TITLE: New method of preparing phosphides by reduction of oxides with phosphine PERIODICAL: Zhurnal neorganicheskoy khimii, v. 6, no. 3, 1961) 749-751 TEXT: Because of their valuable and interesting properties as semiconduc- tors, the phosphides of metals and non-metals have found wide application in pyrotechni,::s, in metallurgy for special.coatings of steel parts, and for refining the structure of alloys. The conventional methods of preparing phosphides by direct reaction of,metals with phosphorus and by reaction of metallic halides with gaseous phosphorus compounds, required a-complicated equipment and were very time-consuming. A new method of preparing phosphides by the action of phosphine on oxides of metals and non-metals was devised. It bases upon the reaction MeO + PH 3 ~ MeP + H2 0, in which,phosphine dis- sociates to phosphorus and atomic hydrogen, which promotes the reduction of oxides. The method was successfully used in the production of gallium phosphide. The gallium oxide applied is obtained by dissolving metallic Card 1/2 899014 S/078,/61/006/003/019/022 New method of B121/B208 . . gallium in concentrated nitric acid and by subsequent thermal decomposition of the resultant gallium nitrate at 6000C. It is then completely converted to the oxidic form at 10000C. The resultant gallium phosphide is a yellow powder, insoluble in water, but soluble in mineral acids and alkali lyes~ when heated. Chemical analysis of gallium phosphide indicated 69.02~6 Ga, 30-78~6 P` corresponding to the stoichiometric composition. X-ray analysis showed a cubic lattice of the sphalerite type with a = 5.45 A which is in good agreement with the data of Ref. 9 (5-436 A) and Ref. 10 (5-4504 A).

TITLE: On the width of the forbidden gap in boron carbide PERIODICAL: Ukrayinslkyy fizychnyy zhurnalp v. 6, no. 5, 1961, 687 - 689 TEXT: The temperature dependence is investigated of the resistivi_- ty of commerqial boron carbide and of relatively pure boron carbide. The specimens were prepared by hot-pressing in graphite molds. The width of the forbidden gap was calculated from the temperature de- pendence of the resistivity; it was found to be approximately 1.64 ev. The commercial B40 contained Fey Sig and Cr impurities, as well as traces of Zn, Sb, Cu and Ni. The pure boron-carbide.was obtained by hot-pressing in an argon atmosphere. The temperature dependence of the resistivity of commercial B4C was measured up to 20000C, and of the pure B40 up to 160000; the measurements were conducted by a method given in the references. The results of the measurements are shown in figures.

The temperatures of the corresponding transitions are however dif- ferent for each of the boron-carbide types, as well as for the si- licon carbide. Thus, the transition to intrinsic conductivity of ~ pure B40 takes place at 1100-115000 as compared to i6000C for SiC. The act-1vation.energy of the electrons, calculated from the tempera- ture dependenceV*f-the resistivity, is approximately 0.7 ev for pure B4C in the temperature range 1400 - 15500C and in the tempera- ture range 1700 - 20000C - approcimately 1.64 ev. In the authors' opinion, 097 ev. is not the width of the forbidden gap, but the transition energy of electrons. Intrinsir~ conductivity appears at a temperature of nearly 17000C9 and the width of the forbidden gap is approximately 1.64 ev. The energy bands of B40 are shown in a figu- re, and the transition between bands is explained. The electrical conductivity in BtC is mainly due to the flow of holes in the filled band, and of elec rons - in the conduction band.

