Abstract:
Considering that the recovering V2O5 by roasting leads to some serious problems such as environment pollution,high energy consumption and low conversion efficiency at present,the influencing factors of leaching vanadium from ore with the composite sodium agent are studied in this paper by sub-molten salt method.The investigation involves many hands including analyzing the primary and secondary relations of these factors by orthogonal test,and further researching the effects of liquid-to-solid ratio,the adding content of chloride salts and reaction time on vanadium leaching efficiency.The results show that the leaching efficiency of V2O5 is higher than 90% in the condition of agent concentration 70%,liquid-to-solid ratio 5:1,the ratio of chloride salts 45 and reaction time 2.5 h.Taking sub-molten salt method can resolve some problems to recover V2O5 caused by roasting,and provide a new way for extracting V2O5 from wet process.

2008, 29(2): 9-13.
Abstract(25) PDF(1)
Abstract:
Effects of coiling temperature(600、650 and 700 ℃,respectively) on the microstructures and mechanical properties of micro-alloyed rephosphorized steel sheet were investigated by analyzing its microstructures and mechanical properties in as hot-rolled and as annealed conditions as well as its recrystallization dynamic behaviors during annealing.The results showed that the microstructure and properties of the experimental steel sheet were obviously affected by the hot-rolling coiling temperature and its recrystallization was prohibited significantly,resulting in higher activation energy for recrystallization,when the coiling temperature was decreased from 700 ℃ to 600 ℃.It was also found that the grain sizes at as hot-rolled or as annealed conditions were both little affected by the coiling temperature whereas not only the as hot-rolled strength and as annealed strength were increased as the coiling temperature decreased,but also the mechanical properties at as annealed conditions became more sensitive to annealing temperature.

Abstract:
Ao mine and sinters were observed by optical microscopy.The results showed that the structure of Ao mine is loose,The primary compositions are hematite and limonite,existing as the xenomorphic granular state.While the Ao mine content of sinter increased from 10% to 50%,the content of calcium ferrite increased,the content of magnetite,dicalcium silicate and glassiness decreased, the sintering microstructure changed from porphyritic structure to intertwining melting structure.The microstucture lead to the increasing of sinter intensity.

Abstract(26) PDF(1)
Abstract:
The MIG welding research on 304 austenitic stainless steel plates with 3 mm thick was carried out.The results showed,fast welding velocity is benefit to enhancing joint's quality,because faster welding velocity may help to reduce the region of welding seam and heat affect zone.But too fast welding velocity is not good because of the produce of pores,and the joints will suffer from low strength stability and poor anti-corrosion.Appropriate welding velocity will keep 304 austenite stainless steel welding joints having good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance.

Abstract(21) PDF(1)
Abstract:
Iron carbide was produced by reacting of iron ore with(H2+CH4) gas mixture at 1 023 K.The effects of V2O3 and Al2O3 additives on iron carbide formation were experimentally investigated by thermogravimetry and XRD analysis.It was observed that the addition of V2O3 had significantly promoting effect on both iron ore reduction and iron carbide formation.The V2O3 addition also increased the conversion yields from iron ore to iron carbide,and improved the stability of iron carbide.When the content of the V2O3 was within 1 percent,with the content increasing,the rate of iron ore reduction and carbonization all accelerated notablely.When the content of the V2O3 was 2 or 3 percent,the reduction rate and the carbonization rate of the specimen were both smaller appreciably than that when the V2O3 content was 1 percent.It was also observed that the addition of Al2O3 had promoting effect on reduction of iron ore to some extent,but it has bad effect on the stability of iron carbide.

Abstract(21) PDF(1)
Abstract:
The microstructures of accidental film and adjusted film for low-carbon steel have been studied,accidental reasons have been analysed,and the way is point out to improve performance of lubricity and heat conductivity of casting powder and quality of slab by controlling the solidified film structure and mineralogical phase.Casting powder for low-carbon steel should possess good heat conductivity and low crystal rate.so,It is necessary to decrease crystal rate and increase glassy tendency of film,and avoid forming some mineral like K-Na-feldspar、Plagioclase、nephelite、cuspidine in solidfied film.All things considered,especially lubricity and heat conductivity,wollastonite、melilite in solidfied film are good.After adding B2O3 and LiO2,crystal size was decreased,glassy tendency was increased,and the quality of slab was improved obviously.

2008, 29(2): 37-42.
Abstract(23) PDF(1)
Abstract:
The mass transfer of benzoic acid between water and oil has been performed to simulate the mass transfer processes of metallurgical reactions in gas stirred ladles, and effects of gas flow rate, slag volume, tuyere positions on mass transfer rate have been studied when the rate controlling process is mass transfer in slag.The results show that mass transfer rate increases with the increasing of gas flow rate, and increases abruptly at a critical gas flow rate, for mass transfer of benzoic acid the dependence of kA on Q was kAQ0.20 in low gas flow region and kAQ0.80 in high region, the abrupt rate increase is due to increase of interface area begotten by entrapment of slag;mass transfer rate also increases with increasing of slag volume;centric gas bubbling could reach higher mass transfer rate than off-centric positions, so it is suggested that the determine of optimum tuyere position should based on both mixing time and mass transfer rate.

Abstract:
The change of plating microstructure was investigated by microscope and SEM,when the Galvalume sheet steel was tested in diverse high temperatures.It was showed the color of surface didn't change when temperature was in 300~450℃,but the Galvalume branching crystal cracks expanded larger and larger,as the temperature was higher.The Al-Si-Fe alloy stratum was formed and it's distribution developed from intermittence to continuum,it's thickness was increasing,So that plating cracking and desquamating with base sheet steel,the corrosion resistance decreased.The plating was all alloyed and oxide to change color quickly when temperature was in 500,it complete lost corrosion resistance in the end.

Abstract:
The cause of edge cracking defect of hot-rolled strips was investigated and analyzed by metallographic microscope,SEM and process investigation.The results showed that bad deoxidization during smelting and the unstable casting operation are the main causes for continuous edge cracking of strips;The overheating and overburning of slab during ready rolling stage are the main causes for non-continuous edge cracking of strips.According to study results,the process was optimized and better results were obtained,the rate of edge cracking defects of slab decreased from 80~85 heats/month to 4~5 heats /month,the continuous edge cracking of hot-rolled strips was almost eliminated and the rate of the noncontinuous edge cracking of hot-rolled strips decreased from 17.6% to 1.2%.
