Peculiar Metal Melting Under Aluminum Oxide Pressure
A note by H. Bischof of Wiesbaden reports metals immersed in dried pure aluminum oxide and heated to high temperatures melt far above normal. Silver rods that melt at 1830 F stay unmelted until 5730 F, and palladium melting at 2730 F shows no yield by 2900 F. The oxide's contraction on heating appears to prevent expansion and delays melting.
