Invar and Elinvar Characteristics in Nonferromagnetic Cr-Co Dilute Binary Alloys* Invar and Elinvar Characteristics in Nonferromagnetic Cr-Co Dilute Binary Alloys* By Kazuaki Fukamichi,** Norio Fukuda*** and Hideo Saito** Invar and Elinvar type alloys are important materials for precision instruments. Practical applications of these alloys are, however, often restricted to within narrow limits because of their ferromagnetism. Therefore, researches to develop nonferromagnetic Invar and Elinvar type alloys have recently received considerable attention. Chromium is an antiferromagnetic metal and its physical properties in the neighborhood of the Neel temperature are drastically affected by addition of solute atoms. The present authors have investigated the thermal expansivity Δl/l, the relative change in the electrical resistivity Δρ/ρ and the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility X for Cr-Co dilute alloys. The thermal expansivity of these alloys in the vicinity of room temperature is very small, showing the Invar characteristic. Some alloys show also the Elinvar characteristic in the same temperature range where the Invar characteristic occurs. Both Invar and Elinvar characteristics have for the first time been found in chromium dilute binary alloys. The magnetic susceptibility of these alloys is less than 5×10-6emu/g, indicating that they are practically nonferromagnetic. The Neel temperature of the Cr-Co dilute alloys varies irregularly with increasing cobalt con- centration;itdecreases slightlywith cobalt concentration up to 2.0%Co, increasesup to 2.5%Co, and decreases with further increase in cobalt concentration. But the Neel temperature determined from the temperature dependence of Δ ρ/ρ and X does not coincide with an inflection point on the thermal expansion curve.

Magnetic phase diagrams of Cr-V(13), Cr-Fe(14) and Cr-Mn(13) systems have been determined from the experimental results of neutron diffraction. The spin structure differs between these phase diagrams depending on the kind of additional elements and tem- perature. Thermal expansion, elastic modulus and electrical resistivity exhibit anomalies along with such variations of the spin structure. The present authors have studied many Cr- base alloys taking these unusual phenomena into account and have already discovered many Cr-Fe base ternary Invar type alloys in the primary solid solution range of Cr-Fe-Mn, Cr-Fe-Ru and Cr-Fe-Sn(21)~(25).

Especially, the thermal expansion coefficient α of a Cr-2.12%Co alloy is almost zero from -10°to 30℃ showing an excellent Invar characteristic.

  • Invar, Established a New Standard in the Way Precise Surveying Measurements Were Made, Both in Reliability and Accuracy
    I N VA R The Breakthrough for a Low Expansion Alloy he discovery of the low expansion alloy, Invar, established a new standard in the way precise surveying measurements were made, both in reliability and accuracy. It became the first successful attempt to produce a metal alloy exhibiting a nearly zero coefficient of thermal expansion. In 1889, James Riley of Glasgow, Scotland, brought before the Iron and Steel Institute his investigations into the making of an alloy through a series of tests which combined up to 49 percent nickel with iron. Seven years later, in 1896, Charles Edouard Guillaume, a Swiss-born metallurgist and employee with the International Bureau of Weights and Measures near Paris, began looking specifically for an alloy to be used for surveyors’ wires that would not noticeably change when exposed to temperature variations. While experimenting with nickel contents between 30 and 60 percent, Guillaume discovered the coefficient of expansion at room temperature was lowest when mixing a nickel content of 36 percent with 64 percent iron. Since his new alloy exhibited the least amount of thermal expansion, and because Guillaume considered it invariable, it quickly became known as “Invar”. In 1920, Guillaume was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for his discovery of Invar >> By Jerry Penry, PS Displayed with permission • The American Surveyor • Vol. 9 No. 10 • Copyright 2012 Cheves Media • www.Amerisurv.com The Sokkia BIS30 3-meter Invar bar code leveling staff in use during a high precision survey.

