Summary

The cobalt ceramals were considered better than the tungsten caramals in over-all oxidation resistance and the molybdenum ceramals were inferior to both the cobalt and tungsten ceramals.
The oxidation-penetration characteristics of a number of titanium carbide base ceramals when exposed to temperatures of 1625, 1785, and 2000 degrees F were investigated. A direct-measurement metallographic method was used to determine the depth of penetration. The various ceramals were composed of titanium carbide and 5, 10, 20 and 30 percent of molybdenum, tungsten, or cobalt.
