Abstract

The fabrication and extrusion of Chrome-30 billets—a composite of 93.5% Cr, 0.5% Ti, and 6.0% MgO—are described, and the observed extrusion variables are reported. An investigation of the resistance of Chrome-30 to atmospheric contamination is reported. Some promising modifications of Chrome-30 that are currently being evaluated are also briefly described.
