 98.12% of purity can be obtained from the vanadium titanium enriched material by sodium oxidation roasting-water leaching-acid ammonium salt vanadium precipitation-calcination and deamination.A titanium-rich material with a TiO2 grade of 49.61% can be obtained from the leaching residue through dilute sulfuric acid leaching.Under the selected conditions,the total recovery rates of Fe,V2O5 and TiO2 from vanadium-titanium magnetite concentrates to secondary reduced iron powder,V2O5 products and titanium-rich materials are 90.75%,82.71% and 89.63%,respectively.

Abstract:
With the solution containing 17.86 g/L of vanadium and 15.96 g/L of chromium as the raw material,vanadium precipitation through hydrolysis was carried out in this work.The effects of pH value,temperature,time,chromium and sodium concentrations in the solution on the vanadium precipitation rate were investigated.The results show that a vanadium precipitation rate of 91.61% can be obtained at the pH value of 1.8 and the temperature above 95 ℃ for 60 min.At 1.7~17 g/L of chromium concentration in the solution,the precipitation rate of vanadium increases with increase of the chromium concentration,and 97.5% of vanadium precipitation rate can be achieved at 17 g/L of chromium concentration.However,the vanadium precipitation rate decreases with the chromium concentration exceeding 17 g/L,with the precipitation rate decreased to 95% at 25 g/L of chromium concentration.Furthermore,the rate of vanadium precipitation decreases obviously with increase of the sodium concentration(35.2~90 g/L) in the solution.Hence chromium with a proper concentration in the solution is favor for vanadium precipitation via hydrolysis,while sodium in the solution is adverse to vanadium precipitation.

Abstract(30) PDF(2)
Abstract:
Using the ilmenite with high calcium and magnesium as the raw material,titanium rich material with low calcium and magnesium was prepared via carbothermal reduction followed by leaching process in the laboratory.XRD analysis of the reduced ilmenite shows that calcium exists in silicate phases of the reduced ilmenite,and magnesium and titanium form a solid solution of anosovite.The leaching test shows that calcium in the reduced ilmenite can be leached efficiently by hydrochloric acid,with the magnesium remaining in the solid solution.The leaching efficiency of magnesium can be improved significantly by adding boric acid in the carbothermal reduction process.Through the proposed process,titanium rich material with 0.13% of CaO and 1.12% of MgO can be obtained.

Abstract(35) PDF(4)
Abstract:
Potassium hydroxide,phosphoric acid and zinc sulfate were separately or overall added to the titanium dioxide hydrated for calcination,and the rutile conversion rate of the samples after calcination was detected by Raman spectrometer.The results show that with increase in the addition of single potassium hydroxide or phosphoric acid,the inhibition effect on rutile conversion is stronger,and the inhibition is more obvious at lower temperatures.Furthermore,the conversion rate of rutile is more sensitive to the calcination temperature at higher addition amount of potassium hydroxide or phosphoric acid,while it is mainly determined by the temperature at higher calcination temperatures.Using zinc sulfate as the agent,the conversion rate of rutile increases with increase in the addition amount.When it is higher than 820 ℃,the temperature becomes the main factor for promoting the conversion of rutile.The orthogonal test results show that the influence order of the factors on rutile conversion is phosphoric acid>zinc sulfate>potassium hydroxide.A relationship between the conversion rate of rutile and addition amount of salt treating agent,calcination temperature,i.e.YY≥97)=90.9+0.09X1-5.30X2+0.42X3+0.009 6X4,is established via the orthogonal tests.

Abstract:
As the core material for energy storage and conversion of vanadium redox battery,the composition of electrolyte,especially the impurity content in the solution,greatly affects the physicochemical properties of electrolyte,reversibility of electrode reactions and the charge-discharge performance of battery.The influence of Al concentration on the physicochemical properties of electrolyte was studied,and the effect of Al on the electrochemical performances of electrolyte and battery was analyzed by cyclic voltammetry and charge-discharge test.The results indicate that with the increase of Al/V(molar ratio),both of the viscosity and density of the electrolyte increase,with the conductivity obviously decreased.At the molar ratio of Al to V of 1∶3.0,the viscosity and density of the electrolyte increase by 64% and 2.8% respectively,and the conductivity of the electrolyte decreases by 34%.Furthermore,Al reduces the reversibility of positive and negative electrode reactions.Meanwhile,with increase in the molar ratio of Al to V,coulombic efficiency of the battery increases,with its voltage efficiency and energy efficiency significantly decreased.In addition,the stability of negative electrolyte is decreased due to the existence of Al.

