INTRODUCTION1 * This dissertation was prepared in cooperation with the U* S. Bureau of Mines simultaneously with the preparation of the Materials Survey - Titanium for the Office of Defense Mobilization* The Materials Survey "volume contains technical and economic information on the geology, mining and processing of titanium ores and the manufacture and marketing of titanium tetrachloride, sponge, ingot, sheet, mill products, alloys and miscellaneous chemical, metallur­ gical and ceramic products* Over $0 intensive interviews were con­ ducted by the author with policy-making officials in private indus­ try and Government, in the preparation of these two documents; and extensive use was made of the National Archives and other facilities of the Federal Government* The views presented herein are those of the author and do not, of course, represent those of the Bureau of Mines* The following case study attempts to trace a number of institu­ tional and technological changes in the titanium industry, and to assess the significance of their various roles in the process of economic development* I t was written in the course of preparation by an agency of the Federal Government of an encyclopedic compila­ tion of information regarding basic raw materials, derived inter- 2 mediate products and finished products containing titanium* The industry is involved in the production of ilmenite, rutile and titanium slag (ores and concentrates branch); ferrotitanium and other alloying and metallurgical products, and titanium carbide (alloys and carbide branch); pure and extended titanium dioxide (pigment branch^ titanium sponge and high-purity ductile titanium metal (primary metal branch); titanium and titanium alloy ingot and mill products (fabrication branch)* What follows will be an attempt to describe, to an extent which is not possible even within the broad limits established for the 1 2 Materials Survey, a number of Instances of scientific Innovations and policy developments from their diverse origins in Government and business to their impact upon the structure of the titanium industry. The economic changes in these pages are recent and contemporary. In numerous instances, the material has had to be revised in the course of preparation as a result of events in the industry, or of changes in policies of the Federal Government. Virtually none of it extends back beyond World War I. Whatever conclusions which may be drawn from this #ork should therefore be considered as tentative* Another reason ier resisting the tendency to generalize from historical experience in this one industry, other than that the "returns'* are not a ll in, is immediately apparent. The development and growth of the world economy can be viewed properly only as an integrated and interdependent process, involving many simultaneous tendencies and a complex interaction of events. Like a motion picture composed of a series of frames, it may assume an entirely different appearance when observed a picture a t a time*^ ^ The phenomenon of economic growth encompasses at least the following aspects: (1) the development of fundamental science; (2) the application of science to economic ends; (3) the accep­ tance of Innovations by consuming and producing units; (I*) the tendency to seek xaaterial advance; (5) the propensity to consume; (6) population growth. — See Rostov, W.W., The Process of Economic Growth , W. W. Norton and Co., New York, 1952. Growth and development in various segments of the American economy has been influenced by activities of private institutions for 3 research, and of the universities and the Federal Government* The requirements of modem warfare have led scientific inquiry into such fields as aviation, ordnance, atomic energy, communications and shipping, which have accounted for more than three-fourths of the two billion dollars expended on research by the Federal Government during the five fiscal years 19U0-Ui*^ Whereas before the war private ^ Subcommittee Report No. $ , The Governments Wartime Research and Development, 19U0—Ul*; Report of""the" Subcommittee on War Mobiliza­ tion to the Senate Committee on Military Affairs, 79th Cong., 1st Sess., part I. industry financed about two-thirds of the nation*s research, with about one-sixth coming from Government and one-sixth, from universities and research foundations, in the fiscal year 19UU the Government was financing more than three-quarters of all research, the total annual expenditure of which was at least doubled. The research functions of the Federal Government in that year engaged some 36,000 civilian employees, of whom at least 20,000 were scientists and technicians.^ 5 Department of Justice, Investigation of Government Patent Practices and Policies! Government Printing Of/ice, Washington, 1). C., 19h7. Whether or not this proves to be the pattern of postwar research, Federal contribution to outside organizations and activities within Government laboratories on a large scale seem certain. (Scrutiny of departmental appropriations in Federal budgets for recent years failed to turn up a satisfactory measure of total expenditures on research by the Government since the above figures were compiled and published.) More than a dozen Federal departments and agencies regularly conduct or finance an appreciable amount of research and development work in science and technology as a part of th eir normal functions. The most important agencies in this respect are the Departments of Defense, Agriculture, Interior and Commerce. During World War II, temporary agencies such as the Office of Scientific Research and Development, and the wartime subsidiaries of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation also sponsored considerable research in significant fields. Hiese agencies have called upon and will continue to utilize the private and institutional labora­ tories to an ever increasing degree.

  • 2 Literature Review
    2 Literature review 2.1 Thin film solid state reactions A solid state chemical reaction in the classical sense occurs when local transport of matter is observed in crystalline phases and new phases are formed.1 This definition does not mean that gaseous or liquid phases may not take part in the solid state reactions. However, it does mean that the reaction product occurs as a solid phase. Thus, the tarnishing of metals during dry or wet oxidation is also considered to be a solid state reaction. Commonly, the solid state reac- tions are heterogeneous reactions. If after reaction of two substances one or more solid product phases are formed, then a heterogeneous solid state reaction is said to have occurred. Spinel- and pyrochlore-forming reactions are well-known examples of solid-state reactions where a ternary oxide forms.5–11 In this Ph.D. thesis, heterogeneous solid state reactions are considered. Extended crystal defects as high mobility paths for atoms are essential in the reactivity of solids. Furthermore, interfaces play an important role in the solid state reactions because during hetero- geneous reactions interfaces move and mass transport occurs across them. The interfaces can be coherent, semicoherent or incoherent.28 At the interface, chemical reactions take place between species and defects; they are often associated with structural transformations and volume changes. The characteristics of thin film solid state reactions running on the nanometer scale are con- siderably different from solid state reactions proceeding in the bulk. During bulk reactions, the diffusion process is rate limiting and controls the growth.

