Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a nonevaporation-type getter alloy which can be used for general purposes and has freedom from danger to environment or safety. SOLUTION: This getter alloy is a nonevaporation-type getter alloy containing one or plural components selected from zirconium, cobalt, yttrium, lanthanum, and rare earth elements. Moreover, this getter alloy has a compositional range enclosed with a polygon defined by the following points (a), (b), (c), and (d) in the ternary diagram of weight composition: (a) Zr 81%-Co 9%-A 10%; (b) Zr 68%-Co 22%-A 10%; (c) Zr 74%-Co 24%-A 2%; (d) Zr 88%-Co 10%-A 2%, where A is a component selected from yttrium, lanthanum, rare earth elements, and mixtures thereof.
Abstract:
The low-pressure mercury vapor discharge lamp has a light-transmitting discharge vessel (2) enclosing, in a gastight manner, a discharge space (1) provided with a filling of mercury and a rare gas. The discharge vessel comprises discharge means (8) for maintaining a discharge in the discharge space (1). The discharge vessel comprises dispenser means (20) for controllably dispensing hydrogen into the discharge space. The hydrogen gas pressure is in the range between 10-3 Pa and 10 Pa. Preferably, the hydrogen gas pressure is in the range between 10-2 Pa and 1 Pa. A low-pressure mercury vapor discharge lamp with a good maintenance is obtained.

Abstract:
In a discharge lamp comprising a discharge vessel (1) enclosed with space by an outer bulb (4), a hydrogen getter (6) is used comprising more than 70 % by weight of Y and one or more Y alloys from Al and/or Mn. The getter (6) effectively removes hydrogen from the outer bulb (4).
Abstract:
A process manufacturing devices (21, 21") that carry an active material is described, based on the continuous deposition of a strip of low-melting alloy in the liquid state on a ribbon (1") of a metal net (12) or a micro-perforated and stretched sheet metal (12) , which surface has been previously treated , for example by means of deoxidation, and preferably prepared for the successive cutting in single components or rather devices (21, 21' ) with active material. The deposition can occur by immersion into laminar waver on into a constant jet, by spraying of small drops or by liquid dispensation.
