Investigation of the Effect of Ultra Rapid Quenching on Metallic Systems, Including Beryllium Alloys.

Abstract

Open-ended Terms: Quenching. Progress is reported of an investigation of the effect of ultra-rapid quenching on certain alloys of Be. The experimental techniques previously developed were applied with only minor modifications to alloys of the systems Be-O, Be-Al, Be-Si, Be-Sc, Be-Ni, Be-Cu, and Be-Zn. No changes in phase appear to have been induced by ultra-rapid quenching in most of the alloys tested, although a shift of lattice parameter has been observed in several. Definite phase changes appear to have been induced in one Be-Cu alloy and in two Be-Ni alloys, but these result are subject to further confirmation. (Author)
