Bennett of the Department of Ceramic Engineering reports the development by him and Associate Professor William J. Plankenhom of new ceramic coating materials while working on research under a contract with the United States Air Force. These coatings have_ been found to protect alloy metal from high temperatures for long periods of time. The United States Air Force requests that appropriate patent coverage be obtained to protect the public interest. The Air Force will assume the full expense of securing a patent. Since this discovery is a result of research work done under a contract with the United States Air Force and since the Air Force will use the results for the public good, the University Research Board recommends that the rights to this discovery be released to the Air Force. Two previous discoveries in the same field have been released by the University to the United States Government. I concur in the recommendation that this discovery be released to the United States Air Force. On motion of Mr. Grange, this discovery was released to the United States Air Force.
