250,000,000 pounds per year. This new shaft is the thirteenth operating shaft in Inco's underground mines in the Sudbury district. Waldron ('270) discussed the current nickel mining operations of Sherritt-Gordon Mines, Ltd., a t Lynn Lake, including the refining process and plant capacities. F r a s e r (84) i n a n A M E R I C A N CHEMICAL SOCIETYsymposium discussed developments in nickel, which included the discovery of nickel, its technology and utilization, and the history of the metallurgy by which it has been won from its ores, as well as various properties of nickel. Mackay (171) gave a historical review of the discovery of nickel and the growth of the nickel industry. Haidegger (111) discussed in considerable detail the electrolytic production of nickel. Scarlott (228) told the story of the history, deposits, methods of refining, and use of nickel and cobalt and their alloys. Huttl ( 1 % ) described the progress made in utilizing Idaho cobalt for U. S. defense, and stated that before long the company will be producing well over 3,000,000 pounds of cobalt metal annually plus a substantial tonnage of copper. He also described the processing technique. A review (190) of cobalt production during 1951 is presented. Downie (69) described the production and handling of nickel matte in blast furnaces and converters. Downie (70) presented some notes on properties, treatment, and utilization of nickel slags, which are also compared with cobalt slags.

Although nickel is still in relatively short supply and under governmental control, some progress has been made in enlarging the amount available for use in the Western World. The critical supply of nickel indicates it is still desirablefor the chemical and process industries and other users of nickel to utilize such information as is available to further the conservation of nickel. This can be done most effectively by carefully considering the various properties of nickel and its alloys. During the past year much work has been done on development of new alloys, improvements in present ones, and studies of their physical properties, on the fabrication and working of these alloys, and on their application particularly in the chemical and process industries.

T

H E current annual review of published references relating to nickel and nickel alloys is similar to the previous one (163). Alloys containing about 40% or more of nickel or appreciable quantities of cobalt comprise the materials considered for this annual review. The subject matter is divided into three general classifications: development of new alloys or improvements in present ones and studies of their physical properties; developments in the fabrication and working of these alloys; and developments in the applications of these alloys with particular reference to the chemical and process industries. While nickel is still in relatively short supply and under governmental control, some progress has been made in enlarging the amount of nickel available for use in the Western World. A number of artieles were written describing recent advancements. In view of the current importance of cobalt, some references are included with respect to this metal. In acknowledgment of the 200th anniversary year of the discovery of nickel, the AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY (133) presented a Symposium on Developments in Nickel. Those papers which are appropriate for this review are abstracted separately. In a review of the nickel industry presented by the Canadian Bureau of Statistics (188) it was reported that during 1950 The International Nickel Co. increased its sales from 104,646 to 128,205 short tons and spent $13,500,000 on underground development. Included in the review are other nickel-producing companies such as Falconbridge, Sherritt-Gordon, Nicaro, and The Nickel Corp. of Africa. An article (143)described the world situation of nickel during the year 1950; total nickel production was 160,000 tons, of which 123,000 tons came from the Sudbury district. Discussions of other sources of nickel and production rates are also presented. Beall (14)discussed the sources of nickel and reserves as of 1950 and the possibility of exploiting low-grade nickel deposits throughout the world. In the 1951 annual review of nickel production (189) it is mentioned that the free world's output has been increased by more than 10% to approximately 147,500 short tons, over 90% of which is produced in Canada. When Inco's long-term program of underground mine development is completed in 1953 it will result in the largest nonferrous base metal underground mine undertaking in the world. Falconbridge, Canada's second largest nickel producer, has embarked on an expansion program which is designed to raise production to 20,000 short tons annually. The story of Inco's new shaft and concentrator a t its Creighton mine is presented (187)and i t is indicated that these new facilities will enable the company t o maintain production of refined nickel a t the present rate of about