Abstract:
The titanium thin film was deposited via electron beam vacuum evaporation on the surface of steel belt by changing the tape travel speed. The phase composition and structure,cross-sectional morphology and film-base bonding force of the titanium film were studied by XRD,FIB,scratch test and other methods. The results show that the titanium film has a close-packed hexagonal structure,and it presents an intense preferred orientation at (002) lattice plane at different tape travel speeds. With the tape travel speed increased from 1 m/min to 4 m/min,the titanium film thickness increases from 744.7 nm to 855.9 nm,and the bonding force between the Ti-film and substrates decreases rapidly and then tends to be gentle. Within the tentative range,the maximum bonding force is 24.78 N.

Abstract:
Aiming at the problem of the sticking defects in the rotary piercing process of large diameter TA2 titanium tube,the influence of the sticking defects on the surface condition,deformation defect,dimensional accuracy and other macro-quality of the pierced shell tube and the micro-structure distribution were analyzed.The results show that the rolling process time is extended due to the sticking defects and its treatments of the guide plate.The coating has a certain inhibition effect on the sticking defects,but it is basically failed after the single pass piercing rolling.The annealing micro-structure of the tube is equiaxed grains and the grain size is refined to a great extent after the rotary piercing process.The influence of the discs sticking defects and the process extension time on the grain size is not obvious.Therefore,the corresponding measures,e.g.control of the furnace temperature,optimization on feeding mode and adopting guide discs of cast iron,were taken to reduce the titanium sticking degree,which effectively improve the surface quality of the shell tube and reduce the loss of the discs.

Abstract:
In order to further realize the effective recovery of titanium components from the titanium-containing blast furnace slag,the effect of temperature conditions and additives on the selective precipitation behavior of perovskite crystals were studied in this paper.By analyzing the chemical components and mineral compositions of titanium-bearing blast furnace slag,the selective precipitation technology was used to explore the effects of the Fe2O3 addition amount,the temperature holding range,the cooling rate and the additives on the perovskite precipitation and growth.Based on the investigation,the most favorable temperature range for perovskite crystallization was found around 1 350~1 320 ℃.With 3.2% CaO and 0.5% Fe2O3 added to the slag,and the temperature decreasing at a temperature reduction rate of 0.5 ℃/min in the range of 1 350 ℃ to 1 320 ℃,the crystal size and volume fraction of the perovskite phase precipitated reached the maximum values at the same time,respectively at 58.83 μm and 20.17%.Adding 4% CaF2,2% Al2O3 or 2% MnO under the same temperature conditions can gradually increase the crystal size and volume fraction of perovskite in the slag,and thus realize the effective enrichment of TiO2 in the titanium-containing blast furnace slag,which has created favorable conditions for the separation of perovskite phase.

High titanium blast furnace slag and waste glass powder were used to prepare foam glass-ceramics by "one-step sintering method",in which the foaming process synchronizes with the crystallization process.It can realize the high value-added overall utilization of high titanium blast furnace slag and is economical and environmentally sustainable.The effects of slow-cooling and water-quenched high titanium blast furnace slag on the preparation of foam glass-ceramics were studied.The results are as follows:the pore diameter and porosity of foam glass-ceramics gradually decrease,while the volum density and compressive strength gradually increase with increase of the addition amount of the two types of high-titanium blast furnace slag.The samples prepared from slow-cooling high titanium blast furnace slag has more irregular connected holes with a poor temperature insulation performance,while they have a noise reduction coefficient of 29% higher than that of the samples from water-quenched high titanium blast furnace slag which can be used as high strength sound absorption materials.The material prepared from water-quenched slag is mostly round closed pores with a lower noise reduction coefficient and better thermal insulation performance,which has a broad prospect for application to lightweight and high-strength thermal insulation materials.

Abstract:
Steel slag beads are a by-product of steel slag formed by direct gas quenching of liquid steel slag.In this paper,steel slag beads were used as substitutes for fine aggregate of concrete,and the influences of substitution rates(0%,20%,35%,and 50%) of steel slag beads for the fine aggregate on the durability of concrete were studied.The results show that the corrosion resistance of the concrete is adversely affected by the steel slag beads substituting natural sand.The corrosion resistance coefficient with 50% replacement rate of steel slag beads is lower than 75% after 60 dry and wet cycles.Moreover,the freezing-thawing resistance of steel slag bead concrete is better than that of the ordinary concrete,and it is proportional to the substitution rate of steel slag beads.The steel slag beads can improve the carbonization resistance of the concrete.

