The Mond process could also be mentioned? And what is the difference between CTR and chemical vapour deposition?--Stone 23:06, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In the usual CTR, at least the ones that I have seen and read about, a catalytic amount of the transporting agent is employed and the system is sealed. But the Mond process is relevant and could be incorporated into the description. Usually the Mond process uses flowing CO (like HCl coming from vents of volcanos I guess). My hope is that someone expert in solid state chem will edit this but we need a placeholder at least.--Smokefoot 23:28, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Van-Arkel-de-Boer-Process[edit]

Arkel, A. E. van, andde Boer, J. H., U. 8. Patent 1,671,213 1928

This process is used to purify Titanium, Hafnium and others by a chemical transport method. Article in the german wiki as Van-Arkel-de-Boer-Verfahren.--Stone 09:41, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Halogen lamp[edit]

This section needs revision. The primary reaction is with tungsten in the gas phase to form an iodide. The iodide decomposes on the tungstant filament back to tungsten metal. Formation of tungsten oxide is clearly undesirable as it would increase the resistance of the filament. I can't find a reliable source for the exact compound(s) formed.

Diagram required[edit]

I think a diagram of the process would really aid the process description. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.186.122.185 (talk) 07:20, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea.