COMPOSITIONS OF ALLOYS

During the year there were a few discussions in the literature on the compositions of alloys with respect to studies of phase diagrams. Guseva and Makarov (110) studied the structure of nickelaluminum alloys a t high temperatures, and indicated that, with increasing temperature, the region of the solubility of nickel in aluminum increased. In the region of 60 and 66 atomic %, alloys heated up to 1340" C. (2444 O F.) are uniphase and possess a tetragonal structure. Guseva (109)studied the beta-phase of the nickel-aluminum system (45 to 60% nickel). Bradley (95)described microscopical studies on the iron-nickel-aluminum system and the breakdown of the body-centered cubic lattice. Coles and Hume-Rothery (48)determined the equilibrium diagram for nickel-manganese abobe 800" C. (1472" F.) by thermal, microscopical, and x-ray methods. Averbach (10) outlined an experimental procedure resulting in data on magnetic and electrical resistivity, indicating the possibility that an ordered structure can be produced in the alloy NiaMn. Sate ( 2 3 ) studied the order-disorder transformation of the alloy NiaMn. Fukuroi and Shibuya (95) measured Young's modulus of nickel-copper alloys (1 to 100% nickel, 99 to 0% copper) by an interferometric method and found agreement with Yamamoto's dynamic method. Cooper and Bassett (62) described several methods for the preparation of nickel-chromium alloy specimens for electron microscope examination. Silica replicas from specimens etched

(68" to 212" F.) Monnot (196) presented a progrebs ieport on t h r spectrographic analysis of steel and 80 nickel-20 chromiuni alloj- Spark spectra of two metallic electrodes were registered on a quartz spectrograph of medium dispersion and the author states the lines used, the index values, the dope of thc calibration line, and the reprodwibility for each line pair.

During the year a number of studies were reported in the literature on miscellaneous properties of nickel and its alloys. Yamaguchi ( 2 8 8 ) made electron microscopy and diffraction studies on the eight rtched planes of nickel single crystals. The (110) face is cheniicallv and most active and the (111) facc is thc most inert. Neighbours, Bratten, a i d Smith (196) determined elastic constants of nickel by the pulsed ultrasonic method, and gave the experimental procedure, calculation of elastic constants, results, and discussions. The wave velocity mcasurements were made on four nickel single crystals of general orientation which were magnetically saturated.

amount and rate of adsorption of hgdiogen on pure nickel and silver sheets between 200" C. (410' F.) and 500" C. (932' F.). The adsorption on nickel corresponds to the formation of a unimolecular layer, but a discontinuity appears a t the region of thc Curie transition. Turner (263) discussed the elcctrochemical polarization effects a t nickel anodes in 2 N sulfuric acid, with diagrams and oscillograms. Benedicks and Harden (17) described the results of research work carried out under wetting effect and liquostriction, as well as a theory relating to the wetting effect to surface tensions. The test equipment used was also described. The metals and various alloys used in these tests included Invar, platinum. iron, nickel, carbon steel, and copper. Petersoil and Johnson (606) investigated the friction and surface damage of several corrosion-resisting materials. The values of kinetic friction coefficient a t low sliding velocities and photomicrographs of surface damage were obtained. Appreciable surface damage was evident for all materials tested except tungsten carbide. The friction coefficients for combinations of steel, stainless steel, and Monel sliding against steel, nickel, Inconel, and Nichrome ranged from 0.55 to 0.97. Kickel in all tests conducted had high friction coefficients approaching 1. Dartnell, Fairbanks, and Koehler (60) carried out an investigation wherein use was made of the kinetic adherence test devised by Kapnicky for testing the adherence of molten glass to heated metal samples. It was found that tungsten and nickel of the pure metal group and Monel of the nonferrous alloy group had adherence temperatures above 1000° F. (538' C.). Diagrams, graphs, tables, and photomicrographs are included. Hart and Tomlinson (116) described the use of finely divided metals in explosives and included discussion of nickel as well as magnesium and aluminum. Brosi (67) presented a detailed discussion of the various 150topes of nickel and reviewed publications reporting work in which isotopes were used in studies of the chemistry of nickel.