TITLE: S,-nthesis and physicochemical properties of strontium, hexaboride PERIODICAL: Zhurnal neorganicheskoy khimii, V. 6, no. io,i961, 2243-2248 TEXT: The authors synthesized SrB6 by the reactions SrO+B4P+2B-Sr]36+Co (I) and SrO +7B =SrB6 +(BO) (II). Initial substauces were BrO obtained by heating 96.37 % SrC03 to 12500C, B4C, and 98.4 % B. The composition of briquetted charges corresponded to the reaction equations. They were heated to 1000-20000C for 1 hr each. Then, their composition ias analytically determined. Heating was conducted in an electric.vacuum furnace. The pressure in the furnace was determined according to G. V. Samsonov (Ukr. khim. zhurn., 23, 287 (1957)). Reaction I showed a pressure increase at 12500C caused by SrO reduction in which Sr evaporated. In the range of 1000-12000C the reaction proceeds very slowly. In the range of 1500-17000C, the SrB 6 yield was only 60-70 % due to evaporation Card 1/3 27896 S/078/611/006/010/003/010 Synthesis and physicochemical properties... B1011/?122.6 of Sr. In the range of 1600-20000C, SrB 6 formed so rapidly that Sr did not volatilize. The yield increased to 87 %. Since reaction I yielded no carbon-free product (0,44 % C at 20000C), reaction Ii was studied. Herel a minimum yield of SrB 6 (62.9 %).was observed at 16000C due to rapid evaporation of Sr and B. Maximum yield (75.4 %) was obtained at 18000c, the product being free from C. The following physicochemical data are mentioned; Heat of formation of SrB6 -50.4 kcal/mole; radiation coefficient =0.79 at A -0.655 mp between 800 and 18000C. Between 1400 and 21000C, vapor pressure follows the equation: log pmm =6,43 -21423/T. Therefrom, the boiling point of SrB 6 is calculated to be 54000C. Heat of sublimation was found to be 97.2 X3.0 kcal/mole. For samples pressed at. 21000C and 150 kg/cm2 (residual porosity about 10 %), the following data were found: Electrical resistivity -191.8 gohm-cm (referred.to material 2 free from pores), microhardness =2900t'.90 kg/mm. .

TITLE: Relaxation processes during hot pressing of molybden" carbide PERIODICAL: Fizika metallov i metallovedeniye, 1961f Vol.12, No.1, Pp-145-148 TEXT: The density of sintered powder compacts, prepared-.by the hot pressing method,depends, in addition to other factors, on the manner in which the pressure is taken off the pressed component. If the load is taken off the compact at the sintering tempe-rature, the size of the compact gradually increases (i.e. its density decreases) after the removal of the load' - The obje ct of the present investigation was to study this after-effect ("relaxation. elasticity") on hot-pressed M02C. A M02C powder, prepared by direct reaction between molybdenum and carbon and characterized by a particle size of 0.5 to 40 ii, wasusedin the hot pressing experiments carried out at 2000 to 2300% on a manually-operated lever-actuated'press. The powdiar, placed in a graphite die of 8 mm diameter, was sintered'for 2 to 5 minutes at a given temperature under a pressure of 115 kg/cm2, after which the load Card 1/4 S/126/.61/012/001/017/020 Relaxation processes dVVg hot E193/E480 was taken off and the compact was held at the temperature for a further 0 to 20 minutes. The compact was then rapidly cooled-and its density determined by the hydrostatic weighing method. The results are reproduced in Fig.1, where the density (g/cm3) of sintered compacts is plotted against the sintering time (minutes) at temperatures (*C) indicated by each curve, the broken parts of these curves relating to sintering under pressure. It will be seen that upon the removal of pressure from the compact its density, decreased with time to approach an equilibrium or quasi-equilibrium value a- whose magnitude depends on the temperature and the density at-tained at the moment of removal of the pressure.

X-ray spectrographic studies''were carried out on apparatus described earlier by I.B. Staryy, (Ref-7: Izv. AN SSSR, ser. fiz., 1958, Vol.20, 798). The crystalline structure of titanium nitride is always octahedral. Decreasing nitrogen content in the nitride phase, although maintaining the octahedral coordination, should lead to a reduction in the role of the p-functions, decreasing their contribution to the d-band and therefore decreasing the coefficient of absorption in the corresponding spectral region; this was actually observed for all compositions, except those with 21.2 and 22.4 wt.% nitrogen, which very nearly correspond to the stoichionetric:composition of TiN. Another explanation of the change in the fine structure of absorption spectra is that in the nitride phase there is a considerable ionic component in the bonds which decreases with transition from the samples deficient in nitrogen to the compound with stoichiometric composition. This is confirmed.by.results of measurements of the electrical properties and micrahardness of the samples. S.N. LIvov and V.F.

