Abstract:
The feasibility of rapid leaching of Panzhihua ilmenite in sulfuric acid through combined milling under industrially employed acid/ore mass ratio was investigated.The effects of the stirring speed of attritor,milling ball/ore mass ratio,reaction temperature and sulfuric acid concentration on the dissolution were examined.The results show that with the simultaneous milling and dissolution the 1 h Ti leaching rate was 64% higher than that without milling under the otherwise same conditions due to lattice deformation and noticeably refined particles resulted from the milling.Optimized leaching conditions were obtained as follows: stirring speed at 700 r/min,ball/ore ratio at 5∶ 1,acid/ore ratio at 1∶ 1.6,sulfuric acid concentration at 70% and temperature at 120 ℃.Under these conditions,a titanium leaching rate of 81% was reached in 60 min and the stability of the titanyl sulfate solution thus obtained was higher than 550 mL.Therefore,direct digestion of ilmenite in 70% of sulphuric acid solution is feasible,which can fully reuse the hydrolyzed waste sulfuric acid discharged in the sulfate pigment production.

2012, 33(4): 18-23.

Abstract(41) PDF(1)

Abstract:
TiO₂ nanotube array（TNT） coatings were anodized on the titanium surface,and the effect of the phase and morphology of the TiO₂ on the photocatalytic activity was researched.The studies indicate that the photodegradation of organic contaminant by TNT depends on the hydroxyl radical which is synthesized by the photogenerated holes and oxidizer in the solutions,through depredating the contaminant by oxidizing the genes of organic compounds.By enlarging specific surface of aligned nanotube,the number of photoinduced electron in elemental area could increase,which results in improved degradation efficiency of organic contaminant.The less fluorine ion residues on the nanotube array,the higher percent of photodegradation.That’s because under UV irradiation,the negatively charged fluorine ion tends to react with positively charged photo-holes.In addition,due to the fluorine ion residues,Ti³⁺ appears in the nanotube,resulting in reduction of the electrons.Under conditions of low temperature annealing,the morphology of nanotube is not significantly altered.The main effect which can influence the property of semiconductor is phase conversion.Dominated with anatase structure,the TNT facilitates the separation and transmission of photogenerated electrons and holes,thus improving photocatalytic properties.

Abstract(59) PDF(2)

Abstract:
On the basis of RHF technology,high-temperature calcination experiments were carried out in the laboratory to directly reduce carbon-containing pellet made of vanadium bearing titaniferous magnetite.Through XRD analysis,the effects of carbon proportion（w_C/w_O）,reduction temperature and reduction time on metallization rate of pellet and content of carbon residue are discussed in this paper.The results show that: with the increase in reduction temperature,the metallization rate constantly increases while content of carbon residue decreases,and as the temperature rises,the metallization rate increases rapidly before 1 350 ℃ and reaches 90% or above at 1 350 ℃,and then levels off;with the increase in reduction time,the metallization rate of pellet firstly increases and then decreases and the carbon residue is gradually reduced,and when the reduction time is at 30 min,the metallization rate reaches the maximum（91.37%）;with the increase in carbon proportion（w_C/w_O）,the reduction of pellet is accelerated and metallization rate is improved,and when w_C/w_O is at 1.3,it reaches the maximum（94.28%）.

2012, 33(4): 34-39.

Abstract(78) PDF(4)

Abstract:
The sticking of iron ore powder restricts the reduction of iron ore in fludized bed.The effects of sticking prevention by adding inert material into fludized bed,and the relationship between defluidization and composition and size of iron ore,reduction temperature and atmosphere,metallization rate,and kinds and quantity of inert material etc.are probed into through experiment in this paper.Then the mechanism of sticking is discussed.MgO is the best additive for sticking prevention with an adding amount below 5%;CaO comes second with the adding amount of 5%¹0%.Small amount of coke powder,dolomite,and CaCO3 has little effect on sticking prevention.The lower melting point,the smaller size,and the higher metallization rate and temperature the iron ore powder has,the easier it becomes defluidized.

Abstract(44) PDF(2)

Abstract:
Experiments were conducted in a high frequency vacuum induction furnace to smelt titanium and niobium microalloyed steel with different titanium addition at 1 550 ℃ under Ar atmosphere,and then the samples underwent heat treatment.The effect of titanium additive amount on composition,microstructure,typical inclusions and macro mechanical property of the titanium and niobium microalloyed steel were analyzed.The results show oxygen content in the steel microalloyed with titanium and niobium decreases to about 20×10-6 after Al is employed to deoxidize and the utilization rate of titanium exceeds 80%.Inclusions in the steel were mainly sphere shaped or approximate to sphere shaped Al₂O₃,SiO₂,and TiO_x based complex inclusions.Cube shaped(Ti,Nb)(C,N) complex inclusions and NbC,TiC inclusions in the steel precipitate around the spherical oxide inclusions.A lot of fine(Ti,Nb)(C,N) precipitations after heat treatment can be seen with confocal laser scanning microscope.After heat treatment,with the increase of titanium content in the steel,inclusions with the size less than 1 μm increase significantly,while the inclusions with the size larger than 1 μm tend to decrease.Heated and held at 1 200 ℃,the austenite grain of the samples became smaller with the increase of titanium addition in the steel.Thus the microstructure was obviously refined in steel,which led to improvement of macro hardness of the steel.

2012, 33(4): 86-91.

Abstract(48) PDF(1)

Abstract:
The behavior of carbon and sulfur segregations of 82B hard wire steel produced under different continuous casting conditions has been systematically analyzed based on field tests and laboratory analysis.The results show three factors including superheat,casting speed and F-EMS which influence segregation of billets work differently with the variations of inner parts and segregation elements.For the central segregations of carbon and sulfur,the effect of casting speed dominates over the other factors.Under high casting speed,proper increase of secondary cooling intensity could effectively decrease carbon and sulfur segregations of billet,especially for the central part of the billet.The hydraulic simulation of tundish shows the optimal casting speed should be 1.8 m/min.

2012, 33(4): 96-100.

Abstract(104) PDF(2)

Abstract:
The surface "dark line" and longitudinal hair crack in W600 non-oriented electrical steel strip are observed by SEM.The cause of surface "dark line" defects found in the after coated strip is that foreign substances are embedded into the scratches of strip surface caused by the graphite bottom roll build-ups in the soaking furnace（SF） section of the continuous annealing line and then covered by the coating in the coating process;the cause of surface longitudinal hair crack defects found in both of the cold rolled strip and after coated strip is that the complex aluminate inclusions in the slab are broken due to deformation and then extruded out from the inside layer during hot and cold rolling processes.In order to eliminate the "black line",the graphite bottom rolls should be changed or cleaned at regular intervals,and sections for feeding wet H₂+N₂+H₂O gas should be reduced from the original 6 to 4 and the furnace temperature in these four sections should be controlled under 880 ℃.In order to eliminate the longitudinal crack,inclusions in steel should be strictly controlled in refining and continuous casting processes to ensure the liquid level fluctuation in crystallizer kept at ±3 mm~± 5 mm.
