Small crystals of natural graphite showing no evidence of twinning were found in a sample of marble from the Lead Hill mine (Ticonderoga, New York). They were isolated, handled very carefully to avoid deformation, and their $c$-axis conductivity determined. It was found to be about 2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}$…

The thermal expansions of a number of binary lithium, sodium, and potassium silicate glasses are reported over the tempcrature range from room temperature to thcir deformation points. The expans ivities of the glasses increased with increasing alkali oxide concentration. These expansivities were used to calculate dens…

The acceleration of high temperature corrosive attack on heat-resistance alloys caused by the presence of vanadium compounds is well established. The progressive addition of sodium sulfate to the vanadium contaminant indicates that the most corrosive mixture is approximately 20 percent sodium sulfate—80 percent vanadi…

Neutron diffraction measurements have been made on iron at a series of elevated temperatures up to about 1000\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}C to establish the magnetic scattering effects through the Curie temperature and in the $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-phase region. Diffraction patterns obtained for the face-centered…

An apparatus is described to measure volumetrically the amount of gas adsorbed by a catalyst at constant pressure and at exposure times as short as 0.1 min. The volumes of oxygen adsorbed by a technical silver catalyst at pressures of 200, 400, and 700 mm. and in the temperature range of 180° to 300°C. have been measu…

During neutron irradiation at 100°c alpha uranium creeps slowly (e.g. 10−−7 per hour) under external stresses of order of one-hundredth of the normal yield stress of the metal at that temperature. This effect is predicted as a consequence of the phenomenon of “radiation-growth” which occurs in uranium, and is then con…

The magnetization of some rare-earth orthoferrites and related compounds, and of some iron-group cyanides, has been investigated at temperatures between room temperature and 1.3\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}K. Some are ferromagnetic, some antiferromagnetic, and some paramagnetic following the Curie-Weiss law.The…

Abstract The tear properties of natural rubber and GR‐S vulcanizates containing carbon black are compared with those of gum vulcanizates, using a method developed in a previous paper. The distinctive features in the tear behavior of the filed vulcanizates are noted and discussed. The results indicate that there are tw…

A phenomenological theory of the time dependence of mechanical breakdown phenomena is presented which is applicable to creep failure of oriented polymeric filaments under tensile stresses. In using the theory, one makes assumptions about the distribution of breaking times in ensembles of filaments which are bearing co…

Abstract Increasing the degree of crystallization of unoriented 66 or 610 nylon increases the stiffness, yield point, tensile strength, and hardness, but reduces the impact strength, particularly in the high crystallinity range. The impact strength was increased by increasing the molecular weight, but the other proper…

The switching time ts and the switching current imax have been measured as a function of applied field E and of the size of the sample. It has been observed that the ``activation field'' α for the nucleation of new domains is inversely proportional to the thickness of the sample. This behavior can be explained by assu…

Descemet's membrane, previously thought to be "structureless," has been found to be characterized by a fine structure of great regularity. Sections perpendicular to the plane of the membrane surface appeared to be cross-striated, with narrow dark bands separated by wide light bands traversed by fine filaments. Tangent…
