Abstract: An impregnated compound metal is provided comprising a metal matrix comprising a metallic main constituent having a melting point above 1400.degree. C and a metallic embrittlement additive impregnated with an impregnating metal or metal alloy, brittle intermetallic phases or mixed crystals forming between the main constituent and the embrittlement additive at sintering temperatures above 1200.degree. C. The percentage of embrittlement additive relative to the main constituent is 0.5 to 10 percent by weight. The melting points of all constituents are above 2000.degree. C.
Abstract: A semiconductor ceramic composition consists essentially of 83.95 to 98.65 mol% of barium titanate, 0.13 to 0.45 mol% of manganese oxide, 0.20 to 15 mol% of silicon dioxide and 0.23 to 1.65 mol% of one or more oxides selected from the group consisting of oxides of rare earth elements, bismuth and antimony, the content of one or more oxides of said group being 0.10 to 1.20 mol% greater than that of manganese oxide. The semiconductor ceramic composition has a markedly high positive resistance temperature characteristic.
Abstract: Composite materials having properties of superconductivity which remain at much higher temperatures than conventional superconductors and intended for such applications as the construction of magnetometers or thermometers are provided in a divided form and in a monocrystalline matrix consisting of semiconducting material with zones of superconductivity formed by microprecipitates of one of the constituents of the semiconducting material.
Abstract: A well completion and packer fluid additive consisting essentially of carboxymethyl cellulose crosslinked with an inorganic chromium compound. The fluids prepared with this procedure have temperature stability to 250.degree. F., excellent resistance to contamination, stability in electrolyte solutions such as KCl and CaCl.sub.2 and upon acidizing the fluid retains less the 3% residue.
