PRODUCTION OF EXTREMELY PURE ZIRCONIUM

Patent Renner, H.
METHOD FOR COLLECTING AND SEPARATING THE REFRACTORY METAL COMPONENT FROM THE REACTION PRODUCTS IN THE PRODUCTION OF THE REFRACTORY METALS TITANIUM, ZIRCONIUM, VANADIUM, HAFNIUM, SILICON, THORIUM, CHROMIUM, OR COLUMBIUM

Patent Griffiths, K.F.

A method and the equipment used for collecting and separating reaction products in the production of the refractory metals Ti, Zr, V, Hf, Si, Th, Cr, and Nb are described. The process consists of collecting and gravitationally separating the metal product and reducing agent in the process in which the temperature of the collecting and separating reaction products is controlled by means of the deposition of a thin refractory metal sponge lining on the walls of a collection chamber, which acts as a thermal barrier. The general conditions are listed for the continuous reaction of metal product halide with amore »« less
PRODUCTION OF ZIRCONIUM HYDRIDE

Patent Merten, U.

A process is described for uniformly hydriding solid pieces of Zr and Zr alloys of considerable size without substantial cracking. Fully fabricated hydrides within fairly small tolerances can be produced by this method. (R.J.S.)
PRODUCTION OF HAFNIUM-FREE ZIRCONIUM COMPOUNDS

Patent Pilloton, R.L.

A simple process is given for separating Zr from Hf and vice versa. The process comprises dissolving the Zr and Hf tetrachiorides in an organic liquid which forms additional compounds with the chlorides, cooling the solution to 0 to -50 deg C, and precipitating HfOCl/sub 2/ from the solution by addition of concentrated HCl. After the HfOCl/sub 2/ is separated from the solution, ZrOCl/ sub 2/ may be precipitated therefrom by adjusting the HCl concentration. The organic liquid preferably is n-propyl formate or n-butyl formate. (D.L.C.)
PRODUCTION OF ZIRCONIUM AND HAFNIUM OXIDES IN A FLUIDIZED BED

Patent Hughes, W.; Evans, A.W.

A process is outlined for producing ZrO/sub 2/ and HfO/sub 2/ from their chlorides on a large scale. In this process, the chlorides are reacted with O/sub 2/ at ~1000 deg C in a fluidized bed of, e.g., zircon sand. Reactors for use with the process are described. (D.L.C.)
