PLASMA JET CHEMISTRY.

Abstract

Three types of plasma jets are described: a noble gases plasma jet, a nitrogen plasma jet, and a plasma jet cathode as chemical feeder. Powder feeding devices and quenching devices are considered. The use of the plasma jet is described for several chemical reactions: metal oxides reduction, refractory metals nitrides formation, and refractory metals carbides formation. The temperatures attainable with plasma jets are in the range of 5000K to 50,000K. (Author)
