The effect of pH, dose of adsorbent, contact time, initial concentration, co-ions and temperature on fluoride removal efficiency were studied. The amounts of fluoride ions adsorbed, at 30°C from 4 mg/L of fluoride ion solution, by AT and BA were 0.85 and 1.55 mg/g, respectively. The experimental data fitted well to the Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms. Thermodynamic parameters such as △H0, △S 0 and △G0 indicated that the removal of fluoride ions by AT was exothermic and non-spontaneous while that by BA was endothermic and spontaneous. Fourier transform infrared （FT-IR） analysis and X-ray diffraction （XRD） patterns of the adsorbent before and after adsorption indicated that fluoride ions were chemisorbed by these adsorbents.展开更多

The influence of different formulas on the structures and properties of multiphase material was investigated to determine the optimal formula. Crystalline structure and cell parameters of sintered samples were characterized by XRD. Microstructure of all samples was observed by SEM. The properties of sintered samples were investigated. The results show that corundum phase （a-Al2O3）, mullite solid solution phase （A14.59Sil.4109.7） and aluminium titanate phase （A1ETiOs） were formed in the sintered samples. Different formulas would not change the symmetry of each crystalline phase, but caused slight change in their cell parameters. The optimal formula was determined to be coarse corundum of 36%, fine corundum of 21%, total amount of three kinds of clay of 33%, and TiO2 of 12%, which possessed a comparatively ideal microstructure and optimal properties.展开更多

It was found that K_2O·8TiO_2 whiskers were not very stable.The edge of the whiskers decomposed and a TiO interfacial layer formed during the process of fabricating K_2O·8TiO_2/ ZL109Al composite,and so the interior with increasing temperature and time of heatreatment. Two kinds of interfacial microstructures between the whiskers and the matrix were characterized; one was the TiO layer and the other was a nano scale amorphous transition layer. A few MgAl_2O_4 particles were also observed at the whisker/ matrix interfaces.展开更多
