Abstract. This paper describes a novel process for preparation of synthetic rutile using an intermediate, sulfated ilmenite from the sulfate TiO 2 process as the feedstock. The synthetic rutile can be obtained by selective thermal decomposition of the sulfated ilmenite, followed by targeted leaching for removal of various impurities.
This requires removal of impurities (e.g. Fe, Mg, Mn) which, for a primary ilmenite is straightforward process. Processing of weathered ilmenite however, is complex, especially when chrome-bearing impurities are present since minor chromium downgrades the SR market value as it imparts color to the final TiO 2 pigment, Chrome-bearing spinels are ...
