The effects of leaching temperature and time on the extraction efficiencies of Ni2+ and Co2+ were investigated in detail under microwave conditions. It is shown that the extraction efficiencies of Ni2+ and Co2+ from the ore pre-roasted at 300℃ for 5 h were 89.19% and 61.89% when the leaching temperature and time were about 70℃ and 60 min, respectively. For the separation process of Ni and Co, the separation of main chemical components was performed by adjusting the pH values of sulfuric leaching solutions using a NaOH solution based on the different pH values of precipitation for metal hydroxides. The final separation efficiencies of Ni and Co were 77.29% and 65.87%, respectively. Furthermore, the separation efficiencies of Fe of 95.36% and Mg of 92.2% were also achieved at the same time.展开更多

The method significantly accelerated the coating formation on magnesium. Moreover, the morphology, phase/chemical composition, the coating formation mechanism as well as degradation behavior in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution were in- vestigated. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images showed that the coating had three layers and X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed that the coating mainly contained Ca3(PO4)2 and (Ca,Mg)3(PO4)2. Elec- trochemical test showed that the corrosion current density (Icorr) of the coated Mg was decreased by about one order of magnitude as compared to that of pure magnesium. The immersion test indicated that the coating could obviously reduce the degradation rate.展开更多
