Refining of Niobium by Levitation Melting Technique

The refining behavior of niobium, produced by an aluminothermic reduction reaction of Nb/sub 2/O/sub 5/, is studied using an electromagnetic levitation and melting technique. Under experimental conditions, significant refinement of niobium thermite occurs during levitation melting. Residence time pl...

description The refining behavior of niobium, produced by an aluminothermic reduction reaction of Nb/sub 2/O/sub 5/, is studied using an electromagnetic levitation and melting technique. Under experimental conditions, significant refinement of niobium thermite occurs during levitation melting. Residence time plays a significant role in the refining process, and the refining kinetics, during levitation melting, correlate well with the approximate equations for desorption of nitrogen and carbon. The purity of the levitation-melted product is compared to that of niobium processed by the conventional EB drip-melting process.