Abstract(19) PDF(1)
Abstract:
Studying various performance characteristics of titanium gypsum is of great significance for the recovery,resource utilization and re-use of titanium gypsum.In order to maximize the use of titanium gypsum,experiments were performed by replacing part of titanium gypsum with flue gas desulfurization gypsum(FGD),and moisture content and strength tests were performed on titanium gypsum test blocks at different time points.The experimental results show that under natural curing conditions,with increase of the curing time both of the flexural strength and compressive strength of the titanium gypsum test blocks first decrease and then increase,and the moisture content decreases rapidly and then slowly.Using the Origin software to fit and analyze the experimental data,the Cubic(x,A,B,C,D) model can be used to predict the change in flexural strength and compressive strength of the titanium gypsum test block,and the LangmuirEXT2 function model can better predict the changes in moisture content of gypsum test blocks.The main reason for the decrease followed by increase in strength of titanium gypsum test blocks combined with SEM analysis is that the rapid loss of free water under natural curing conditions with the free water content around the dihydrate gypsum crystals decreased,and most of the water changes from physical adsorption to chemical adsorption which constitutes dihydrate gypsum crystals and forms effective structural strength.

Abstract:
The effect of calcium treatment on the precipitation of TiN secondary particles was studied using optical microscope and scanning electron microscope.The results showed that,after calcium treatment,TiN nucleated on the interface of CaS particles,forming composite precipitation.There was a large amount of coarse TiN-CaS particles,and the proportion of composite precipitation particles above 1 μm was up to 63%.Without the calcium treatment,TiN nucleated independently,the size of the precipitation particles decreased significantly,and the second phase particles above 1 μm decreased to 42%.The mechanism of nucleation and precipitation of TiN at CaS interface had been further discussed.CaS came from the reaction of Ca and S or complex reaction of CaO,Al2O3 and S in molten steel.The structure of the high melting temperature phases of CaS and TiN were cubic crystal with low lattice mismatch degree and low interface energy,which promoted TiN nucleation at its interface in advance.

Abstract(27) PDF(1)
Abstract:
Three different annealing processes regarding forge cooling and isothermal softening were designed for ultra-high strength low alloy bainite steel produced by a domestic steel plant. The microstructure of the samples under different annealing processes was observed by scanning electron microscope,and the hardness was measured by a Brinell hardness tester. The results show that the microstructure of the materials under air cooling +sub-thermal spheroidization annealing is composed of tempered tortolite,where the carbides are intermittent or patchy,and hardness is 270 HB. The microstructure under air cooling +isothermal spheroidization annealing is still composed of tempered tortolite,where the carbides are thick strips,and hardness is 290 HB. The microstructure under furnace cooling +sub-thermal spheroidization annealing is composed of tempered sostenite,where the M-A islands are decomposed,the carbides are spheroidized and aggregated,and the ferrite is recovered. Hardness of steel with the later process is significantly reduced to 245 HB,which is appropriate for cutting performance.

Abstract:
The effect of solution treatment on microstructure and pitting corrosion property of heat rolling 2205 duplex stainless steel was investigated by means of OM and immersing in a 10%FeCl3 solution test.The results show that as the solution treatment temperature increase,the fibrous structure morphologies of austenite in hot rolling 2205 duplex stainless steel gradually evolves into equiaxed rod-like and island-like morphology,and evenly distributed in 2205 duplex stainless steel,and the volume fraction ferrite increases.A suitable volume fraction of α/γ-phase is distributed uniformly after solution treatment at 1 100 ℃.In a 10%FeCl3 solution test,pitting corrosion resistance of 2205 duplex stainless steel increases with increasing the ferrite fraction.When the solution treatment temperature is 1 100 ℃,no obvious corrosion area appeares in the 2205 duplex stainless steel,thus the steel exhibits the best resistance to pitting corrosion.

