Protective Refractory Coatings On Titanium Metal, Eugene F. Gibbs
Protective Refractory Coatings On Titanium Metal, Eugene F. Gibbs
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The problem undertaken in this thesis concerns the development of a newer phase of metallurgy, namely the adaption of the strong, lightweight metal titanium to high-temperature uses. The primary objective of the investigation is to determine whether the application of refractory coatings to titanium will protect the metal from chemical reactions and corrosion at high temperatures.
An Investigation Of The Anodic Oxidation Of Aluminum In A Sulfuric Acid Electrolyte, William D. Michaely
An Investigation Of The Anodic Oxidation Of Aluminum In A Sulfuric Acid Electrolyte, William D. Michaely
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
When aluminum is allowed to stand in air or is heated in air, a thin oxide film is produced on the metal. If aluminum is made the anode in a suitable electrolyte and a current applied, a coating is obtained which is similar to that produced in air, but may be effected much quicker. This film is thicker, harder, more resistant to corrosion and abrasion, and more adhesive than the natural oxide. The film is porous and makes an excellent adsorptive for dyes and pigments.
Electro-Deposition Of Iron From A Chloride Bath, Charles W. Noon
Electro-Deposition Of Iron From A Chloride Bath, Charles W. Noon
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Iron was electro-deposited from a ferrous chloride bath. Studies were made of deposits formed when current density was varied, and finally when both current density and temperature were changed. An attempt was made to lay the ground work for a long range study of the chloride bath, and to determine the most simple conditions possible for obtaining a smooth, even, and thick deposit.
Economic Talc Deposits Of Montana And Related Firing Problems, Charles J. Lyden
Economic Talc Deposits Of Montana And Related Firing Problems, Charles J. Lyden
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
This thesis has to do with a study of the production of talc in Montana, describing the local geology of each deposit, and a description of the laboratory tests that were made on various grades of Montana talc in an attempt to determine why some grades of talc can be burned in solid forms while others must be ground, mixed with a binder and molded.
