RUBIDIUM INVESTIGATIONS<br />
The results of preliminary tests of <strong>the</strong> resistance<br />
of lnconel to attack by molten rubidium were dis-<br />
cussed in <strong>the</strong> previous report.2 Static tests at<br />
1500 and 1650OF have shown a maximum attack of<br />
from 1 to 2 mils in 100 hr. The attack has been<br />
corrosion of lnconel<br />
problem, a dynamic<br />
test was conducted. The resistance of lnconel<br />
to corrosion by flowing liquid and vaporized ru-<br />
bidium in a closed system incorporating a tempera-<br />
turegradient was determined by means of a dynamic<br />
loop apparatus, somewhat similar in appearance<br />
