Production of high purity thorium oxide from complex ores leach liquor

This paper investigates a method for separation and purification of thorium from leach liquors containing rare-earth elements (REE). Iron, which causes problems in the stage of thorium extracting, was first removed by using Adogen 464 solvent. Thorium was extracted with 30% D2EHPA-in kerosene with 1/3 organic/aqueous ratio and stoichiometry of the thorium-D2EHPA complex was calculated as 1:2.6 from slope analysis. After the extraction, LREE and HREE were scrubbed from the extracted organic with 0.25 M H2 SO4 and 6 M HCl, respectively. Thorium oxalate was precipitated by oxalic acid and calcined at 1,050 °C. It was, after calcination, determined that purity of thorium oxide is 99.23%, based on the ICP-OES analysis.

ROKETSAN announced in 2019 that it is working on Thorium Oxide-based ceramics with a melting temperature of 3000 degrees.


ROKETSAN announced in January 2021 that it had developed a combustion chamber for the screamjet engine. The article implied that this technology was developed for hypersonic cruise missiles. Therefore, one of the critical raw materials that Turkey can use in the related project on the way to develop hypersonic cruise missiles has become available from domestic sources.

Desktop Metal Qualifies 420 Stainless Steel for High-Volume Additive Manufacturing With the Production System Platform​


Desktop Metal Single Pass Jetting Technology Enables Mass Production of High-Strength, End-Use Parts in 420 Stainless Steel for Applications Across Medical, Defense, Aerospace, and Consumer Products


Desktop Metal (NYSE: DM) today announced the qualification of Grade 420 stainless steel (420 SS) for use on the Production SystemTM platform, which leverages patent pending Single Pass JettingTM (SPJ) technology designed to achieve the fastest build speeds in the metal additive manufacturing industry. Manufacturers can now leverage SPJ technology for the mass production of high-strength, end-use parts in 420 SS for demanding applications in industries such as medical, aerospace, defense, and consumer products.

A martensitic heat-treatable stainless steel, 420 SS is characterized by its high strength and hardness as well as its corrosion resistance to the atmosphere, foods, fresh water, and mild acids when in a fully hardened condition. 420 SS is a common material used extensively across a variety of applications such as surgical and dental instruments, ball bearings, gear shafts, pump and valve components, fasteners, gauges, hand tools, and high-end cutlery.

“Engineers continue to seek out metal additive manufacturing as a leading option to drive innovation in design and manufacturing,” said Jonah Myerberg, CTO and co-founder of Desktop Metal. “We believe our qualification of 420 SS and other high-strength alloys will accelerate the deployment of our AM 2.0 solutions among customers looking to successfully mass produce critical parts at scale.”

420 Stainless Steel - Key Applications

Desktop Metal’s materials science team has qualified and fully characterized 420 SS printed on Production System technology that meets MPIF 35 standards for structural powder metallurgy parts set by the Metal Powder Industries Federation. Parts printed in 420 SS on the Production System platform eliminate the use of tooling and minimize material waste, as well as represent a significant decrease in production time and part cost compared to conventional manufacturing methods.

Examples of key applications include:

  • Medical/Surgical - Locking Articulation Bar
Robotic surgical systems used in a variety of medical procedures provide surgeons a better range of motion, enhanced visibility, and a level of precision unachievable with manual surgeries. These systems feature highly precise motion systems with many small intricate parts. The Production System offers high-resolution binder jet printing, making it an ideal solution for achieving the fine features required of robotic surgical instruments. For components like locking articulation bars, 420 SS is a desired material for its high hardness and excellent corrosion resistance. Since no tooling is required to produce these parts with binder jetting on the Production System, volume production can begin as soon as the design is complete, saving valuable time and money on large non-recurring costs of tooling design and fabrication.

  • Aerospace - Valve Nozzle Adapter
Valve nozzle adapters connect nozzles with fluid systems in aerospace applications, where multiple versions of these adapters are often required to accommodate various nozzle geometries and sizes. Engineers prefer 420 SS for this type of adapter because of its excellent corrosion resistance and high hardness. With capacity for thousands of adapters in a single build, the Production System can support the manufacturing of these components in 420 SS in volumes competitive with conventional manufacturing methods. In addition, with no tooling required, numerous adapter geometries can be printed within a single build, saving lead time and costs associated with changing over tooling in conventional manufacturing processes.

