the duPont Company, had. been held in the offices of the Association on December 1, 1961, to discuss the problem of leaded gasoline as it affects air pollution.

The work now underway by his company is to develop a catalyst that will not be affected by TEL. He also stated that if the answer is not soon forthcoming there is a strong possibility that the Los Angeles authorities would rule out the use of leaded gasoline and that his company looks on this situation with the utmost concern for the con tinued use of TEL in gasoline.

LEAD INDUSTRIES ASSOCIATION
202 MADISON AVENUE NEW YORK 17, N. Y.
November 29, 196l SUBJECT: 1962 BUDGET DATA
To the Board of Directors of the Lead Industries Association:
On the attached pages you will find data relative to the various Association budgets, including budgets approved for 1961, estimated actual expenditures in 1961, and recommended budgets for 1962, as follows:
1. Ordinary Fund
Page 1
2. Pension Fund
Page 1
3. Health and Safety Fund 4. Industry Development Fund
Page 2 Page 3
5- All Funds Combined
Page 8
The Expanded Research Fund is to be sent you separately by the Research Director.
Items 1, 2, 3 and. 4 above are presented in the same manner as in previous years. Item 5, however, is a recap itulation of these and is presented as a suggested simplified form of accounting and budgeting in the future.
In other words, it is proposed that only one budget be presented henceforth which would combine all activities of the Association except Research. This has not been done in the past because all Association members subscribe to the Ordinary and Health and Safety Funds on one basis (a 4:l:l:-- ratio between miners, smelters and refiners, manufacturers, and producers of assembled articles like batteries, cable and aircnunition) and only pig lead producers to the Industry Development Fund on a flat rate per ton of lead sold in the United States. Many expenses such as rent, salaries, pension payments and the like have been more or less arbitrarily pro-rated between the various funds.
In the future, if the combined budget is presented, the number of accounts would be greatly reduced, pro-rating would be avoided, and yet we feel a true and clear picture
UA01077
N 673.06
-2- November 29, 196l of the Association's finances would still be available. Once such an overall budget is approved by the Board, the Board could then establish rates for membership subscriptions to be charged to all members. It is sug gested that these rates for 1962 be l6$ per ton for miners, per ton for smelters, refiners and manufacturers, and 2^ per ton for producers of assembled articles, since these are the average rates for the last three years. It is estimated that the sum thus subscribed would approximate $85,000 in 1962.
This would then be deducted from the total budget and the balance would be charged to the pig lead producers uni formly on the basis of their sales in the United States. It is not likely that this procedure would create any major changes in the cost of supporting the Association's activities, and it has the endorsement of the president.
Very truly yours.

The total recommended for the Ordinary Fund in 1962 is approximately the same as that approved for 1961. However, the Health and Safety Fund total is substantially larger than in 1961, the difference being almost entirely the salary of our new Health and Safety Director, which was not provided for in the 1961 budget.

This amount approved for transfer to Pigment Technical Letter. This item originally approved at $15,000 hut during the year $10,000
was transferred to pigment advertising, and $3,750 to abstracting service.
The foregoing Industry Development Budget is recommended to the Board and has been approved by the Industry Development Committee, which also recommended a subscription rate of 65^ per ton of pig lead sold in the United States to raise the required funds.
The following notes are in explanation of the detailed Industry Develop ment Fund items.
PUBLICATIONS
"Lead." This eight-page quarterly dealing with the overall uses of lead is circulated to some 50,000 people in the United States and, through the cooperation of the L.D.A. and members outside the U.S., to an additional 4,500 people in the United Kingdom and Canada. We consider it one of our most valuable promotional media, a source of a large number of live inquiries, and its publication should be maintained.
Reprints. Each year a number of articles appear in the trade press, usually prepared by the Association staff or through staff cooperation with trade paper editors, which describe various uses of lead. It is our practice to reprint the more valuable of these for circulation to members and other interested parties not covered by the magazines in which they appear. So successful has the placing of these articles been in 1961 that our budget for reprints was exceeded by about 100 per cent. We therefore recommend doubling this item in the 1962 budget to equal the amount actually spent in 1961.
Construction Bulletins and Architectural Flyers. This series was
started at the suggestion of our architectural consultants, Skidmore,
Owings & Merrill, several years ago. We believe a modest increase is
warranted bo support the work of our own architect, now that we have
one full time on our staff.
LIAC1082
Ceramic Supplements. Since the publication of our book, "Lead in the Ceramic Industries," several years ago, we have issued one or two supplements to it each year to keep it up to date. We believe this practice should be continued on a moderately reduced scale.
Page 5
Sweet1 s Catalogs. No change in this item is recommended. We are now using the following catalogs in Sweet's:
File
Architectural Light Construction Industrial Construction Design Engineering
Subjects
Roofing, Plumbing, Noise 8c Vibration Control Plumbing Roofing, Noise 8s Vibration Control All aspects of lead usage
Pigment Manual. Last year the Pigments Technical Committee called attention to the need for a basic manual on lead pigments, their properties and uses, similar to our ceramics manual. It would serve to educate . young paint chemists who know little about both old and new lead pig ments and as a reminder to older paint chemists as to what lead pigments can do for them. The I.D.C. agreed that such a manual should be pre pared. One section is now in rough draft form and it is believed the book can be completed in 1962. Provision is made for its printing and distribution, although the cost estimate is of necessity rough until the extent of the book is better known.
Pigment Technical Letter. Since 1961 will see the completion of a voluminous Technical Letter on red lead paints, no new Technical Letters are contemplated in 1962, although the series may be resumed at any time it appears to be advantageous.
Anti-Vibration Report. It is understood that the original report on lead-asbestos anti-vibration pads may soon be ready for issuance in inexpensive form as a progress report to be followed by confirmatory research. If further work substantiates the effectiveness of these pads, a more comprehensive report should be issued later. Provision is made for these reports in the budget.
Delivery Truck Brochure. Provision was made in the 1961 budget for publication of a brochure on short haul street delivery trucks powered by storage batteries. The brochure was not issued due to lack of reliable operating cost data. It is hoped that the data will be avail able in 1962 and we feel that the budget should again provide for publication of this brochure.
Monograph. One-thousand dollars was budgeted in 1961 for the A.C.S. Monograph on lead, copy for which is now largely in our hands. This money was not spent but arrangements have been made with Dr. Alex Stewart, former research director of National Lead Co., to complete the editing. Provision for this cost is made in the 1962 budget.
Noise Control Manual. We are informed that the research program on lead for noise control will result in material for a comprehensive manual on the subject in 1962. Provision is made for printing such a manual, although the cost estimate is rough since little information is available at this time sis to the size and nature of the manual.
Cable Handbook. It is proposed to enlist the assistance of our Cable Sheathing Task Group in the preparation of a manual setting forth the advantages of lead for cable sheathing and how it overcomes
LI AO 1083
Page 6
some of the defects of competitive materials like plastics, aluminum and steel.
Motive Power Batteries. As storage batteries are becoming more and more widely used to power such equipment as lawn mowers, small boats, golf carts and personnel carriers, it is felt that a modest brochure suggesting how batteries may be and are being used for motive power should be prepared.
ADVERTISING
In 1961 L.I.A. carried advertising campaigns in one architectural, one construction, three design engineering, one metal product manu facturing and three ceramic magazines. At the annual meeting an additional campaign in three paint magazines was approved, which is now in preparation and will start running shortly.
It is proposed to continue the above campaigns, increasing the number of insertions in the architectural publication. It is also proposed to start a modest campaign on lead cable sheathing in "Electrical World" on the advice of an important cable manu facturer and an important cable user. All of these reach specific industries on specific lead products.
Addition of a modest campaign in "Factory" to reach middle management in a great variety of industries is also proposed. This - will be used to promote such products as battery powered industrial trucks, noise and vibration control items.
MISCELLANEOUS PROMOTION
Motion Picture. In the current year $3,000 was approved for preparation of a preliminary scenario for a motion picture on lead on which to make a final decision as to the desirability and nature of such a picture. This is in preparation and no further recommendation is made until it is completed and studied.
Conventions and Exhibits. No change in budget is recommended here. Tn TQ6l we exhibited in the Homebuilders, Design Engineering, Plumbing Contractors, Chemical and Industrial Building Shows. It is believed that an exhibit at the annua], meeting of the American Institute of Architects can also be included without a budget increase.
Apprentice Contest. This is a modest expense, largely for supply ing lead materials and prizes for the annual plumbers' apprenticeship national contest and teacher training course, which should be continued.
L I A 010 84
Page 7 Product Development and. Contingencies. As a result of our advertising we are more and more frequently 'being approached by many companies for assistance and samples for their own testing after incorporation in their own products or plants. We have here tofore had no funds for this purpose. Sometimes ve are able to obtain samples at no cost; other times scxne expense is involved. Since interest of this kind by others is extremely valuable, ve believe ve should be in a position to render whatever assistance is necessary promptly. For this purpose ve recommend budgeting a somewhat larger amount for this purpose and to enable vis to act quickly in instances, for example, where a research project may unexpectedly or prematurely yield material needing advertising of one kind or another, or where some new promotional effort or publication may seem warranted during the year.
APIfflilSTRATIVE AND TECHNICAL SERVICE The only change of consequence recommended in this part of the budget is in the salary account. The increase in this item is in tended largely for the addition of one clerk to assist in handling the thousands of inquiries ve are receiving annually as a result of our advertising and to classify them as to source so that we may better judge the effectiveness of the various media.

INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE - LEAD INDUSTRIES ASSOCIATION
EXPANDED RESEARCH PROGRAM PRESENTATION
The Research Director, Dr. Radtke, discussed the work statements for nev research vhlch were the results of Idea sessions held by the subcom mittees during the summer. Dr. Radtke also reviewed that research reaching significant stages during the last year which Included the following: The research on powder metallurgy which has brought about a nev mechanism for producing Improvements In wrought properties, the work In acoustics which shoved excellent progress and for which a technical manual is being prepared, the cable sheathing press vhlch has Improved the cable sheathing process for the high strength alloys, the cladding of steel with lead by means of partic ulate metallurgy, organolead research being done by TNO yielding a potential FVC stabilizer and anti-fouling pigment, research on a ferrous corrosive inhibiting primer paint for which descriptive literature is being prepared, fiber metallurgy where the unique capabilities of retaining molten lead In the matrix provide unique properties applicable to bearings and solder tape.
Dr. Radtke then reviewed the 1962 research budget recommended by the Technical Steering Committee and discussed each project separately.
The committee reviewed various phases of the 1962 budget recommendations and the following comments were noted;
1. It was suggested that more fellowships be distributed in other
. countries.
2 It was suggested that the need existed for technical presentations in Europe of lead research progress.
3. It was suggested that research houses employing lead and/or zinc to the utmost be designed and built from which performance data could be obtained for ultimate promotional exploitation by the LIA program and/or AZI. This is similar to the program of research houses of the National Association of Home Builders.
4. The projects developed from the idea sessions were reviewed, and it was pointed out that the economic value of proposed projects be expanded as much as possible.
5. Much discussion followed concerning the total amount of research expenditures. It was noted that the proposed budget had been screened by the various technical committees and that the Technical Steering Committee had already substantially reduced the budget initially proposed to them. It was pointed out that cognizance had been taken by the Executive Committee of the ERP of the cash on hand available from previous budgets and that the assessment on member companies had therefore been reduced to bring the end-ofyear cash balance to the lowest reasonable operating level.
A motion was then made and seconded to approve $388,040.00 for the 1962 ERP research budget and the motion was carried by a vote of 8 to 3*

Discussion vas held on the administrative budget of the EHP. Dr. Radtke noted that the main reason for the Increased budget vas the ad dition of a fourth man to the ERP staff, the various expenses connected with travelling, additional space, committee activities, furniture and the retirement fund.
A motion vas made and seconded to approve $111,190.00 for the 1962 ERP administrative budget, and the motion vas carried by a vote of 9 to 3
A motion vas made, seconded and unanimously approved to fix the assessment rate of 26# per ton.
In the course of further discussion, it vas suggested that greater scrutiny be given to proposed projects for their market feasibility. Where projects have a substantial market potential, such as the program on sound attenuation, consideration should be given to enlarging the research effort. It vas also agreed that a closer liaison vas required between the Industry Development Committee and the ERP and that more fre quent meetings might be advisable.
Finally, it vas agreed that at. future IDC budget meetings each project be discussed separately by the committee to permit full consider ation of the economics of the program, project by project.

INTRODUCTION
The need to protect and expand their markets is exerting increasing pressure on all industries to improve the competitive quality of existing products and to develop new products. A survey of manufacturers by the McGraw-Hill Company (0 indicated that 10$ of their actual sales during
i960 consisted of products not produced in 1956. Significantly, the consensus of manufacturers is that by 196k, new products (defined as products not produced in i960) will rise to 14# of total sales.
These findings provide a powerful impetus to industry to intensify their research and development programs and the expenditures for research performed by private industry during i960 amounted to 10.5 billion dollars. Research and development performed by Federal funds absorbed an additional 2 billion dollars, thus bringing the total to 12.5 billion dollars in i960 or 2.5$ of the Gross National Product (GNP). A comparison of research and develop ment expenditures as related to sales of individual industries (see Table I), shows a ratio as high as 28$ for the aircraft industry and as low as . 19$ for the food industry. The research expenditures for the primary metal industries averaged about .60$ of total sales, with research expenditures for nonferrous metals averaging .73$*
Where do we stand on this ladder of research and development expenditures? Using our 1961 research and development budget, including all administrative expenses, as compared to i960 sales of one million tons of lead at 220 dollars per ton, we obtain a ratio of less than .16$, which is lower than the ratio of research to sales of any other industry.
What are the results of the research performed by the Expanded Research Program to date? Foremost among our many programs is one project relating to a product which has newness combined with the rare added advantage of an exceptionally large market potential. We are referring, of course, to the use of lead in sound attenuation, and much credit is due to the excellent promotional activities 0f the Lead Industries Association in this area. More than 4C$ of all inquiries are directed toward information on lead as a sound barrier and the project has reached a stage where commercial exploitation is gathering momentum. Interest In lead for sound attenuation is growing in Europe and Australia, and we are looking forward to greatly increased con sumption of lead in architecture, transportation, and industrial plants as a result of this research.
Several of our ceramic programs also possess great exotic appeal. Among these we find programs concerned with investigations of solid state properties of lead compounds for application in dielectrics, piezoelectricity, magnetic ferrites, spark pumps, thenooelectricity, and similar uses. An additional 4C# of inquiries received by the Lead Industries Association are directed toward information along these lines. The ceramic program is also concerned with the use of lead compounds in glasses, enamels and glazes for the coating of metals, structural clay products and other substrates--the ceramic market areas which constitute the bulk of lead utilization.

It must be remembered, however, that the football star making the winning touchdown would be much less of a hero without the solid support of his teammates. The programs dealing with alloy development, powder metallurgy, cladding problems, corrosion studies, lead chemicals and glasses,--these are the programs forming the backbone of our research. Here we are developing new compounds, fiber reinforced lead for bearings, and solder having Improved physical properties and higher creep strength, new lead chemicals such as hexaphenyldilead for superior antifouling paints, and ferrous primer paints in water reducible vehicles. On occasion, the results of certain research projects do not measure up to expectations, but tomorrow they may produce another star performer. Our former program on the continuous extrusion of cable sheathing is continuing to enlarge the use of the machine developed during the course of this work, thus improving the position of lead in cable sheathing.
Our proposed research budget for 1962 is on the order of $388>000. This sum is greater than the 1961 budget, but in line with the i960 research budget. Much thought and discussion have gone into the preparation of the 1962 research budget, and it 1b the consensus of the technical committees and of the EBP staff that the research programs recommended in the following pages are of vital importance to the progress of the industry and the expansion of its markets.
In the following pages we will review the projects recommended by the subcommittees and the Technical Steering Committee as necessary for the protection and expansion of the lead industry. The projects will be discussed individually and, so far as feasible, their applicable market areas and market potentials will be considered and commented upon.
For easier reference a suffix has been appended to each project number to denote its general category.

TEE ARCHITECTURAL MARKET
The value of nev construction put in place during i960 is estimated by the Bureau of Census at 55 billion dollars. The projected amount that will be spent on nev construction the next ten years will thus exceed the value of all the buildings standing in the united States today estimated at 500 billion dollars. Among the materials shipped to the construction Industry during i960, finished steel came close to 10 million tons and aluminum for construction exceeded 600 thousand tons. If the aluminum were replaced vith an equivalent volume of lead, Its weight would be 4.5 million tons.
These figures are quoted merely as an Indication of the size of market areas available for potential applications In the construction Industry. To capture a share of this growing market ve must Improve the properties of lead, design methods to Install lead economically and develop technical data for builders to make them aware of the merits of lead In architectural applications.
LM-16-62 (XA) - IEAD FCR SOUND ATTENUATION IN ARCHITECTURE,
_______ Levis S. Goodfriend & Associates
____
The use of lead In architecture for the purpose of sound attenuation Is being adopted enthusiastically by architects, builders and consumers. Several manufacturers have come out vith leaded vinyl doors, lead impregnated woven fabric space dividers, and nev products reaching the market as quickly as nev designs are being developed.
The program now In progress at Goodfriend & Associates is proceeding at a very satisfactory rate and the study and evaluation of superior lead sound barriers Is opening areas of application In architecture where lead had no entry heretofore.
Even casual Inspection of pertinent architectural markets reveals the tremendous potentials for Increased consumption of lead In this area. Consider ing the surface of office partitions and ceilings at a very low figure of 600 million square feet (Bureau of Census Estimate) and assuming the potential use of lead at 6 lbs. per square foot In only 1$ of this area, gives us a total of 12.000 tons per year. Sound Isolation of 1^ of the bathrooms In 1.25 million
small residential houses vith 4 lbs. per square foot lead would consume over 6.000 tons of lead per year. The use of lead in existing buildings for similar purposes may be likewise assumed at 20,000 tons. Lead for sound attenuation can also be used In trailers, ships and airplanes for a greatly Increased con sumption of lead.
Required 1962 Funds - $37250
IM-7-61 (XA) - LEAD ASBESTOS EADS FOR VIBRATION ATTENUATION
The main objective of this somewhat controversial program Is to Justify conclusively the use of lead for vibration attenuation. At the present, about 500 tons of lead are sold annually for this purpose, primarily In the foundations of large buildings.

