Ultra high purity, dimensionally stable INVAR 36

An INVAR 36 material having long-term dimensional stability is produced by sintering a blend of powders of nickel and iron under pressure in an inert atmosphere to form an alloy containing less than 0.01 parts of carbon and less than 0.1 part aggregate and preferably 0.01 part individually of Mn, Si, P, S and Al impurities. The sintered alloy is heat treated and slowly and uniformly cooled to form a material having a coefficient of thermal expansion of less than 1 ppm/C and a temporal stability of less than 1 ppm/year.

Temporally And Thermally Stable Iron/Nickel Alloy

Specially prepared version of commerical low-thermal-expansion iron/nickel alloy exhibits unprecedented thermal and temporal dimensional stability. Consists of high-purity powder-metallurgy process followed by heat treatment. High-purity processing imparts unusual combination of properties.

Proof Testing Of Stainless-Steel Bolts

Report describes study of development of method for nondestructive proof testing of bolts made of A286 stainless steel. Based on concept that the higher load bolt survives, the smaller the largest flaw and, therefore, the longer its fatigue life after test. Calculations and experiments increase confidence in nondestructive proof tests.
