Previous work on the topochemical reduction of chromous and ferrous chlorides has been extended to include investigations carried out at elevated pressures. The kinetics are explained on the basis of heat and mass transfer processes involving vaporization of the metal chloride. Some of the problems encountered in the industrial application of these reactions are discussed.
