A continuous process for the production of ceramic materials has been studied.
This method reacted metal and oxidizer in a diffusionally controlled process,
demonstrated by reacting a magnesium particle stream and hot water vapor. Many small
rich hydrogen/air diffusion flames provide an atmosphere of hot water vapor, hydrogen,
and nitrogen...
This study was initiated to determine the concentration
of magnesium and calcium in dividing eggs of the sea
urchin Stroncavocentrotus purpuratus and to explore the
relationship between these ions and mitotic events.
Samples of developing eggs, maintained at 15°C, were
taken at ten-minute intervals from fertilization through
the second cleavage,...
Part I discusses the development of an aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy that may combine strength, extrudability, favorable corrosion resistance with low cost and scrap compatibility. The first part of the study determined the effects of small composition, heat treatment and mechanical processing changes on the ambient temperature tensile properties of the alloy....
The Kroll Process for the production of zirconium utilizes
the reduction of zirconium tetrachloride with metallic magnesium.
Control of the magnesium content of the final zirconium metal is
essential, as residual magnesium adversely influences the properties
of zirconium.
In this thesis a volumetric method has been presented for the
determination...
This report is one of a series issued in cooperation with the ANC-23 Panel on Sandwich Construction of the Departments of the Air Force, Navy, and Commerce.
Performing bridge inspections can be a very daunting task for every department of transportation (DOT) in the country. Because the leading cause of deterioration in reinforced concrete bridge decks is corrosion of the steel reinforcement, the ability to detect the concentration of corrosion-causing chlorides in the concrete, using a non-destructive...