  • High-Volume Manufacturing - Twin Screw Extruder Mixing Elements
Twin screw extruder mixing elements are used for mixing, compounding and processing viscous materials. These parts feature complex lobes around the exterior of the spline that must be optimized for the material being extruded, necessitating a unique mixing element for each different material. With conventional manufacturing, each of these elements can be complex to produce, often requiring advanced machining techniques, multiple machining setups, and custom fixturing. Binder jetting with the Production System simplifies the manufacturing process, enabling large volumes of several, unique mixing elements to be printed in each build, reducing the cost and lead time of production compared to machining. 420 SS is an essential material in these applications for its high hardness and corrosion resistance, ensuring the elements have a long lifetime and the hardness required for extruding a wide variety of materials.

The World’s Fastest Way to 3D Print Metal Parts At-Scale

Created by the inventors of binder jetting and single-pass inkjet technology, the Production System is an industrial manufacturing platform powered by Desktop Metal’s Single Pass JettingTM technology. It is designed to achieve speeds up to 100 times those of legacy powder bed fusion additive manufacturing technologies and enable production quantities of up to millions of parts per year at costs competitive with conventional mass production techniques. The P-50 printer is paving the way for the mass production of end-use parts -- unlocking throughput, repeatability, and competitive part costs. For more information on the P-1, the P-50, and Production System technology, visit www.desktopmetal.com/products/production.

In addition to 420 SS, the Production System materials portfolio today includes nickel alloy IN625, 17-4PH stainless steel, 316L stainless steel, and 4140 low-alloy steel, each of which have been qualified by Desktop Metal. The open-system platform also supports several customer-qualified materials, including silver and gold. The company plans to launch additional qualified metals to its portfolio, including tool steels, stainless steels, superalloys, copper, and more.

Application of Twin Screw Extrusion for Continuous Processing of Energetic Materials​

Continuous processing of energetic materials using a twin screw extruder is gaining importance as it is a safe and cost-effective alternative to conventional batch processing. The continuous process based on a twin screw extruder combines the capabilities of intensive mixing and high pressure extrusion. It is used for processing a variety of energetic materials, such as gun and rocket propellants, plastic bonded explosives, pyrotechnics, thermo-baric explosives, etc. The twin screw extruder process demands various safety features for the processing of energetic materials. Therefore, exhaustive characterisation of the energetic materials in terms of safety and rheology, coupled with characterisation of the mechanical components of the extruder, are essential for designing a safe continuous process. In this article, a technological overview of continuous processing for energetic materials is presented, along with its various features, process design methodology and safety issues.

Semiconductor nanocrystals went into mass production. Now they have to be specially designed for the MMU project.
MMU is just one of the project / sectors that will benefit from this work, TV set sector can benefit even more if they can get all aspects of the screen tech right and make it competitive.

Turkish scientists have developed spray foam that reduces the appearance on radars and filaments for 3D printers.


Scientists working at Yalova University have developed a spray foam that will provide invisibility against enemy radars in the defense industry and a filament that will enable the production of materials with the desired properties from 3D printers.

Yalova University Engineering Faculty Polymer Materials Engineering Department has produced materials that are not caught under the radar with the foam used in thermal insulation and the filament (raw material used to manufacture parts in 3D printers) of their own production in two projects, one of which is supported by TÜBİTAK.

Assoc. Dr. Rector Prof. Dr. Alper Kaşgöz and his team followed and received information. Dr. Suat Cebeci told Anadolu Agency (AA) that although their university is young, it has a very good staff.

Cebeci stated that many studies were carried out in the Polymer Materials Engineering Department and that the work of Kaşgöz and his team was highly appreciated, especially in the field of defense industry.

prof. Dr. Suat Cebeci said, "It is a spray system that can absorb radar signals and make mobile materials invisible to radars, in other words, blinding radars. Our friends have done a good job on this. We are in the second year of this TÜBİTAK-supported project. Here, the filament and spray system. "Two projects are being carried out. We will support our friends until the end. Especially as our country has entered a process of move in the field of defense industry, we must definitely contribute here." he said.

Emphasizing that the studies against radars are not new, but the work done in their universities has been made more useful and practical, Cebeci said:

"We have to develop the mechanisms that we have developed and that we know all the systematics of and that we can produce quickly. Filament is a necessity arising from the need to produce different materials according to the areas of use. Once you can do this, you can produce materials with the geometry and properties you want. Protecting the currently used defense, attack, ammunition or other important equipment. "The protection of the weapons, which we have developed with our own technology and engineering skills, especially in our own country, needs to be with materials unique to us. That's why these studies are very important."

- SPRAY PROVIDES A SHIELD OF PROTECTION TO MILITARY PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT


Explaining that they are working on the development of targeted polymer composites in the laboratory, Assoc. Dr. Kaşgöz said that they have been working on the development of composites that will absorb radar signals and reduce radar visibility in recent years.