Budget Presentation to the Industry Development Committee of the LIA
A look at the appliance market shows that the i960 sales of air conditioners totaled 1.6 million units, refrigerators 3*5 million, freezers 1 million, washing machines 3 million, dryers 1.25 million, fans 3 million. Assuming 4 lbs. of lead for only 10 million of these units totals 2,000 tons of lead. Consideration of electrical and Industrial machinery will Increase this potential two fold and more.

LM-26-61 (XA) - LEAD POWDER CLADDING OF STEEL. PILOT DEVELOPMENT
The successful findings obtained from this research at the university of British Columbia warrant the extension of this program to produce lead coated steel economically. A pilot plant development program Is recommended.
The application of lead to metal curtain walls, clad steel roofing, container stock and farm structures offers a market potential of about 2,000 tons. It Is believed that many other areas, resulting In substantial lead tonnage, would use lead clad steel were It available more economically and with a range of coating thicknesses.

LE-36-62 (XB) - HIGH SPEED PLATING CF LEAD, GRAHAM SAVAGE & ASSOCIATES
The fundamental research performed by this contractor has produced very worthwhile results in the development of an improved fluoborste lead plating bath and of a sophisticated device for evaluation of lead deposits. Successful de velopment of methods for the economic production of plated lead coatings at 2 mils thlokness and heavier would offer a substantial architectural market op portunity. Tie present consumption of 3,000 tons of lead for teme plating would also be greatly Increased If a low cost electroplated teme can be developed.
Required 1962 Funds - $25.120
New research projects proposed for Initiation consist of the following:
UfrM-6l (HA) - JOINING CF LEAD TO LEAD AND TO OTHER 8UBSTOA3ES
This proposal from ASARCO concerns the evaluation of methods and adhesives for the jr.lnin? of lead. Effectual and economic solutions to this problem will greatly increase the consumption of lead in the chemical Industries end provide a sharp breakthrough in the development of lead composites.

Ui-b5-6l (HA.) - LEAD POWDER METALLURGY SHEET ARP EXTRU8ICK
The proposal received from ASARCO vas selected by the Technical Committees over three other proposals and concerns the development of methods for produc ing utility sheet extrusions, and cable sheathing from lead powders.
This project is part of the broad program to produce superior wrought lead products by means of powder metallurgy and successful accomplishments in this area will be of great commercial value to the lead industry.
Required 1962 Funds - NOSE
(ULM-l) (UA) - LEAD COMPOSITE PRODUCTS IH CONSTRUCTION
Lead composites have an exceptionally large potential in the architectural market and a workable development in this area will confer great benefit to other lead products for construction. This proposed program contains a funda mental soundness in that successful findings derived from this research can readily be applied toward the realization of other research objectives such as for sound attenuation. The objective of this program is to show the economic and technical feasibility of lead composite materials. Special consideration would be given to the continuous casting process developed by COMINCO and BHAS for producing low cost, thin sheet for the composites.
A highlight inspection of potential architectural applications shows that the 1 million new one-family houses being built each year provide a roofing area of about 12 hundred million square feet. If 1$ of this area were covered with composite materials containing 1/3 of 1 lb. of lead per square foot, it would consume 2,000 tons of lead annually. Wall paper, with an annual consump tion of 5,000 million square feet, could utilize about 20,000 tons of lead if 1/2$ of the amount were bonded to .125 inch thick lead for sound attenuation. Many other areas of application in architecture can be reached with lead com posites once their economy and utility are established.
Required 1962 Funds - $5,000
(UIM-7) (UA) - HEAVY IEAD CIADDIRG FCB CHEMICAL HART USE
This proposal deals with the problems of bonding thick lead coatings onto steel to eliminate porosity of the coating, slow rates of application and conse quent high costs. Research in this region may mitigate or eliminate the factors which militate against a greater consumption of lead for the cladding of metals. The main markets for heavy lead cladding are In the chemical industry and in nuclear shielding, but estimates of market potentials are premature at this time.

(ULM-13)(Ufl-)-PLUMBIHG APPLICATIONS OF IEAD
It is Interesting to note that lead pipe vas selected in preference to other materials in selected areas in both Levittowns, Philadelphia and Lang Island* The reason for this was that the plant efficiency of the contractor brought about economies in labor and low maintenance requirements for the lead Installation further reduced costs on a yearly basis. For obvious reasons, similar savings are not available to the average user of lead plumbing, and the findings which may result from this research to reduce costly assembly methods of lead pipe and cast iron pipe and calking lead should greatly increase the present consumption of 80,000 tons of lead in this market area.
Required 1962 Funds - $15,000
(ULC-l) (UA) - CERAMIC COATINGS FOR CEMENTITIOUS AND METALLIC SURFACES
This work statement has been prepared by Dr. Nordyke after extensive discussion with various experts in ceramic coatings. Glazed tile and porcelain enamel steel have long been held in high esteem because of their decorative appearance and durability. The development of suitable methods of application for lead glazes promises to open up an entirely new and sizable potential in the field of concrete blocks, structural clay bricks, and other cementitious and metallic construction products.
Considering only the minimum area that can be covered by the annual produc tion of 7,000 million bricks in the United States in i960, we obtain a surface area of kOO million square feet. Concrete blocks may be estimated conservatively as offering a surface area of 200 million square feet. The assumption of an additional 400 million square feet for other cementitious and metallic materials would bring the total market to 1,000 milnnn square feet.
The present consumption of litharge in glazes being on the order of 1,000 tons per year, it is believed that an estimated market potential of 10,000 tons of lead per year deriving from this research is a modest appraisal of eventual future consumption.

THE TRANSPQRTATION MARKET
The main divisions of the transportation market are automobiles, railroads, ships and airplanes. The projects discussed, under this heading pertain pri marily to the automobile and railroad industries, vhlle the latter transportation markets are covered indirectly by programs reviewed under different headings. Similarly, several other projects, although finding application in the trans portation market, are discussed under different headings.
IM-9-62 (XA) - Investigation of Metal Fiber Reinforced Lead, Armour Research Foundation
As a result of our research at ARF, the recent discovery of the retention of molten lead in a fiber matrix has opened up new market opportunities for metallic lead as a bearing material in railroad and municipal transportation systems. The unique ability of lead to retain the same coefficient of friction under static and dynamic conditions is now buttressed by the added advantage that the lead will remain contained within its fiber reinforcement even when molten. This recommends its use in railroad car bearings under conditions of high temperature and pressure and should result in increased lead consumption.
Based on information received from the railroad industry, 1.8 million railroad cars define the size of market available for bearing applications. Counting 8 bearings per car, this would involve 100 lbs. of fiber reinforced lead. Assuming the yearly replacement of bearings at 10# of the total and our market share at 5# of these 10#, and an equal quantity for new bearings, we can estimate the market potential for maintenance and bearings at 1,000 tons of lead annually.
The property of lead retention in fiber reinforcement can also be used to advantage in body solders and solder tapes for use in automobiles, plumbing, cable sheathing, etc. With a yearly production of 7 million passenger cars and 1 million trucks, a market potential of 5>000 tons in this area would be a conservative estimate.

LC-34-62 (XA) - Anticorrosive Properties of Lead Pigments in Water Reducible Ferrous Metal Primers, The Eagle-Plcher Co.
This program relating to lead pigments in metal primers is discussed under transportation because of its large market potential in the automotive Industry. Automobile manufacturers would welcome a water reducible primer free of volatile solvents and attendant fire and toxicity hazards.
An estimate of 1.5 gallon of primer per car, 15 lbs. of lead per gallon, and a yearly production of 8 million cars and trucks, brings the market potential to the total of 6,000 teas of lead annually. Considering steel priming, an additional consumption of 12,000 tons may be realized.