Description of the experiment and the results are included. Crowell and Farnsworth (56) reported somP preliminary attempts t o measure the amount of gas chemisorbed on a single face of one single crystal. By using C14 as the radioactive tracer it has been possible to determine the amount of carbon dioxide chemisorbed on metal surfaces with areas of 1 to 2 sq. em. Copper, nickel, and silver were used in these experiments Simnad and Ruder (255)studied the mechanism of cxchange between metals and ions in solution with radioactive cobalt in which spccimens of cobalt, nickel, iron, 18-8 stainless steel, titanium, platinum, and copper mere immersed in the presence and absence of oxygen. Parker (206) discussed radioactive isotopes in ferrous metallurgy, considering five types of iron atoms. It is mentioned that iron 59 emits beta and K radiations and decays to nickel 60, a stable isotope of nickel. Radioisotopes were used t o identify minute quantities of copper, chromium, nickel, molybdenum, tin, and vanadium in steel and to study the physical chemistry of steelmaking. I n a symposium on properties of metals used a t low temperatures, those of nickel, copper, and copper-nickel alloys were given by Geil and Carwile ( 9 7 ) . Zimmerman (203) made thermal and electrical conductivity measurements on some coppernickel alloys, Monel, and stainless steels in the range of 2.6' to 8.0' K. Results suggested appreciable lattice contribution t o thermal conductivity, a t least for annealed specimens. deNobel ( 6 4 ) investigated heat conductivities at temperatures of liquid hydrogen and liquid air, utilizing two methods.

As in previous years, the ferromagnetic property of nickel provided the basis for a number of studies of nickel and its alloys. Williams and Walker (888) studied the domain patterns on two single crystals of nickel cut in the form of hollow parallelograms. T h e crystals showed domain structures with the three types of domain boundary which are t o be expected from a material having the directions of easy magnetization along the (111) direction. Bozorth, Mason, and McSkimin (84) described the determination of three elastic constants and monocrystalline nickel, using pulses of elastic waves 10 megacycles per second for 0.001 second. The difference in the magnitude of Young's modulus was attributed t o microeddy-current damping, which gave rise a t high frequencies to relaxation of the motion of the walls of the magnetic domain. The change in the magnetization of a domain gives rise t o eddy current in and around it, resulting in a loss of energy which depends, among other factors, on frequency and the shape and size of the domain. Peppiatt and Brockhouse (206) studied the applied stress and the initial susceptibility to magnetization in the direction of stress of annealed nickel wire. For temperatures below 20" C. (68' F.) and above 150' C. (302' F.) the temperature dependence varies, and the measured values cannot be predicted theoretically. Sueuki and Yamamoto (246)studied the unique character of anelasticity in ferromagnetic materials and found that it lies in the magneto-mechanical coupling. Observations were made on electrolytic nickel wire subject to torsion in a longitudinal magnetic field at temperatures up to 392' C. (740' F.). Johnson and Rogers (144) discussed measurements of magnetically induced velocity changes in polycrystalline nickel rods. Shear and compressional ultrasonic propagation modes were used throughout the frequency range from 1 to 10 megacycles. Tebble (250)gave a n account of investigations on temperature dependence of contribution from reversible processes t o magnetization of annealed and strained nickel wires. Griffiths'(106) reported experiments on ferromagnetic resonance in thin films of nickel. Results obtained were interpreted using Kittel's equation. -4new oscillation-type magnetometer is described and results obtained with it are given. Kikuchi and Shimizu (160) considered the technical treatment of the hysteresis of magnetostriction vibration and determined theoretical results on magnetic hysteresis loss and elastic hysteresis loss. The symmetrical and unsymmetrical magnetic hysteresis losses of nickel under various tensions were measured. Equations and graphs are included. Kikuchi and Fukushima (149) carried out some theoretical investigations on the performance of the laminated magnetostriction vibrators for emitting supersonic waves in water and other liquids. Various materials available for vibrators include nickel, Hipernick, Permalloy, and electrolytic iron. Graphs, tables, and equations are included. Mason (180)made a phenomenological investigation of stress, strain, and magnetic relations for single nickel crystals. The variation in elastic constants is shown t o be a morphic effect caused by the change in crystal symmetry due to the magnetostriction effect. Alizade ( 3 ) described the technique for the preparation of ironpalladium and nickel-palladium alloys. Heat treatment and measurement of magnetostriction for 60 i r o n 4 0 palladium and 62.25 nickel-37.75 palladium alloys are discussed. Wohlfarth (186)carried out some calculations for a n energy band for which the energy density of states is constant. These have a bearing on the actual rectangular, energy band for nickel. Experimental results are discussed for the magnetic properties of nickel, nickelcopper alloys and nickel-cobalt alloys, and the thermal properties of nickel, including the energy, specific heat, and magnetocaloric effect. Buinov and Kliushin (35) investigated the submicroscopic structure of Magnico alloy containing 50% iron, 24% cobalt, 14y0 nickel, 9% aluminum, and 3% copper. Replicas for the

