Abstract: A copper-nickel-silicon quench substrate rapidly solidifies molten alloy into microcrystalline or amorphous strip. The substrate is composed of a thermally conducting alloy. It has a two-phase microstructure with copper rich regions surrounded by a discontinuous network of nickel silicide phases. The microstructure is substantially homogeneous. Casting of strip is accomplished with minimal surface degradation as a function of casting time. The quantity of material cast during each run is improved without the toxicity encountered with copper-beryllium substrates.

Abstract: High strength polyester multifilament yarn of improved dimensional stability, which has the proper combination of an intrinsic viscosity of at least 0.90, relatively low work loss and a high degree of toughness, is incorporated as tire cord into a rubber tire for reinforcement to provide an important improvement in fatigue life and retained fatigue strength. The continuous melt-spin process comprises the steps of feeding prepolymer to a first finisher vessel to achieve at least 0.4 intrinsic viscosity transferring polymer to a second finisher vessel for a period sufficient to achieve an intrinsic viscosity of at least 0.95, and supplying this polymer to an extrusion spinnerette.
