Abstract: An apparatus and method for surface temperature control is provided. Surface temperature control is achieved by flowing coolant in and then out of a low strength porous layer attached to a structural plenum. A semi-permeable layer may be attached to the outer surface of the porous layer to prevent erosion of the porous layer and to facilitate surface film cooling.

Abstract: A method for providing a ceramic coating on a ceramic or metallic substrate and the ceramic coating composition useful therein. The coating composition comprises a putty-like material comprising a colloidal silica, a base for gelling the silica, a filler, and no more than 50 wt. % of a volatile solvent or solvents. The putty-like material is rolled onto the desired substrate and cured to form a protective ceramic coating of any desired thickness. The cured coating may be fired, if desired.

Abstract: Acicular ferromagnetic metal particles consisting essentially of iron and having coercive forces greater than 1300 oersteds when the surface areas of the particles are not greater than 45 m.sup.2 /gram are described. The particles are obtained by reducing a hydrothermally produced .alpha.-Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3 with a gaseous reducing agent at a temperature of about 300.degree. to 400.degree. C.

Abstract: Described is an improved process for producing acicular ferromagnetic metallic particles by the reduction of acicular particles of iron oxide or iron oxide hydrate with a gaseous reducing agent. More specifically, the process concerns the improvement wherein the iron oxide or iron oxide hydrate particles are treated with a specified amount of a phosphorus compound and a compound of cobalt, nickel and/or copper prior to the reduction step.

Abstract: This invention relates to poly(arylacetylene) thermosetting compositions and thermoset resins prepared therefrom. The thermosetting compositions comprise a poly(phenylene oxide) and a polyacetylenically unsaturated prepolymer of a polyacetylenically substituted aromatic compound such as diethynylbenzene. The prepolymer has a number average molecular weight of about 900 to about 12,000 and contains from about 5 to about 20% by weight of terminal acetylenic groups. A representative poly(phenylene oxide) is poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide).
