Effect of Bauxite Aggregate on Properties of Al_2O_3-SiC-C Iron Trough Castables

A1203-SiC-C iron trough castables were prepared using high alumina bauxite clinker GL-90 （ 〉 1 mm ） or homogenized bauxite GL-88 to replace the traditional brown corundum aggregates （ 〉 1 mm ） to reduce the cost of iron trough castables. Effects of the two bauxite aggregates on properties of iron trough eastables were investigated. The results show that the two kinds of bauxite affect flowability, bulk density, strength and slag corrosion resistance of trough castables differently. Compared with homogenized bauxite, high alumina bauxite clinker is more suitable to substitute brown corundum. The castables prepared from the bauxite clinker have similar performances with those prepared from brown corundum, especially used in medium or small blast furnaces with weak thermal impact and lower temperature hot metal. However, in large blast furnaces with severe thermal impact and high temperature hot metal, the performances of the two castables are significantly different. So it is suggested to use the brown corundum based castables in the front gyral zone of the slag skimmer.

Evaluation of the Dietary Reference Intakes for Japanese (2010 Edition): Recommended Protein, Pantothenic acid, Vitamin D, and Iron Intakes for Breast-Fed Infants Aged 6 - 11 Months

Objective: With regard to the 2010 edition of Dietary Reference Intakes for Japanese (DRIs-2010), we investigated whether the DRIs for two age groups, breast-fed infants aged 6-8 and 9-11 months, can be fulfilled for every nutrient in actual dietary practice. Design: We evaluated (1) whether the DRIs for all nutrients can be fulfilled in a formula with energy and protein exceeding their DRIs, (2) whether the DRIs for all nutrients can be fulfilled in a formula prepared in accordance with Japanese government-recommended weaning guidelines, and (3) what kinds of formulas can be prepared if the DRIs for all nutrients are fulfilled without referring to the weaning guidelines. Setting: Simulation of diet menu on the basis of published data in our university and survey of diet menu in a university hospital attached to a national medical school. Subjects: The three types of formulas were planned for ten days. Results: It was impossible to simultaneously fulfil the DRIs for 6 - 8-month-old infants concerning pantothenic acid, vitamin D, and iron and those for 9 - 11-month-old infants concerning these nutrients plus protein. Conclusion: According to the DRIs-2010, the DRI for all nutrients could not be fulfilled in an ingestible formula.

Two New Iron Coordination Polymers Based on Fe-pyta Chains Incorporating Pyridine-2,4,6-tricarboxylate

Reaction of FeCIz＇6H20, pyridine-2,4,6-tricarboxylic acid（H3pyta） and NaOH in the hydrothermal system at 185 ℃ resulted in the formation of 1D coordination polymer[Fe（Hpyta）（H2O）2]（1） based on Fe-Hpyta chains. When the abpt[abpt=-4-amino-3,5-bis（4-pyridyl）-l,2,4-triazole] ligand was employed in the reaction system, a 3D supramolecular porous network （H2bpt）[Fe（pyta）（H2O）2]·4H2O（2） was obtained. The framework was constructed with negative （Fe-pyta） chains and the positive H3bpt^＋ in situ, formed from the abpt reagent, to form 1D channels filled with guest water molecules via hydrogen-bonds.

Application Research of Dense Sintered Alumina in Iron Runner Castables

Three different kinds of corundum aggregates-tabular sintered alumina, dense sintered alumina, and fused dense corundum-were introduced into the silica fume .free or silica fume containing Al2O3 -SiC - C iron runner castables to investigate their influences on the flow ability, linear change on heating, bulk density, apparent porosity, cold strength, hot modulus of rupture, therm, al shock resistance, slag resistance, oxidation resistance as well as wear resistance of Al2O3 - SiC - C iron runner castables. The results show that （ 1 ） compared with the specimens with fused dense corundum, the specimens with dense sintered alumina have equivalent installation property, slag resistance and oxidation resistance, equivalent or even higher cold modulus of rupture, cold crushing strength and hot modulus of rupture, exhibiting better thermal shock resistance and cold wear resistance ; （2） adopting bimodal alumina micropowder LISAL22RABL as well as water reducers ZX2 and ZD2 can well reduce the water requirement of silica fume free castables, solving the problem of deteriorated flow ability resulted from the lack of silica fume; since the lack of silica fume avoids the formation of low melting point liquid, the hot modulus of rupture and the thermal shock resistance of the silica fume free castables are both better than those of the silica fume containing castables ; （3） the density of the castable specimens with dense sintered alumina is 4% -6% lower than that of the castable specimens with Jhsed dense corundum so the refractories consumption of one iron runner reduces by 5% by using the tastable with dense sintered alumina, which obviously reduces the cost of refractories.

