Chemical Process Industry -TiCL4
Chemical Process Industry - TiCL 4 THE PROBLEM: Titanium tetrachloride (TiCL 4 ), often referred to as "TICKLE" (See Figure 1), is a dense, colorless organic compound with many uses in the chemical and metal industries. It is produced by using a reduction process of titanium oxide pores followed by distillation to improve purity (See Figure 2). The semiconductor industry uses a pure form of the compound as a chemical vapor deposition age
