Preparation of Metallic Titanium by Film Boiling (open access)

Preparation of Metallic Titanium by Film Boiling

From abstract: The Van Arkel-deBoer method for producing ductile titanium by thermal decomposition of TiI4 vapor and deposition on an electrically heated filament is modified by film boiling TiI4 liquid on a heated filament, resulting in similar titanium deposition on the filament and liberation of iodine to the gaseous phase."
