  2. Superalloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superalloy

    The main GCP phase is γ'. Almost all superalloys are Ni-based because of this phase. γ' is an ordered L1 2 (pronounced L-one-two), which means it has a certain atom on the face of the unit cell, and a certain atom on the corners of the unit cell. Ni-based superalloys usually present Ni on the faces and Ti or Al on the corners.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inconel

    The Joint European Torus and DIII-D tokamaks' vacuum vessels are made of Inconel. [43] Inconel 718 is commonly used for cryogenic storage tanks, downhole shafts, wellhead parts, [44] and in the aerospace industry -- where it has become a prime candidate material for constructing heat resistant turbines.

    Working at Inco's Wiggin facility at Birmingham in the United Kingdom, Leonard Bessemer Pfeil is credited with the development of Nimonic alloy 80 in 1941, and used in the Power Jets W.2B. Four years later, Nimonic alloy 80A followed, an alloy widely used in engine valves today. Progressively stronger alloys were subsequently developed: Nimonic ...

    The use of pewter was widespread across Europe, from France to Norway and Britain (where most of the ancient tin was mined) to the Near East. [21] The alloy was also used in China and the Far East, arriving in Japan around 800 AD, where it was used for making objects like ceremonial vessels, tea canisters, or chalices used in shinto shrines.

    Hiduminium or R.R. alloys (2% copper, iron, nickel): used in aircraft pistons; Hydronalium (up to 12% magnesium, 1% manganese): used in shipbuilding, resists seawater corrosion; Italma (3.5% magnesium, 0.3% manganese): formerly used to make coinage of the Italian lira; Magnalium (5-50% magnesium): used in airplane bodies, ladders, pyrotechnics ...

  8. Ferrocerium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrocerium

    Ferrocerium is used in fire lighting in conjunction with a striker, similarly to natural flint-and-steel, though ferrocerium takes on the opposite role to the traditional system; instead of a natural flint rock striking tiny iron particles from a firesteel, a striker (which may be in the form of hardened steel wheel) strikes particles of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_steel

    For cutting irregular openings or non-uniform ends on dimensional (non-plate) elements, a cutting torch is typically used. Oxy-fuel torches are the most common technology and range from simple hand-held torches to automated CNC coping machines that move the torch head around the structural element in accordance with cutting instructions ...
