Page 22 - Describes equipment and test procedures used by the Bureau in its studies on the explosibility of dusts. Ignition temperatures, minimum explosive concentration, electrical energy for ignition, explosion pressure, and rates of pressure rise are covered.
Page 112 - Notable exceptions occurred in 6- 1 % nitric acid where both alloys corroded appreciably faster than molybdenum. In mercuric chloride solutions the TZM alloy was susceptible to a type of crevice corrosion which was not due to differential aeration. The alloys were usually not adversely affected by contact with dissimilar metals in galvanic couple experiments, but the dissimilar metals sometimes corroded galvanically. Both alloys were resistant to synthetic sea water spray at 60°C.
