THE ZONE MELTING OF REFRACTORY METALS INCLUDING RHENIUM AND TUNGSTEN

Journal Article · · J. Less-Common Metals
Zone melting as a method of preparation for refractory metals is discussed. In purification of reactive refractory metals arc melttng on a water- cooled hearth or electron bombardment floating zone methods are best. The arc zone melting furnace is dascribed along with the electron bombardment floating zone furnace. Techniques of operation are described, and the single crystal growth examined. (J.R.D.)
