Production of titanium carbide from ilmenite

The production of titanium carbide (TiC) powders from ilmenite ore (FeTiO3) powder by means of carbothermal reduction synthesis coupled with hydrochloric acid (HCl) leaching process was investigated. A mixture of FeTiO3 and carbon powders was reacted at 1500oC for 1 hr under flowing argon gas. Subse...
