摘要:
A process for producing a purified nickel hydroxide precipitate from a nickel-containing leach solution with impurities including one or more of the following: manganese, copper, zinc, iron and/or cobalt, so that the purified nickel hydroxide is suitable for pelletization with iron-containing ores and/or stainless steel production, includes treating the leach solution with a base to form a slurry of mixed hydroxide precipitate and low-nickel barren solution, thickening the slurry to form filter cake, washing the filter cake and contacting it with acid to dissolve nickel and other metals to produce a concentrated nickel-containing solution, subjecting the concentrated nickel-containing solution to solvent extraction with an organic acid extractant to remove metals other than nickel from the nickel-containing solution and form a solvent extraction raffinate of purified nickel solution and treating the solvent extraction raffinate with a base to precipitate the purified nickel hydroxide precipitate.

A process for synthesizing metal nanopowders by introducing metal carbonyl into an induction plasma torch. By taking advantage of the much lower dissolution temperature of carbonyl as opposed to the high melting temperature of conventional metal powder feeds less torch power is required. Moreover, in contrast to current powder production techniques utilizing electrode based plasma torches, the induction plasma torch does not introduce contaminants into the nanopowder.

The invention relates to an apparatus for the separation of particles contained in exhaust gases of internal combustion engines in which the exhaust gas flow is guided through a filter medium in which particles can be absorbed and held back (4) . The invention should improve the separation in a cost effective manner with respect to conventional particle filters. In accordance with the invention, the filter medium (1) is made from a metal open-pore foam having at least two layers (11, 12, 13) which each have a thickness, porosity and/or pore size in the flowthrough direction through the filter medium which differ from one another.

A solid oxide fuel cell anode is comprised of a nickel foam or nickel felt substrate. Ceramic material such as yttria stabilized zirconia or the like is entrained within the pores of the substrate. The resulting anode achieves excellent conductivity, strength and low coefficient of thermal expansion characteristics while effectively reducing the overall quantity of nickel contained in the fuel cell. Equivalent or better fuel cell anode characteristics result in the present invention as compared to conventional anode designs while simultaneously employing significantly less nickel.

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing components with a nickel base alloy as well as to components manufactured therewith. The respective components, in particular, are to have improved mechanical properties in comparison with the conventional solutions, and are to be producible in the most differently shaped form. During the production, proceeding takes place then such that a substrate core made of nickel or a nickel base alloy, in which nickel is included with a content of at least 20 wt%, will be coated on the surface with a binding agent as well as a metal powder in which nickel is included with a content of at least 20 wt% in addition to further alloy forming elements. Subsequently, a stepped thermal treatment is carried out in which the binding agent is expelled at first, and subsequent to this sintering of the mezai powder is performed which results in alloying up a nickel substrate core and/or which develops a solid surface coating made of nickel base alloy.

The invention relates to components which are produced or processed by powder metallurgy, and to processes for producing components of this type. The components produced by powder metallurgy are intended both to have porous regions and to provide fluid-tight properties, and it should also be possible to produce them at correspondingly low cost and suitably flexibly. For this purpose, a component of this type has at least one porous region, which is formed from an intermetallic phase or solid solutions. However, it may also have a corresponding surface coating. Moreover, in a component of this type there is at least one areal fluid-tight region which is formed from a metal or metal alloy of the corresponding intermetallic phase or solid solution.
摘要:
A process for decreasing the crystallinity of nickel hydroxide by generating and supplying large numbers of heteronuclei into the nickel hydroxide producing reaction system. Nickel sulfate and sodium hydroxide are initially forcefully and intimately combined to form a supersaturated solution of heteronuclei. These heteronuclei are introduced into a nickel powder containing slurry wherein nickel hydroxide having a crystallinity FWHM value of greater than about 0.5° is generated.