THE CABLE SHEATHING MARKET
A variety of factors, many beyond the scope of our research, have contributed to the diminishing consumption of lead for cable sheathing in the United 'States. New alloys possessing superior physical characteristics are still needed and a fresh approach toward the solution of this problem is being sought. Powder metallurgy extrusions have produced alloys with improved strength and creep resistance but more work in process metallurgy is required. Lead-plastic composites for cable sheathing hold forth great promise and proposed research in this direction will be discussed below.
IM-8-62 (XB) - Fundamental Investigation of Powder Metallurgy, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
The findings of this fundamental research are steadily increasing our knowledge of this new metallurgical process and give fair premise of trans lating laboratory techniques into commercially valuable production methods. New alloy systems superior to systems producible by conventional methods, have resulted in significantly improved lead sheet and extrusions on a laboratory scale.
Required 1962 Funds - $15,670
(UIM-5) (UA) - Development of Composite Plastic Cable Sheathing
The research proposed in this work statement offers a new approach towards increasing the use of lead in cable sheathing by use of a lead-plastic covering. The composite makes plastic-lead sheathing impermeable to moisture. Improves the corrosion resistance, permits the production of a superior sheathing, and thereby markedly improves the performance of the composite structure.
Secondly, the lead-plastic composite, similar to other metal-plastic composites, may exhibit much greater ductility than either material by itself as a result of the molecular bonding between the plastic and the lead and the reduction in notch sensitivity of the lead sheath and improvement in fatigue resistance.
This program will he primarily of a defensive nature to arrest the decline in the use of lead for cable sheathing and, if technical and economic improvements will be made, to increase the consumption of lead for cable sheathing.

The members of the technical committees gave much thought to the alloy research performed by Armour Research Foundation and, although their conclusion was to discontinue work at ARF, they agreed unanimously that work on lead based alloys must be continued. The proposed program which was approved by the technical committes suggests that alloy systems be selected from the most promising alloys developed in our fundamental investigations, and that the new research will be directed primarily toward the development of commercial alloy systems. Successful developments will be of great benefit to the use of lead in all applications where it is used in the elementary state, but any evaluation of future market potentials at this time would be highly speculative.

THE CHEMICAL MARKET
The use of lead compounds in the chemical market is based almost exclusively on the production of tetraethyl lead. This compound represents a consumption of over 160,000 tons of lead, or 1656 of the total lead consumption in the United States and is certainly an area of vital importance to the lead industry. However, 25 years ago, tetraethyl lead did not exist at all and the expanded use of Jet engines and the potential threat of gas turbines, fuel cells, etc. may severely challenge the market within the next 15 years. The chemical market as a whole offers a realm of great opportunity. We must maintain and increase our efforts to develop and find applications for new lead chemicals, and our work must comprise both fundamental and applied research.
We feel that the projects discussed below offer a balanced program of research, that they are extremely important to the industry and that the findings will provide valuable data which will lead to wider appli cation of lead chemicals.
LC-18-62 (XB) A Fundamental Study of Organolead Chemistry. Organisch Chemisch Instltuut, T.N.O.
The organolead compounds developed by this contractor show promise of commercial applicability and their application potentials are being presently investigated. Hexaphenyldllead, which offeife intriguing properties for the plastic and paint industries, is being made available to commercial firms desiring to evaluate this material for new applications.
Market evaluation of this program is also premature at the present, but the findings of the research are being widely publicized and the importance of this program to the lead industry is self evident.

LC-28-60 (XB) Organolead Chemistry, Quartermaster Research & Engineering Command
In principle, this program is similar to that being conducted at T.H.O. and its objectives Include investigation of the biocidal properties of lead chemicals in insecticides and mildlcides for possible application in textiles, paints, protective coatings and other related Industries. Ihls program has only recently been started and will be concerned with the synthesis of new compounds to be followed by evaluation of their properties in the appli cations laboratories of the Quartermaster Research & Engineering Ccnmani. Extension of this program is highly recommended.

(ULC-9) (UA.) Lead Compounds in Adhesives
This proposed research concerns primarily an investigation of the litharge-glycerine system which, although in cotmercial use for many years, has never been studied on a scientific basis. Its superior resistance to acids and chemicals plus possible improvement through the employment of other polyhydroxy materials warrants further investigation on a scientific basis.
The market potential for an improved adhesive system should be in the order of 500 to 1,000 tons per year.
Required 1962 Funds - $5,000
THE PAINT MARKET
The consumption of lead pigments in the paint market has been decreasing in recent years and our two programs in this area are designed to protect and expand the use of lead pigments in finishes. One program, 1C- 34, dealing with metal primers, has been discussed under the Transportation Market, and its expansion potentials have been noted. The second program is of a more defensive nature and is concerned with wood primers.
LC-50-62 (XA) The Use of Lead Pigments in Air Drying, Water Reducible Paints for Wood, The Eagle Picher Company
This project is concerned primarily with an investigation of the compatibility of lead pigments with water reducible vehicles for exterior house paint. These new paint systems are expanding into the market for conventional oil thinnable systems, and to retain the present market for lead, these compatibility studies must be conducted. It is recamended that the present program be extended to the end of 1962*
Required 1962 Funds - $1,500
TEE TEXTIIE MARKET
Textiles, woven from both natural and synthetic fibers comprise an area in which the inclusion of lead has found little application hereto fore. However, research performed by the Department of Agriculture at New Orleans and at the Texas Women's University, has shown that lead compounds can contribute significantly to the improvement of cotton materials. It stands to reason that other textile materials may b similarly be improved by means of lead compounds. The potential of this market is great. *nd further work in this area should be initiated.

(ULC-3) (UA) Improvement of Fibrous Materials by Lead Chemical Treatments
The objective of this proposed research is to augment the efforts of the Department of Agriculture and to investigate organic and inorganic lead chemicals for their ability to improve the performance of fibrous materials.
. A rough estimate of the size of the textile market, based on the Bureau of Census data, shows that the i960 consumption of cotton in the United States was 2.2 million tons, consumption of rayon and acetate was 600,000 tons, wool was 200,000 tons and the consumption of silk and various synthetic fibers was 500,000 tons. Assuming the possibility of introducing 1/2 of 1$ of lead into this total of 3*5 million tons would offer us a market potential of 60,000 tons of lead per year.
It should be noted that lead used in textiles, in chemical compounds and in paint pigments have the commercial advantage of being completely consumed and never returning to the market as scrap.

THE CERAMIC MARKET
The versatility of lead compounds in the ceramic industry Justifies the fellowship program which has been in effect for a number of years. Our ceramic program is producing many advances in fundamental and technical know ledge which are of great help in increasing the utility of lead compounds in ceramic products. In addition, the favorable publicity created by this research, the papers being written, and the knowledge of lead materials being developed at the various universities endows our research in ceramics with a high return on our research expenditures.

Data on the surface tension characteristics of lead and the impact of minor alloying constituents are to be determined. Existing data have been obsoleted by new techniques and results of this study should benefit our many areas of metallurgical research.
Required 1962 funds - $5,000'
(ULE-5) (UB) - Corrosion of Lead in Various Media
There is a definite need for information on the reaction of lead to the host of new chemical compounds being developed. The lead industry must be in a position to provide competent data on the effectiveness of lead so that its scope of commercial application can be widened.
It is being proposed that a survey of industry and literature data be made and that these be then assembled and Incorporated into a manual for distribution to industry. To meet competition, assembly of this data into a useable form is deemed urgent.
Required 1962 funds - $30,000
(ULM-8) (UA) - Improvement of Lead Collapsible Tubes
The high incidence of cracking encountered in lead tubes used for fluoridated toothpaste has been causing considerable concern. Proctor St Gamble, who use lead tubes for their Crest toothpaste, are anxious to see the cracking problem solved and the lead Industry 6tands to lose a substantial part of this consumption if the problem is not solved. The growth of fluoridated toothpaste requiring lead tubes for corrosion resistance is a substantial market.
It is reconmended that a contingency fund be included in the 1962 budget to cover needed expenditures in this area.
Required 1962 funds - $3 >000
LP-38-62 - Corrosion Research Council
This covers the industries' contribution to the Council which is devoting its efforts to the fundamental study of corrosion mechanisms. Because of the inherent place of lead in the field of corrosion, we recommend continued support of this effort.
Required 1962 funds - $500
LIA01106
-15Budget Presentation to the Industry Development Comnlttee of the LIA
LP-52-62 - Abstracting 8ervlce Because of the value of the ZDA and LDA abstracting program to our
industries' technical personnel as veil as our consumers, ve recommend continuation of this effort. The library has been established and ab stractors hired to permit this program to get underway by 1 January 1962.
Required 1962 funds - $4,000 Uhdesignated Research Fund
Our Undesignated Research Fund has always played a vital part in permitting us to Initiate urgent programs arising during the year, or completely formulated during the year. The fund has been used each year, in whole or in part, and ve feel it must be included in our present bud get as in past years.
Required 1962 funds - $50,000
CONCLUSION Hie projects discussed above represent the best efforts of the ERP
and the technical committees to maintain a broad and well balanced program of lead research. It is proposed to extend and initiate work in new and critical areas. The work statements for new research were selected from the most promising proposals developed during the subcommittee idea sessions to enrich our research and to best serve the lead industry.

