Review of Recent Developments in the Technology of Tungsten


Book Description

This memorandum briefly reviews a number of current developments of general interest in the technology of tungsten. Most of this information was received during the period Aug through Oct 1961. Included in the discussion are: procedures for making W sheet; extrusion; annealing of W foils; fiber metallurgy; fabrication of W and W alloy single crystals; W alloys; and oxidation of W.







Review of Recent Developments in the Technology of High-strength Stainless Steels


Book Description

Research and development in the field of high-strength stainless steels appears to be directed along two principal paths: (1) the development of alloys with improved strength properties and (2) the accumulation of information on the properties and physical metallurgy of existing alloys so that they may be used more effectively. By and large, the development of new alloys is being carried out by the stainless-steel producers, while the accumulation of property data for the most part is being undertaken on Government contracts.
