The purification of graphite by treatment with halogens at temperatures up to 1000 deg C. Project DRAGON

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4120969
Methods of removing impurities in graphite are discussed. Experimental evidence is presented to show that it is possible at temperatures up to 1000 deg C to volatilize the following impurities by: (a) Iodination - magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, iron, silicon, and aluminium; and (b) Chlorination - magnesium, silicon, iron, aluminium, vanadium and titanium. Recommendations are made with regard to the employment of such treatments for graphite components in Dragon. (auth)
