properties
1198-1211 of air and vacuum melted AISI-4340
37 steel.
Several commercial heats of air and vacuum melted AN-4340 steel were investigated to determine their mechanical properties. Data were derived from Charpy impact tests and tensile tests. The effect of decreasing phosphorus and sulphur content is correlated with changes in impact energy at 100 per cent fibrous structure, mechanical anisotropy and tensile properties.

(USA)
Previous studies have indicated use of vacuum should improve surface finish, soundness, mechanical properties and techniques in die casting. Description of work done in these areas at DoehlerJarvis Division, National Lead Co., Toledo, Ohio, to determine which vacuum process is best suited and most economical for their production.

A review, covering also factors to be considered in the auxiliary equipment such as pumps for obtaining various vacuums required. Various electric furnaces are considered. The application of vacuum techniques to the following metals are described briefly: Cu, Ti, Zr, MO, V, W, and Cr-Ni alloys. G Zuliani, Rev Met, 1 (4), 1965, 332-345, (in Spanish). 1201.

(USA) Since the oxide bond of usual glass-to-metal seals deteriorate when exposed to alkali-metal vapours at high temperatures, direct glass-to-metal seals have been developed for use in vacuum tubes containing alkali vapours. The report describes the techniques used to construct such seals. The metals used were tungsten, molybdenum, Kovar, chromallized molybdenum and Kovar and chromium plated molybdenum. The glasses were Corning 7740, 1720, 3320, 1720, 7052 and 1056. The report describes the cleaning techniques of the wires (0.040 in. diameter) the beading techniques of the wires, and the manufacturing technique of nine-pin presses.

The alloys tested include (JO/30) brass, Al-bronze (J6/22/2) and Admiralty alloy without As(J0/22/2) and with As (70/29/l). The tubes which in operation show intercrystalline corrosion, show a high weight loss after vacuum annealing, and this can be attributed to an increase in the effective evaporating surface.

In designing vacuum electric furnaces for heat treatments, it is necessary to know the amount of gases escaping from the metals. The amount of gases liberated from transformer steel was studied as a function of temperature (850-l 150”) and time (5-30 min) of heating. The data obtained can be used in calculating the capacity of vacuum pumps and vacuum systems of electric furnaces. V E Kochnov, (in Russian).
