1576. Influence of vacuum refining of ahuninium on gas content. (USSR)

The effect of vacuum degassing, temperature, pressure and time and initial gas content on thefinal gas content and mechanical properties of A14. A15. and A19 Al alloys is investigated. The tests are conducted’in ai industrial vacuum distributing furnace at a residual pressure of over 1 torr and 720-750°C for 25-30 min. The effect of vacuum degassing Al alloys on their immunity to reverse gas adsorption is determined. P P Berg et al, Liteinoe Proizv, 8, 1965, 39-40, (in Russian) 31 1577. Thermodynamic conditions of metal degassing during vacuum melting. (USSR)

A refractory metal/gas system is evaluated with regard to degassing capability under conditions of high vacuum refining. Evaluation is based on a coefficient relating composition in the vapour and liquid phases which is a measure of the capacity of the metal for purification. This coefficient is directly proportional to the gas concentration in the metal and exponentially related to the temperature of the melt. The influence of temperature on the effectiveness of cleansing is a function of the heat of gas dissolution in the metal and its ratio to the heat of metal vaporization.

While gas removal is more effective with vacuum methods, sulphur and other impurities are more effectively removed by electroslag remelting. This results in superior ductility compared with vacuum remelted metal. J Hlineny, et al, Hutnicka Conf VSBV Ostrave, Sbornik Referatu Ocelarske

A simple compact laboratory vacuum filter for chemical and metallurgical suspensions consists of a 0.58 m diameter disk with a 0.25 m2 filtering surface. The disk, assembled on a horizontal cellulartype drum, of tubular construction, is immersed in a steam-jacketed trough with agitator. The disk is divided into 10 sectors from which the liquid is drained through corresponding channels in the cellular drum. V P Tamtin, Khim i Neft Mashinostr, 12, 1966, 3, (in Russian). 37 1590.

(Czechoslovakia)

Heat-resisting 12 per cent Cr steel and transformer steel as well as bearing and austenitic stainless steel were remelted in vacuum and electroslag furnaces on the laboratory scale in a series of 40 mns.

The processing capacity of vacuum-distillation plants in which the same column is used successively for the distillation of an overhead from the reduced crude oil and then the redistillation of the refined overhead, can be increased by the use of a supplementary column. The suggested processing scheme consists of vacuum flashing of the reduced crude in a new column, refining of the overhead distillate, and rerunning of the raffinate in the existing column. An outline of the design calculations for steam and vacuum requirements is given for doubling the processing capacity of a plant by the above method.

1592. Vacuum cladding of titanium.

(USSR)

Strong bimetals Ti-Nb, Ti-Ta, and Ti-Mo were prepared by vacuum cladding at 1200°C. Prolonged heating caused deep diffusion and structural changes in the contact zones, without embrittlement and weakening of the bond. R A Ul’vanov and S F Kovtun. Tsvetn.
