    摘要: The invention relates to powder metallurgy, in particular to a method for metallothermal reduction of feedstock elements made from feedstock being a solid solution of oxides of various elements in titanium oxide, using magnesium and/or calcium as reducing agents. Processes include hydrolysis of an aqueous solution of a titanium-containing salt to obtain primary particles of crystalline titanium oxide, calcination of a precipitate of titanium oxides/hydroxides, formation of feedstock elements from a milled powder of a solid solution of dopants in titanium oxide, reduction of feedstock elements in one step using calcium metal or reduction of feedstock elements in two steps, using magnesium metal or calcium metal in the first step, and calcium metal in the second step. The aim of the invention is to produce alloy powders of titanium metal with a particularly low oxygen content.

    摘要: The present invention pertains to a method for electrolytic reduction of feedstock elements, made from feedstock, in a melt. In addition, the present invention relates to an apparatus for electrolytic reduction of feedstock elements, made from feedstock, and can be used for the reduction of oxides of metals belonging to Groups 3-14 of the Periodic Table. The method is implemented using the apparatus that, according to the invention, comprises an electrolyzer bath; an electrolytic cell; an electrolyzer bath insert plate; a cover with evolved gas outlets. Moreover, the electrolytic cell contains at least one cathode chamber and two anode plates, which are vertically arranged relative to each other, at least one current source, independently connected to the cathode chamber and one or two anode plates, and a device for horizontal reciprocating movement of the said electrolytic cell, which is found outside of the electrolyzer cover.
