Effects of Oxygen and Surface Treatment on the Corrosion of Stainless Steel in Superheated Steam (open access)

Effects of Oxygen and Surface Treatment on the Corrosion of Stainless Steel in Superheated Steam

Exploratory corrosion tests performed with stainless steels in steam at 650°C, 600 psi suggested a sharp dependence of corrosion behavior on surface treatment of the samples.

Neutron Radiography : A 1962 Progress Report (open access)

Neutron Radiography : A 1962 Progress Report

Since the relative absorption in materials for thermal neutrons and X-rays is very different the use of neutron radiography as a complimentary inspection method to X-radiography has many potential advantages.

Plutonium Fuel Programs at Argonne National Laboratory (open access)

Plutonium Fuel Programs at Argonne National Laboratory

Most of the plutonium fuel programs at ANL are aimed at the utilization of plutonium in fast reactor power systems. The principal incentive and instrument for the development of plutonium-bearing fuels is the second loading of KBR-II.

Theory and Some Applications of Pulsed Current Fields to the Problems of Nondestructive Testing

The velocity associated with a current field propagating in a good conductor that is of interest for the purposes of nondestructive testing is termed the "signal velocity."

The Corrosion of 1100 Aluminum in Oxygen Saturated Water at 70° C (open access)

The Corrosion of 1100 Aluminum in Oxygen Saturated Water at 70° C

In oxygen-saturated distilled water at 70°, the rate and amount of corrosion during short exposure are influenced by experimental conditions. One noteworthy effect is that contamination of the water by the reaction increases the corrosion rate.

Neutron Radiography as an Inspection Technique (open access)

Neutron Radiography as an Inspection Technique

The differences in absorption characteristics between neutrons and X-rays have been pointed out by a number of investigators. Such inspection situations would include the possibility of greater radiographic discrimination for certain materials, the inspection of heavy metals with reduced exposure times, and the relatively easy inspection of light materials by themselves or even when they are in an assembly with much heavier materials.
