Age Hardening of Copper Antimony Alloys

A large number of alloys of varying percentages of copper and antimony were prepared. These alloys were treated in various ways which might be expected to produce age hardening. The effect of cold working was studied in the range where the alloys were malleable.

The Electrodeposition of Copper-Cobalt Alloys

An attempt was made to deposit a 50:50 copper-cobalt alloy from various sulfate electrolytes. No true 50:50 alloy was obtained but various mixtures of cobalt and copper rich crystals were deposited.

Hydrogen Overvoltage of Cadmium Bismuth and Antimony Bismuth Alloys

A method to measure hydrogen overvoltage was devel­oped and checked with metals of known overvoltage. Alloys of bismuth and antimony and of bismuth and cad­mium were prepared and their overvoltages determined.

The Solubility of Zinc Ethyl Xanthate in Water

A determination of the solubility of zinc ethyl xanthate was attempted by measuring the refractive index of a saturated solution of that salt. The small increment in refractive index effected by adding zinc ethyl xanthate to water in saturation quantities rendered measurements difficult and of dubious accuracy.

Electroplating of Chromium upon a Nickel Plated Magnesium Alloy

A nickel plating operation for magnesium alloys was investigated and proved successful in plating a small sample of a typical commercial magnesium alloy, Dowmetal J1.

Permability and Porosity of Devonian Dolomites in Northwestern Montana

The purpose of this investigation is to record data per­taining to porosity and permeability derived from physical tests performed on Devonian dolomites occurring in northwestern Montana, and to subsequently summarize the results obtained as an aid in determining the possibility of those dolomites being suitable reservoir rocks for oil and gas accumulation.

Vermiculite, Occurence, Character, and Concentration of Mineral from the Pony District, Madison County, Montana

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the occurrence and character of the vermiculite deposits approximately four miles northwest of Pony; Madison County, Montana. The deposits are situated in rolling foothills at the northern end of the Tobacco Root Mountains.

A Preliminary Investigation of the Hydrometallurgy of Philipsburg Manganese

In the past the steel industry of the United States has depended almost wholly on imports for its supplies of manganese. Although it is well known that there are enormous deposits of low grade manganese ore in the United States the production of substantial amounts of ferro-grade mater­ial from domestic sources presents a field for con­structive and practical research.