electron microscopy were made by the oxidation method and by a single-step quartz method. Hoselitz and McCaig (128) uszd a torque magnetometer to determine the crystal anisotropy constants of Alcomax 111. Changes in the crystal anisotropy are compared with parallel measurements on hysteresis curve. Heindenreich and Nesbitt (120) discussed the physical structure and magnetic anisotropy of Alnico 5 (14% copper, 8% aluminum, 24% cobalt, 3% copper, 51% iron), including the experimental procedure, crystal structure of the permanent magnet precipitate, effect of a magnetic field during heat treatment, and changes in magnetic properties with different treatments which account for the coercive force on the basis of magnetic anisotropy. Williams and Goertz (2881) investigated the magnetic domain structure of Perminvar (43% nickel, 34% iron, 23% cobalt) ring specimens having a rectangular hysteresis loop after heat treatment in a magnetic field and the manner in which the domain structure changes with a n applied field. Other materials discussed are the iron-nickel alloys with 50 t o 85% nickel. Chevenard ( 4 1 ) discussed the magnetic transformations and physicothermic anomalies of ferronickel alloys, such as Permalloy, Mumetal, and Supermalloy, and other precision alloys such aB permanent magnetic alloys. Hirone and Ogawa (181) found a discontinuous expansion of the magnetic reversal nucleus occurred in a uniformly magnetized ferromagnetic substance as Perminvar (30% iron, 45% nickel, 25% cobalt) due t o varying tension. Hirone, Ogawa, and Huzimura (182) measured the changes in reversible permeability at the remanence point, the residual magnetization, and the energy of magnetization from the remanence point to magnetic saturation of Perminvar (30% iron, 45y0 nickel, 25% cobalt). The results were at variance with t h e theoretical ones, owing t o the unpredictability of the internal stresses. Libsch and Both (161)made a study of magnetic alloys which have a nearly rectangular hysteresis loop-namely, those containing 30 to 5070 cobalt and the balance iron. The cobaltiron alloys, especially the 50% cobalt-500jo iron alloy, respond to a magnetic annealing treatment by a marked change in the shape of their hysteresis loop. A discussion of the results and applications is given. DeBarr (62) discussed the domain theory of ferromagnetism, grain oriented materials, magnetic annealing, permanent magnets,

high permeability, and ferrite-magnetic materials. Ferro and Montalenti (79) experimentally verified the hypothesis that in oyclically stressed ferromagnetic materials, energy loss because of magnetoelastic internal friction is induced by a domain motion due to the applied stress itself. The ratio IT/18was chosen as a n index of the domain position. Nickel and a 0.38 carbon-2.2 nickel-0.6 chromium steel were compared and it was found t h a t they, besides having the same shape, show abrupt slope variations a t practically the identical value of stress. Graphs of the results are presented. Chevenard and Josso ( 4 2 ) discussed the effect of addition of copper or molybdenum on critical temperatures or order-disorder transformation in ferro-nickels. Koster and Raffelsieper (158) gave the basis of a magnetic method for studying the course of diffusion in the sintering of a 89% nickel11% copper alloy. Koster and Raffelsieper (165) used a magnetic method to follow the course of diffusion during the sintering of a 91% nickel-9% zinc alloy. The activation energy of sintering was 28,000 cal. per mole. HIGH TEMPERATURE PROPERTIES

