Grain refining agent for cast magnesium products
Sabin Boily,Houshang Alamdari +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a grain refining agent for cast magnesium products, comprising particles formed of a matrix of a ductile material, in which are uniformly dispersed nucleation particles of at least one element or compound selected from the group consisting of zirconium, silicon carbide, titanium carbide and mixtures of carbon with silicon or titanium, having an average particle size of 0.05 to 5 µm.

New insight on the restructuring and breakage of particles during uniaxial confined compression tests on aggregates of petroleum coke
TL;DR: In this paper, compression tests within a rigid mold were performed on different recipes of carbon paste containing coal tar pitch and fine coke particles, which act as a lubricant enhancing the compaction of the paste.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and Characterization of Bio-pitch from Bio-oil
Ying Lu,Dazhi Li,Xianai Huang,Donald Picard,Roozbeh Mollaabbasi,Thierry Ollevier,Houshang Alamdari +6 more
TL;DR: Coal-tar pitch (CTP) is a fossil carbon material, currently used as a the binder in carbon anode manufacturing process as mentioned in this paper, which contains polycycli...

Effects of Physical Properties of Anode Raw Materials on the Paste Compaction Behavior
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of coke particle characteristics and paste formulation on the flowability and the compression behavior of anode pastes were investigated using an image analysis system where the characteristics of each coke were correlated to its vibrated bulk density (VBD).

Air and CO2 Reactivity of Carbon Anode and Its Constituents: An Attempt to Understand Dusting Phenomenon
TL;DR: In this article, the air and CO2 reactivities of the prebaked carbon anode and also of its constituents were evaluated using thermo-gravimetric analysis and the standard reactivity test of R&D Carbon, ISO Standard 12981-1.
