Alloys Index

The memorandum presents the definitions of temper designations. It is organized into three parts: (1) temper designation (alphanumeric), (2) temper, by metallurgical term, (3) tempers by base material. This memorandum, in conjunction with Memorandum 232, 'Designations of Alloys for the Aerospace Industry' provide a ready reference for any given combination of alloy and temper designations. (Author).

This Index contains literature references to -- 10,000 research papers on physical properties of metals and alloys. The Index contains all NMR Knight shift papers and soft x-ray emission papers. It also contains many soft x-ray absorption papers and a number of papers on generally related topics such as susceptibilities, specific heats, hyperfine fields, and band structures. The papers are annotated in depth and the coded information put onto a magnetic tape. The Permuted Materials Index was created from this tape, listing alloys under each of their constituent components (i.e., CuNi appears under CuNi and under NiCu alloys).
