March 1967 Brief 67-10062 O AEC-NASA TECH BRIEF YES AEC-NASA Tech Briefs describe innovations resulting from the research and development program of the U.S. AEC or from AEC-NASA interagency efforts. They are issued to encourage commercial application. Tech Briefs are published by NASA and may be purchased, at 15 cents each, from the Clearinghouse for Federal Scientific and Technical Information, Springfield, Virginia 22151.

An effort was made to fill in manufacture products, components, processes, and these gaps wherever feasible through theoretical or systems which involve extreme temperature environ- semiempirical considerations. Some of the data were ments such as cryogenic and high temperatures to and also extrapolated whenever it was believed justifiable beyond the melting range require the knowledge of the within the limits of tolerances set for most engineering thermophysical properties of the basic alloys, their applications. constituents and oxides that would be utilized.