Peering into Past: What Happened to the Moon 3.6 Billion Years Ago?

Invaluable data can at times be overlooked or not fully exploited when first collected. Striking conclusions can often be drawn on the basis of a specific analysis many years later. The Apollo 11 - 17 missions (1961-1972) provided detailed information on lunar basalts which make it possible to measure the iron grains in basalts from microphotographs of thin sections. Analysis of the average size of these grains (D) differed as a function of the age of these basalts dated between 3.9 and 3.4 billion years ago, revealed that D increased 1.5 fold, therefore the gravity acceleration g decreased 1.5 fold. The intriguing conclusion can only be that the size of the Moon increased, its mass decreased, or both these factors have changed.

Modeling assessment of recovering iron from red mud by direct reduction： magnetic separation based on response surface methodology

Red mud, the waste generated during alumina production, contains iron and other valuable metals. To recover the iron efficiently from red mud, a three-factor five-level central composite design in response surface methodology was used to study the effects of process parameters, such as FC/O （the molar ratio of fixed carbon in coal to reducible oxygen of iron oxide in red mud）, reduction temperature, reduction time, and their interaction on the iron recovery rate and total iron content in magnetic product obtained from the process of direct reduction-magnetic separation. The relevant assessment model was established. The model could predict the changing rules of iron recovery rate and total iron content in the magnetic product affected by the process parameters. The results show that the iron recovery rate is significantly influenced by three factors and reduction temperature plays the most important role. The iron recovery rate and total iron content in magnetic product could be up to 98.37 and 82.52%, respectively, under the numerically optimal process parameters condition of reduction temperature of 1400 ℃, FC/O of 0.80 and reduction time of 100 min obtained by the assessment model. The predicted values are in good agreement with the experimental values.

Boron rings containing planar octacoordinate iron and cobalt

The boron rings containing planar octacoordinate transition metals, D8h FeB82-, CoB8- and CoB83+, C2v FeB8, D2h CoB8+ and CoB8, are optimized with all real vibrational frequencies at the B3LYP/6-311+G* level of the theory. The D8h FeB82- and CoB8- isomers are global minima, while D8h CoB83+ is only local minimum. The electronic structure character of these systems is revealed by natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis, showing that the boron rings containing planar octacoordinate transition metals have stability and aromaticity with six π electrons. The aromaticity is confirmed by nucleus independent chemical shifts (NICS) calculations.

Thermodynamic evaluation of reaction abilities of structural units in Fe-C binary melts based on atom-molecule coexistence theory

The reaction abilities of structural units in Fe-C binary melts over a temperature range above the liquidus lines have been evaluated by a thermodynamic model for calculating the mass action concentrations Ni of structural units in Fe-C binary melts based on the atom-molecule coexistence theory （AMCT）, i.e., the AMCT-N/model, through comparing with the predicted activities aR.i of both C and Fe by 14 collected models from the literature at four temperatures of 1833, 1873, 1923, and 1973 K. Furthermore, the Raoultian activity coefficient γC0 of in infinitely dilute Fe-C binary melts and the standard molar Gibbs free energy change △solG%m,Cdis（1）→[C]W[C]=1.0 of dissolved liquid C for forming w[C] as 1.0 in Fe-C binary melts referred to 1 mass% of C as reference state have also been determined to be valid. The determined activity coefficient In γC of C and activity coefficient In TEe of Fe including temperature effect for Fe-C binary melts can be described by a quadratic polynomial function and a cubic polynomial function, respectively.
