Aluminothermic production of titanium alloys (Part 2): Impact of activated rutile on process sustainability

The aluminothermic process provides a cost-reduced production method for titanium and titanium alloys by reduction of TiO2 with subsequent refining by electroslag remelting The aluminothermy involves high heating rates, high temperatures and short reactions times combined with a self-propagating beh...