The welding procedure test of S22053 duplex-stainless steel is performed by the keyhole PAW,the keyhole PAW+ auto-GTAW with filler metal for cover pass and the keyhole PAW+ auto-GTAW with filler metal for cover pass+auto-GTAW without filler metal for root pass in order to study service and welding characteristic of duplex-stainless steel as well as PAW suitability.The quality,properties and structure of these joints are analyzed by nondestructive examination,tension,bend,low-temperature impact as well as metallographic tests.These joints made by three welding procedures show higher tension strength than S22053 base metal,and excellent ductility,toughness and corrosion resistance,which meets the requirement of service characteristic for duplex-stainless steel. Compared with the PAW joint,the toughness and corrosion resistance of the joint welded by auto-GTAW with the filler metal after PAW weld decrease to a certain degree.

Abstract:
The high heat input welding steel 12MnNiVR was trial-produced by two different production processes.The microstructure and mechanical properties of the tested steel were obtained by optical microscope,tensile testing machine and low-temperature impact toughness testing machine,and the post-welding heat treatment behavior of the test steel was simulated by heat treatment test furnace.The results show that the tested steel produced by on-line quenching and off-line tempering process has a large amount of tempered sorbite and a small amount of tempered bainite,and a large number of carbides are evenly distributed on the ferrite matrix.In the quenched and tempered steel,the microstructure at room temperature changes from as-rolled ferrite and pearlite to more homogeneous tempered sorbite with more dispersed carbide after quenching and tempering.The tested steels produced by the two processes both exhibit excellent comprehensive mechanical properties,and after simulated post-weld heat treatment test,their properties did not decrease significantly.The on-line quenching and off-line tempering process has the advantage of eliminating reheat procedure,then can replace the quenching and tempering process,and has a positive and important role in reducing the production cost.

Abstract:
In this paper,the welding thermal cycle process of deep-sea pipeline steel was investigated using welding thermal simulation.The microstructure variation,crystallography characteristic and second-phase precipitation behaviors of the softening zone of heat affected zone(HAZ) were characterized and analyzed by combining with the scanning electron microscope,electron back-scattered diffraction,transmission electron microscopy and hardness testing.The results show that HAZ softening zone appears in the fine-grained zone with a peak temperature of 1 000~900 ℃ for deep-sea pipeline steel whose base metal microstructure is the polygonal ferrite and acicular ferrite.Using V microalloying and low welding heat input can reduce the grain size,increase the proportion of small-angle grain boundaries and the dislocation density effectively.Thus,the softening problem of the HAZ fine-grained region can be effectively improved.

Abstract:
Various contents of vanadium were added to 40 Cr die steel,and the microstructure,impact property at room temperature and wear resistance of the die steels were tested,compared and analyzed.The results show that proper addition of vanadium can improve the microstructure,increase impact absorption energy,reduce wear volume,improve impact property and wear resistance of 40 Cr die steel samples.Compared with the steel without vanadium,the impact absorption energy is separately increased by 6.25%,16.67% and 12.5%,and the wear volume is respectively decreased by 12.5%,26.92% and 24.04% for the sample with 0.25%,0.5% and 0.75% of vanadium,respectively.When the vanadium content is 0.5%,the impact absorption energy of the sample is the largest,and the wear volume is the smallest,with the best impact performance and wear resistance.The vanadium content in 40 Cr die steel is optimized at 0.5%.

Abstract:
The forging tests of Mg-8 Gd-1.5 Y-0.8 Ti high-strength magnesium alloy samples containing Ti were carried out with different initial forging temperature,final forging temperature and forging speed.The mechanical properties of obtained alloys were tested and analyzed.The results show that proper increasing of the initial forging temperature,final forging temperature and forging speed contribute to the improvement of mechanical properties.Mg-8 Gd-1.5 Y-0.8 Ti magnesium alloy containing Ti has the highest tensile strength and yield strength at initial forging temperature of 440 ℃,final forging temperature of 350 ℃ and forging speed of 12 mm/min.The tensile strength and yield strength were respectively increased by 51 MPa and 53 MPa compared with those forged at the initial forging temperature of 380 ℃,increased by 46 MPa and 49 MPa respectively at final forging temperature of 290 ℃,and increased by 39 MPa and 37 MPa compared with those forged at 4 mm/min.Thus it is proposed that the best forging process parameters of the Mg-8 Gd-1.5 Y-0.8 Ti high-strength magnesium alloy samples containing Ti are as following:initial forging temperature of 440 ℃,final forging temperature of 350 ℃,and forging speed of 12 mm/min.
