PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF PRE-ALLOYED POWDERS FOR DIAMOND TOOLS, AND THE POWDERS SO OBTAINED
The invention concerns pre-alloyed powders useful for the manufacture of metal-bonded diamond tools. A process for the synthesis of such powders is presented, characterized in that at least a major part of the phosphor is introduced by adding an aqueous solution of a phosphorus salt to one or more of the metal-bearing compounds. The powder can have a low cobalt content, or even be cobalt-free, yet remain suitable for the production of diamond-loaded segments having harness and bending characteristics approaching or exceeding that of cobalt.

Iridium alloy catalyst having reversible catalytic activity and preparation method thereof
Proposed is an iridium alloy catalyst having reversible catalytic activity for an oxygen evolution reaction (OER), a hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), and a hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) by including an iridium alloy including iridium (Ir) and nickel (Ni). The iridium alloy catalyst according to the present disclosure is rapidly converted to an iridium alloy catalyst in an oxide form and an iridium alloy catalyst in a metallic form according to applied voltage by controlling its crystallinity. Thus, even in case an oxide layer is formed after the OER, the oxidation layer disappears during the HER and HOR and the properties of an iridium metal catalyst remain, thereby maintaining HER/HOR performance.
Multi-Stage Process for Producing a Material of a Battery Cell
A system and method thereof are provided for multi-stage processing of one or more precursor compounds into a battery material. The system includes a mist generator, a drying chamber, one or more gas-solid separators, and one or more in-line reaction modules comprised of one or more gas-solid feeders, one or more gas-solid separators, and one or more reactors. Various gas-solid mixtures are formed within the internal plenums of the drying chamber, the gas-solid feeders, and the reactors. In addition, heated air or gas is served as the energy source within the processing system and as the gas source for forming the gas-solid mixtures to facilitate reaction rate and uniformity of the reactions therein. Precursor compounds are continuously delivered into the processing system and processed in-line through the internal plenums of the drying chamber and the reaction modules into final reaction particles useful as a battery material.

METHOD FOR REFINING LARGE-PARTICLE-SIZE PURE COPPER OR COPPER ALLOY PARTICLES BY HIGH-ENERGY BALL MILLING
The present invention discloses a method for refining large-particle-size pure copper or copper alloy particles by high-energy ball milling, the method comprising the following steps: (1) using large-particle-size pure copper or copper alloy coarse particles as a raw material and cyclohexane or water as a process control agent, and crushing and refining the particles by high-energy ball milling to obtain small-particle-size copper or copper alloy powder; and (2) decreasing an oxygen content in the powder obtained in step (1) in a reducing atmosphere to obtain pure copper or copper alloy powder. In the present invention, by improving the overall process flow of the preparation method and the parameter conditions of each process step, the method greatly decreases energy consumption compared with existing copper powder preparation techniques. In addition, the method features a simple process and low production costs.