WORK STATEMEITT LEAD COMPOSITE PRODUCTS IN CONSTRUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Lead is historically noted for its long life and samples in excellent condition have been found which date back to Roman times. Lead also forms a very pleasing patina on its surface, la flame proof in that sparks, etc. will not ignite it and is non-staining. Many buildings in Europe, built in medieval times still stand under their original lead roofs, and even in the United States there are examples that date back to the ssventeeth century. In today's competitive market, however, lead is handicapped by problems of creep, antiquated methods of joining and prohibitively high costs of installation which completely price lead out of the picture. In order for lead to re-enter the architectural market, it is necessary that advances be made in lead materials to meet today's competitive market, and that the problems mentioned above be solved effectively and economically.
SCOPE
The objective of the research is to develop creep resistant in expensive lead sheet. It must be economical, it must have long life so that the historical reputation of lead is maintained, and it must be of sufficient thickness to permit a patina to form on the surface and yet maintain a permanent lead sheet beneath the patina.. This objective requires that lead be used in minimum thicknesses. It is believed that the greatest creep resistance and economy will be achieved by forming composites of lead with other materials, such as paper, plastics, asphalt impregnated papers, asbestos-cement tile, to provide rigidity or flexibility as desired/to1eliminate the weight and creep which have inhibited the use of lead in construction.
In addition to developing composite materials*faich have good properties with respect to creep, strength, permanence and corrosion resistance, we must develop methods of Joining the lead and the sub strate.
Furthermore, designs must be developed to me the lead composites as shingles, as siding and as products which can be applied from a roll to achieve simplicity of installation and to minimize labor costs. Our economic studies will be conducted concurrently with these develop ments to determine the sections of the architectural market in which lead composites can compete most effectively. We will also make full use of the COMINCO-BHAS sheet casting process for producing thin lead sheet at minimum cost for subsequent lamination.
ECONOMIC INCENTIVE
LIA01116
It is believed that with satisfactory products we can develop a market for at least 1*0,000 tons of lead per year in the United States, and this market could, with time, grow to many times this figure. The products to be investigated will be roofing, siding, flashing and acoustical materials for interior and exterior appli cation. The broad objective of the program will be to maintain the
N 673.16

reputation of lead for Its long life, Its pleasing patina. Its flame-proof characteristics, and to establish the lov cost of the basic material as veil as the lov cost of Installation. During the development stage, close contact will be maintained with manufacturers of building products and vith the National Association of Home Builders and other organizations to provide field testing for the nev lead composites and to substantiate their merits.

WORK STATEMENT DEVELOPMENT OF HEAVY LEAD CLADDING OF STEEL
SHEET, PLATE AND PIPE
Lead has been used for many years for the construction of chemical plant where corrosive conditions are encountered, and more recently has gained impor tant applications as a radiation shielding material in nuclear installations. Due to its low mechanical strength and its tendency to fail by creep and by fatigue when exposed to cyclic stresses, its application has been seriously limited, particularly in conditions under which vessels constructed of it are exposed to internal pressure or vacuum.
"Homogenous" or clad linings have been developed to meet the requirements of such service, and to provide a continuous lining in vessels in which other means of support of the lead are inadequate. Such linings are usually applied in the fused state to the steel supporting sheet, to give a continuous bond between the lead and the steel over the entire surface.
The method of applying such clad surfaces includes a preliminary clean ing of the steel surface, followed by a fluxing, to remove sill traces of oxide from the steel surface. Since pure lead will wet clean steel only with diffi culty, it is necessary to deposit a preliminary coating of a lead alloy -- usually an alloy with tin, antimony, or nickel, which is applied in the molten state on to the fluxed steel. The final pure lead coating is then melted or 'burned' on to the alloy layer to give the heavy protective coating of the required thickness.
In the United Kingdom, a process of bonding lead to steel by rolling has been developed experimentally. As in the cladding method by melting-on the coating, the steel is given a preliminary coating of a lead-tin or other lead alloy to promote wetting of the steel by the lead, and so obtain a bond. This is applied by dipping in the molten alloy. The main lead coating is then applied by passing the steel and a lead sheet through rolls, a method which is potentially much less costly than the traditional melting-on process. How ever, in tests at Trail on this type of coating, it was found that the bond between the alloy layer and the steel was not able to resist the heating effect of such operations as the welding of lead to the lead surface of the coating, and separation was found to occur in these locations.
The original method used for the preparation of lead-clad steel, was to lay the steel down in a perfectly horizontal position, and surround it with a low 'dam' along its four sides. The lead was then poured on to this sheet, (after it had been properly fluxed), to give a layer of the desired thickness. Before the lead solidified, it was stirred with a kind of rabble, or paddle, to decrease the porosity of the layer, and then allowed to cool to give a heavy lead coating. This method has been discontinued in favour of the more recent cladding procedures.
LIA01118
'V6/61 JLM7
2- -
Still another approach to the problem is the roll-bonding of lead powder on to steel. This method is at present under study at the University of British Columbia for the production of relatively thin coatings, but has not yet been applied to heavy coatings of the type considered here.
The high cost of the currently used cladding methods, due to the need for meticulous care in fluxing the steel, in preparing the alloy layer to give a bond with the steel, and in the amount of time required to apply the heavy lead clad coating, has militated against the wider use of lead. Development of modern methods of coating steel with such products as FVC and other plastics, by a continuous process has made such coated steel products available industri ally. The present program contemplates the development of such continuous processes to the application of a lead coating sealed to a steel sheet by a method which will have comparable unit production costs, and at the same time give a lead clad coating of good adhesion and free from pinholes and porosity.
Methods of cladding the interiors of pipe, as a means of combining the corrosion-resistance of lead with the strength of a steel pipe have been con sidered. One method has been the insertion of a lead pipe into the bore of a steel pipe, previously fluxed, and expanding the lead to give a tight fit by exerting of a high internal pressure, followed by external heating suffi. cient to make a bond. Another proposed method has been the centrifugal cast ing of lead in a precoated and fluxed steel pipe. As far as is known, this latter method has not been exploited 'commercially.
SCOPE
The investigation would embrace the study of the three factors which militate against the wider use of heavy lead coatings:
1. The difficulty in obtaining a strong bond between the lead coating and the steel surface: This might include a study of the factors affecting the wettability of steel by lead, in an effort to find an acceptable means of improving wettability and adhesion. An alternative which might dispense with the need for this wettability, such as the use of one of the newer adhesives might be sought.
2. The high labour cost and the slow rate of application of the con ventional homogeneous coating: This would involve the search for methods of applying the lead to the steel sheet surface which could be more highly mechanized. Any approach to a continuous process would have the result of both decreasing the cost and of increasing the uniformity of the product.

3* The tendency to form pinholes and porosity in the coating: This problem would automatically be decreased by methods of application which do not include the application of lead in the molten state, or which are contin uous . The complete elimination of porosity would so improve the quality and reduce the cost of inspection, that it would increase the popularity of lead coatings.
k. A review of any method of forming lead coatings which would be a radical departure from the present methods based on the application of molten lead. This would include methods using lead powder, or any other method shew ing originality in approach which might promise substantial mechanization or simplification of techniques.
ECONOMIC VALUE TO THE INDUSTRY
The competitive position of lead as a corrosion-resisting clad lining is weakened as much, or more by the costly, labour-consuming methods used in its application as by the intrinsic cost of the metal itself. In many environ ments, particularly in the presence of sulphuric acid and the sulphate ion generally, lead is still the most effective corrosion barrier. If more per fect clad linings can be obtained by streamlined methods of application which are not too closely tied to special, and often rare trade skills, then a significantly-wider field of application will be possible.

