OSTI ID:4783040
Machining studies were performed on pressed and sintered, forged and resintered, and arc cast unalloyed tungsten; D-31 niobium, 90Ta-10W alloy; silica reinforced phenolic resin; solid zirconium oxide; and zirconium and aluminum oxide coatings. The investigation consisted of face milling, end milling, drilling and tapping studies on tungsten and D-31 niobium; turning, face milling, drilling and tapping on silica reinforced phenolic resin; grinding of solid and flame sprayed zirconium and aluminum oxide coatings; and turning, face milling, end milling, drilling, reaming, tapping, and grinding on the 90Ta-10W alloy.
