Filters most corrosive element k n o w n ...with porous sintered Monel This filter reclaims solid particles from a gaseous stream containing fluorine — the world's most reactive element. It's made of porous sintered Monel* nickel-copper alloy, stands up in fluorine service much longer than filters of other materials. Housing and cover are Monel, too. Porous metal filters of Monel and other Inco Nickel Alloys are proving invaluable wherever corrosion, cyclic shock, heat or radioactivity must be reckoned with. They're made with pore sizes from 50 down to 0.2 mi crons, ± 10%.
For high -temperature filtering . . .
particula-rly above 1000° F , porous sintered Iuconel*" nickel-chromium alloy is used . . . for filtering such materials as molten sodium and potassium and removing" catalyst particles from gaseous products of catalytic cracking- units. For low—temperature filtering . . . handling- liquid helium, liquid oxy gen. Heire, porous Monel alloy and Nickel stand lip where glass or cellu lose fiber-s break up . . . retain useful properties even below minus 450°F.
In many areas of the expanding nuclear industry, Inco Nickel Alloys provide useful combinations of cor rosion resistance, strength a t both low and high temperatures, good thermal and electrical properties. Our new booklet *'Handling Fluorine and Fluorine Compounds with Inco Nickel Alloys" shows many industry-proven applications. Yours for the asking from Inco. " Ki-yistered truilcmuik
