Through hardening

Tool steels Hsted ki Table 13 are commonly used for temperatures above 175°C where hot hardness is requked. M50 tool steel has been widely used, for kistance, for the severe conditions encountered ki akcraft jet engine beatings (42). Figure 2 shows the superior hot hardness of M50 as compared with traditional through-hardened 52100 and case-hardened 4620 steels (39). 

Nitriding permits increased tooth loading. The amount of increased capacity is not exactly known, but a 20% increase in load at 10,000-12,000 rpm has proven reliable. A further advantage of the nitrided coupling is that the coefficient of friction is lower than that for through-hardened parts. The heat from friction in the coupling decreases. More important, the transmission of axial forces is decreased by the reduced friction. 

Grinding Abrasion. The suitable alloys range from austenitic manganese steel (which once dominated the field) through hardenable carbon and medium alloy steels to the abrasion-resistant cast irons. 

The hardness test sometimes is performed on the mud as well as the mud filtrate. The mud hardness indicates the amount of calcium suspended in the mud as well as the calcium in solution. This test usually is made on gypsum-treated muds to indicate the amount of excess CaSO present in suspension. To perform the hardness test on mud, a small sample of mud is first diluted to 50 times its original volume with distilled water so that any undissolved calcium or magnesium compounds can go into solution. The mixture then is filtered through hardened filter paper to obtain a clear filtrate. The total hardness of this filtrate then is obtained using the same procedure used for the filtrate from the low-temperature low-pressure API filter press apparatus.

The mixture is filtered hot by suction through hardened paper and any purple-black product remaining in the reaction flask is transferred to the suction funnel with hot water. After washing with about 200ml more of hot water, the solid is drained well and dried at 10O°C. The product is then used further as indicated in (I). 

The two basic types are (1) through hardenable, and (2) surface harden-able. Subcategones of surface hardenable alloys include carburizing alloys, flame and induction-hardening alloys, and nitriding alloys. 

Metal powder-coated, through-hardened materials - these materials have been found useful when an alloy does not provide adequate forged quality and for cast materials with specific casting problems. Very fine and very even carbide distribution throughout the entire component offers economically viable (in production terms) and effective wear resistance (temperable matrix with high carbide content). Preferred materials include vanadium-alloyed tool steels. 

Through-hardened design especially for housing with several feed ports, e.g., made of wear-resistant tool steel or wear- and corrosion-resistant chrome steel. This design is often constrained by the size of the component because heat treatment can cause stress cracks in cross sections with thick walls.

The following method of preparation of the acid is said to give a 20 to 30 per cent, yield in a fairly pure state 56-4 c.c. of commercial arsenic acid (density 1-88) are added to 1500 c.e. of aniline in a 2000 c.e. flask placed in an oihbath. The mixture is aerated when the temperature reaches 100° C., and the bath maintained at 230° C. until about 1200 C.C. of aniline have distilled over. The mass is then cooled and 200 c.c. of 8N sodium hydroxide added, the whole well shaken, allowed to settle, and the aqueous layer drawn off. The extraction is repeated using a further 100 c.c. of alkali and the combined extract shaken with 5 to 10 grams of infusorial earth, then filtered through hardened filter-paper. The acid is precipitated as a gummy mass by acidification...
