Storage Stability of Gasoline: Fundamentals of Gum Formation, Including a Discussion of Radiotracer Techniques

Description: From Abstract: "The data show that sulfur compounds, nitrogen compounds, polycyclics, and olefins enter into gum-forming reactions. Certain sulfur and nitrogen compounds were found to be most reactive in the gum-forming process. Results of this study indicate that the aromatic constituents of gasolines may contribute substantially and directly to gum formation."

Studies of High-Current Metallic Arcs

Description: From Introduction: "This paper is in the nature of a progress report on the Bureau of Mines' program for arc research, combined with a correlation of information from many other sources. An attempt is made to define the arc, to report on the data accumulated, to review published work, and to advance interpretations. It is hoped thereby to supply new information, to clarify the state of arc knowledge, and to stimulate research in other laboratories."
