A process for forming particulate tungsten alloys from the individual metal sources comprises forming an aqueous solution containing the individual metals for producing tungsten heavy alloys, producing a solid particulate material from the solution and injecting the particle material into a high temperature zone and retaining such material in the high temperature zone for a time sufficient to at least partially melt the metals that are alloying with tungsten while maintaining the temperature of those metals below the boiling point of the lowest boiling metal in the second component. The prealloyed composite powder contains tungsten grains below about 5 micrometers as a discontinuous phase and has a continuous phase of the tungsten and a second component selected from nickel, iron, copper and mixtures thereof.

Alloys of a first group of metals containing at least one iron group metal and one or more easily oxidizable metals can be formed by forming an aqueous solution of the first group of metals, forming solids containing the metals from the solution, reducing the solids to a metallic powder, converting the metallic powder to metallic alloy spherical powders, agglomeration the spherical powder with one or more easily oxidizable metals in a non-oxidizing atmosphere, thereafter the agglomerates are subjected to a sufficient temperatures under non-oxidizing conditions to form an alloy. Alternatively, the easily oxidizable metals can be agglomerated with the solids containing the iron group metal prior to converting the agglomerates to a spherical alloy powder.

A process is disclosed for removing chromium from cobalt. The process involves first contacting an acidic cobalt chloride solution with an oxidizing agent, followed by adjusting the pH to from about 3.2 to about 5.5 with a base at a sufficient temperature to form a first solid containing essentially all of the chromium and a portion of the cobalt and a first liquor containing the balance of the cobalt, and then separating the first solid from the first liquor. The first solid is then heated at a sufficient temperature to remove essentially all of the water and form a second solid which is contacted with sufficient water and ammonium hydroxide to form a slurry which is at a pH of greater than about 3.8. The slurry is made up essentially of a second liquor which contains essentially all of the cobalt which was present in the second solid and a third solid which contains essentially all of the chromium which was initially present in the acidic cobalt chloride solution and which is then separated from the second liquor.

A process is disclosed for producing high purity tantalum oxide from impure tantalum oxide. The starting tantalum oxide is dissolved in a hydrofluoric acid solution and insolubles are removed. The hydrofluoric acid solution containing the tantalum values is adjusted to a pH of from about 6.0 to about 8.0 with a base to precipitate tantalum which is separated from the mother liquor. The tantalum precipitate is then dissolved in an oxalic acid solution, the pH adjusted to from about 5.1 to about 5.5, and the resulting solution digested to precipitate a high purity tantalum compound which is separated. The high purity tantalum compound is then digested in hydrochloric acid to dissolve the compound and then precipitate pure optical grade tantalum oxide which is then separated from its mother liquor.

A process is disclosed for producing a high purity tantalum precipitate from an impure source by dissolving in a first hydrofluoric acid solution and digested to form a first precipitate of tantalum which dissolved in hydrochloric acid. The resulting solution is heated to form a second precipitate of tantalum which is dissolved in another hydrofluoric acid solution and digested to form a third precipitate of tantalum. The third precipitate of tantalum is then dissolved in an oxalic acid solution with the pH being adjusted to form another tantalum precipitate which is converted to tantalum oxide.
