the conditions of operation of the phosphate reduction furnace in which they are produced. These iron-phosphorus alloys are useful to a limited extent in the production of steels, but.
the further utilization of such alloys in substan tial proportions to produce useful articles of manufacture has not hitherto been The alloys of the present invention are composed of the following essential constituents in approximately the proportions stated: 2 to 13% phosphorus, 6 to 22% silicon, the total of the phosphorus and silicon being not more than approximately 26%, with the all iron. Alloys conforming to theabove composition may contain up to 35% of a metal selected from the group consisting of aluminum, chromium, copper, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, titanium, and vanadium substituted for part of such iron.
A preferred narrower range of the essential constituents is asfollows: to 10% phosphorus, 10 to silicon, with the balance substantially all iron, or up to 25% of a metal selected from the foregoing group substitutedfor a part of the iron.
The alloys of the present invention are suitable for casting to form articles of manufacture which are particularlycorrosion resistant and, therefore, suitable for, producing articles suchas acid pumps, acid conduits, and the like. The alloys so produced have' been found particularly resistant to attack in contact with 80% orthophosphoric acid at 240 F., 90% orthophosphoric acid of March 3, 1883. as
at 280 F., boiling hydroc loric acid, and boiling 30% sulfuric acid.
Ferrophosphorus produced under a wide range, plant scale, phosphate reduction furnace operation has been found to have the following approximate compositions:

Castings were removed quickly from the mold Alloy No. Com sition Impact tests on specimens of alloys Nos. 42, 42A, 45, 47 and the last alloy in the immediately preceding table in a Charpy impact machine showed foot pounds absorbed 5, 2, 1, 2.4 and 3.6, respectively, using x 10 x 510 mm. specimens, with a notch 1 mm. deep and 1.5 mm. radius.
5. An alloy comprising the following elements in approximately the proportions given (a) 2 to 13% phosphorus,
Hardness tests on alloys Nos. 42, 42A, 45, 47 and 47A by a Shore scleriscope gave an average Shore hardness number of 91, 96, '72, 96 and 94,
respectively. These latter results may be compared with those values for properly hardened tool steel, 91 Shore, and Stellite, 85 Shore. These specimens were too brittle for Rockwell tests.
