3392. 41 245. Apparatus for testing friction-pair materials. ( U S S R ) A new form o f a p p a r a t u s for testing friction-pair materials in high v a c u u m is described. T h i s differs from conventional f o r m s in that it is provided with a hermetically-sealed c h a m b e r inside which the materials to be tested are placed; the c h a m b e r c o m m u n i c a t e s with a h i g h - v a c u u m system. T h i s enables friction a n d wear to be determined over a wide range o f temperatures under h i g h - v a c u u m conditions. T h e a p p a r a t u s is furnished with the usual backing a n d oil-vapour p u m p s , a nitrogen trap, a friction-testing machine, a n d a system for c h a n g i n g the specimen without disturbing the v a c u u m plant. A gallium-base eutectic with a melting point o f 14~'C is used as insulating liquid; this enables the c h a m b e r to be heated to 300°C. T h e p u m p system enables the pressure in the test c h a m b e r to be reduced to 5:: 10 9 torr; v a c u u m gauges are provided at various points for m o n i t o r i n g purposes.

W h e r e a s existing BeO-base ceramics have p o o r thermal conductivity, leading to frequent overheating a n d short lifetimes of vital c o m p o n e n t s , the new material, in addition to high v a c u u m tightness, h a s a g o o d thermal conductivity a n d low dielectric constant, with low losses. T h e main c o m p o n e n t s of the new ceramic are BeO 95-97, C a O 0.85~).88, A1203 1.13-1.17, SiO2 0.92-0.95 per cent. Only high-quality BeO is used in preparing the ceramic; the high v a c u u m properties are achieved by roasting in flame or hydrogen furnaces at 1750°C.

(USSR) A n electron-beam m e t h o d of welding tungsten a n d nickel c o m p o n e n t s in the leads to electrical v a c u u m systems is described, together with the properties o f the welded joints. T h e heating a n d melting of the two c o m p o n e n t wires is effected by the heat c o m m u n i c a t e d to the tungsten c o m p o n e n t by a well-focused electron beam, the wires being fixed in a special holder set in the working c h a m b e r .
