The original yams were marketed as silk substitutes for use in apparel, hosiery, lace, home furnishings, ribbons, braids, and in a whole range of fabrics using blends with cotton or wool yams. As the end uses expanded beyond silk replacement, the harsh metallic luster of the yam proved disadvantageous and dull "matt" fibers had to be developed. Oil dulling was invented (11) in 1926, and an improved method using titanium dioxide was developed (12) in 1929. 

Sheet can be produced by melt extmsion, but in this case a three-roll stack of quenching roUs is generally used (Fig. 2). More than three roUs may be used where necessary. The roUs may be mounted vertically or horizontally. The web is extmded through a slot die in a thickness close to the desired final thickness. The die is in very close proximity to the first chill roU or chill-roll nip. The web may be cast horizontally directly onto the upper chill roU of the stack as shown (Fig. 2), or it may be extmded into the first nip directly. The roUs quench the sheet and provide the surface polish desired. In some applications, matte or embossed roUs maybe used to impart special surface characteristics for certain functions. Where the utmost in optical (glazing) quality is desired the trend has been to mount the roU stack horizontally. The hot melt is then extmded vertically down into the first nip. This avoids problems associated with sag of a horizontal hot melt no matter how short the distance between die and quench. 

Nickel and cobalt are recovered by processes that employ both pressure leaching and precipitation steps. The raw materials for these processes can be sulfide concentrates, matte, arsenide concentrates, and precipitated sulfides. Typically, acidic conditions are used for leaching however, ammonia is also effective in leach solutions because of the tendency for soluble cobalt and nickel ammines to form under the leach conditions. 

Copper is frequently a main impurity ia blast-furnace charges, and its limited solubiUty ia molten lead as copper sulfide requires that the excess be removed by chemical reaction with components of the charge. For this reason enough sulfur is left ia the siater to form a copper sulfide matte layer having a specific gravity of 5.2. 

If antimony and arsenic are present ia the feed, copper and iron react to form the respective antimonides and arsenides known as speiss (specific gravity 6.0). If it is preferred to remove copper ia a speiss layer, the sulfur ia the siater must be reduced and the addition of scrap iron may be necessary to encourage speiss formation. Matte and speiss are usually sent to a copper smelter for recovery of the metals. 

The dross from this operation contains considerable quantities of copper and lead as well as other valuable metals. Separation and recovery is economically imperative. The dross is treated to produce readily separated stratified layers of slag, speiss, matte, and lead. Two processes are primarily used. 

The success of the process results from the fact that nowhere inside the furnace is heat extracted from the copper-saturated blast furnace buUion through a soUd surface. The problem of accretion formation (metal buUd-up), which has plagued many other attempts to estabUsh a copper dtossing operation of this type, does not arise. In the cooling launder, lead-rich matte and slag accumulate on the water-cooled plates, but these ate designed so that when they ate lifted from the buUion stream, the dross cracks off and is swept into the furnace via the cooled lead pot. 

Soda. Process. Use of a soda smelting process for treating copper drosses in the reverberatory furnace increases the copper to lead ratios in the matte and speiss, and aUows lower operating temperatures. A flow sheet describing this process is shown in Figure 11. 

Surface Finish. As well as influencing the rate of metal removal, electrolytes also affect the quality of surface finish obtained in ECM. Depending on the metal being machined, some electrolytes leave an etched finish. This finish results from the nonspecular reflection of light from crystal faces electrochemicaHy dissolved at different rates. Sodium chloride electrolyte tends to produce a kind of etched, matte finish when used for steels and nickel aHoys. A typical surface roughness average, Ra is about 1 ]lni.

The essential operations of an extractive metallurgy flow sheet are the decomposition of a metallic compound to yield the metal followed by the physical separation of the reduced metal from the residue. This is usually achieved by a simple reduction or by controlled oxidation of the nonmetal and simultaneous reduction of the metal. This may be accompHshed by the matte smelting and converting processes. 

The reacting particles melt rapidly, and the droplets fall to the slag layer. The sulfide drops settle through it to form the matte phase. Any oxidi2ed copper is reduced to the matte by the following reaction ... 

In the anodizing stage electrolytic reactions produce a uniform aluminum oxide layer across the aluminum surface. This anodic film is transparent and porous. The underlying matte or bright surface can be seen. After anodizing, the aluminum part can be colored or sealed.
