This book was released on 1964 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study was undertaken to determine the effects of the interstitial impurities oxygen and carbon on the mechanical properties of polycrystalline tungsten and high-purity tungsten single crystals. Results of tensile tests showed that additions of both oxygen and carbon to polycrystalline tungsten produced a marked increase in the ductile to brittle transition temperature. Oxygen and carbon produced a much smaller increase in the transition temperature of the single-crystal specimens compared with equivalent amounts of impurities in the polycrystalline specimens. Addition of oxygen to polycrystalline tungsten lowered both the ultimate tensile strength and the yield strength, but had no measurable effect on the strength properties of single-crystal specimens. Carbon additions to both polycrystalline and single-crystal specimens did not affect the ultimate tensile strength; however, a large increase in the yield strength resulted. The results suggest that oxygen embrittlement in tungsten is caused by grain-boundary segregation, while carbon embrittlement results from an interaction between carbon atoms and dislocations within the tungsten lattice.

This book was released on 1966 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study has been conducted of the properties of tungsten fabricated from three ingots consolidated by electron-beam melting. The study included purity as a function of number of melts, recrystallization a d grain growth behavior, low-temperature ductility, and high-temperature tensile and creep strength. The level of most metallic impurities in tungsten decreased with increasing number of electron-beam melts, the reduction being greatest for aluminum, iron, nickel, and silicon. The levels of interstitial impurities generally were not affected by remelting. Resistivity ratios for single crystals machined from ingot slices tended to increase on remelting. The recrystallization rates for worked, electron-beam- melted (EB-melted) tungsten were significantly higher than those observed earlier for arc-melted tungsten. The grain growth rates of EB-melted tungsten were higher than those reported previously for arc-melted tungsten, further reflecting the higher purity of the EB-melted materials. The activation energies for both recrystallization and grain growth in EB-melted tungsten were consistent with expected values assuming grain boundary self-diffusion to be the rate-controlling reaction. The ductile-brittle bend transition temperature for EB-melted tungsten is slightly higher in the worked condition than that reported for arc-melted tungsten. In the recrystallized conditions, the transition temperatures for EB- and arc-melted tungsten are similar. The tensile strength of EB-melted tungsten at 2500 to 4000 F is less than that of arc-melted tungsten. This is partly associated with the large grain size of EB-melted tungsten. However, when compared at the same grain size,

This book was released on 1966 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new technique for removing interstitial impurities from b.c.c. metals was devised in which a very high purity atmosphere of hydrogen was maintained over samples being heated at high temperature. For iron, this technique was shown to reduce the carbon to less than 0.005 ppm, nitrogen to less than 2 ppm, and oxygen as low as 3 ppm. The level of oxygen also depended upon the oxygen concentration in the starting material. The high-purity hydrogen purification technique was combined with other techniques such as zone melting, and high-purity arc melting to produce iron, molybdenum, and tungsten of high purity with respect to interstitial impurities. The effects of interstitial impurities on the mechanical properties of these metals were examined. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of oxygen on the mechanical properties of commercial polycrystalline tungsten and zone-refined single-crystal tungsten was evaluated by means of tensile tests of oxygen-doped specimens in the ductile-to-brittle transition temperature range. The effect of oxygen as a surface oxide that might be encountered in normal working and forming operations was evaluated by means of a three-point loading bend test at room temperature. Oxygen doping of the polycrystalline and single-crystal tensile specimens was accomplished by equilibrating the specimen and tungsten oxide powder in a sealed tungsten capsule at high temperatures. A desired oxygen concentration could be achieved by varying the time of doping in the temperature range of 3000 to 3600 F. Results showed that the commercial recrystallized rods containing 4 parts per million (ppm) oxygen had a ductile-to-brittle transition temperature (based on 50-percent reduction in area) of 4500 F. Increasing the oxygen concentration to 10, 30, and 50 ppm increased the transition temperature to 6600, 840, and 1020 F, respectively. The oxygen additions also produced a progressive lowering of the ultimate tensile strength. The mechanism for the effect of oxygen on the transition temperature and ultimate tensile strength is believed to be that of segregation of the oxygen atoms at the grain boundaries. The oxygen additions also caused a progressive lowering of the yield strength, which is believed to result from the interaction of oxygen with carbon atoms or other impurity atoms present in the tungsten lattice.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In writing this monograph, the aim has been to consider the mechanical properties of the wide range of materials now available in such a way as to start with the fundamental nature of these properties and to follow the discussion through to the point at which the reader is able to comprehend the significance or otherwise of the large amounts of data now available in design manuals and other compilations. In short, it is hoped that this volume will be used as a companion to these data compilations and as an aid to their interpretation. In attempting to cover such a wide field, a large degree of selection has been necessary, as complete volumes have been written on topics which here have had to be covered in a few pages or less. It is inevitable that not everyone will agree with the choice made, especially if it is his own subject which has been discussed rather briefly, and the author accepts full res ponsibility for the selection made. The book is written at a level which should be easily followed by a university graduate in science or engineer ing, although, if his background has not included a course in materials science, some groundwork may be lacking.
