U C Ε RITF Here's a material of construction that c o p e s w i t h h i g h temperature, impact, a n d corrosion. W h a t processes, heretofore held back for lack of a proper material, will you explore first with Nucerite? For example, if corrosion at high temperatures is a problem, Pfaudler® Nucerite could b e t h e answer, since it resists corrosive vapors at tempera tures that would destroy most metals in minutes. If h i g h - t e m p e r a t u r e s t a b i l i t y is what you're looking for, consider that Nucerite can protect a base metal from oxidation at 2000° F . Impact strength? Only a minor sur face crush is what you get on Nu cerite with a point-of-impact force eighteen times greater than what's needed to shatter safety glass. Ther mal shock? Nucerite can take an in stantaneous temperature differential of 1200° F . WHAT IT IS. Nucerite is properly
classified as a family of ceramic-metal composites in which a ceramic formu lation is physically a n d chemically bonded to a structural base metal. NOT A GLASSED STEEL. After t h e ceramic component is applied a n d fired on, controlled nucleation a n d crystallization take place during heattreatment as a result of agents which act as centers of nucleation. This leads to a ceramic structure with a large number of very small crystals and results in a tough ceramicmetal composite with a unique com bination of properties. Today, Nucerite is a laboratory achievement. You are invited to make inquiries on possible applications for it a n d inves tigate field testing programs. T h e above l a b test data are detailed in Bulletin 999. Use t h e coupon, or di rect your questions to our Pfaudler Division, Dept. I E C - 1 2 0 , R o c h e s t e r 3 , N e w York.
