摘要:
The process of forming a composite with an alloy having an alloy component of about 0.5 to 12% aluminum and a matrix selected from a material of the group consisting of copper, iron or nickel. The alloy is heated in an oxygen-rich atmosphere to form a material oxide-rich layer on a surface of the alloy. The alloy is then heated in a reducing atmosphere to reduce the material oxide-rich layer to form an aluminum oxide on the surface of the alloy and a material-rich layer on the aluminum oxide layer.

The method of carburizing steel workpieces comprises loading workpieces to be carburized in a furnace and maintaining them in a carbon enriching atmosphere comprising carbon monoxide, hydrogen and nitrogen. The treatment comprises a first phase carried out at a temperature from 850.degree. C. to 1050.degree. C. followed by a second phase carried out at a temperature from 700.degree. C. to 950.degree. C. During the first phase an atmosphere is used having a carbon potential from about 1.1% to about 1.6% by weight and during the second phase the amount of nitrogen in the atmosphere is increased from two to thirty times so that the carbon potential for the second phase is at least about 0.5% by weight less than the carbon potential for the first phase.

There is disclosed a method of making a solar energy collector element which comprises the step of forming a carbon containing film on at least the sunlight receiving surface of a substrate which is made of an iron metal material, and then heat-treating at least the sunlight receiving surface in an oxidizing atmosphere. The solar energy collector element made by the method of the present invention is superior in selective absorption characteristics for the solar energy and inexpensive in manufacturing.
摘要:
A process for thermochemical treatment of metals with accurate control of the treatment temperature in a furnace having a structure similar to that of a classic furnace for thermal or thermochemical treatment in a rarified atmosphere, equipped with controlled heating means and, possibly cooling means, and comprising at least an anode and a cathode supporting the pieces to be treated. A cold plasma is generated around the pieces to be treated by applying between the anode and the cathode a pulse train at a relatively high frequency and of very short pulse width in relation to pulse repetition rate.
摘要:
A METHOD OF FORMATION OF A LAYER OF TITANIUM CARBIDE AT THE SURFACE OF A COMPONENT OF TITANIUM OR TITANIUM ALLOY IN WHICH THE SAID COMPONENT IS ASSOCIATED WITH A FLUID MEDIUM HAVING A BASE OF A CARBON COMPOUND SUCH AS CARBON DISULPHIDE OR CARBON TETRACHLORIDE OR A MIXTURE OF THESE TWO, AND IS SUBJECTED IN SAID MEDIUM TO A HEAT TREATMENT OF SHORT DURATION BY HIGH FREQNENCY CURRENT, BRINGING THE SURFACE OF SAID COMPONENT TO A TEMPERATURE HIGHER THAN 1100*C. AND PREFERABLY HIGHER THAN 1350* C. THE INVENTION ALSO COMPRISES THE COMPONENTS OR PARTS MADE BY THIS METHOD.
摘要:
Fuel, fertile material and/or absorber material containing particles for fuel and/or absorber elements in nuclear reactors are coated by a process comprising introducing thermally cleavable gases in the reaction space heated to above 1000.degree. C. of a fluidized bed unit with the help of a gas inlet nozzle cooled with a cooling medium and having an elongated inlet tube, decomposing the cleavable gases after leaving the nozzle, depositing the decomposition products on fuel, fertile material or absorber particles present in the fluidized bed and bringing these coated particles into fuel elements or absorber elements. The cooling medium is solely gaseous and only the portion of the inlet tube for the nozzle tips of the gas inlet nozzles within the axis are cooled and the heat flow penetrating from outside is reduced by heat insulation. An apparatus for carrying out the process is also described.
摘要:
An outer receptacle has at least one opening for receiving an elongated article to be treated and an inner metal container, within the receptacle, is arranged to around only that portion of the article that is to receive treatment. An electrode in and insulated from the metal container is spaced from the article so that the receptacle, container and article can be held at one potential while a different potential is applied to the electrode to produce a glow discharge and heat only that portion of the article within the metal container. The structure also provides for introducing a selected gas into the container and receptacle.
摘要:
A method for making said rigid pyrolytic graphite article comprising winding a continuous, individual, refractory filament or strand around a shaped form and simultaneously pyrolyzing a mixture of methyl trichlorosilane and a hydrocarbon gas onto the filament or strand at about the point of winding contact to nucleate pyrolytic graphite and SiC from the filament or strand, winding additional turns of the filament or strand around the form, each additional turn being spaced from previously wound turns and, as each of the additional turns is wound, simultaneously pyrolyzing the mixture of methyl trichlorosilane and hydrocarbon gas thereon at about the point of winding contact and on the codeposited pyrolytic graphite and SiC nucleated from previously wound turns.
摘要:
To carbide coiled-coil tantalum or tantalum alloy filament without causing it to distort, the coiled-coil metal filament is supported in a firing container consisting essentially of carbon as the only container component which will react with tantalum. The interstices between individual coils of the coiled-coil filament are filled with finely divided carbon, preferably graphite. The container and filament are then heated in an atmosphere of carbon or carbon plus nitrogen as the only reactive gases under predetermined temperature conditions and for a predetermined period of time sufficient to convert the filament to stoichiometric carbide.
