CORROSION COMMENTARY
UNSOLVED CORROSION PROBLEMS. IF large numbers of stressed specimens of a specific metal or alloy are exposed simultaneously, why do some specimens fail by stress corrosion…
Corrosion in Relation to Welding
U.R. EvansAlthough under many conditions a carefully made weld should introduce no special corrosion risk, the fact remains that welding raises special corrosion problems. The reasons are…
Non‐Metallic Materials of Construction for Handling Radioactive Wastes
L.H. GriffithsThe problem of disposing of radioactive effluents is growing bigger as more nuclear plants are built and industry generally makes increasing use of radioactive chemicals in…
Anti‐Corrosive Paint Tests in Belgium
Preliminary results of tests with 67 anti‐corrosive paints undertaken in Belgium by the A.B.E.M. (Association Beige pour l'Etude, l'Essai et l'Emploi des Materiaux) are given in a…
Radioactive Testing of Rust Preventives
W. SummerThe author describes a quick and reliable method of testing rust preventives which employs chemicals tagged with radioactive tracers. He includes also a note on handling and…
PAINT VERSUS CORROSION—2
H. DiamondIn the first part of this article which appeared last month, Mr. Diamond dealt with the composition, application and drying of anti‐corrosive paints. Here he considers the many…
Corrosion of Aluminium Cable Sheathing
In their lecture on aluminium‐sheathed cables read before the Institution of Electrical Engineers in London recently, P. M. Hollingsworth and P. A. Raine discussed at some length…
Cutting Fluids and Corrosion: EFFECTS OF SOLUBLE CUTTING OILS ON MACHINE TOOL SURFACES
Valuable information on the corrosion of drilling, turning, milling and grinding machine surfaces by soluble cutting oils was brought to light by tests carried out by the…
CORROSION RESEARCH ROUND‐UP
Intel‐crystalline corrosion of zinc‐aluminium‐copper alloys. These alloys undergo intercrystalline corrosion if admixtures of Pb, Cd, Sn, Th and Bi exceed certain small limits. In…
Corrosion and Tablet Machinery
K.A. MitchellIn a number of industries where tablet‐making machines are used—for example, pharmaceuticals and confectionery —corrosion spells contamination. Therefore, it is not simply a…
CORROSION PATENTS
Rinsing phosphated metals. Ferrous metals or Zn which have been phosphated are further protected by rinsing in a solution containing 1 to 40 oz. CrO3 per 100 gal. and sufficient…
Scandinavian Corrosion Conference: SUMMARIES OF SWEDISH CONTRIBUTIONS
Paul Nylén, Uno Trägardh, Kurt Fr. TrägardhLast month we published condensed versions of papers, mostly by Danish scientists but including one British contribution, presented at the Scandinavian Corrosion Conference which…
The Search for Corrosion‐Resistant Steels: Methods and Equipment used by an American Aircraft Company
THE engineering laboratory of the American Ryan Aeronautical Co. operates on two broad paths: analytical control and research. It controls the standards for all materials and…
