Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ROGER WVILLIAM WALLACE, OF LONDON, ENGLAND, ASSIGNOR TO THE ELECTRO-METALLURGICAL COMPANY, LIMITED, OE SAME PLACE.
CRUCIBLE AND PROCESS OF MAKING SAME.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 585,993, dated July 6, 1897. Application filed June 13, 1896. Serial No. 595,480. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ROGER WILLIAM \VAL- LACE, a citizen of England, and a resident of London, England, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Crucibles and Processes of Making the Same, of which the the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to improvements in the fusion of chromium and similar metals and to the manufacture of their alloys with the usual metals.
To facilitate the following description, it may be said at once that the bodies herein referred to as similar to chromium are molyb-. denum, tungsten, uranium, or alloys of these metals, either with one another or with chromium; and it should be fully understood that when chromium is spoken of what is said is to be understood of the above-designated metals or their alloys.
The fusion of chromium requires the use of excessively-high temperatures, and when this fusion is effected in ordinary crucibles, able to resist the temperatures employed, the chromium is contaminated by the Very matter which constitutes the crucible. Thus it is that a crucible or receptacle of carbon carburizes the metal and imparts to it properties which it is important to guard against. To avoid difficulty from this source, the crucibles or receptacles are,in accordance with the present invention, lined with oXid of chromium. To effect this lining, the following procedure is employed: In a suitable crucible or receptacle borax, cryolite, sodium chlorid, calcium fluoride, or a mixture of these bodies is melted with an addition of oxid of chromium, which rests in suspension in the fused or molten mass. This done, the interior surface of the crucible which is to be lined (and which may be heated or not) is coated with the molten mass by any suitable process, or, in particular, by successively inclining the crucible in all directions, so that the fused mass covers over the whole interior surface of the crucible and thereby forms a protecting coat.
It is to be noted that, the object of this invention being to obtain alloys of chromium, 85c. containing no additional metal than that which serves as the base of the alloy, it is not admissible to employ chrome ores, as has been proposed heretofore for making linings of furnaces, and which contain iron oXid and silica. I utilize by my invention the ordinary graphite retorts by lining the same expeditiously at the moment of utilization.
The method of lining just described, with reference to the fusion, is applicable without modification to the preparation of crucibles or receptacles for the production of alloys of chromium with the usual metals.
I claim as my invention or discovery- 1. The described improvement in the manufacture of crucibles for fusion of chromium and similar metals and for production of alloys thereof with other metals, said improvement consisting in lining the crucible with the oXid of the corresponding metal by fusing a flux, such as hora-X, with addition of an oXid of the desired metal until the oxid is held in suspension in the flux, and then, by agitating the mass while the same hardens, forming a coating thereof upon the interior of the crucible, as set forth.
2. A crucible provided with an adherent interior coating of oxid of chromium free fro-m other metallic base, substantially as described.
23. A crucible with an adherent interior coating of oXid of chromium free from other metallic base and a suitable flux, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribin g witnesses.
ROGER IVILLIAM IVALLACE.
