Optical fiber transmission has many features which make it very attractive for Military applications. Furthermore, single mode fiber is superior to multimode fiber in terms of bandwidth, attenuation, radiation resistance and cost. The benefits of single mode optical fiber transmission can be further enhanced with the use of Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology in which multiple, independent optical signals may be simultaneously transmitted over a single fiber. This permits single ...
The corrosion behavior of several nickel-base and high nickel stainless alloys has been investigated by coupon testing in a chlorine dioxide bleached pulp washer; nickel-base alloys (containing >50% Ni) were found to suffer high rates of general corrosion thinning in the hot, oxidizing, chloride- containing, near-neutral pH environment; high nickel alloy (containing 30% -50% Ni) and stainless steels (<30% Ni) did not experience thinning, but rather suffered crevice corrosion attack; ...
