Anode carbon residue is produced in the production of electrolytic aluminum. Its properties need to be studied for secondary utilization. In this paper, mineralogy of anode carbon residue from an electrolytic aluminum plant in Guizhou was studied. The anode residue chemical composition, structure, mineral composition, occurrence state of main elements, etc, was investigated. The results show that: Anode carbon residue is mainly composed of 14 minerals such as cryolite, cryolithionite, elpasolite and graphite. Among them, the opaque minerals are mainly graphite and the transparent minerals are mainly cryolite. Carbon in the form of independent mineral occurrence in graphite; fluoride in the form of independent mineral occurrence in cryolite, cryolithionite, elpasolite and fluorite; aluminum in the form of independent mineral occurrence in cryolite, cryolithionite, elpasolite, aluminium oxide and magnesium aluminate; sodium in the form of independent mineral occurrence in cryolite, cryolithionite, elpasolite. The mineralogical characteristics and occurrence state of carbon and electrolyte were studied, which provided a basis for the separation and recovery of carbon and electrolyte in anode carbon residue.

The paper presents the studies’ results of chemical composition, structure, and physico-mechanical properties of high-calcium ashes from the Kansk-Achinsk coals (2017-2019 selection). It was found that ash has a complex poly-mineral composition and contains hydraulically active minerals and oxides of СаОfr, β-C2S, CA, C3A, C4AF, C2F, CaSO4. According to the content of CaOfr, MgO does not meet standards’ requirements. The uniformity of the volume change is maintained by the composition with 50% of cement. The structure and hardening kinetics of ash and ash-cement stone compositions, obtained from the test of normal density, were analyzed. It was established that the hardening of compositions with ash from the Kansk-Achinsk coals was largely influenced by ash minerals. An equivalent amount of cement in composite binders cannot be replaced. In order to obtain a positive effect, compositions with ash instead cement of no more than 30% and a part of fine aggregate, without exceeding the ratio of ash: cement = 1: 1, should be used.

Samples of mafic intrusive rock were analyzed for their mineralogical and chemical properties. The textural relationship was studied using the petrographic microscope, elemental composition of minerals was determined using the Electron Microprobe and the whole rock chemical analysis was done using the XRF and ICP-MS. The following minerals were observed in order of abundance; pyroxene, amphibole, plagioclase, biotite, opaque minerals, quartz and chlorite, with apatite and zircon occurring as accessory mineral. Two types of pyroxenes were observed; orthopyroxene (hypersthene) and clinopyroxene. Texturally, amphiboles have inclusions of plagioclase and pyroxene. The plagioclase has undergone sericitization. The chemical composition of the pyroxene is En51.95Fs44.53Wo3.52, biotite has Fe/(Fe+Mg):0.42, Mg/(Fe+Mg):0.59, and plagioclase is Ab63.5An34.55Or1.95. Whole rock chemistry shows a chemical composition; SiO2: 45.15 %, Al2O3: 14.04 %, Fe2O3: 16.01 %, MgO: 5.65 %, CaO: 7.58 % and TiO2: 3.59 %. There is an enrichment of LREE and a depletion of HREE. Based on the minerals, mineral chemistry and the geochemistry of the studied rock, the rock is mafic and hydrous minerals formed by hydration recrystallization of pyroxene. The rock has extensively retrogressed but has not been affected by any form of deformation.

Abstract Chemical composition, structure, and technological properties have been investigated for metal powder compositions (MPCs) of a new six-component TiAl-based alloy with Gd microadditions: Ti-31.0Al-2.5V-2.5Nb-2.5Cr-0.4Gd, wt.% (Ti-44.5Al-2V-1Nb-2Cr-0.1Gd, at.%). Three MPCs fractions (10–63, 40–100, 80–120 μm) were produced by electrode induction melting and inert gas atomization technique and targeted for the additive synthesis of parts. It is shown that the chemical composition of the MPCs for the main elements corresponds to that of the electrode. In contrast, a 1.5-fold increase of the oxygen content in the MPCs was observed, which is being the result of natural oxidation of powder particles upon air environment due to developed specific surface. It has been determined that the phase composition of the MPCs (γ+α(α2)+β) differs from the equilibrium phase composition of the electrode (γ+α2)+β0/B2) and corresponds to a rapidly quenched metastable state, which indicates high solidification rates in the atomization process, exceeding critical cooling rates of the alloy. The technological properties, specifically the powder flowability, were found to be improved for 40–100 and 80–120 μm fractions, making them applicable for additive synthesis of parts from the studied alloy by selective electron-beam melting method

Ta–B–C coatings were non-reactively sputter-deposited in an industrial batch coater from a single segmented rotating cylindrical cathode employing a combinatorial approach. The chemical composition, morphology, microstructure, mechanical properties, and fracture resistance of the coatings were investigated. Their mechanical properties were linked to their microstructure and phase composition. Coatings placed stationary in front of the racetrack of the target and those performing a 1-axis rotation around the substrate carousel are compared. Utilization of the substrate rotation has no significant effect on the chemical composition of the coatings deposited at the same position compared to the cathode. Whereas the morphology of coatings with corresponding chemical composition is similar for stationary as well as rotating samples, the rotating coatings exhibit a distinct multilayered structure with a repetition period in the range of nanometers despite utilizing a non-reactive process and a single sputter source. All the coatings are either amorphous, nanocomposite or nanocrystalline depending on their chemical composition. The presence of TaC, TaB, and/or TaB2 phases is identified. The crystallite size is typically less than 5 nm. The highest hardness of the coatings is associated with the presence of larger grains in a nanocomposite structure or formation of polycrystalline coatings. The number, density, and length of cracks observed after high-load indentation is on par with current optimized commercially available protective coatings.
