An improved apparatus for preparation of high-melting-point high-toughness metals comprising a reaction chamber in which a halide of said metal is reacted with an active metal and the remaining active metal and the produced active metal halide are vaporized and a condensation chamber in which vapors of the remaining active metal and the active metal halide are condensed is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a reaction chamber and a condensation chamber as described above both of which are provided with a neck having a passage-closing means of the seal pot structure, and the two chambers are placed in parallel in the upright position and are connected with a horizontal connecting duct.

Apparatus for preparing high-melting-point high-toughness metals

In an apparatus for preparation of high-melting-point high-toughness metals by reduction of chlorides thereof with an active metal which comprises a heatable and tightly closable reaction chamber, an evacuable and coolable condensation chamber for separating the unreacted active metal and the formed chloride of the active metal from the formed object metal and an intermediate connecting section for communicating and cutting off the two chambers, the improved apparatus which is characterized in that it comprises a seal pot closing means having a funnel and a pot which is closed by introducing a melt of a fusible and vaporizable material and solidifying it therein, is disclosed.
