Evaluation Of Commercial Titanium Alloys, Robert Loucks
Evaluation Of Commercial Titanium Alloys, Robert Loucks
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Uses of titanium and its alloys range from aircraft structures to corrosion-resistance applications. The properties of the metal, including physical metallurgy, naturally dictate the folds of application. The interstitial elements, plus aluminum and tin, preferentially stabilize the alpha phase of titanium.
Synthetic Manganese Dioxide Production, Russell Marion Dugdale
Synthetic Manganese Dioxide Production, Russell Marion Dugdale
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Before World War I the United States procured all of its battery grade manganese dioxide from the Caucasus. Even at this time some experimentation was under way to produce this depolarizing substance synthetically and the experiments were successful to a large extent so that when the ore from the Caucasus was cut off, the necessary material was produced synthetically. The shortage was relieved when a deposit of manganese dioxide was discovered in Montana, which was superior to the ore from the Caucasus.
