PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF SOME HIGH-STRENGTH FINE WIRES

摘要

This memorandum presents the available data on the mechanical and physical properties of some high-strength fine wires. Such wires are of increasing interest to the Department of Defense and to defense con-tractors and subcontractors as possible materials of construction in rocket-motor cases, pressure vessels, aircraft cable, high-temperature parachute cloth, and other applications. In spite of this increasing interest, only relatively little, widely scattered information has been available.
