NEW ALLOY FOUNDIN "HUNT FOR PLATINUM

PITTSBURGH, May 30 (U. BP.) — A new alloy, stronger than the hardest steel and containing only 7 per cent iron, has been developed here. Tentatively called “K-42-B,” the

chrominum, iron, carbon and manganese. Its ability to withstand high temperatures was proved when the metal refused to melt at temperatures nearing 3000-degree Fahrenheit mark. At the same time, “K-42-B” was found fo resist corrosion and oxidation—a fact that research workers. believe will make it adaptable for steam fittings and dies.

The new metal was discovered during the search for an economical substitute for platinum in the manufacture of filaments for radio tubes. Porter H. Brace, chief research worker, says its cost is-com-parable with similar alloys. He added that the term “K-42-B” is likely to remain its official name,
