-We .have found .that the? mechanical Ystrength of coil forms made according to. our invention is:
fully equal to, and in some cases exceeds, -the mechanicalV strength of similar coilforms `made according lto the prior-'art swagingy method.
The chemical composition vof the treating-'..bath `may'take any 'desired form within wide limits.. In general, the treating bath should comprise a..y
moderate amount of a swelling agent combined with substantiallygreater quantities .ofI solvent.
While widediscretionin the choice of solvents land their proportions .may be allowed, the composition employed will greatly influence the length of time7 required 'for the bath to effect the swelling-'fand settingactions whichA in our invention' accomplish the anchoring ofthe flangesto the core. l We 'havev found that effective yet extremely. rapidi results" can vbe obtained-When the swelling agent is combined with va'plurality of solvents having'radically different time characteristics. 'In our-most satis-5l factory compositionswe have employed a rela-- tivelysmall quantity of a mild solvent combined with larger and substantially equal quantities of j an active solvent and an extremely `active solvent.

E @ample I A bath was made up of 601 parts of tetrahydrofuran, an extremely active solvent for cellulose acetate, 50 parts of acetone, a somewhat less active s olventgjg'and 2O parts' of`= ethylene glycol monomethylietherfa mildfsoftening solvent, and 10 parts of methyl isobutyl ketone, the swelling agent. The ingredients were mixed thoroughly ,at room temperature, and the bath was then ready It was found that excellent results were :placed:nit'lforiaaperiod of ve seconds.
'ample II A bath'for carrying out our invention 'Was'prepared by employing 64 parts of furfural,
40 parts of ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, and LIO-'parts-'of methyl 'isobutylketone These ingredients were fmixed=thoroughly `at room" temperature. and tdtheml was added one part yof dibutyl phthalate. 'Y The resulting bath fwas' .employedlat room Ytemperature inlthe practice 'of our invention. It was found that immersion ofthe c'o'ilforms'in :the bath for intervals of `one'to 'five seconds effectively swelled the plastic coatings on thercores andprovided excellent anchorage for the terminal-flanges. v
.It 'willbe understood, of course, that the construction-.shown in the drawing, which employs theaxial indentations; I 5 inthe terminal flanges, is lmerely a preferred form. If the application doesnot require thatthe surface 'of the flanges be ushfwiththe ends ofthe core, planar terminal anges maybe employed.
