Many initiators attack steels of the AISI 4300 series and the barrels of the intensifiers, which are usually of compound constmction to resist fatigue, have an inner liner of AISI 410 or austenitic stainless steel. The associated small bore pipework and fittings used to transfer the initiator to the sparger are usually made of cold worked austenitic stainless steel. The required pumping capacity varies considerably from one process to another, but an initiator flow rate 0.5 L / min is more than sufficient to supply a single injection point in a reactor nominally rated for 40 t/d of polyethylene. 

Zirconium is a hard, shiny, ductile metal, similar to stainless steel in appearance. It can be hot-worked to form slabs, rods, and rounds from arc-melted ingot. Further cold-working of zirconium with intermediate annealings produces sheet, foil, bar wire, and tubing. Physical properties are given in Table 3. 

The body-centered-cuhic (bcc) metals and alloys are normally classified as undesirable for low temperature construction. This class includes Fe, the martensitic steels (low carbon and the 400-series stainless steels). Mo, and Nb. If not brittle at room temperature, these materials exhibit a ductile-to-brittle transition at low temperatures. Cold working of some steels, in particular, can induce the austenite-to-martensite transition. 

Spiral-plate exchangers are fabricated from any material that can be cold worked and welded. Materials commonly used include carbo steel, stainless steel, nickel and nickel alloys, titanium, Hastelloys, and copper alloys. Baked phenolic-resin coatings are sometimes applied. Electrodes can also be wound into the assembly to anodically protect surfaces against corrosion.

Niobium is always found in nature associated with tantalum and it closely resembles tantalum in its chemical and mechanical properties. It is a soft ductile metal which, like tantalum, work hardens more slowly than most metals. It will in fact absorb over 90% cold work before annealing becomes necessary, and it is easily formed at room temperature. In addition, welds of high quality can be produced in the metal. In appearance the metal is somewhat similar to stainless steel it has a density slightly higher than stainless steel and a thermal conductivity similar to 1% carbon steel.

HN03 to the bomb, place the crucible in the electrode support of the bomb, and attach the fuse wire. Assemble the bomb and add oxygen to a pressure of 24 atm (gage). Place the bomb in the calorimeter (a cold water bath in a large stainless steel beaker is also satisfactory) and ignite the sample using appropriate safety precautions ordinarily employed in bomb calorimetry work. 

Trap desorption. The choice of the thermal desorption apparatus is critical in order to avoid contamination and to be able to work with aroma compounds in a wide range of retention indices. In all systems, problems can be encountered due to reactive compounds or cold spots within the analyzer. It is recommended that all transfer lines, valves, or surfaces in contact with the volatile compounds be made of an inert material such as fused-silica or deactivated glass-lined stainless steel. Even more ideal are systems that do not have long... 

Adequate predictions of thermal conductivity for pure metals can be made by means of the Wiedemann-Franz law, which states that the ratio of the thermal conductivity to the product of the electrical conductivity and the absolute temperature is a constant. High-purity aluminum and copper exhibit peaks in thermal conductivity between 20 and 50 K, but these peaks are rapidly suppressed with increased impurity levels and cold work of the metal. The aluminum alloys Inconel, Monel, and stainless steel show a steady decrease in thermal conductivity with a decrease in temperature. This behavior makes these structural materials useful in any cryogenic service that requires low thermal conductivity over an extended temperature range. 

Caps, Corks, and Wire Hoods. Crown caps are used for closures on bottles before secondary fermentation. The caps are 26 mm in diameter (one company uses 29 mm) and are coated tinplate or stainless steel. Two companies use stainless steel to prevent corrosion and leakage during storage under moist and cold conditions, or for long aging under high pressure. The liners of the caps are ground cork with vinyl disks or elastomer plastic. Cork and plastic liners appear to work equally well. 

Sheet, thin plate, welded tubing, and small-diameter bar of commercially pure titanium are manufactured into parts by conventional cold-working techniques. The formability of titanium, when worked at room temperature, is like that of cold-rolled stainless steel. At 65°C the formability compares with stainless steel annealed at room temperature. Cold-working maybe difficult for some titanium alloys and heat may be required, especially for severe forming operations. Generally, titanium and its alloys are worked between 200 and 300°C. Lubricants reduce friction and galling. Slow forming speeds at controlled rates improve workability and are recommended for more difficult operations.
