COMMENTARY

Abstract

ULTRASONICS are now widely used in industries for such purposes as drilling, cleaning, thickness testing, emulsification and dispersion, signalling and measurement, and research is being pushed through in an incredible range of industries to utilise even further the seemingly infinite versatility of the process. For the corrosion‐minded the most important uses of ultrasonics lie within the fields of cleaning and thickness testing. In a booklet just published by the D.S.I.R., ‘Using Ultrasonics’, R. Hamilton reviews the newer applications of this practical industrial tool which relies on the generation of sound waves at over 16,000 cycles/sec.
