Preparing Tungsten Trioxide Fiber

 Tungsten Trioxide FiberFiber refers to the material from continuous or discontinuous filaments thereof. In plants and animals, fiber plays an important role in maintaining organizations. Fibers can be woven into thin, thread and twine, paper or fabric woven fibrous mat; fibers are also used to manufacture materials, and other materials to form composite material. Natural fibers are naturally occurring, we can get fiber naturally, and fibers are divided into different types according to their origins, animal fibers, plant fibers and mineral fibers. In addition, there are chemical fibers, synthetic fibers, synthetic fibers, inorganic fibers and the like. Filling fibers can effectively improve the strength and rigidity of the plastic, reinforce plastic rigid structure.

Tubular tungsten trioxide nano fibers can be used to make gas sensors with high sensitivity and good stability; it shows a bright prospect in the field of gas sensor. Tubular tungsten trioxide fibers can be prepared by template method that has good controllability. This method can use its space limitations and the role of template debugging effect to control the size, morphology, structure and arrangement of the synthetic material.

Making tungstic acid as source of tungsten, placing tungsten acid in the container, and adding the container to the hydrogen peroxide and ethanol, and stirring constantly; immersing AAO template in tungsten trioxide sol about 30min, then rinsing with demonized water, and placing it about 30min in the air, and heating it at 550 ℃ for 6h in the environment, drying it, finally we can obtain similar tubular fiber tungsten trioxide .

 

AMT / SiO2 Catalyst Characterization Results

XRD patterns of AMT / SiO2 catalyst calcined at different temperatures can be seen in Figure 3. When the firing temperature is or more than 623K, there is only one large peak dispersion in the XRD spectrum of the sample that SiO2 diffraction peaks without shaped structure of carrier, indicating that particles of tungsten species on the catalyst surface are small or dispersed in a carrier surface in amorphous form. When the firing temperature is 773K, WO3 diffraction peaks appeared in the spectrum of the sample corresponding to the crystal phase, indicating that a high firing temperature treatment can make the AMT catalyst decomposed into WO3.
 
CO2-TPD spectrum of AMT / SiO2 catalyst calcined at different temperatures can be seen in Figure4 (a). The figure shows that a CO2 desorption peak occurs in the vicinity of 410K in the spectra of all sample, this peak slightly moving towards low temperature with increasing calcination temperature, and the peak intensity decreased. It shows that all the samples have a certain amount of presence of a weak base center, and with increasing calcination temperature, the strength and number of weak base centers on the surface of the catalyst are gradually reduced. In addition, there is a small desorption peaks in the samples which the baking temperature is 623 and 773K at about 542K, indicating a small amount of presence of moderate intensity base center in the sample.
 
Figure 4 (a) is NH3-TPD spectra of the sample. It can be seen in all the samples that NH3 desorption peaks appear about 416K. With the increasing firing temperature, the peak intensity decreased slightly, but the desorption peak temperature substantially unchanged. Which indicates the presence of weak acid center on the catalyst surface calcined at different temperatures, and the amount of weak acid center decreased when calcination temperature increases.

Waste Denitration Catalyst Recovering Tungsten and Vanadium

Denitration catalyst, being the hard-core of SCR denitrification technology, will lose activity due to wear and clogging, alkali metal poisoning and other reasons in the running process. Besides, it’s hard to separate V2O5 and WO3 out, because the two main components are so similar metal oxides, further more, there are T12 and glass fiber exist in the waste flue gas denitration catalyst. Nowadays, the way to deal with waste catalyst is landfill in universal, the technology about it is still in research stage. A research has introduced a method for recovering W and V from waste denitration catalyst, and the steps are as follows:

Honeycomb denitration catalyst

1. Grinding the catalyst and adding sulfuric acid to acid splitting, and then add water to obtain titanyl sulfate solution;
2. Filter the solution that obtained in step 1, collecting the residue for further using, and hydrolysis after the filtrate being heated and concentrated to generate product;
3. Filter hydrolysis products, and carry out settlement;
4. Take supernatant after filtering, and adding NH4Cl in the excess amount; filtering again after fully reaction to obtain ammonium metavanadate; then recovering V in the form of pure V2O5 from ammonium metavanadate by calcine;
5. Add excess amount of ammonia with 10%~28% concentration into residue obtained in step 2; and then heated to 80~100℃ to generate APT crystal; then carry out drying and calcinations to recover W in the form of WO3.

 

Tungsten Copper Process — Deformation Processing (2/2)

The related researchers adapted different proportions of tungsten-copper alloy (W-20Cu, W-30Cu, W-40Cu) products after infiltrated for cold rolling and intermediate annealing at the deformation process, each pass compression 5% -10%, up to 50% of the total final amount of deformation. Wherein the amount of deformation <25%, the material is only deformed in copper; when the amount of deformation reaches 50%, tungsten materials began to stretch along the rolling direction. Some foreign scholars sintered density of the obtained tungsten copper W-40Cu material extrusion, hot forging and cold forging obtained after tungsten copper rod; a sintered density of only 75% of the tungsten copper plate W-40Cu after cold rolling billet can be made of tungsten copper sheet; and cold rolled billet, and then cold-rolled, cold drawing was also prepared tungsten wire having a diameter of 0.3mm of material.

This deformation after machining tungsten copper alloy has fully dense tissue, mechanical strength and excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, which can be widely used in many areas of application and to meet different needs. Compared with cold deformation processing, hot deformation process refers to the metal under the recrystallization temperature of the plastic deformation, the common processing methods includes bending forging, hot pressing and pulling molding. Different from cold deformation processing (Since the process breaking the original balance of forces inside the metal, resulting in the release of stress, the original force balance is broken and the deformation, which does not reach yield point of the metal material), metal hot deformation processing has plastic deformation and reaches the yield point of the material. However, it is difficult to control the processing temperature, which can not ensure the structure and comprehensive properties of tungsten copper completely.

Tungsten Copper Process — Deformation Processing (1/2)

Tungsten copper product is commonly fabricated by powder metallurgy (PM) and infiltration. Due to the large difference of hardness and melting point of tungsten (W) and copper (Cu) and completely immiscible, it is also known as two-phase psudoalloy. Through its incorporation of tungsten powder or after forming part of a mixed copper powder special suppress internal communication pore tungsten skeleton, tungsten copper alloy is further formed by copper infiltration process with relatively high density, the excellent properties. At present, there have been superfine nano-crystalline tungsten-copper alloy, the microscopic structure is more reasonable and stable, relative density and intensity has also increased significantly, but its plasticity and ductility is relatively low, can not meet the particular requirements of some products (such as sheet, for wire, foil, etc.), and therefore the study of the deformation processing of tungsten copper alloy material has also become a hot topic.

For the deformation processing of tungsten copper material, we can specifically divide it into two types, one is cold deformation processing, another is heat deformation processing. From the definition, cold deformation processing is a kind of plastic deformation processing under recrystallization temperature. With the development of the core technology of mechanical processing industry, the production of more and more molded parts are manufactured by cold mold, types of cold deformation of the mold used more. Volume cold forging (cold heading, cold extrusion, stamping, etc.); sheet metal stamping (such as drawing, blanking, cutting, punching, etc.); material rolling (cold rolling wheel molding, etc.). Although many types of cold deformation of the mold, different working conditions, performance requirements are different, but the basic work in close: that was so in the cold state of the metal deformation, withstand greater shear force at work, pressure, bending force, impact and friction.
