Description

Ill., assignors' to Helmer-Staley, Inc., Chicago, 111., a corporation of Illinois No Drawing.
Application Marci. is, 1939, Serial No. zsznoe Claims'. (01.106-19) invention relates to solid implements for marking hot surfaces or surfaces tobe heated. and more specifically relatesto solid marking sticks or pencils composed of a pigment, a vehicle,
I v and a heat-resisting setting agent.
The markingof hot surfaces, or surfaces to.
'7 be heated such as metal sheets, billets,.castings,
. forgings and the like with identifying data is a I troublesome problem in many industries.- Fbr erample, batches of metal. sheets, billets, castlugs, and the like have a known analysis or designation at the time they are made. Data concerning such analysis or designation, such as a code, color or the like. must be marked on the -metal before it has cooled down. Some of the marked metal may then be mixedwith metal from other batches and stored for future use.
Other metal objects from the-same batch may be immediately used or further processed.
The identifying marking on the surface must be clear and permanent enough to withstand handling, weather conditionsand thelike, and yet not damage the surface by etching the same.
agent. While the vehicle may volatilize or. distill of! at higher temperatures, the distillation point should be above the melting point of the setting agent. The vehicle is thus active in flowing'pigment and setting agent onto hot surfaces at relatively low temperatures. If the surfaces are heated to temperatures above the distillationpoint of the vehicle, the vehicle will boil off, but,
before it leaves the marking, the setting agent will be in a molten condition toanchor the pigs ment.
We have found that/solid: halogenated asmatic organic compounds such as chlorinated naphthalenes are excellent vehiclesfor'the pig- .hexachloronaphthalene, for example, can be It is sometimes desirable that the marking be removable in picklingbaths and the like because, by the time the marked metal objects, reach this.
classified and segregated for a particular use.-
- We have'now provided neutral solid sticks or pencils capable of leaving identifying markings on cold or hot surfaces. The markings will withstand temperatures as high as 1800 F. and .will not flake off by mechanical'acti'on at any temperature.

Upon cooling, a hard mark ing implement of the desired shape is formed.
