An Isothermal Study Of An S.A.E. 6150 Steel, Tom Liss, C. Arentzen

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose of this thesis is to set forth the method followed, the laboratory procedure practiced, the results obtained, the conclu­sions drawn, and the recommendations proposed as a consequence of a metallographic study of the isothermal transformation of an S.A.E. 6150 steel.

The Casting Of Anodes For The Series System Of Electrolytic Copper Refining, Robert R. Kupfer

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The electrolytic refining process, while usually considered an auxiliary process used in conjunction with pyrometallurgical extraction, deserves a special niche in the complex metallurgy of copper. The development of electrolytic copper refining, for example, is largely responsible for the prominence of the electrical industry. Conversely, it could be stated that the electrical industry played an important part in the development of the copper industry.

Chromizing Of Steels, Edward Buchanan

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

In recent years, considerable thought and study have been given to the use of chromized articles in place of chromium stainless steel articles. The present extensive application of chromizing, indeed, helps greatly to conserve this valuable metal.

An Investigation Of A Particular Weldment Failure, Byron Clow

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Two sets of weld-test coupons, supposedly made under identical conditions, were submitted to this institution last year for approval and certification under the A.S.M.E. Welder's Qualification Code. The first set of coupons was unsatisfactory. The second set, made by the same operators one month later, was satisfactory.

The Leaching Of Electrodeposition Of Iron, Emmett G. Simmons

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Electrolytic iron as deposited is brittle and therefore must be annealed. After annealing, the material is ductile and closely resembles copper in its behavior under work. It is claimed to be more resistant to corrosion than dead soft iron. It also has the advantage of corroding uniformly ( or­dinary soft iron develops pin holes which shorten its life considerably).

The extreme purity of electrolytic iron namely makes it very suitable as a base metal for alloys. Its ductility opens up a field for use in the manufacture of cold rolled strip, seamless tubes, and wire.
