Description

Reactions of aluminium- and calcium-thermal reduction of zirconium tetrafluoride with the formation of zirconium aluminides melting congruently and eutectics of the Zr-Al system have been analyzed thermodynamically. It has been assumed that it is possible to obtain alloy ingots of the eutectic composition containing 11 mass.% of aluminium and intermetallides of the composition of Zr4Al3 and ZrAl2 by the method of calcium-thermal reduction of zirconium tetrafluoride without preliminary heating of the charge. Presented are the advantages of the proposed processes over the known method of zirconium alloy production by alumothermal reduction of K2ZrF6 in the melt of the reducing agent
