Microstructure and rheological properties of titanium carbide-coated carbon black particles synthesised from molten salt

In depth studies on cementitious nanocoatings on graphite for its contribution in corrosion resistance of alumina based refractory composite

“…The pitfalls of using graphites in castable, however, are their low water-wettability and poor oxidation resistance which result in more water consumption with a less homogeneous and porous refractory. Several ingenious methods are therefore being attempted to address all these requirements and materialize graphite retention in refractories for longer duration at extreme environments [12][13][14].…”

Bioactive core–shell structure of TiC/TiO2/SrCO3 coating on carbon black particles for bone tissue formation: Fabrication, characterization, and biological functions

“…TiC‐coated carbon black particles were prepared via MSS 23–25 . Ti and carbon black reactants were mixed in a molar ratio of 1:8 using an agate mortar and then combined with KCl.…”

“…TiC-coated carbon black particles were prepared via MSS. [23][24][25] Ti and carbon black reactants were mixed in a molar ratio of 1:8 using an agate mortar and then combined with KCl. The mixture was placed in an alumina crucible covered with its lid and loaded into an alumina-tube furnace.…”

Synthesis of Ti3SiC2 coatings onto SiC monoliths from molten salts

“…Aluminum was added next to increase the purity of the Ti3SiC2 powder. Some studies demonstrated the feasibility of using the low-temperature molten salt synthesis technique in the preparation of metallic carbides coatings on graphite flakes, carbon black particles or carbon fibres [21][22][23][24]. These studies used metallic titanium powders in alkali chloride salts at temperatures below 1000°C for a few hours.…”

“…TiC coatings on graphite flakes were obtained this way with high quality: crack free, homogeneous, and comprising nanosized TiC particles [21,22]. Homogeneous TiC coatings were also prepared on carbon black particles with thickness that could be readily tailored by adjusting the Ti/C ratio of the starting mixture [23]. The reaction of titanium and carbon fibres in molten salts yields also high-quality TiC coatings [24].…”
