PROCESS FOR THE PURIFICATION OF TITANIUM TETRACHLORIDE

摘要

Process for the purification of titanium tetrachloride, in which the said titanium tetrachloride is brought into contact with a purifying agent consisting of an inert support in granular form on which metallic sodium or other reducing metal has been deposited in sub-divided form, the said contact taking place either on crude liquid titanium tetrachloride with subsequent distillation to recover the purified titanium tetrachloride or on crude vaporised titanium tetrachloride with subsequent condensation to recover the purified titanium tetrachloride.
