Abstract:

The reactions of various metallic carbides with W and with graphite were studied for the purpose of developing a W to graphite bond system for use at temperatures up to 5000 F. A bond composition and process was developed that yielded good bonds however, the desired reproducibility was not achieved. The bond composition developed also formed an excellent coating for graphite, having good thermal shock resistance and adherence at temperatures up to at least 5000 F. Author
