The Use Of Carbides In Refractories, James Adamson Crookston

Masters Theses

"With the new demands being made on the ceramic industry in mind, it was thought that an investigation of the ceramic possibilities of certain high melting refractory materials might prove of interest and value. The high melting materials are the oxides, carbides, nitrides, borides, and hydrides. Since a great deal of work has been done on the oxides, and relatively little on the others, the oxides were dismissed. Of the other groups, the carbides seemed interesting. Of the carbides, the following materials were chosen for investigation: Boron Carbide (B₄C), Zirconium carbide (ZrC), and Titanium carbide (TiC). These materials were chosen …

The Effects Of Estrogens On The Thyroid & Adrenal Glands Of The Male Turtle, Jeanne Frances Genrich

Bachelors’ Theses

Up to the present time there appears to have been very little research done on the thyroid or adrenal glands of the turtle. This seems to be especially true in respect to the effects of estrogens on these two glands. However, some work has been reported on other members of the reptilian family; particularly garter snakes, and more recently, the lizard.

Ethylcellulose Lacquer Coatings For Polystyrene Plastics., Stuart V. Heil

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

An ethylcellulose lacquer system for both decorative and protective purposes was developed for use on polystyrene plastics. It was found that a one-coat lacquer containing only alcohol solvents produced the most satisfactory finish. Formulations were based on experimental work, conducted to determine the effect of the various lacquer components on the plastic. The results of a study of formulations on a two-coat system are presented.

The methods involved parting of the wood fibers on the surface by a special serrating tool, followed by a surface impregnation and final curing. This section presents work carried on to determine the optimum conditions for serrating and subsequent impregnation. The effect of species on impregnation. and the impregnation of unfinished …

Improved Techniques For Washing Iron Blue Suspensions : Ii. The Preparation Of O, O'-Dichlorobenzidine From O-Chloronitrobenzene., Marvin L. Gernert

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

I. IMPROVED TECHNIQUES FOR WASHING IRON BLUE SUSPENSIONS

The investigation of several procedures for the speeding of the washing of iron blue suspensions to remove electrolytes is reported. The use of several techniques to coagulate blue particles in the colloidal range to cause more rapid settling was found to be of little value. A conventional Oliver filter and centrifugal clarifier were found to be unsatisfactory for clearing iron blue suspensions. Considerable advantage in washing by settling and decantation was obtained with the settling of the blue suspensions in relatively shallow vessels. A continuous washing procedure was developed whereby the blue …
