Structure and thermodynamic activity of sooty carbon

Study into properties of the resource­saving chromium­containing briquetted alloying additive from ore raw materials

“…Using the lamp black has confirmed effectiveness of this carbon reducing agent, which is consistent with the results of paper [12]. The presence of metal Cr and carbides of Cr 7 C 3 and Cr 2 C 3 in the phase composition of carbon-thermal treatment products of oxide chromium-containing ore raw materials agrees well with the results of research reported in articles [13][14][15].…”

“…One of the effective carbon reducing agents is carbon black. Amorphous finely dispersed carbon black structure contributes to the activation of kinetics of reduction processes [12]. The specified properties make it possible to achieve a relative reduction in the time of reduction, and, therefore, to bring down the cost of technological energy.…”
