Production of metallic nanopowders (Mg, Al) by solar carbothermal reduction of their oxides at low pressure
The carbothermal reduction of MgO and Al2O3 in argon flow at low pressure allows to lower the onset temperature of metal vapor formation. Thermodynamic calculations indicate that metal formation begins at 1400 and 1700 K for a primary vacuum (1000 Pa), respectively, for Mg and Al. In the experimenta...
