Annealing tests on steel wire in different atmospheres. iGc,f./?ltr/f~/ The authors examined the Influcncc of atmospheres, inert (argon), reducing (H,, CO, also air) gases or vacuum on the quality of wlre drawn from steel. Investigation on alloyed and unalloyed steels wa$ carrlcd out for hardness. tensile strength, bending and torsional properties. duc’ility, structure and surface finish. The least change in structure was observed on annealing in vacuum, and the best wire surface finish was observed on annealing in H,.

37 469. Vacuum degassing liquid steel in the hearth. I Spain) Degassing of melted steel to remove H,, OL, and N? is carried out by spraying, agitating, elevating and circulating it under vacuum. It is concluded on the basis of thermodynamic and kinetic calculations that the best degassingrange is I-IO mm Hg and that it is done most effectively on finely divided drops of steel.

38 479. High resistivity tantalum films. (Germa/lj,) The properties of thin Ta films have been determined with special consideration of influences due to the deposition process. It is shown that the resistivity and the temperature coefficient of sputtered films are strongly dependent on the sputtering voltage while the sputtering time and density produce essentially no changes. The observed phenomena are caused by a lower packing density of Ta films. H J Schiltze, Vakuum-Terhnik, 14 18), Dee 1965. 213-217, lit7 German) 38 480. Use of a hollow cathode for determining gases in solids by the isotope-balancing method. (USSR) A spectral-isotope method of determining gases in solids using a hollow-cathode discharge tube is described. A special attachment is provided to allow introduction of samples without breaking the vacuum. The operating conditions of the apparatus, including the isotope-balancing conditions and the conditions for the excitation of spectra, arc discussed. A preferred sequence of operations for efficient use of this method is laid down and preliminary experiments on the analysis of CO and N, are dcscrlbed; this gives a fair idea of the sensitivity of the method and precautions required to maintain this at a high level. The masking effects of residual gases can be eliminated by preliminary heat treatment of the cathode in pure helium.

A reversed-bending. high-temperature fatigue machine for operation at constant bending amplitude in vacuum has been developed. The vibration frequency is maintained at resonance by means of a feedback circuit employing a capacitance pick-up, and the amplitude of the vibration is maintained constant by another circuit. The resonant frequency is reduced as fatigue cracks arc developed. Curves of resonant frequency versus time at 800°C for 3 I6 stainless steel and Inconel X, illustrate the development of fatigue damage.
