  • Crude Ticl4 Purification: a Review of the Current State of the Art and Future Opportunities

    Crude Ticl4 Purification: a Review of the Current State of the Art and Future Opportunities

    Crude TiCl4 purification: a review of the current state of the art and future opportunities L. Hockaday and A. Kale Mintek, Randburg, South Africa Raw titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) is produced by chlorination of titania feedstock. Prior to its utilization in the manufacture of titanium dioxide pigment or titanium metal, the TiCl4 is purified by adding reagents that react with the impurities in the crude TiCl4, followed by distillation of the mixture. The current state of the art in purification of crude TiCl4 was surveyed. Tests were conducted at the laboratory scale to assess the efficiency of various additives used in the purification process to minimize the vanadium content in the distillate. The effects of various reagents, namely oleic acid, sodium oleate, potassium oleate, and copper on the purification of crude TiCl4 were compared. The purified TiCl4 was water-clear in aspect and analysed < 2 ppm vanadium for all reagents tested. Possible reactions between the impurities in the crude TiCl4 and the reagents are investigated thermodynamically with the FactSage program. INTRODUCTION Titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) is obtained by the chlorination of a titanium-bearing mineral such as ilmenite and rutile, as well as from titanium slag. The chlorination process usually takes place in a fluidized bed in the presence of chlorine gas and a reducing agent such as petroleum coke, resulting in crude titanium tetrachloride. TiCl4 is an intermediate product in the production of titanium dioxide (TiO2) pigment and titanium metal. The pure form of titanium dioxide is used in the pigment industry for paints, food colouring etc., and titanium metal is widely used in the aerospace, medicine, sport, and semiconductor production industries.
  • Toxicological Profile for Vanadium

    Toxicological Profile for Vanadium

    VANADIUM 107 4. CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL INFORMATION 4.1 CHEMICAL IDENTITY Vanadium is a naturally occurring element that appears in group 5(B5) of the periodic table (Lide 2008). Vanadium is widely distributed in the earth’s crust at an average concentration of 100 ppm nd (approximately 100 mg/kg), similar to that of zinc and nickel (Byerrum 1991). Vanadium is the 22 most abundant element in the earth’s crust (Baroch 2006). Vanadium is found in about 65 different minerals; carnotite, roscoelite, vanadinite, and patronite are important sources of this metal along with bravoite and davidite (Baroch 2006, Lide 2008). It is also found in phosphate rock and certain ores and is present in some crude oils as organic complexes (Lide 2008). Table 4-1 lists common synonyms and other pertinent identification information for vanadium and representative vanadium compounds. 4.2 PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Vanadium is a gray metal with a body-centered cubic crystal system. It is a member of the first transition series. Because of its high melting point, it is referred to as a refractory metal (Baroch 2006). When highly pure, it is a bright white metal that is soft and ductile. It has good structural strength and a low- fission neutron cross section. Vanadium has good corrosion resistance to alkalis, sulfuric and hydrochloric acid, and salt water; however, the metal oxidizes readily above 660 °C (Lide 2008). The chemistry of vanadium compounds is related to the oxidation state of the vanadium (Woolery 2005). Vanadium has oxidation states of +2, +3, +4, and +5. When heated in air at different temperatures, it oxidizes to a brownish black trioxide, a blue black tetraoxide, or a reddish orange pentoxide.

  • Thin Films for Smart Windows: Synthesis of Temperature-Responsive Vanadium Oxide for Energy-Efficient Glazing Applications

    Thin Films for Smart Windows: Synthesis of Temperature-Responsive Vanadium Oxide for Energy-Efficient Glazing Applications

    Thin films for Smart Windows: Synthesis of Temperature-Responsive Vanadium Oxide for Energy-Efficient Glazing Applications Delphine Malardé A thesis submitted to University College London in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Chemistry University College London 2019 Declaration ‘I, Delphine Malardé, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis.' Delphine Malardé 2 Abstract The material presented in this thesis highlights different ways of producing temperature-responsive monoclinic VO2 [VO2(M)] for energy-efficient glazing applications, and the improvement of their thermochromic properties. VO2(M) has been widely studied due to its specific thermochromic properties, which make it a promising material to use in home and commercial façade glazing for reducing energy consumptions. VO2(M) thin films were deposited on glass substrate using atmospheric chemical vapour deposition (APCVD) - a well-known deposition process commonly used in industry. The thermochromic properties of the films were optimised, which resulted in a doubling of the visible light transmittance (TLUM) and a fivefold increase in the solar modulation efficiency (ΔTSOL). Further improvements of the thermochromic properties were carried out by the synthesis of VO2-based multilayers. Aerosol-assisted chemical vapour deposition (AACVD) was also used to produce VO2(M) thin films from a newly produced vanadium alkoxide precursor. Furthermore, this precursor showed to be ideal for the formation of V2O3 films with bixbyite structure, which had interesting gas sensing properties. This is the first time that bixbyite-type V2O3 has been synthesised as thin films using AACVD.

    3,467,637 United States Patent Office Patented Sept. 16, 1969 1. 2 diene (hereinafter called “bicycloheptadiene'). The reac 3,467,637 tion is carried out using a transition metal catalyst of the LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT OLEFIN INTER Ziegler type. POLYMERS PREPARED IN THE PRESENCE OF The process described and the copolymers produced in BICYCLO2.2.1]HEPTA-2,5-DIENE Paul J. Prucna, Cheswick, Pa., assignor to PPG Indus the above manner have several distinguishing and ad tries, Inc., a corporation of Pennsylvania Vantageous characteristics. These include: No Drawing. Filled June 1, 1965, Ser. No. 460,551 (a) The process produces low molecular weight co int. C. C08f 15/40, 1/42 s polymer in good yields using easily practised reaction U.S. C. 260-80,78 8 Claims conditions; (b) Varying ratios of ethylene to the other monoolefin O can be employed, permitting variation in product struc ture and properties; ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE (c) The products are essentially linear and homogene This invention relates to low molecular weight poly ous in structure; mers of ethylene and other alpha monoolefins produced 5 (d) The copolymers are readily dissolved in common by reacting said monomers in the presence of a Ziegler organic Solvents, this being true even with copolymers catalyst and small amounts of bicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5- containing low proportions (e.g., below 20 percent) of diene. The copolymers are useful inter alia in coatings, propylene or other comonomer, whereas ordinarily such adhesives and as tackifying resins. copolymers are quite crystalline and insoluble; and 20 (e) The copolymers are stable and have good aging Stacteristics, attributable to their saturated linear back Oe, This invention relates to low molecular weight co The preferred comonomer with ethylene is propylene, polymers of ethylene and other monoolefins, and, more but other terminal monoolefins such as butylene or iso particularly, to such copolymers produced in the presence 25 butylene can also be utilized.
