Compatibility of Pentaborane With Materials Used for Seals, Gaskets, and Construction (open access)

Compatibility of Pentaborane With Materials Used for Seals, Gaskets, and Construction

Memorandum presenting the compatibility of pentaborane with aluminum foil, 24S-T and 17S-T aluminum, and 50-50 tin-lead solder in the range of -30 to -50 degrees F for 7 hours, at 90 degrees F for 6.5 hours, and at 70 degrees F for 28 days. Results were evaluated by determination of the loss in weight after the test period, metallographic inspection, and comparison with blanks carried through test conditions without exposure to the liquid. The evaluation of results was made by visual inspection and physical tests of dimensional stability, tensile strength, elasticity, and gain or loss of weight.

High-Temperature Lubricants and Bearings for Aircraft Turbine Engine (open access)

High-Temperature Lubricants and Bearings for Aircraft Turbine Engine

Memorandum presenting a consideration of the problems, research status, and future possibilities for high-temperature lubricants and bearings for aircraft turbine engines. The greater heat loads imposed by high-performance engines and practical limitation on cooling will result in increased operating temperatures for bearings and lubricants.
