Abstract
Calcium vapor reduction of niobium oxide compounds has been studied at temperatures from 1023 to 1123 K. The adiabatic temperature of calcium reduction of niobium pentoxide (3020 K) and the Mg4Nb2O9 niobate (2525 K) has been determined by thermodynamic modeling with the TERRA software suite. We have assessed the effects of process temperature, reduction time, and precursor powder particle size on the degree of reduction, specific surface area, and pore structure of the niobium powders.
期刊介绍:
Inorganic Materials is a journal that publishes reviews and original articles devoted to chemistry, physics, and applications of various inorganic materials including high-purity substances and materials. The journal discusses phase equilibria, including P–T–X diagrams, and the fundamentals of inorganic materials science, which determines preparatory conditions for compounds of various compositions with specified deviations from stoichiometry. Inorganic Materials is a multidisciplinary journal covering all classes of inorganic materials. The journal welcomes manuscripts from all countries in the English or Russian language.
