Age Hardening of Silver-Platinum Alloys

The alloy system selected for study was the binary alloy of platinum and silver. An examination of the various silver alloy diagrams revealed that of several possible alloys, the silver platinum was the most suit­able with regard to solubility.

The Rate of Precipitation of Copper Aluminide in the Silver Rich Silver-Copper-Aluminum Alloys

In order to determine the best annealing temperature at which to age-harden the alloys, hardness tests on speci­men annealed for different lengths of time at different temperatures were made.

Alloys of Lead and Tellurium

Prior to the last few years little practical use was made of the element tellurium, which is obtained from gold and silver tellurides and from the slimes of electro­lytic copper refineries. Lately, however, more study has been made of its properties when alloyed with other metals. It was the purpose of this thesis to study the effects of the addition of tellurium to lead, particularly in small amounts.

An Investigation of the Properties of some of the White Metal Alloys

Although there is no standardized list of alloys, most investigators have, to avoid confusion, concurred in at least grouping the metals under several general heads. Precious metals: gold, silver and the platinum group; the light metals: aluminum and magnesium; the non-ferrous metals (excluding all steels and iron-base alloys); and the antifriction metals.

The Theory of Alloy Deposition and The Effect of a Rotating Cathode Upon Such Deposition, with Special Attention to the Possibility of Depositing Sterling Silver

In the past few years a great deal of atten­tion has been given to the electrodeposition of alloys. For the main part, this investigation has been of scien­tific interest only; but in a few instances, such work has attained commercial importance.
