Title: THE ANALYSIS OF REFRACTORY BORIDES, CARBIDES, NITRIDES, AND SILICIDES
Abstract: Methods are presented for the analysis of 41 refractory materials. An evaluation of the accuracy and the precision of these techniques are also given The materials studied are the borides of hafnium, molybdenum, niobiumL rhenium, tantalum, thorium, titanium, tungsten, uranium vanadium, and zirconium; the carbides of hafnium molybdenum, miobium, silicon, tantalum, thorium, titanium, tungsten, uranium, vanadium, and zircomium; the nitrides of boron, hafnium, niobium, silicon, tantalum, titanium, uranium, and zirconium; the silicides of molybdenum, rhenium, tantalum, titanium, tungsten, vanadium, and zirconium; and mixed carbides of uranium with hafnium, niobium, tantalum, or zirconium.
