This book was released on 1961 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Silicone, silane, and mineral oil lubraicating fluids were studied at 700 degrees F under inert and oxidizing atmospheres while in the presence of various individual metals. Physical and chemical changes in the fluids and metals were noted. Fluids studied were two (2) methyl chlorophenyl silicones, a methyl phenyl silicone, a hydrogentaed mineral oil and a silane. Metals used included magnesium, titanium, aluminum, silver, copper brass, bronze, monel steel, stainless steel, copper-beryllium steel, vanadium tool steel, chrome plated steel, cast iron and chrome-molybdenum steel. The siland fluid was the least affected fluid and was alsothe most compatible fluid with metals"--P. iii.
