39. 2/Metal composite wires are consistent with the results presented here.
40. All wires in this study were drawn by HyperTech Research, Inc., Columbus, OH.
41. 2/Ga(20) = 44%.
42. 2/Ga(20) = 81%(billet) 63%(wire). In general, lower melting point metals were found to pack in the billet at a slightly higher packing fraction %.
