TY - JOUR AU1 - Iwase, M. AU2 - Mclean, A. AB - kept at 1000 K for 30 seconds, complete dissolution of the nickel in the bismuth was observed. The resulting alloy ingot was very brittle and readily crushed. The alloys were M. IWASE and A. McLEAN then remelted at 1000 K for 10 seconds. This procedure was repeated several times. Weight loss of the samples during alloy preparation was negligible. In some cases, the alloys For many years lead has been used in steelmaking pro- were prepared by melting in situ both the pure metals in the cesses for the production of free-machining steel. With in- creasing attention being devoted to the areas of air pollution, zirconia crucible. The inner electrode compartment consisted of the zirconia environmental control, and health considerations, there is crucible, 2 grams of NiO, 10 grams of the (Ni + Bi) alloy, strong incentive to develop free-machining steel with alloy and a 2 mm diameter molybdenum lead wire.