WORK SCEAZB4EST PLUMBING APPLICATIONS OF LEAD
EXHIBIT "C"
INTRODUCTION
Lead Is used In two principal applications In the general plumbing field. These applications, vhlch jointly consume about 76,000 tons annually In recent years, are caulking lead for cast Iron soil pipe and water mains (51,000 tons eve. 1956-59) and lead pipe far water service and drains (25,000 tons - Includes utilization In the chemical Industry). Because of the high labor cost Involved In the installation of lead there has been a trend towards competitive materials In recent years. In domestic plumbing systems the use of copper drainage systems has supplanted, to a considerable degree, cast Iron pipe which requires caulking lead. Although materials cost of a copper system Is greater, labor savings In installation more than compensate this factor. The decreased usage of lead pipe In water service and drains In favor of competitive materials Is due to the labor Involved In making Joints by wiping and the loss of' the required skills by the plumbing trade.
Techniques for joining lead pipe and cast Iron pipe by wiping and caulking respectively were developed many decades ago end have not changed or been improved upon since then In any appreciable manner.
SCOPE
The objective of the contemplated program is to develop alternate methods for Joining of lead pipe and for lead caulking of cast Iron pipe with major emphasis placed on effecting labor savings. The resistance to labor saving techniques by the trades is fully realized, but in the future, as in the past. Improvements eventually will be accepted.
Caulking of soil pipe requires many time consuming operations. The bell and hub pipes are mated, oakum Is inserted and packed In the Joint, molten lead Is poured on top of the oakum to fill the bell (If pipes are horizontal an asbestos runner must be set up to contain the molten lead), and finally the lead Is caulked manually by hammer and caulking tools to achieve a tight joint. The bond and seal between the lead and cast Iron is mechanical, and caulking is required to overcome solidification shrinkage of the lead.
An analysis of the time and motion Involved In the procedure described above suggest the following possible avenues of approach.
1. Development of preformed oakum packing to minimize time of application.
2. Elimination of molten lead In preference to lead preforms (vhlch would do sway with runner set-up time In horizontal Joints and the necessity of a supply of molten lead).
3* Development of a suitable yarning and caulking tool to reduce time of these operations. Rils may be based on a portable electric tool with a flexible shaft and an eccentric impacting mechanism or Impacting mechanism such as is used in electric Impact wrenches.
An alternate procedure which may offer possibilities is redesign of bell and hub joint to eliminate necessity of oakum and facllltst'. vbe use of lead preforms and electrical caulking tools.
LIAO 11.21
-2-
An auxiliary point which vould help in the retention of cast iron pipe in plumbing vould be the development of a more labor saving method of cutting to desired length than the hammer, muscle and chisel technique. A possibility lies in the use of an electrical heating element which, through expansion and contraction by rapid cooling (water), vould rupture the cast iron, hopefully in a controlled manner.
A more thorough study of the factors involved in
a caullced
Joint will undoubtedly lead to other possible approaches than those given
above.
The Joint wiping procedure used in making lead pipe Joints almost defies description, and a description of it will not serve a useful purpose in developing alternate procedures. Basically it is a cored overlapping solder Joint which takes considerable skill and time to develop.
Several alternate Joining methods are suggested:
1. The use of the basic Joint with a solder preform and a controlled means of heating so that the solder will melt without melting the pipe.
2. The use of a butt Joint with fiber-reinforced solder preforms and controlled heat source.
3. The use of a butt Joint and lead sleeve with adhesive bonding. k. The use of mechanical compression fittings. 5* The use of mechanical compression fittings and solder or
adhesives in combination.
The present wiping procedure makes use of molten lead solder as a controlled heat source to insure penetration and vetting of the solder into the cored Joint without raising the lead pipe to the melting point. In view of this, the development of a portable controlled heat source may be the most significant factor in deriving alternate soldering methods.
The above suggestions are not to be considered as limiting other possible approaches.
ECONOMIC INCENTIVE
The application of lead in plumbing at present represents a large market which is well worth maintaining and provides a sizeable base on which small percentage increases vould result In substantial increased tonnage. Actually the consumption of caulking lead has been Increasing over a period of years on which statistics are available. 2b the period 1915-18 average annual consumption was 7,000 tons and the four year period averages have grown steadily to 51,000 tons in the 1956-59 period with setbacks only in the depression years 1930-39* In the period 1951 to 1959 average consumption was static, however, and it is felt that this la due to the pressure of competitive materials; definitely not to the lack of construction activity. It is apparent that less lead per dwelling is being utilized.
Success in these developments will make utilization of lead more competitive price-vise which is of utmost importance for maintaining or expanding markets in the construction industry where economies more than any other factor controls the choice of materials.

CERAMIC COATINGS FOR CEMENTITIOUS AND METALLIC SUBFACES
Introduction
Ceramic coatings in the form of glazes applied to ceramic bodies or cemented aggregates and porcelain enamels applied to metals have long been veil and favorably known for their durability. Their weather resistance is excellent and their ability to protect and to decorate the substrate to which they are applied is excellent. Broadening of the field of application for ceramic coatings containing high lead content might well be accomplished in a significant way if new techniques of application could be developed which might help to overcome certain inherent limitations.
One use, which might well be developed with new application techniques, would be glazing of concrete block and other types of structural materials containing free silica in the form of quartz. Most glazes, formulated for application to ceramic bodies, require a temperature in the neighborhood of 2000F for proper maturing. Ibis temperature is substantially higher than the conversion temperature of quartz to trydimite and cristobalite. This conversion is accompanied by a marked expansion in volume resulting in popping and rupture of the pieces containing the free quartz. Use of good low tempera ture glazes and means of application, without the necessity of heating the entire piece, might open the way for expanded use of lead in glazes for such materials as concrete block and the mortar joints between.
All are familiar with many of the uses of enamels on steel, aluminum, copper, etc. It is conceivable that the excellent protective values of ceramic coatings in the form of high lead enamels might well be used in structural steel for buildings and bridges and for guard rails along our nations highways if suitable cost can be achieved. A major factor in cost is the cost of application. Another factor to be considered is the cost of repair to damaged areas. Because of the excellent durability of ceramic coatings it would appear that recoating would be required only when and where actual damage has occurred and that routine maintenance could be eliminated.
Good low-temperature enamel and glaze compositions are available at this time. Development of new application techniques will be necessary, however, for their use. Such development might require modification of existing formulas to adapt them to newly developed application techniques. As a result both factors must be considered in any development work undertaken. The greatest emphasis would be upon application techniques. Secondary emphasis would be on formulation.
Application Techniques
It is felt that flame spraying and flame flowing techniques should be investigated in connection with this work. It appears that either method offers a possibility of fusion of the coating upon the surface without the necessity of applying excessive heat to the interior of the material being coated.
LIA01122
9/29/61 ULC-1
-2-
Lov fusion temperature of the coating and the ability to apply and remove beat rapidly appear to be necessary conditions.
Formulations of glazes or enamels vould most likely come within the range of 30 to 50$ of FbO in the final coating. Under flame spraying tech niques the fused coating composition would be sprayed directly onto the surface to be coated.
Flame flowing techniques vould Involve spraying the surface with a pre pared slip or slurry of the coating In water or other appropriate vehicle. Hie surface coating then would be fused in place by the application of heat in the form of a flame such as from a welding torch. It is conceivable that similar techniques, with some modification, would be used whether the sub strate is metallic or whether it is cementitious.
Structural members for bridge or building construction can be enameled by relatively standard methods following fabrication and before shipment to the construction site. It may be expected that some damage would be done to the coating in spots due to impact, welding, or insertion of bolts in the course of construction. Repair of such damage would be necessary and suitable technique must be available if enamels are to be used for such purposes. Flame spraying or flame flowing may very well be the answer to this problem.
Metal for guard rails has been coated with porcelain enamel in the fac tory. Methods of repairing damage in service, however, have not been available and it has been customary to repaint with the usual organic vehicle paints. Availability of suitable method of maintenance coating could very well greatly expand the use of porcelain enamels for this purpose.
Incentives
Ihere are many other potential uses for ceramic coatings on metals which are not presently being exploited. Ihese would include heavy machinery, elec trical transmission towers and equipment normally exposed to the elements. One property of high lead enamels of added value in electrical field Is that of high resistivity or good insulating values. Because of the combination of fac tors high lead ceramic coatings might find many new uses in areas of application in the electrical field if application techniques are developed which permit suitable repair.
Time Element
It should be possible to develop a reasonably good idea of the potential success of this investigation within perhaps one to two years. It is probable, however, that a development program might require a period of perhaps three to five years since there will be many directions of possible use and each would have to be investigated to some extent separately from the others.

potential Market
Any estimate of potential sale in terms of metallic lead equivalent resulting from successful completion of this research must consider the possibility that some avenues of potential use might prove to be fruitful while others may not be successful. It is felt, however, that the sum total of potential is very large and that, with all due allowance for full or partial success, we might mention a figure of 10,000 tons per year of metal equivalent resulting in due time from a successful conclusion of this development program.

