The problem herein discussed deals with the pointing planes found in the area of rhyolite located in the northwestern portion of the Butte District. The question to be determined was whether or not the pointing planes in the rhyolites could be class­ified with the Butte Ore fissure systems.

A Bentonite Deposit Near Warm Springs, Montana, R. H. Larson

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

This report deals with a bentonite deposit recently developed, approximately seven miles northeast of Warm Springs, Montana. A group of claims have been staked on the deposit and are owned by the Lincoln Mining Company of Anaconda, Montana. The company also has several claims prospected for silver one mile from its present site of operations, but the silver prospects have failed to produce. The bentonite deposit was discovered incidentally during the course of other development work, and at present two adits have been driven into the side of a mountain, each crosscutting a vein-like mass of bentonite varying from two …

The Quantitative Estimation Of Solvents And Non-Solvents As Found In Lacquer Preparations, Harry Katzowsky

Bachelors’ Theses

The study of solvents and non-solvents in lacquers entails a great deal of work which is unable to be covered in so small a space of time, and although this thesis attempts to understand the use of these solvents and non-solvents, it is just a mere uncovering of much more interesting work able to be done with further analysis in this field.

The Rate Of Precipitation Of Copper Aluminide In The Silver Rich Silver-Copper-Aluminum Alloys, Thomas Finley Mcbride

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

In order to determine the best annealing temperature at which to age-harden the alloys, hardness tests on speci­men annealed for different lengths of time at different temperatures were made.

The Effect Of Hydrogen Overvoltage On The Electrolytic Deposition Of Zinc, John M. Munzenrider, Kenneth O. Sweeney

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

In the deposition of metallic zinc by electro­lysis from neutral or acid solution, little difficulty is experienced provided certain impurities are absent from the electrolyte. The use of the process has long been considered as a potential source, patents on the process having been issued as early as 1880. However, the early experimenters failed to realize the importance of impurities in the electrolyte, and for this reason, the process suffered several severe setbacks when commercial plants were built.

The Electrolytic Deposition Of Chromium Upon Aluminum, E. Fults, L. D. Voerge

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose or this investigation is primarily to determine the best conditions for plating chromium on aluminum. The work was carried out with the hope of obtaining coherent deposits, and of determin­ing the conditions under which such deposits may be duplicated.

A Study Of Methods For Determining The Solvents And Diluents Used In Lacquers, William O'Donnell

Bachelors’ Theses

The subject matter of this thesis deals with methods of analysis for lacquer solvents and diluents. Lacquers are a comparatively new product and a big field of investigation is open to anyone. This subject as taken bee use it offered a special appeal to be able to investigate something that was new and practical.

The History Of The Parallel Postulate And Non-Euclidean Geometry, Clare Switalski

Bachelors’ Theses

After approximately two thousand years mathematicians have ventured to dispute the geometry of Euclid. Euclid's axioms were regarded as indisputable laws of space, the sole source from which his theorems were deduced. One needs only to survey the history of the controversies concerning his parallel postulate to be convinced that his assumptions are only metaphysical, since these assumptions can be changed when a space different from Euclid's is considered.

The Decomposition Of Mixed Ethers And A Quantitative Scheme For The Determination Of A Quaternary Mixture Of Alcohols And Iodides, Ellsworth H. Stock

Bachelors’ Theses

To introduce some recent advances covering the decomposition of mixed ethers and the quantitative scheme for quaternary mixtures of alcohols and iodides is the privilege and responsibility of this paper. The first part of the paper deals with the oxidation, and quantitative determination of binary mixtures of alcohols. The last half covers the separation of the alcohols from the iodides, the decomposition of the mixed ethers, and the complete outline for determining the amount of alcohols resulting from the decomposition. Tables, graphs, and drawings have been included in the text, because the complete understanding of the method depends to some …

An Investigation Of Methods Used In Mine Analysis Of Iron Ores From The Nashwauk, Minnesota District, Walter F. Joyce

Bachelors’ Theses

In the mining industry like in any other industry the products of the mines and the raw materials are constantly analyzed. Three different analyses are made, on crude ore, on the concentrates and on the cargo. Highest permissible error is allowed on crude ore and mine samples.

The Development Of A Quantitative Scheme For The Separation Of Quaternary Mixtures Of Alkyl Halides And Alcohols, Edward Joseph Pfeifer

Bachelors’ Theses

Organic chemistry offers a large field for quantitative investigation. The nature of many organic compounds makes for difficult analysis. The separation of simple mixtures is oftentimes a problem. The work undertaken in this thesis is of special interest because it combines several phases of chemistry, in the investigation of a problem, which by its very existence, suggests the need for solution.

Photometry, Arthur G. Barkow

Bachelors’ Theses

The preparation of this paper was not undertaken primarily with a view of discussing all types of photometer, but mostly for the investigation of the Ritchie Wedge. As for the first part, the history or resume is brief and somewhat incomplete. In the ensuing pages, no reference is given to the portable photometer, so helpful to illuminating engineers. This was not deemed necessary since the principle involved is similar to those discussed.

Throwing Power Of A Chromium Plating Bath Containing Hydrofluoric Acid Instead Of Sulfphuric Acid, Clarence E. Barta

Bachelors’ Theses

Chromium was discovered in 1797 by a Frence Chemist named Vauquelin who gave it its name from a Greek word for color because of its variety of colors which its various compounds show. The electrode-deposition of Chromium from a Chromium acid solution has been an accomplished feature for the past century but it has only been in the past few years that the mechanism of the process has been sufficiently understood to permit its commercial application.

Harding and Barrows state that it is possible to ob­tain satisfactory Chromium deposits from Chromic acid baths containing compounds other than sulfuric acid which …

A Study Of The Inhibiting Value Of Various Separators On The Plating Of Lead, Lawrence E. Ehrnst

Bachelors’ Theses

This thesis was suggested by the work of Mr. B. J. Pozorski and Mr. W. Adashek. Mr. Pozorski investigated the inhibiting qualities of various separators when placed between two platinum electrodes in a copper sulfate solution. Mr. Adashek worked on the efficiency of various lead plating solutions using lead electrodes and electrlyes containing soluble lead salts. Combining the work of these men, the author is investigating the prohibitive plating properties of various separator using a lead plating solution. By so doing, the investigation has a closer relationship to the actual performance of the storage battery .

Current Efficiency Of Various Chromium Plating Baths, Clarence R. Hanus

Bachelors’ Theses

Chromium is one of the hardest metals and when properly plated gives a beautiful lustre. It has a fine resistance to oxidizing agents and does not tarnish up to 600°C. Oxygen has little effect on chromium plate, making the latter invaluable for embellishments and decorative purposes.

However, there are difficulties to be overcome in chromium plating, such as,

1. Poor throwing power.
2. Formation of trivalent chromium.
3. Evolution of hydrogen at the cathode.

It has been found that current efficiency is low, resulting in low throwing power, uneven plating and waste of electric energy.

In this thesis it will be attempted to …