  • BSTJ 27: 3. July 1948: the Evolution of the Quartz Crystal Clock
    The Evolution of the Quartz Crystal Clock* By WARREN A. MARRISON SOME of the earliest documents in human history relate to man's interest in timekeeping. This interest arose partly because of his curiosity about the visible world around him, and partly because the art of time measure- ment became an increasingly important part of living as the need for cooper- ation between the members of expanding groups increased. There are still in existence devices believed to have been made by the Egyptians six thousand years ago for the purpose of telling time from the stars, and there is good reason to believe that they were in quite general use by the better educated people of that period. 1 Since that period there has been a continuous use and improvement of timekeeping methods and devices, following sometimes quite independent lines, but developing through a long series of new ideas and refinements into the very precise means at our disposal today. The art of timekeeping and time measurement is of very great value, both from its direct social use in permitting time tables and schedules to be made, and in its relation to other arts and the sciences in which the measurement of rate and duration assume ever increasing importance. The early history of timekeeping was concerned almost entirely with the first of these and for many centuries the chief purpose of timekeeping devices was to provide means for the approximate subdivision of the day, particularly of the day- light hours. The most obvious events marking the passage of time were the rising and setting of the sun and its continuous apparent motion from east to west through the sky.

  • Charles-É. Guillaume
    C HARLES - É . G UILLAUME Invar and elinvar Nobel Lecture, December 11, 1920 The anomaly of nickel steels Discovery of the anomaly - In 1889 the General Conference on Weights and Measures met at Sèvres, the seat of the International Bureau. It performed the first great deed dictated by the motto inscribed in the pediment of the splendid edifice that is the metric system : "A tous les temps, a tous les peuples" (For all times, to all peoples); and this deed consisted in the approval and distribution, among the governments of the states supporting the Metre Con- vention, of prototype standards of hitherto unknown precision intended to propagate the metric unit throughout the whole world. These prototypes were indeed noteworthy. They were made of a plati- num-iridium alloy developed by Henri Sainte-Claire-Deville which com- bined all the qualities of hardness, permanence, and resistance to chemical agents which rendered it suitable for making into standards required to last for centuries. Yet their high price excluded them from the ordinary field of science; at that time a single metre actually cost 7,000 crowns - and how much more today! A less costly answer had to be sought since between these precious proto- types and standards affording only uncertain guarantees there was a gap which nothing could fill. I first examined this problem in 1891 and soon discovered the really ex- cellent properties of pure nickel and still today this is the metal used to make a non-oxidizable standard, unaffected by the passage of time, rigid and of average expansibility.

  • The Legacy of Charles-Édouard Guillaume Swiss Perspective
    The legacy of Charles-Édouard Guillaume Swiss perspective Philippe RICHARD Federal institute of metrology METAS Director Guillaume and Switzerland – Charles-Édouard Guillaume was born in Fleurier in Val de Travers on 15 February 1861. The city of Fleurier has two Nobel laureates! – From a watchmaking family, he focused part of his research on precision watchmaking and collaborated all his life with the watchmaking circles in his birth region. – Even after 53 years devoted to the International Bureau of Weights and Measures, Charles-Édouard Guillaume Guillaume’s family home in Fleurier remained deeply attached to Switzerland. © Fondation C.-E. Guillaume, Fleurier 2 Guillaume and Switzerland – In Switzerland, the memory of Charles-Édouard Guillaume, who became famous for his Nobel prize, is strongly associated with his work on precision horology. On the opening of one of the conferences he gave at La Chaux de Fonds, he declared: « Quand on parcourt les montagnes neuchâteloises, on est frappé par l’importance de l’horlogerie. » [When you walk in the mountains of the Neuchâtel region you are stunned by the importance of horology.] – In 1815, Charles-Frédéric Guillaume, Charles-Édouard Guillaume’s grandfather, sought refuge in England where he married a descendant of Revocation refugees who came from the Neuchâtel region. – They started a family and had three boys and established a horology activity. Charles-Édouard Guillaume’s father, who grew up in London before going back to Switzerland, became in turn a horologist. He is also highly educated and passed on to Charles-Édouard the taste for knowledge and horology. 3 Precision horology − The discovery of invar was an opportunity to return to the family tradition.