DEVELOPMENT OF COMPOSITE LEAD-PLASTICS CABLE SHEATHING
INTRODUCTION
Little need be said about the competition from other materials which have caused a dractic decline in the use of lead for cable sheath ing. Price, availability of lead and corrosion problems in certain cases have markedly affected the lead market. In addition, the inability of lead cables to elongate to the same degree as other products on the market, has also impaired its competitive position. Furthermore, the question of economics and weight have also given the edge to other materials in competition with lead.
Plastics, in particular, have taken over a large portion of the cable sheathing market which, previously, had been supplied by lead. In many cases, however, plastics suffer seriously from permeability which causes subsequent corrosion of the conductors on the inside of the plastic sheathing. A further point to be considered is that the life span of plastics in cable sheathing applications has not been clearly established.
Experience has shewn that composites of lead and plastics do pro vide outstanding corrosion resistance, in that the lead shield insures impermeability. The development of improved methods for producing com posites of lead and plastics to be used as cable sheathing could there fore achieve extremely long life and offer economic benefits to the cable sheathing industry. We must also improve the ductility of lead sheathing so that it may be competitive with other cable designs. In addition to that ve must develop engineering and economic data to show the advantages in performance and life span of lead-plastics composites as compared to the other available materials. Cb the basis of the reasons outlined above it seems reasonable to assume that this study could greatly improve the position of lead in the cable sheathing industry.
SCOPE
For greatest effectiveness, we propose to subdivide this program into several specific areas which will be investigated separately. Initially, an engineering study will be made of the manufacturing pro cess for lead-plastics composites as compared to the manufacture of other materials to establish economic data and performance character istics. We would also want to conduct studies of corrosion resistance, fatigue characteristics, bending strength and over-all physical proper ties of the resulting composites.
LIA01125 Another major area would involve the study of methods to improve the ductility of the composite cable sheathing. It has been stated
9/29/61 ULM-5
-2-
that one of the major reasons far the loss of the missile orders for cable sheathing was that the present lead sheath cables could not meet the specifications requiring a 20$ elongation. It Is believed that a molecular bond between the plastic and the lead will greatly enhance the ductility of the composite sheathing and meet the specified 20$ elonga tion requirement. Investigations of other metals sheathed with plastics have Indicated that the ductility of the composite is greatly improved because of this molecular bonding and the distribution of stress over a wider area, thus reducing the danger of failure at a particular point. Studies will be made of composites of plastics and lead, hot bonded or adhesive bonded, and efforts will be directed toward achieving the desired ductility improvement. ECONOMIC INCENTIVE
The obvious alms of this program are to inhibit further losses of lead cable sheatlng markets and to improve the position of lead for cable sheathing In Australia, Europe and In other countries where our member companies are located. It Is believed that the plastics, steel, and aluminum composites will become Increasingly competitive In the European and Australian markets, unless we take steps to improve our own product. It should be recognized that the cable people have little incentive to promote research in this area and that the burden really rests with the lead industry to contribute Improvements in lead cable sheathing.

WORK 3IATEMEOT COMMERCIAL DEVELOEMENT CP LEAD ALLOY SYSTEMS
INTRODUCTION
Since July of 1958* the Armour Research Foundation at Chicago, Illinois, has been carrying on a program of basic research designed to improve the existing state of knowledge concerning the properties of lead alloys, and to develop new lead alloys superior to those now In use. It was intended to do this work under closely controlled laboratory conditions In order to study the details of the necessary techniques of preparation and, of course, the fundamental properties of the alloys produced.
During the three years of activity. Armour has prepared and tested seme 15 binary systems, and some 26 ternary systems containing lead. In the binary group, data have been obtained on (usually) 5 percentage compo sitions for each of the 15 systems. Determinations of tensile strength, elongation, and hardness have been made for most of the alloys, and other correlative figures are also available. Hie vital importance of minute amounts of oxygen in the alloys has been discovered, end quantitative results have been presented. The Armour program will continue at least until May of 1962 and, no doubt, further findings of value will be forthcoming.
SCOPE
With a wealth of basic information on which to proceed, it is in order to select those alloys which offer the best physical properties, and to establish a program for their development toward commercial uses.
From a total of approximately 100 individual compositions which appear in the Armour reports, the following systems show the most promise:
Binary Systems
Ternary Systems
Fb/Ca Eb/Ba Fb/Te Fb/Sb Pb/Sn Fb/Ag
(above 0.5 atomic $) (above 0.5 atomic $) (above 0.015 atomic )
Fb/Sn/Ca Eb/Ba/Ca
The binary alloys of Eb with Ca, with Ba, and with Te have shown outstanding tensile strengths in the composition ranges listed above. Like wise, the ternary alloys of R> with Sn and Ca, and Fb with Ba and Ca are in this category. While the binary alloys of Fb with Sb, with Sn, and with Ag have long been recognized and used, it is believed that opportunities for further commercial development still exist.
LAIOl127 Although eight alloy systems have been listed as exsmples, lu is not the intent of this work statement to limit the scope of the proposed program to these only. On the contrary, the Armour reports will be made available to prospective contractors, under certain confidential conditions, so that their technical staffs may review the data and make their own suggestions as to which of the Armour alloys will be specifically developed by their proposals. The information provided by the Armour findings will
-2-
be made available so that advantage may he taken of (1) the details of the alloying techniques, (2) the precautions to he observed against contamination, especially from unplanned oxygen pick-up, (3) the quantitative evaluation of the physical properties already accomplished, and (4) the consideration of the theoretical aspects of the work, vhicb Armour has frequently discussed.
While the preceding paragraph permits the prospective contractors seme reasonable latitude in vhich to introduce their own original ideas, it must he understood that it is the objective of this project to select the commercially exploitable alloys and then to concentrate on their development toward practical ends. The program must not stray from this goal of practical application.
Having decided upon a group of, say, six alloy systems that seem to offer potentially superior advantages in the engineering field, both technically and economically, proposals for further experimental production and testing of these alloys will he Invited. It is expected that a suitable program will run for more than one year.
Among the information which will be required, the following areas are suggested:
General Information
Production Methods
Castsbillty
Production Costs
Machinability
Composition Limits
Extrudability
Methods of Analyses
Microstructure
Physical Tests
Tensile Strength
Creep
Yield Strength
Corrosion Resistance
Elongation
Recrystallization Temperature
Hardness (Cold and Hot)
Grain Size
The particular areas in which the alloys may best he utilized must also he designated. Ghese might be tank linings, cable sheathing, noncorrodlble electrodes for batteries and other electrolytic processes, decorative castings or extrusions, building supports, and general protection of structures against corrosive atmospheres or liquids. An interpretation of the physical properties of the alloys and their correlation to the several areas of application must he developed and clearly presented to the consumer for consideration.
An Important requirement of this program is to discard the tired complacence and to inaugurate a fresh, novel, and enthusiastic approach. In addition to technical competence, stimulating leadership will he a factor in our choice.

ECONOMIC VALUE TO THE INDUSTRY The unique corrosion resistance of lead to chemical attack has always
been the metal's primary virtue; In contrast, Its relatively poor mechanical strength has been Its principal defect. An alloy, high in lead in the Inter ests of low cost, which will retain lead's lmminity to corrosion but also acquire Increased structural strength, would certainly be welcomed by the Industry. Should such an alloy be developed, end Its superior qualities be demonstrated by accelerated service tests, its market Is assured.
It Is futile at this stage to speculate on the monetary profit to be derived. When its production costs and its properties will be known, reasonable comparisons with competing materials may then be made, a selling price comparable with the competition determined, and the over-all economic benefits can then be Intelligently calculated.

WORK STATEMENT LEAD COMPOUNDS IN ADHESIVES
The use of adhesive "bonding is becoming Increasingly popular in a wide range of industries. The metal working industries are becoming aware that modern techniques require alternatives to soldering, brazing, welding, rivetting, etc. The building industry is interested in more sophisticated techniques as their need for automation becomes apparent. Traditional methods of joining in the ceramics industry are inadequate while the vast plywood industry is continually searching for new bonding agents and this Is particularly so when one considers the possible need to band lead and other metals to the wood to improve acoustical properties and for other reasons.
Scope
An appraisal should be made as to where there is the need for adhesives of the characteristics which could be expected from a suitably formulated lead containing adhesive.
The following industries should receive attention:
Ceramics - (bond for cement blocks, low firing frits)
Building -
Plywood bonding (to wood and metal). Tiles to plastics, metal, etc. Plumbing Chemical construction, acid resisting bonds.
The following characteristics should receive attention:

of adhesives. Development of low firing frits for ceramic bonding.
Incentive
The above applications are in many caaes related to industries which consume very large quantities of materials.

