Preparation of low-oxygen titanium powder by magnesiothermic reduction of TiO2 in KCl–MgCl2–YCl3 molten salt

The Kroll process is currently the only effective method in industry to produce sponge titanium with a low-oxygen concentration (500 ppm). However, it has several limitations, such as a long processing time, low efficiency, and high energy consumption, resulting in the high production cost of titani...
