Corrosion of chemical-mineralogical gradient submicron-porous Al2O3-MgAl2O4 composite in contact with molten converter slag

Penetration resistance and corrosion mechanism of a novel chemical-mineralogical gradient submicron-porous corundum-spinel composite (A90) to converter slag were investigated and compared to its dense corundum counterpart. Slag-penetration resistance of A90, due to its special submicron-pore structure, is superior to that of the corundum counterpart. Gradient Al₂O₃-rich spinels pre-embedded on the inner-surfaces of the pores are essential for making the slag deficient in Fe²⁺ and Fe³⁺ and CaO-rich. The resultant CaO-rich slag reacted with the corundum matrix of A90, building up a continuous dense layer composed of tightly interlocked highly refractory tabular CaA1₁₂O₁₉ and thus suppressing the further slag penetration and corrosion. Due to the lack of MgO in the corundum/molten-slag reaction system, large amounts of low melting iron oxides still remained in the liquid slag, making it much less viscous, so it could penetrate readily the corundum substrate via the grain boundaries in it at the test temperature.     

Niobium and tantalum recovery from the primary source and from tin slag,an industrial challenge: A review

Niobium (Nb) and Tantalum (Ta) are used to increase materials' mechanical resistance and produce lighter alloys. Worldwide Nb production reached 78 000 t in 2020. The reduced ore offer justifies the recycling of these metals from tin slag, contributing to the circular economy. Nb₂O₅ and Ta₂O₅ extraction either from the primary source or the tin slag is an industrial challenge. Nb and Ta dissolution processes already implemented are fluoride leaching, sulphuric leaching, alkaline leaching, and alkaline roasting. The fluoride process raises environmental concerns about waste control. The sulphuric method can be managed to have higher Nb and Ta extraction in a less aggressive process, if some changes are implemented, such as increasing the number of extraction steps, decreasing the pulp density, or increasing the temperature; however, the efficiency of this methodology must be tested for tin slag. The alkaline method seems to be more selective to Nb and Ta by reactants and temperature control. Despite those well-established Nb and Ta treatments, they must be adapted to recover Nb and Ta from slag. The slag has low Nb and Ta content, while high Si and Ca concentrations exist in the matrix. This paper brings the main methods used to extract the Nb and Ta from the primary resources and an overview of Nb and Ta recovery from the slag. This investigation comes as a tool to guide the development of new methods to recover Nb and Ta from low-grade sources such as tin slag.     

水胶比矿渣粉对混凝土力学性能影响的试验及机理研究

以不同配比的水胶比和矿渣粉掺量为影响因素,配制混凝土试件进行抗压强度正交试验,深入系统的研究其对高性能混凝土力学性能的影响。在此基础上,通过电镜观测,从微观机理角度对宏观性能进行分析解释。研究表明,混凝土的抗压强度均随着水化龄期的延长而增大。水化早期,掺有矿渣粉的高性能混凝土强度都较低;水化后期,矿渣粉活性效应发挥显著。在水胶比不变时,随着矿渣粉掺量的增加混凝土的强度是在逐渐降低的。使用42．5R普通水泥,控制水胶比在0．40—0．20,掺加矿渣粉,可配制出C45～C65的高性能混凝土。微观机理研究显示矿渣粉的存在使混凝土中孔隙减少,孔径变小,结构变密实,起到了很好的填充和微集料作用。

以铁合金厂含铝废渣为主要原料,通过高温固相反应制备钙钛矿/六铝酸钙复相材料,研究了不同ZrO2加入量及煅烧温度对合成材料相组成、微观结构影响.利用XRD、SEM及相关分析软件对烧后试样中结晶相的晶胞参数、晶胞体积、相对结晶度及微观结构进行计算和分析.结果表明,加入氧化锆会改变合成产物中结晶相的结构缺陷形式和数量,虽然导致了微观结构中液相量增大,烧后试样相对结晶度降低,但却促进合成产物中结晶相的晶粒长大.煅烧温度的升高也减弱了由于加入氧化锆对烧后试样结晶度降低的影响,并且随着热缺陷数量增大,合成产物中结晶相晶粒逐渐长大.

矿渣掺量对高水胶比水泥净浆水化产物及孔结构的影响

测定了水胶比为0．5、矿渣质量分数为30％～80％的硬化水泥浆体中Ca(OH)2和非蒸发水量、孔径分布及孔隙率,以确定矿渣在高水胶比条件下的合理掺量。结果表明：即使在矿渣为大掺量情况下也能够改善浆体孔结构,而非蒸发水量、孔隙率随矿渣掺量的变化而变化,并存在使水化产物含量最多、浆体孔隙率最低的矿渣最佳掺量。在矿渣为大掺量情况下,Ca(OH)2含量可降低到极低。在比较纯水泥浆体和掺矿渣浆体的非蒸发水量和孔隙率的基础上提出了矿渣最大有益掺量,矿渣的掺量低于此值时,可使材料的性能得到改善。
