    Leaching of ilmenite to produce titanium based materials: a review
    (Springer International Publishing, 2021-12) Thambiliyagodage, C. J; Wijesekera, R; Bakker, M. G
    Naturally available ilmenite mineral is being used as a starting material to produce titanium based products that have wide applications. Transformation of ilmenite to diferent titanium based materials by strong and weak acid, and base digestion, is discussed. Efects of temperature, concentration of acid/base, reaction time on dissolution of ilmenite are extensively reviewed. Characterization of the starting materials, intermediates and the products by x-ray difraction, thermogravimetry, brunauer–emmett–teller surface area analysis, and scanning electron microscopy are presented. Further, advantages and disadvantages associated with the digestion methods are discussed.
