摘要:
An improved process is described for producing titanium dioxide from ilmenite-type ore. The ore is digested with aqueous hydrogen fluoride, the resulting liquid mixture treated with a water-soluble oxidizing agent, and the ferric iron impurities, in the resulting digestion solution, at a pH between about 1.0 and 6.0, are extracted out with a mono-or dialkyl, or mono- or di-(alkylphenyl) orthophosphoric acid, such as di-(2-ethylhexyl) orthophosphoric acid. The remaining solution is treated with ammonium hydroxide to precipitate hydrated titanium dioxide which is then calcined to form pigmentary titanium dioxide. Alkali metal and ammonium salts of the organophosphoric acid are also useful in the process.

Titanium dioxide of improved properties for use as a pigment is obtained by a process in which a non-concentrated acid solution containing not more than 200 grams of TiO.sub.2 per liter of solution is partially hydrolyzed and filtered; and additional acid solution slowly added with heating to hydrolyze the remaining TiO.sub.2 and give a product which, on calcining has a color index of about 1500.
摘要:
The red mud by-product of the Bayer process by which aluminum oxide is reed from bauxite as an aluminate, is digested with concentrated sulfuric acid or with sulfur trioxide gas to produce sulfates that can be leached out to the resulting mass with water. The solution is then heated at a pH of 1 to precipitate titanium oxide hydrate by hydrolysis. The remaining sulfates of the solution are then obtained in solid form by evaporation, or by precipitation with acetone, and the solid is then roasted to convert the aluminum and iron to the oxide. After leaching out the sodium sulfate with water, the aluminum and iron oxide are separated by the Bayer process, which works in this case even though x-ray diffusion patterns show that the aluminum oxide is mainly .alpha.Al.sub.2 O.sub.3.

摘要:
The application is concerned with a process for the manufacture of a titanium dioxide pigment from a titanium sulfate solution by hydrolysis in the presence of nuclei. The latter may be formed externally from any suitable source of titanium sulfate solution and preferably, but not exclusively, from a portion of the titanium sulfate solution used in forming the hydrous TiO.sub.2 ; the nuclei being prepared by mixing the titanium sulfate solution, from whatever source, simultaneously with an alkaline reacting solution and subsequently curing the mixture at elevated temperature. In the present application "titanium sulfate solution" is understood to be a solution which may also contain other substances besides titanium sulfate; and may be obtained, for example, by digestion of titaniferous ores or slags using sulfuric acid, followed by dissolution of the resulting digestion cake.
摘要:
Process for the production of a finely divided oxide of a metal or silicon by the hydrolytic conversion of a volatile corresponding metal halide or silicon halide in a flame, said process comprising feeding the volatile halide in a mixture with a combustible hydrogen-containing gas and air or oxygen to a burner provided with a mouth emitting a flame, burning the mixture in a fire tube to form a first portion of water vapor, said burner surrounded by an annular chamber forming a nozzle through which hydrogen is passed to keep the mouth of the burner free of attachments of solid substances, the quantity of oxygen or air being sufficient for the practically complete combustion of the combustible gas, and the quantities of oxygen or air and combustible gas being sufficient to produce the first portion of water vapor which will at least suffice for the hydrolysis of the volatile halides, and further wherein said flame is allowed to burn in an atmosphere consisting of gases containing a second portion of water vapor, to avoid the formation of halogen gas in waste gases and separating the resulting oxide from other reaction products. The finely divided oxides are useful as additives and fillers in the manufacture of coatings, adhesives and elastomers.
摘要:
Process for the production of pigmentary titanium dioxide by converting an iron-containing titaniferous material such as ilmenite to titanium tetrafluoride and thereafter reacting the titanium tetrafluoride with sulphuric acid to form titanium sulphate, converting titanium sulphate to an aqueous acidic solution thereof and subjecting the solution to thermal hydrolysis to precipitate hydrous titanium dioxide which is then calcined.
摘要:
Titanium dioxide is recovered from ilmenite in high purity and high yield. The ore is leached with concentrated hydrochloric acid at room temperature to dissolve at least 80% of the titanium and iron values of the ore and to leave gangue material substantially undissolved. After separation from solid gangue material and conversion of ferric iron to ferrous iron, the titanium chlorides are hydrolyzed and titanium oxyhydrate is precipitated. A substantial proportion of the ferrous chloride may be removed from the solution by crystallization prior to the hydrolysis of the titanium chlorides. The titanium oxyhydrate, after separation from the mother liquor, and purified, if necessary to remove traces of ferric materials, is dried and converted into substantially pure pigment grade titanium dioxide. The iron values may be recovered from the mother liquor and a closed hydrochloric acid cycle may be established.
