THE ROLE OF OXYGEN IN THE BRITTLE BEHAVIOR OF METALS ZONE REFINING PHASE.
Abstract
The basic principles of the zone refining process are discussed. An electron beam zone refiner was built and has been used to successfully produce zone refined molybdenum rods. Additionally, a commercially manufactured induction zone refiner was purchased and several 1/4 in. diameter zone refined molybdenum rods have been purified with it. Improvements in the filament design have compensated for some of the problems created by molybdenum vapor deposition. (Author)
