Variation Of Induction And Hysteresis Curves For The Heusler Alloy, Cu2mna1, Ford W. Knight May 1952

Variation Of Induction And Hysteresis Curves For The Heusler Alloy, Cu2mna1, Ford W. Knight

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose of this investigation is to determine the fundamental magnetic characteristics of induction and hysteresis, for the alloy Cu2MnAl. This is a ternary, ferromagnetic Heusler alloy. The problem is not only to determine these characteristics for the alloy as-cast but to heat treat it and observe the manner in which different heat treat­ments affect these two fundamental magnetic characteristics.


The Effect Of Ferric Iron Upon The Current Efficiency And The Deposition Of Copper In The Electrowinning Of Copper From Copper Sulphate Solutions, James L. Owings May 1952

The Effect Of Ferric Iron Upon The Current Efficiency And The Deposition Of Copper In The Electrowinning Of Copper From Copper Sulphate Solutions, James L. Owings

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

In the hydrometallurgy of copper, probably the most widely used method for the precipitation of copper is by electrolysis using insoluble anodes. The process is similar in many respects to the electrolytic refining of copper; one of the main differences is the use of insoluble anodes in electrowinning as compared to the use of impure copper anodes in electrorefining. Impurities, however, are common to both processes. The nature of these impurities differ and the problem of purifying the electrolyte is also different.


The Effect Of Iron Upon The Electrowinning Of Copper With An Amalgam Electrode, John A. Alexander May 1952

The Effect Of Iron Upon The Electrowinning Of Copper With An Amalgam Electrode, John A. Alexander

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Current commercial use of the mercury cathode cell is limited to two types of electrolytic sodium cells-­the Castner cell and the Sorenson cell. Mercury as a cathode medium has also found application in polarographic analysis, a method of a simultaneous quantitative and qualitative analysis of several metal components of solution.


An Investigation Of The Hardening Properties Of Some Alpha Copper Indium Alloys, Charles W. Mcpherson May 1952

An Investigation Of The Hardening Properties Of Some Alpha Copper Indium Alloys, Charles W. Mcpherson

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Precipitation hardening alloys has assumed a major role in modern day development of alloys. In his search for stronger, harder materials, the metallurgist has often been limited by the cost of metals which posses the needed properties.
