Abstract

The joint aluminothermic reduction of zirconium and niobium oxides is studied by a thermodynamic simulation of metallothermic reactions, differential thermal analysis, and X-ray diffraction analysis. The research can serve as a scientific basis for the development of promising metal-thermal technologies for the production of rare-metal alloys. Our results can be used to develop advanced metallothermic technologies for making rare-metal alloys.
