DEVELOP PROCESS FOR AND ARC CAST 25 TO 50 POUND INGOTS OF TIN REDUCED MOLYBDENUM

Abstract

ONE 100-LB INGOT WAS MELTED. Product purity was quite good with the exception of S. The ingot has been broken down and recompacted with Sn powder for remelting. The distribution of Sn throughout briquettes has been a problem area. Further work needs to be done in this area for residual S has continually been noted in the end product. The Mo reduction facility was shut down, cleaned, and repaired. A total of 1484 lbs of SnS was recovered from the system during cleaning of the condenser and filter. About 25% of the SnS was found in the filter. (Author)