According to one of the-authors (Ref.l: Samsonov G.V. 2Zhurnal strukturnoy khimii, 1966, 1, 447) these are characterized by a combination of metallic and ionic bonds, whereby the latter predominate to some extent. Th is is due to the high ionization potential of the nitrogen atom and the low acceptor ability of the incomplete d-shell of the chromium atom. This assumption on the nature of thechemical bondlin nitride phases of chromium is confirmed by the.results of X-ray structural investigations, according to which the chemical.bond in the higher nitride Cr 2N approaches the type of bond of the chromium oxide Cr 20 3* In this paper the electricand Sal.vano- Card I/ Electric and galvanomagnetic ... S/126/61/012/004/021/021 E073/E535 magnetic properties of chromium nitrides are studied. The compact specimens were produced by sintering briquettes with a porosity of 20-29% pressed from powder of electrolytic chromium. The sinter- ing was at 9500C (for alloys with a cotrposition approaching CrN) to 13000C (for alloys approaching the composition of Cr N) for durations of 3 to 4 hours in nitrogen which was carefulfy purified from oxygen. The porosity of the specimens varied between 0 and 5',/G. This method of preparing specimens enabled avoiding'changen in their phase state and the formation of carbonitride phases which are unavoidable in hot pressing of preliminarily manufactured chromium nitride powders. From thus produced specimens the specific electric resistance 0 and the absolute coefficient of thermo e.m.f. a Tv the Hall coefficient R and the thermal conductivity x were determined. The results are entered in a table, which also contains data from the literature for pure chromium as published'by A.

It was found that in contrast to most of the intermediate phases (including chromium (Siritctiirc and properties of hinary metallic systems) Card 2/ I-Jectric and gaivanoinagnetic ...

Similarly, the Hall coefficient and the thermo e.m.f. coefficient increase with increasing nitrogen content. On the other hand. the thermal conductivity of the higher chromium nitrides-*is-lower-i-,than of the lower chromium nitrides. This behaviour can be qualitatively explained on the basib of the electron structure of chromium proposed by Ye. S. Borovik and V. T.

In Fig.1 the dependence of the pressure on the holding time in the reaction of La203 W'th B40 is demonstrated. The obtained Products were subjected to chemical and x-ray analysis with a PKA (RKD) camera and Cu-source. The obtained experi- mental results are presented in Tables 1 and 2. Both reactions (1) culd (2) start at 1,200-1,3000C and terminate.after I hr at -1,500-1,6000C. Thus op- .timum temperature.is in the range of 1,500-1,6oo0c. Reaction (2) gives a carbon-free product. At higher temperatures losses of lanthanum. dud to eva- Poration take place in reaction (2). Approximate heat.of formation for-LaB 6 was determined by tensiometric analysis with 7112-3t6-5 kcal/mOle Tempera- ture dependence of the true specific heat of LaB is op = 21-73+2;.4-~10-3-T Cal/mole,-degree.

TITLE: Kinetics of the oxidation of chromium carbides PERIODICALt Zhurnal fizicheskoy khimii, v. 35, no. 2p 1961, 365 366 TEXTi A comparative study has been made of the oxidation kinetics of pow- der and compact chromium oxide specimens obtained in a fairly pure state by the methods described in the papers (ief. 5 1 Zh. prikl. khimiij ~_29 55, 1959; Ref- 4 t Zh. prikl. khimii, 32, 1505, 1959). The average grain dia- meter of all carbides was 5 - 8tt ; the porosity of the sintered Cr C 3 2 specimens was 5-6 %, and that of Cr 7Cr3was 18 - 2o %. The dpecimens were burned in a Mars furnace, and the CO 2 liberated by burning'was determined by a volumetric absorption procedure. Oxidation took one hour at 400 10000 C.

TITLE: Eleotrical properties of hexaborideB of alkaline-earth metals, rare-earth metals, and thorium PERIODICAL: Doklady Akademii nauk SSSR, v. 137, no. 31 19619 646-647 TEXT: The electrical properties of hexaborides of alkaline-earth metals, rare-earth metals, and actinides are of practical interest because of the use of these compounds as cathodes in electronics. As the data available were obtained unsystematically and under different experimental conditions, it was the purpose of the present study to measure electrical resistance, Hall effect, thermo-emf and thermal coefficient of electrical resistance on the same samples. Parallelepipeds with the dimensions 12 x 2-5 x 0.5 mm were cut from hot-pressed borides. The porosity of the samples was 1.5-22%. To warrant satisfactory contact, electrolytic copper was applied on the ends of the samples. The Hall coefficients were measured in a field of 12,500 oe. The absolute value of the thermo-emf was calculated by taking into account the thermo-emf of copper with Card 1/4 21572 S/02 61/137/003/026/030 Electrical properties of B101YB208 which the samples were coupled. 3-8 samples of each compound were studied so that electrical resistance and Hall constant could be extrapolated for zero porosity. Results are given in Table 1. To study the applioabil- ity of the single-zone model, the following was calculated: 2 2 2 R/e = n+u+ - n_u_ , as well as the concentration n* of the effective carriers and their mobility u*. The comparatively low resistance of hexaborides of bivalent metals in spite of low concentration'of free electrons is explained by the high mobility of the carriers. The low thermo-emf of Th and trivalent metals may be explained by a high con- centration of free electrons. It is pointed out that.----a similar anomaly as that observed in the temperature dependence of the Hall effect of SmB6 was also found in metallic samarium.

