The first four mem-bers of the series all bent parallel, and in doing so developed noapparent flaws. The fifth steel marks a pronounced change, andbreaks at the comparatively small angle of 30 degrees. Yet thecontent of nickel in E is only .7 per cent greater than in D, asteel which bent parallel without sign of flaw. There is a differ-ence of . 21 per cent in the content of manganese, and a very slightone of .02 per cent in carbon. Such differences, however, canhardly affect the issue, and the change in properties must be Fia. 1.—Bending 5 10 15 Nickel per cent. due to nickel. Further increments of nickel decrease the bend-ing angle until a minimum is reached at a content of percent. Still further increments of nickel mark the gradual returnof ductility, as shown by angles 10, 60 and 180 degrees for steelscontaining respectively , and per cent of last steel, containing nearly 20 per cent nickel, not only bent parallel, but was afterwards closed up, a procedure whichdeveloped no visible flaw.
