Extrusion by Hydrostatic Pressure (Final Report to the United States Atomic Energy Commission for the Period July 1, 1960 through June 30, 1961)
- Nuclear Metals, Inc., Concord, MA (United States)
Experimental extrusions were made from a container in which the billets were surrounded by a fluid under hydrostatic pressure. Copper, aluminum, mild steel, yttrium, and beryllium billets were extruded at room temperature at various reductions. Attempts to extrude at 900°F from a container filled with liquid lead were unsuccessful because of the failure of the containers at pressures greater than 100,000 psi. The pressures required for extrusion of copper and aluminum were approximately the same as were required for extrusion by conventional means.