TITLE: The physical properties of titanium nitride in the region of homogeneity PERIODICAL: Akademiya nauk SSSR. Doklady, v. 138, no. 2, ig6i, 342-343 TEXT: The authors investigated the microhardness and resistivity of nitrogen - titanium alloys in the region of homogeneity of the TiN phase. Microhardness was determined on powders which had been prepared by nitra- tion of pure Ti powder (99.8 % Ti,-O.1 % Ca, 0.09 % Fe and 0.02 % H).. The powders contained 35.6-49.8 % N. Briquets were sintered (pressed with 2 2-4 tons/cm , sintered at 900-13000C for 2-4 hr) to measure the,resistance. Subsequently, the samples contained 34.7-49-8 % N. Fig. 1 graphically shows the microhardness, determined with a load of 50 g, as a function of the nitrogen content. Figs. 2 and 3 show the resistance at room tempera- ture and high temperature (up to 20000C). The microbardness of TiN depends linearly on N in the same way as the microhardness of TiC, ZrC, Ta2C and Card 116 23833 The physical properties of titanium... S/020/61/138/002/016/024 B104/B207 TaC on the C content. For carbides, however, extrapolation of the micro- hardness to 0 % C gives approximately the microhardness of the metal. This is not the case for TiN. The authors explain this by the fact that a considerable amount of ionic bond'oocurs in TO which causes the chemical bond, the electron structure, and the electron density to assume a form different from that of carbides; in the latter, electron structure, chemical bond, and electron density are similar as in metals. This is due to formation of metal-metal bonds causing a reduction of the titanium electron ratio in the bonds with nitrogen, a lesser disturbance of the nitrogen valency electrons,- and a corresponding increase of the energy difference between the nitrogen and titanium atoms. Therefore, the dependence of the resistance of titanium nitride differs from that of titanium carbide (Fig. 2). Fig. 3 shows that TO with approximately stoichiometric nitrogen content (48-4 %) reveals an almost linear function between resistance and temperature. A maximum occurs at 18000C. From these diagrams the authors conclude that in the regions of homogeneity of this.compound, a reduction of the nitrogen content affects an increase of the ion bond.- Finally, it is stated that the same effect may also be expected in the nitrides of other transition metals., There are 3 figures Card 2/6 23833 S/02o/61/138/00*2/016/024 B104/B207 The physical properties of titanium... and 9 Soviet-bloc references.

Kie-q,'Izd-vo AN Ukr.SSR. lc,)62, 5 - 12 MaT: For the purpose of facilitating the development of refractory alloys with prescribed properties, the author investigates.the physical properties of transition metals (groups III - VIII of the perio4ic system) combined with non- metallic materials and attempts to establish the basic regularities In their- changes with varying crystalline and electronic structures of refractory com- pounds. According to the concepts of several foreign authors it is assumed that the nature of bond iszbrongly affected by the degree of incompleteness In the d- and f-electron shells of transition metal atoms. The evaluation of this degree of incompleteness is based on the criterion 11Nn, named the acceptor capacity of Card 1/3 S/849/62-/000/000/001/016 On the continuous-discrete nature of ... A006/A101 the transition metal atom, and on the ionization potential of non-mbtallic atoms. Depending on the number of electrons, n, in the incomplete d-level, the main quantum number of this level, N, and the ionization potential of the non-metal- lic atom, I, changes take place in the electronic concentration between the ske-, letons of atoms in the lattice, and in the nature of its distribution. An in- creasd of criterion 1/Nn causes a shift of the relative maximum of electronic concentration toward the side of the metallic atom (if I = const); at increasing I and constant I/Nn of the metallic atom skeleton the relative maximum of elec- tronic concentration is shifted toward the non-metallic atom, entailing corres- ponding changes in the bond from a metallic to an ionic nature. At very high I/Nn values of transition metals and in their combination Iwith.non-transition metals, characterized by low I values, intermetallic phases areformed in which the d-levels can be filled-up at the expehse of outer electrons of non-transition metals. In such a manner variations of 1/Nn and I entail a multiple but not in2 finite number of combinations of these criteria, which in turn, predetermine the, peculiar continuous-discrete nature of changes in the bond type and the physical! and chemical properties of the corresponding compounds, as in the given case, ofi transition metals combined with non-metallic materials. The practical applica- Card 2/3 s/849/62/ooo/ooo/ool/016 On the continuous-discrete nature of...

