Abstract

The present study concerns to the thermoanalytical investigation on the kinetics of the reduction process of FeCr2O4 with aluminium powder under non-isothermal conditions. In the present investigation, simultaneous thermogravimetry (TG) - differencial thermal annlysis(DTA) technique was used. SEM and XRD were also used in order to identify the phases in the samples quenched at several chosen conditions. On the DTA curve, three peaks were observed corresponding to the endothermic peak for melting of aluminum, the exothermic heat change for oxidation of excess aluminum, and heat change for reoxidation of ferrochrome, respectively. The analysis of the product indicated the presence of Al2O3, Cr2O 3, Fe-Cr and unreacted Al. After that, Fe-Cr and unreacted Al were oxidized gradually.
