What is Purification of Refractory Metals by Solid-State Refining about?

Different solid-state refining techniques can be used to decrease the interstitial impurity level of refractory and other high melting metals. Purification by external gettering is particularly effective for carbon, oxygen and nitrogen in vanadium and niobium. Oxygen and nitrogen can also be readily removed from niobium and tantalum by degassing in ultra-high vacuum. The advantages and limitations of electrotransport purification are discussed, and the degree of purity attainable by this technique is summarized for various metals. The potential of thermotransport purification is also evaluated.

Who reads Purification of Refractory Metals by Solid-State Refining?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Engineering.