During the course of the year, a large number of studies had t o do with the high temperature properties of nickel- and cobaltcontaining alloys. The studies were concerned mainly with fatigue, creep, and stress rupture properties of alloys applicable to jet engines and gas turbines. Wagner (269) discussed experimental methods for kinetic investigations, the determination of the structure of oxide layers, and the rate laws for the ovidation of metals. A considerable investigation was carried out with a number of metals and alloys, including platinum-nickel and nickel-copper. The rate of oxidation for alloys was found to be directly correlated with the ionic conductivity of the oxide phases of both metals. The migration mechanism of oxides of nickel, iron, copper, chromium, and cobalt are explained; 89 references are given. Tichenor (861) found that the oxidation rate of cobalt at 500' to 800' C. (932' to 1472' F.) in oxygen is 25 times greater than t h a t of nickel, although the activation energy is the same for both reactions. Erthal (73) investigated the mechanical properties, impact and hardness values, and fatigue characteristics of Inconel X, SBE 4340 steel, and stainless TV at room temperature to 700' F. (371" C.) and 900' F. (482' C.) for varying periods of time up t o 1000 hours. Stress rupture, creep, and endurance characteristics of SAE 4340 and stainless W at 700' F. (371' C.) and Inconel X at 900' F. (482' C.) were also studied. Tables and graphs of mechanical properties and photomicrographs are given. Grant (101) discussed stress rupture testing and determined the extent and rate of metallurgical and chemical change in the composition of 8-590 (20y0 chromium, 2070 nickel, 20% cobalt, 4% tungsten, 470 columbium, balance iron) over extensive timetemperature intervals. The stress-rupture curve for Monel is affected by oxidation and recrystallization and grain growth. I n stainless steels, carbide precipitation and sigma formation affect the curve. Tapsell (848) emphasized the need for fatigue investigations of metals a t high temperature and presented experimental fatigue and creep data for Nimonic 80 and GlSB a n d G32. A method of correlating these data in working stress diagrams is shown. Welch and Cametti (275)conducted a series of hysteresis and room temperature creep tests on several high strength shafting materials, such as K Monel and Inconel X. Both these alloys proved t o have exceptionally low hysteresis and creep for shearing stresses up to 24,000 pounds per square inch. Both hysteresis and creep values were only O.Ol'% for reversed loading. Parker (903) discussed plastic flow and modern theories of slip and gave creep data for a number of alloys including complex nickel-chromium alloys. Molybdenum and tungsten are the most effective alloying elements in conferring creep resistance t o steels. Ceramic-metal sintered mixtures are being investigated.

Vol. 44, No. 10

These, however, are relatively brittle at room temperature and there is, as yet, no satisfactory way t o join them to metals. Graham (100) discussed the phenomenological theories of creep and reported collected values of constants for Nimonic 80, G18B, Stellite 8, and others. The study utilized a formula with four adjustable constants relating permanent strain t o stress, time, and temperature and was shown to represent successfully the decelerating stage of uniaxial creep in several dissimilar metals. Mohling (191) reported the undertaking of a project t o develop both a forging and cast turbine bucket alloy which has properties equal to those alloys in present usage but with a substantially reduced content of critical materials. The goal set for a forging bucket alloy was a maximum of 20% cobalt, 6% tungsten, and 2% columbium. A total of 63 alloy combinations were made and tested, most of which contained nickel. No alloys were found with properties equal t o S-816 within these limits. However, a n alloy was developed with 34% cobalt, 6% tungsten, 2 % columbium, and 20% nickel which is it3 equal. This represents a saving of 10% cobalt and 270 columbium. The cast bucket alloy goal was set at 30% cobalt and 6 % tungsten; 91 alloy compositions mere tested, most of which contained nickel. An alloy containing 30% cobalt, 8% tungsten, and 20% nickel was developed which closely approximates the physical properties of Vitallium. This represents a saving of 35% cobalt with the use of 2% tungsten more than F a s set in the original goal. Boss (20) presented the tensile test, stress-rupture, and creep data of important jet engine alloys in tabular form. Alloys include s-816, cast Haynes Stellite No. 21, K-42-B, Timken 16-25-6, Discaloy, 19-9 DL, N-155, Haynes 25, Inconel X, Nimonic 80, Hastelloy B, and Type 347 stainless steel. Fletcher et al. ( 8 0 ) madecreeprupture testsat 780" C. (1436'F.), 915'C. (1679' F.), a n d 1000" C. (1832" F.) on cobaltrchromium alloys containing nitrogen. Curves showing stress us. minimum creep rate and stress for a creep rate of O . O O O l ~ o per hour vs. temperature are included in the report. Other alloys are considered, and photomicrographs, tables, and graphs are included. Colombier (49) presented rupture data for Nimonic SO and several cobalt-base alloys and discussed the effects of structural hardening, cold hardening, and rolling on creep strength. Daniels and Larke (59) developed creep data for Inconel X at 815' C. (1500" F.). Yearian ($90) presented a record of conference on fatigue of metals a t high temperatures. Oliver and Harris (200) discussed gas turbine alloys and mentioned the comparative immunity of Jessop G-32 (1o.5yOnickel, 19.1y0 chromium, 46.6% cobalt, 2.2% molybdenum, 3.001, vanadium, 1.4y0 niobium) to attack by fuelash containing vanadium pentoxide. Many charts of the physical and mechanical properties of the various alloys discussed are given. Harris and Child (113) discussed the development of a high temperature alloy for gas turbine rotor blades. Nickelcobalt-iron-chromium alloys were investigated. It was found t h a t optimum creep strength occurred when a t least three carbide-forming elements were present, when the carbon content and the total percentage of carbide-forming elements were carefully balanced, and when the base of the alloy was rich in cobalt. Such an alloy is the proprietary Jessop G-32 (12% nickel, 45% cobalt, 19% chromium, 2.8% vanadium, 2.0% molybdenum, 1.2y0niobium). Charts are given. Allen ( 5 ) surveyed the development of creep-resisting alloys, both ferritic and austenitic, from 1914 to 1939. The trend in research after 1939 in Great Britain, America, and Germany for gas turbine materials is described. Properties of the alloys, including the nickel-chromium-cobalt alloys and stainless steels, are described. Charts are given. Bucher (33)discussed gas turbine performance and materials and mentioned t h a t nickel-base alloys and heat-resistant steels in contact with vanadium pentoxide a t 700' C. (1292' F.)cannot be expected to have a life of more than a few thousand hours. Less corrosion was found with Nimonic 80 than with other materials. Frith (94) ( a t a Symposium on High Temperature Steels and