Structure refinement of polycrystalline orthorhombic yttrium substituted calcium titanate: Ca1−xYxTiO3+δ (x = 0·1–0·3) RASHMI CHOURASIA and O P SHRIVASTAVA∗ Department of Chemistry, Dr H.S. Gour University, Sagar 470 003, India MS received 23 May 2007; revised 7 September 2010 Abstract. The perovskite ceramic phases with composition Ca1−xYxTiO3+δ (where x = 0·1, 0·2and0·3; hereafter CYT-10, CYT-20 and CYT-30) have been synthesized by solid state reaction at 1050◦C. The structure refinement using general structure analysis system (GSAS) software converges to satisfactory profile indicators such as Rietveld 2 parameters: Rp, Rwp,RF and goodness of fit. The title phases crystallize at room temperature in the space group Pbnm (#62) with a = 5·3741(4) Å, b = 5·4300(4) Å, c = 7·6229(5) Å and Z = 4. Major interatomic distances, bond angles and structure factors have been calculated from the step analysis data of the compound. The crys- tal morphology has been examined by scanning electron microscopy. Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis of the specimens show that yttrium enters into the structural framework of CaTiO3. The particle size of the ceramic phases along major reflection planes ranges between 12 and 40 nm. The polyhedral (CaO8 and TiO6) distortions and valence calculations from bond strength data are also reported. Keywords.

The lead glycolate precursor has superior electrical properties than lead acetate trihydrate, suggesting that the lead glycolate precursor can possibly be used as a starting material mixed with other precursors such as titanium glycolate and sodium tris (glycozirconate) to produce lead titanate, lead zirconate, and lead zirconate titanate by sol-gel transition process. ∫∑§¥¬— àÕ ß“π«‘®—¬π’ȉ¥â»÷°…“°“√‡°‘¥ªØ‘°‘√‘¬“√–À«à“߇≈¥Õ–´’‡µ¥‰µ√‰Œ‡¥√µ ·≈–‡Õ∑‘≈’π‰°≈§Õ≈‚¥¬„™â “√ ‰µ√‡Õ∑‘≈’π‡µµ√–¡’π‡ªìπ§–µ–≈’ µå‡æ◊ËÕ„™â„π°“√º≈‘µ “√µ—Èßµâπ‚æ≈‘‡¡Õ√å§◊Õ‡≈¥‰°≈‚§‡≈µ [-PbOCH2CH2O-] ∑ ”§’Ë ≠™π— ¥Àπ‘ ßµ÷Ë Õ¢∫«π°“√𔉪„™à „π°“√ â ߇§√“–À— å “√‰¥Õ‡≈§µ√‘ °™π‘ ¥µ‘ “ßÊà ‰¥·°â à “√‡øÕ√‚√‰¥Õå ‡≈§µ√‘ °‘ “√·Õπ‰∑‡øÕ√å‚√Õ‘‡≈§µ√‘°·≈– “√‡æ’¬‚´‰¥Õ‘‡≈§µ√‘°®“°°“√ —߇§√“–Àå¥â«¬ “√ª√–°Õ∫ÕÕ°‰´¥å‡æ’¬ß ¢—ÈπµÕπ‡¥’¬«∑’ˇ√’¬°«à“ Oxide One Pot Synthesis (OOPS) ∑”„À≥⠓√µ—Èßµâπ‡≈¥‰°≈‚§‡≈µ¡’ ¡∫—µ‘∑“߉øøÑ“ ¥’°«à“‡≈¥Õ–´’‡µ¥‰µ√‰Œ‡¥√µ πÕ°®“°π’Ȭ—ß “¡“√∂𔉪„™âº ¡°—∫ “√µ—Èßµâπ™π‘¥Õ◊ËπÊ ‡™àπ ‰∑∑“‡π’¬¡ ‰°≈‚§‡≈µ·≈–‚´‡¥’¬¡∑√’ ‰°≈‚§‡´Õ√傧‡πµ‡æ◊ËÕº≈‘µ‡≈¥‰∑∑“‡πµ ‡≈¥‡´Õ√傧‡πµ·≈–‡≈¥‡´Õ√傧‡πµ ‰∑∑“‡πµ ‚¥¬ºà“π°√–∫«π°“√‚´≈-‡®≈∑√“π ‘™—Ëπ Key Words : OOPS, Sol-gel process, Dielectric materials §” ”§—≠ : OOPS °√–∫«π°“√‚´≈-‡®≈ «— ¥ÿ‰¥Õ‘‡≈§µ√‘° * Ph.D.

Calcium titanate (CaTiO3) was combustion synthesized from a calcium source of waste duck eggshell, anatase titanium dioxide (A-TiO2), and magnesium (Mg). )e eggshell and A-TiO2 were milled for 30 min in either a high-energy planetary mill or a conventional ball mill. )ese powders were then separately mixed with Mg in a ball mill. After synthesis, the combustion products were leached and then sintered to produce CaTiO3 ceramic. Analytical characterization of the as-leached combustion products revealed that the product of the combustion synthesis of duck eggshell + A-TiO2 that had been high-energy-milled for 30 min before synthesis comprised a single perovskite phase of CaTiO3.
