To develop a direct production process for TiH powder from TiO, the reduction of TiO using Mg in molten MgCl - KCl salt under a high hydrogen chemical potential was investigated. The reduction of nano-sized TiO powder was conducted at 973 - 1073 K under an Ar or Ar and 10% H mixed gas atmosphere when the mass ratios of Mg to feed and salt to feed were 1.14 - 2.

In this study, the deoxidation process for off-grade titanium (Ti) sponge using magnesium (Mg) metal with a wire mesh strainer type of crucible was developed. Ti hydride (TiH) feedstock, which was prepared by hydrogenating off-grade Ti sponge, was deoxidized using Mg in a molten magnesium chloride-potassium chloride salt at 933 K under an argon and 20% hydrogen (H) mixed gas atmosphere. After deoxidation, the residual Mg-containing salt was separated in situ from the crucible to investigate the feasibility of minimizing salt loss during the leaching and production of pure TiH.

The mechanically-enhanced urea-formaldehyde (UF) microcapsules are developed through a multi-step in situ polymerization method. Optical microscope (OM) and field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) prove that the microcapsules, 147.4 μm in diameter with a shell thickness of 600 nm, are well-formed.
