It is understood that given the passage of time and the general increase in scientific and technical knowledge and information now generally publicly available that this limitation is no longer applicable. The authors worked for the Aerojet-General Corporation. Abstract: The ternary alloy systems Ti-B-C, Zr-B-C, and Hf-B-C have been investigated by means of X-ray, metallographic, melting point, and differential-thermoanalytical techniques. The experimental alloy material comprised of hot-pressed and sintered, arc and electron-beam molten, as well as high temperature equilibrated and quenched, specimens; each phase of the experimental work was support by chemical analysis. the results of this investigation are discussed and possible fields of application outlined. Aerojet developed from a 1936 meeting hosted by Theodore von Kármán at his home. Joining von Kármán, who was at the time director of Guggenheim Aeronautical Laboratory at the California Institute of Technology, were a number of Caltech professors and students, including rocket scientist and astrophysicist Fritz Zwicky and explosives expert Jack Parsons, all of whom were interested in the topic of spaceflight. The group continued to occasionally meet, but its activities were limited to discussions rather than experimentation. Their first design was tested on August 16, 1941, consisting of a small cylindrical solid-fuel motor attached to the bottom of a plane. Takeoff distance was shortened by half, and the USAAF placed an order for experimental production versions. The company expanded greatly during WWII and afterwards.