As a result, ways can be Indicated for the development of metals with ultrahigh transition points.

Molybdenum silicide powders Mo 3Si, Mo5S'3 and MoSi 2' were prepared by sintering pressed mixtures of components in argon atmosphere.. Specimens, 6 mm in diameter and 15 mm high, were not pressed; . Their residual I porosity was 2 - 8%. The temperature dependence of electric resistivity and 'thermo-emf of the compounds were determined for a 250 - ;3000K temperature range. The measured differential thermo-emf was converted to an absolute.value using the temperature dependence of absolute thermo-emf of a platinum comparison elec-,! trode for MoSi and of an alumel electrode for Mo Si The Hall constants were 2 5 3- Card 1/3 S/849/62/C 00/000/0 1 P-10 16 Electric properties of molybdenum silicides Aoo6/Aioi measured in a constant magnetic flux of 12,000 oersted strength at about. 300 amp/cm2 current density.

TITLE Activated sintering of aiobium carbide PERIODICAL: Poroshkovaya metallurgiya, no. 2 1962, 38-43 TEXT: Niobium carbide is used in construction of high-temperature resistance furnaces and for high temperature thermocouples. Sintering of niobium carbide should be done at temperatures up to 3000'C which are, however, difficult to attain. This work investigates the possibilities of lowering sintering tempera- tures of niobium carbide poweders by activating the sintering process. Since additions of nickel fail to activate the process to any substantial extent, the authors used 270 mesh niobium carbide powder containing 88.5 % of Nb and I I % of C with an addition of I % of Fe and 2 % of CoCI2.. Physicochernical properties are given of powders sintered in resistance furnaces at temperatures ranging from 1700 to 2600'C in an atmosphere of hydrogen. Their lower porosity as compared with that of niobium carbide powders sintered without any activating additions is stressed. There are 5 figures and 3 tables.

TITLE: Technology for preparation of aluminium nitride and the possibilities of its commercial use PERIODICAL: Tsvetnyye metally, no.3, 1962, 56-61 TEXT; The aim of the present work was to establish the optimum conditions for preparing aluminium nitride powder. The initial materials were aluminium powder nA -4 (PA-4) with particle size 0.1 to 0.25 mm, aluminium powder YJAK-4 (PAK-4) with particle size less than 0.042 mm, purified nitrogen containing a trace of oxygen, and ammonia. The apparatus, described in detail previously, enabled material to be nitrided by passing nitrogen over a boat containing the material. Experiments at 700 t0.1200 Oc showed that after up to 240 minutes, nickel and zirconium borlde did not react with the powders of aluminium nitride. The boats were therefore made from these materials. The rate of heating has to be low enough to prevent fusion of the aluminium because, if fusion occurs, the surface area of the reaction is decreased and the aluminium is more likely to react with the material of the Card 1/3 S/136/62/Ooo/oo3/003/008 Technology for preparation E021/E435 boat. The optimum rate of heating without fusion taking place was found to be 6 to 7 OC/min for the 0.1 to 0.25 min powder and 10OC/tnin or lower for the 0.042 min powder. The optimum conditions for nitriding were found by a series of experiments in a current of nitrogen for 15 to 2110 minutes and in a current of -ammonia for 2 hours at 500 to 12000C. ' The results showed that there is relatively full nitriding of the finer powder at 7000C but the coarser powder requires a temperature of 1160 to 1200*C. From the results the following scheme for production of aluminium nitride was put forward.. PAK-4 powder is nitrided at 8000C for 1 hour with a rate of increase of temperature up to 8000C of 10OC/ min. The prepared product is thoroughly mixed and a repeated nitriding is carried out at 12000C for 30 to 60 minutes (with a temperature increase of WC/min). This gives a powder of accurate stoichiometric composition. A commercial powder with about 33% nitrogen content can be prepared by a single nItridIng process at 12000C (with rate of temperature increase 10OC/min).
