Influence of Smelting Processes on the Usability of Tantalum Strip as Superconducting Wire Barrier

Rare Metals and Cemented Carbides | Vol., Issue 1, 2016 | pp. 37-40
The influences were investigated of smelting speed and tungsten element segregation on service performance of tantalum strip as superconducting wire barrier.The results show that the tantalum ingot can be purified and its microstructure also can be improved by slowing down the first smelting speed and raising up the second smelting speed,and therefore the product of tantalum strip has fine and homogeneous microstructure.By strictly controlling the tungsten content in the raw materials(≤0.002%)and reducing welding points or applying other welding equipment without tungsten welding pins,tungsten impurity into the ingot can be avoided and tungsten segregation in the ingot can be reduced to prevent fracture of tantalum strip during the service.

Rare Metals and Cemented Carbides | Vol., Issue 1, 2016 | pp. 41-46
The effect was studied of quenching at different temperature on microstructure and hydrogen storage properties of 40Ti-40V-10Cr-10 Mn alloy.The results show that the unquenched sample is V-based solid solution with body centered structure having two close characteristic diffraction peaks of BCC-1phase and BCC-2phase.The sample quenched at 1 473 Khas a single BCC-1phase.Both the samples quenched at1 573 Kand 1 673 Kconsist of BCC-1phase,BCC-2phase and C14-Laves phase with hexagonal closepacked structure.The results of kinetic mechanism study show that the hydrogen absorption kinetic process of all the samples can be described by chemical reaction mechanism,while their equations of kinetic mechanism are significantly different and thus their hydrogen absorption rates are different.With the increase of quenching temperature of the samples,their hydrogen absorption capacity at 298 K decreases firstly and then increases(getting the minimum at 1 573 Kand the sample quenched at 1 673 Kclose to the unquenched sample),their hydrogen desorption capacity and hysteresis at 298 Kare gradually improved,and their hydrogen desorption capacity at 373 Kalso decreases at first and then increases(getting the minimum at 1 573 Kand the sample quenched at 1 673 Khigher obviously than the unquenched sample).

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Luminescent Properties of Co2+ Doped YPO_4:Eu3+ Phosphors

Rare Metals and Cemented Carbides | Vol., Issue 1, 2016 | pp. 50-55
Co2+doped YPO4:Eu3+phosphors were successfully synthesized with hydrothermal method.The crystal structure,element valence state and luminescent properties of the as-synthesized samples were investigated by XRD,XPS,FT-IR and FL.The results show that all the samples from hydrothermal synthesis are single-phase Co2+doped YPO4:Eu3+crystals with tetragonal xenotime structure,they can effectively emit characteristic orange-red luminescence of Eu3+with UV light excitation,and the fluorescence lifetime is approximately 4.6ms.A small amount of Co2+and Eu3+codoping has less influence on phase composition and crystal structure of product matrix,but has a significant impact on its luminescent properties.The intensity of emission peak located at 595 nm of YPO4:2%Eu3+,0.10 %Co2+sample is about 21.1%higher than that of YPO4:2%Eu3+sample.

Rare Metals and Cemented Carbides | Vol., Issue 1, 2016 | pp. 60-64
The resistance was measured of Na3AlF6-AlF3-LiF-MgF2-Al2O3-Nd2O3-CuO molten salt system with TH2810 DLCR digital bridge tester,and then its electrical conductivity was tested by CVCC technique.Meanwhile,the regression equation including temperature,composition and electrical conductivity of the molten salt was developed by data fitting with the least square method.The results show that the molten salt conductivity increases with the increase of temperature or CuO content,but decreases with Nd2O3 and Al2O3content increasing.Simultaneously adding Nd2O3 and CuO of the same mass ratio at a certain temperature,the electrical conductivity of molten salt system increases with the increase of Nd2O3 and CuO content.

Study on Solvothermal Synthesis and Thermoelectric Properties of Bismuth Telluride Nanopowder

Rare Metals and Cemented Carbides | Vol., Issue 1, 2016 | pp. 65-67
Bismuth telluride nanopowder was synthesized with solvothermal method to prepare thermoelectric material by hot pressing sintering.Phase composition and grain size of the nanopowder and thermoelectric properties of the sintered material were determined and analyzed.The results show that the nanopowder synthesized using TeO2 as tellurium source has higher phase purity,better crystallization properties and smaller grain size than using Te as tellurium source.When solvothermal reaction temperature is 130 ℃ or140 ℃,there are small amount of bismuth and tellurium metallic phases and BiTe phase in the synthesized powder.When the temperature is 150 ℃ or 160 ℃,the synthesized powder consists of pure Bi2Te3 phase,and the synthesized powder at 150 ℃ has smaller grain size and better crystallization properties.Compared with bismuth telluride thermoelectric material prepared by traditional zone melting-hot pressing sintering,the material prepared by solvothermal synthesis-hot pressing sintering has lower thermal conductivity and better comprehensive thermoelectric properties.

High Pressure Leaching of Tungsten and Vanadium with Sodium Carbonate from Spent SCR Denitration Catalyst

Rare Metals and Cemented Carbides | Vol., Issue 6, 2015 | pp. 1-6
Tungsten and vanadium were recovered from spent SCR denitration catalyst by high pressure leaching with Na2CO3.The effects were investigated of roasting pretreatment temperature,type and dosage of the leaching additive,Na_2CO_3 dosage,liquid-solid ratio,leaching time and temperature for tungsten and vanadium leaching.The phases of spent SCR denitration catalyst were analyzed by XRD characterization before and after leaching.The results show that spent SCR denitration catalyst can be leached without roasting pretreatment,and the optimized experimental conditions are as follows:Na_2CO_3addition of 20%,NaOH addition of 8%,liquid-solid ratio of 2∶1,leaching time of 2hand leaching temperature of 230 ℃.Under the above conditions,the leaching rates of tungsten and vanadium reach 75.06% and 89.35%,respectively.In addition,the XRD analysis results show that titanium exists mainly in the form of anatase TiO_2 in spent SCR denitration catalyst,and high-temperature roasting can promote TiO_2 transition from anatase to rutile,inhibiting tungsten and vanadium leaching.Part of tungsten may exist in TiO_2 in the form of solid solution,and therefore the microstructure of TiO_2 should be destroyed by strengthening leaching conditions to further improve the leaching rate of tungsten.
