Benefits of technology

The patent describes a method of increasing the temperature of a molten material in a controlled manner. This can be done by raising and decreasing the temperature between two set temperatures, or by changing the temperature of each cycle. The method involves incrementally increasing the temperature of each cycle, resulting in a highly precise control over the heating process. This technique can be useful in various manufacturing processes where precise temperature control is important.

Problems solved by technology

A disadvantage of these methods is that the products obtained thereby are characterized by carbon contaminants, often at levels of saturation or above.

example 1

[0086]The object of this run was to duplicate a previously “failed run.” The prior run “failed” due to insufficient insulating wraps around the crucible causing a large heat loss an inability to reach the initial saturation temperature of 2462° F. even after allowing the unit to apply maximum power—40 Kw for three hours. After maintaining full power for 3 hours the final temperature reached on run RO14-02-005 was 2300° F. To duplicate, all insulating wraps were removed from the outside of the crucible. A cylindrical alumina-based crucible (99.68% Al2O3, 0.07% SiO2, 0.08% Fe2O3, 0.04% CaO, 0.12% Na2O3; 4.5″ O.D.×3.75″ I.D.×14.5″ depth) of a 100-pound induction furnace reactor (Inductotherm) fitted with a 73-30R Powertrak power supply. The induction coil attached to the power supply had the following dimensions: 1 foot 3 inch O.D. by 1 foot 1 inch I.D. The total coil height was 1 foot 5 inches. The active zone of the coil comprised 8 active wraps with a total height of 1 foot 1 quarte...

Abstract

The present invention relates to tailored materials, particularly metals and alloys, and methods of making such materials. The new compositions of matter exhibit long-range ordering and unique electronic character.

Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a Continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 12 / 609,044, filed Oct. 30, 2009, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 109,751, filed Oct. 30, 2008 and U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 165,689, filed on Apr. 1, 2009. The entire teachings of the above applications are incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Tailoring a variety of materials has been described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,572,792 and 7,238,297, entitled “COMPOSITION OF MATTER TAILORING: SYSTEM I” and U.S. Ser. No. 11 / 063,694 entitled “COMPOSITION OF MATTER TAILORING: SYSTEM II”, filed Feb. 23, 2005, each by Christopher Nagel, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. In the methods described in the prior patents, carbon is added to the material in an iterative heating cycle and the products produced by the methods possess modified electronic structures. A disadvantage of these methods is that the products obtained ...