Alloys for Gas Turbines) presented the results of tests to determine the fatigue properties of various heat-resisting materials at elevated temperatures. The tests were carried out on hollow test pieces of Nimonic 80 rolled bar, Nimonic 80 remelt and cast bar, improved Nimonic 80 rolled bar, G32 rolled bar and remelt, and cast G32 bar, with reversed bending stresses and with these stresses imposed on a static tension test. Some tests on turbine blades were also carried out. Pfeil, Allen, and Conway (108) presented a review of nickel-chromium-titanium alloys of the Nimonic 80 type. Properties and characteristics are given as well as a discussion of the application of the alloys for high temperature uses. Buswell, Pitkin, and Jenkins (37) discussed sintered alloys for gas turbine application. A cobalt-base alloy of the Vitallium type containing 30% chromium and 6 % tungsten was prepared by powder metallurgy and its properties were compared with those of the cast alloy. Of the various properties, creep above 600" C. (1112' F.) compared poorly with that of the cast alloy. The low strength in creep may be associated with the absence of the intergranular carbide network found in the cast alloy. Photomicrographs are shown. Reynolds, Freeman, and White (216) investigated the influence of chemical composition of forged modified low-carbon N155 alloys in solution treated and aged conditions as related to the rupture properties a t 1200' F. (650' C.). They found that it was possible to correlate stress rupture properties of the forged alloys a t 1200" F. (650' C.) with systematic variations in chemical composition and that a wide range in properties can be obtained by such variations. Freeman, Reynolds, and White (85) substituted an experimental cobalt-tantalum-iron alloy for ironcobalt in making laboratory heats of low carbon N-155 alloy. This substitution had no significant effect upon stress rupture and creep properties of either alloy a t 1200" F. (650" C.) and 1500" F. (815' C.). MacGregor and Walcott (169) reported the results of an investigation of torsion creep-to-rupture properties of the N-155 alloy. The results are described (196)of a cooperative investigation of the relationship between static and fatigue properties of heat-resistant alloys a t elevated temperatures. Results are given for N-155 alloy bar stock and are summarized as curves. Chaston and Child ( 4 0 ) discussed cobalt-rich alloys for high temperature service. The system tantalum-chromiumcobalt was studied a t 900' C. (1652' F.) with attention paid to the influence of carbon.