Stating that they carried out two projects related to composites that will absorb radar signals at the university, Kaşgöz explained the new feature they brought to the spray polyurethane used for insulation, which is their first project that they received support from TÜBİTAK.

Alper Kaşgöz stated that spray polyurethane is known to be very light, and that they are trying to make these spray polyurethanes absorb radar signals with their work and continued as follows:

"In this way, we are trying to create a shield that can be applied more lightly and easily and can also provide thermal insulation, for example, when it is applied to an object in the open area or around the personnel as a cabin, it provides invisibility on x-band radars and protects the personnel or equipment inside from environmental conditions. Polyurethane "We add various functional fillers to our formulations and try to make them radar-deflecting. Of course, we are also doing development studies by taking into account other important parameters such as foam morphology, cell sizes and density."

Reminding that they are in the first year of the TÜBİTAK-supported project, Kaşgöz said, "Our goal at the end of the project is to achieve 99 percent and above damping performance of radar systems in the 8-12 gigaherz range, called x-band radars. We are in the small-scale production and testing phase in our work so far. Our target is one year. To develop a radar-damping polymer foam composite that can absorb more than 99 percent in the interior, can also be sprayed onto any object as a spray, and can swell within 3 minutes and be ready for use." he said.

- SPRAY-Squeezed MATERIALS CAN BLOCK MOBILE RADARS AND THERMAL CAMERAS
Explaining that the spray foam can cover a material in an open area or a place in an area in a short time, which will make it difficult to detect by radar, Kaşgöz said:

"Radars are equipment that indicates the location of both our own equipment and enemy elements. Ensuring invisibility against radar systems is an area that has been studied a lot lately. Our goal in this project is to provide invisibility against mobile radar systems with smaller antenna sizes, which we call x-band radars. We aim to protect a generator or military equipment in the open field from enemy radar systems by applying this spray to an invisibility shield. We can say that the main purpose here is to protect equipment that you do not show. Thus, you will be protected from the attack of enemy elements. It is possible to use it as a cabin rather than a soldier's outfit. In fact, these are also used in thermal insulation.When our spray is used as a cabin, it will protect the soldier or equipment from both the radar system and cold winter conditions. It even makes it a little more difficult to detect from thermal cameras to a certain extent. there will be work."

- THEY CAN PRODUCE PARTS WITH THE DESIRED SHAPE AND FEATURE WITH THE FILAMENT DEVELOPED FOR 3D PRINTER
Explaining that they focused on the production of parts that can also be used in daily life in their second project against radar systems, Alper Kaşgöz stated that for this purpose, he carried out with his own company (Polyshield Engineering Consulting and R&D) operating in Istanbul University Technocity.

Pointing out the importance of geometry in covering an object very well in order to protect it from radar, Kaşgöz stated that they have developed a special filament for the 3D printer, which is frequently used for this purpose.

Kaşgöz said, "First, we produced composites with radar damping, which we call granules, in the laboratory environment. Then, again in our own laboratory and with the support of our company, we have developed filaments for 3D printers that can absorb radar signals that can dampen over 90 percent and close to 99 percent. "We also took prints from various 3D printers related to it. We also did tests with those prints. Currently, the print we get from the 3D printer, which is connected to the device and in the form of pyramids, can absorb close to 99 percent in the test." said.

26442867.jpg


Noting that they have also developed a filament capable of damping over 99 percent in the entire band range, Assoc. Dr. Alper Kaşgöz continued his words as follows:

"We are continuing our efforts to be able to produce a few kilograms per day in the coming weeks. There are two main areas of this filament. The first is that you can directly 3D print and coat an object with a complex geometry that is desired to be hidden from the radar. You can produce parts in the geometry you want in a few hours without the need for production. It is possible to get closer to being completely hidden from the radar by increasing this ratio with studies in different geometries."

Kaşgöz stated that the second main area will be a practical method for the experimental testing and testing of the designs determined by various simulations by scientists working for invisibility on radar and trying to optimize the surface geometry.

Do you know if GAN transistors also started mass production? It would have done years ago...

"yerli tasarım ve üretim GaN tabanlı Gönderme/Alma (T/R) modülü yer almaktadır"

This refers to the module manufactured using Turkish made GAN transistors or with imported? Not Clear to me.
I hope we succeeded it.
LoL, You can't import GaN modules. The moment you state that the end use will be for military purposes no one will sell you such advanced subsystems. Heck, Türkiye can't even buy advanced milling machines if it is for military production.

BTW Don't you know Turkish? Yerli tasarım ve üretim= national design and production.
