Florida Kaolin As The Chief Clay Ingredient For A Sanitary Ware Casting Body, Hugo Logan Harrod

Bachelors Theses

"The purpose of this investigation was to utilize a large percentage of Florida Plastic Kaolin in a new sanitary ware casting body. Such a body, when worked out to be satisfactory, could be produced at a lower cost than those bodies being used in American plants at present. This particular plastic kaolin is available in large quantities in the southeastern portion of the United States. It is the intention of this work to substitute this American clay for the more costly imported English China Clay now being used in sanitary ware casting bodies"--Introduction, Purpose of the Investigation, page 1.

Beneficiation Of Manganese Ores, Michael V. Healey

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this investigation is to study the means of beneficiating domestic manganese ores in order that a marketable product may be made. Within the limits of the paper the term "Manganese ores" is applied to those ores mined primarily for their manganese content, to the exclusion of manganiferous iron and silver ores"--Object, page 1.

The Change In The Order Of Catalytic Action Of Lithium Chloride, Sodium Chloride, Magnesium Chloride, And Calcium Chloride In The Ketonic Splitting Of Ethyl Acetoacetate, Richard Dwight Duff

Masters Theses

"The catalytic action of neutral salts on many reactions has been investigated under various conditions, and a large number of explanations have been put forward. In this work the catalytic action of normal solutions of lithium chloride, sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, and calcium chloride in the presence of .1 N. hydrochloric acid on the ketonic splitting of ethyl acetoacetate has been investigated at several temperatures between 80⁰C. and 95⁰C. An attempt has been made to explain the results obtained"--Introduction, page 1.

A Study Of The Determination Of Fluorine And Other Constituents In Fluorspar, Robert Knowlton Grantham

Masters Theses

"A method for the determination of certain constituents in fluorspar has been studied. Fluorspar can be complete decomposed by fuming with perchloric acid. Agitation and boiling is essential to a rapid and quantitative decomposition. Lead, ferric oxide, titanium oxide, aluminum oxide and total calcium have been quantitatively determined in the solution obtained by the perchloric acid method of decomposition. Silica cannot be determined quantitatively by the use of perchloric acid alone. Preferential solution of calcium carbonate by means of very dilute perchloric acid cannot be used as a method for determining calcium in carbonates in the presence of calcium fluoride"--Summary, …

The Manufacture Of Airtight Leather Gaskets, W. Kedzie Teller

Professional Degree Theses

"Wherever gaskets are used in conjunction with any type of mechanism operated by compressed air, of course, it is essential that the gaskets be air tight. Whereas it is possible to use rubberized fabric for this purpose with a degree of satisfaction, treated leather has certain advantages which make its use preferable. Leather is readily available and can be cut and molded into various shapes with less difficulty than is encountered in fabricating similar designs from reinforced rubber. Then, too, leather withstands wear much better than rubberized fabric. The problem then arises to treat leather to make it airtight, for …
