Prov nr. 33 - FOA Analysis Report
AI-Generated Summary
This report from the Swedish National Defence Research Institute (FOA) identifies carbon samples received on June 27, 1947, as industrial carbon rods for galvanic elements. The samples include a marked rod and fragments of a hollow cylinder.
This document is a laboratory report from the Swedish National Defence Research Institute (FOA), dated June 27, 1947, regarding the analysis of physical samples designated as 'Prov nr. 33'. The report details two types of carbon materials received by the institute. The first sample is a cylindrical carbon rod, approximately 18 mm in diameter and 95 mm in length. It features a smooth surface with four symmetrical rows of small rectangular depressions, each 2 mm by 1 mm, with a depth of 0.5 mm. The rod bears an imprinted text: 'HLS - DR ALB. LESSING - ELEMENTKOHLE'. The report concludes that the rod is a product of a continuous manufacturing process, likely involving a feeding mechanism through an annealing furnace. The second set of samples consists of multiple pieces of carbon with a rougher surface, identified as remnants of a hollow cylinder with an outer diameter of approximately 55 mm, designed to fit the primary carbon rod. The report concludes that these items are carbon rods intended for use in galvanic elements, based on standard chemical-technical literature and dictionaries.
Med "Elementkohle" menas i gängse kemisk-teknisk litteratur och enligt ordböcker ett kol avsett för galvaniska element.
