Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of artificial rutile stone, and in particular to a method for preparing artificial rutile by using titanium slag. Background Art
[0002] Artificial rutile is generally made through the following process: First, high-purity aluminum and titanium powders are mixed together and placed in a special reactor. Then, nitrogen and oxygen are added to the reactor, and high temperature and high pressure conditions are applied. This process allows aluminum and titanium to combine with nitrogen and oxygen to form a new crystal structure. Next, the reaction product is cooled to room temperature and taken out. At this point, the product appears red or purple, but does not yet have the clarity and brightness required for rutile. In order to further improve the quality of artificial rutile, subsequent processing steps such as annealing and cutting are required.
[0003] In general, the production of artificial rutile requires a high level of technology and equipment investment, but compared with natural rutile, its cost is lower and resources are easier to obtain, so it has broad commercial application prospects.
[0004] Therefore, the preparation of titanium powder is particularly important in the preparation of artificial rutile. At present, the two preparation methods of titanium powder are mainly as follows:
[0005] The chlorination method is one of the most commonly used methods for producing titanium powder in industry. Its main steps are as follows: natural titanium ore is leached, precipitated, and filtered to produce a titanium chloride solution; reducing agents such as sodium chloride and calcium chloride are added to the titanium chloride solution and reacted at high temperature to produce intermediate products such as titanium dichloride; these products are then reacted with hydrogen to produce titanium powder. This method can produce high-purity titanium powder, but it consumes a large amount of electricity and reducing agents and is complex to operate.
[0006] Iodination method is another traditional method for preparing titanium powder. Its main steps are as follows:
[0007] Titanium blocks or shavings are placed in a mixture of sodium iodide and potassium iodide, where they react at high temperature to produce titanium iodide and other products. These products are then reacted with pure hydrogen to produce titanium powder. While this method consumes less energy and costs than the chlorination method, it also has some drawbacks, such as unstable product quality and complex processes. Therefore, the chlorination method is more commonly used to produce titanium powder in modern industrial production.
[0008] The present application aims to prepare artificial rutile using titanium slag. Therefore, how to prepare titanium powder using titanium slag, and then mix the titanium powder and aluminum powder and prepare rutile through a series of operations is an urgent problem to be solved in the current production stage.