EXHIBIT "C" WORK STATEMENT IMPROVEMENT OF FIBROUS MATERIALS BY LEAD CHEMICAL TREATMENTS
Introduction
Fibrous materials, both natural and synthetic, suffer from exposure to weather and are attacked by ultra violet rays by bacteria and by insects. They are also sensitive to creasing, fire and abrasion, and their retention of color and of fiber strength needs improvement.
Work has been done by the Department of Agriculture at their own laboratories in New Orleans as well as their Texas Womens University. This research has shown that lead oxides and lead carbonates has application in this area and has significantly contributed to improved performance of cotton products.
With regard to other materials, however, much improvement is still needed. Wool and the synthetics could conceivably be improved by treatment with other lead chemicals as well as by the ones investigated in the Depart ment of Agriculture program. There is great interest in the improvement of fabrics of all types and, in view of the favorable results obtained in the Department of Agriculture program, further work in this area is certainly indicated.
Scope
The objectives of the program would be to continue the efforts initially undertaken by the Department of Agriculture and to investigate other lead chemicals, organic as well as inorganic, for improving the per formance of fibrous materials. There has been indication that lead borate and lead hydroxide can improve cotton used for ducking and tent materials by improving the weathering, mildew and flame resistance of the cloth. Investi gation would also be made of the contribution of lead to wool and to synthetic materials to improve their physical and chemical properties. It would also be planned to consider the materials developed in our program on organolead compounds for the applications mentioned above.
Economic Incentive
During i960, the consumption of cotton was 2.2 million tons, consumption of rayon and acetates was 600 thousand tons, wool was 200 thousand tons and consumption of silk and various synthetic fibers was 500 thousand tons, giving us a grand total of 3.5 million tons. The market for fabrics of all types is tremendous and offers a substantial potential for lead in this area. If we could introduce lead to the extent of l/2 of 1$ in this area, we would achieve a total consumption of over 16,000 tons of lead. Furthermore, the benefits to our industry would be a continuous consumption of lead which would never return to the market, because the lead would become a total loss when applied to fabrics.

CBTEBMIHATIOW OF SURFACE TEK8I0W OF LEADAHDITS ALIOYS
Introduction
The considerable variation found In the reported information on the surface tension of lead Is due to variations in over-all purity as veil as in the specific impurities (1). The present availability of high purity, zone refined lead makes it highly desirable that this important constant be determined vith accuracy. The limited data on the effect of small amounts of alloying elements on the surface tension of lead are based on the additions to metal of 99 99$ purity, and hence should be repeated. An exact knowledge of the extent to which various alloying or impurity are surface active will permit much greater understanding of surface corrosion and will have bearing on the problems involved in casting thin sections.
Scope
The scope of this program comprises a fundamental study of the surface tension of molten lead and is directed toward three primary objectives:
1. Accurate determination of the surface tension of high purity lead and its temperature coefficient.
2. Investigation of the changes in the surface tension of pure lead caused by low levels of alloying elements.
3. Detailed investigation of those elements found to be particularly surface-active.
Suggested Approach
Probably the most direct and least troublesome approach to the measure ment of the surface tension of lead and its alloys (coupled with a simulta neous density measurement) is through the bubble pressure method. This method (1-4) consists in measuring the maximum pressure attained in bubbles formed by an inert gas beneath the surface of the metal, and the methods of calculation may be found in the references. The major problem in the application to lead is in finding a capillary tube material which will not contaminate the lead or be eroded rapidly by it. High purity silica or boron nitride are suggested. With proper control of capillary size and arrangement of pressure read-out system, the method is capable of high pre cision.
Economic Value
As a fundamental research program, the economic value to the Industry
cannot be estimated directly. It is certain that increased knowledge of the surface-active species which may be found in lead, will, for example, greatly
broaden the understanding of surface corrosion and hence of reproducibility of weathering colors, etc.

CORROSION OP LEAD IN VARIOUS MEDIA
Introduction
Lead and same of its alloys have been extensively used in the chemical industry because of their high resistance to corrosion in many media. However, many new chemical compounds have been synthesized in recent years, many new solvent systems have been developed, and all too frequently we lack the necessary information about the performance of lead in these new areas. Since we do not have adequate data on the effectiveness of lead for these new applications, we have little opportunity to recommend the use of lead in this area. The Lead Industries Association receives numerous inquiries relating to the applicability of lead in various chemical systems and they are unable to provide an answer because satisfactory data are not available.
If we ore to promote the use of lead for these new applications, we must be in a position to provide ample and competent data to accentuate the advantages of lead as compered to its competitive materials, such as nickel alloys, stainless steel, aluminum, and plastics.
The program would be administered in several phases, and the findings of each would be used to determine the scope of the succeeding phase. First, a survey would be mode of the industry and of the literature to accumulate exhaustive data on the performance of lead in various chemical media and under various exposure conditions. These data would then be assembled and incorporated into a manual, and node available for distribution to industry.
Secondly, we would establish a spool test, either directly by the Lead Industries Association or in collaboration with the International Nickel Company which is conducting similar investigations. A spool con taining samples of various lead alloys would be sent to the organization requesting information on lead for a particular application. The lead spool would then be exposed to the corrosive media in question, under whatever conditions the lead night conceivably be employed in actual pro duction, and data would be established for each specific use. These technical data would then be accumulated by us and filed away for future reference.
In addition, we would like to initiate a contract with a research laboratory, at a predetermined dollar maximum, to perform an open end study and to undertake high spot, independent evaluations of the corrosion behavior of lead in new applications. Prior to making such tests, we would send out field questionnaires or, if the potential market Justified it, we would send an engineer to obtain factual data on the system in which lead was to be employed, and to determine such factors as gaseous atmospheres, temperatures, pressures, minor contaminating materials, etc. Once these data were established, then the high spot laboratory work would be undertaken to determine whether or not lead had potential application in the specific area.

Economic Incentive
Although no economic data are available in this area, the i960 con sumption of lead in the chemical Industries nay be estimated vith fair accuracy at 4,000 tons of lead pipe and 16,000 tons of lead sheet. This gives us a total average consumption of 20,000 tons per year.
There are many competitive materials to lead in the chemical indus tries, and the suppliers of plastics and corrosion resistant metals are sparing no expense in furnishing potential users vith technical data end know-how concerning their products.
If we are to retain our market for lead and expand its use in the chemical industry, we should offer no less than the suppliers of competitive materials, and promptly initiate a program to study the corrosion resistance of lead in various media.

INTRODUCTION
It is estimated that lead collapsible tubes vlll consume 96OO tons of lead in 1961, and statements have been made that this consumption could grow to 20,000 tons in the near future. This is based on the general trend of tooth paste manufacturers to formulate fluoridated tooth paste following the lead of Proctor and Gamble's CREST tooth paste which, due to the American Dental Association endorsement, is a leading seller. Aluminum tubes and plastic dispensers are generally unsuitable for packaging fluoridated tooth paste because the former suffers from corrosion and the latter absorbs the flavoring oils which change the taste of the product.
The ERP staff was recently approached by the Bradley-Sun Division of the American Can Company concerning the high incidence of cracking of lead tubes from deformation during use. They along with Victor, Wheeling and Wirz supply Proctor and Gamble with tubes, and Proctor and Gamble claim that 1*0# incident of cracking occurs which they would like to see reduced to 10$ or less. Their sudden concern apparently stems from competition entering the field of fluoridated tooth paste, one of which cliams that their product will be packaged in aluminum tubes which normally do not crack. Proctor and Gamble as well as the tube manufacturers would like to see the cracking problem solved, and it appears that our industry stands to lose a portion of this market if it is not and stands to gain a larger portion if it is. Alternate packaging materials are being sought, but Proctor and Gamble at least would like to continue the use of lead tubes if possible according to a representative of this company.
SCOPE
At present OCMINCO, National Lead Company, St. Joseph Lead Company, American Smelting & Refining Company and Anaconda Company, through representatives of these companies who are on the Lead Metallurgical Subcommittee, are evaluating tubes furnished by Bradley-Sun which were taken from various steps in the manufacturing process. Through this evaluation the mechanism by which tubes fail is being sought with the view towards recommending other tube alloys which will overcome the high cracking incidence, or, if manufacturing defects are responsible, to recommend other practices. Armour Research has also been requested to examine the tubes on the LF-4-60 program.
Pending the outcome of this investigation it may be necessary to
initiate an alloy development and evaluation program; hence the matter
is being included in a work statement for consideration at the budget
meetings. The Bradley*Sun Division has offered their cooperation in
evaluating recommended alloys.

It is recommended that either a formal contingency fund be included in the 1962 Budget or formal approval be given to draw on the Reserve Fund to cover possible expenditures in this area.

ECONOMIC INCENTIVE
By reasons given in the introduction, the consumption of lead in collapsible tubes may decrease from the present substantial level if the incidence of cracking is not lowered. Conversely consumption may increase significantly if this problem can be overcome.
