The Resistance of Various Bearing Materials to Chemical Attack by Nitric Acid and Uranyl Nitrate Hexahydrate (open access)

The Resistance of Various Bearing Materials to Chemical Attack by Nitric Acid and Uranyl Nitrate Hexahydrate

The purpose of this study has been to evaluate the chemical resistance of various bearing materials to solutions of nitric acid and uranyl nitrate hexahydrate with views toward selecting the best material to be used as bearings in Purex submerged rotating equipment.

Development of a Welding Process for Spire-Can Fuel Elements (open access)

Development of a Welding Process for Spire-Can Fuel Elements

The components for the present aluminum clad, Al-Si bonded, internally and externally cooled (I & E), uranium fuel elements are composed of impact extruded cans and spire caps as shown in Figure 1. This type of component requires two impact extrusions; however, in December, 1957, J. E. Ruffin proposed another design of component in which there was only one impact extrusion. For this component, Figure 2, the spire was impact extruded as a part of the can.

Gas Plated Coatings on Metals and Alloys : Progress Report No. 1 (open access)

Gas Plated Coatings on Metals and Alloys : Progress Report No. 1

The object of this project is to conduct studies on the coating of metals and alloys by the gas plating process. Coatings to be studied consist of chromium on copper; alloys of nickel chromium on copper; molybdenum on stainless steel and Inconel; chromium on stainless steel and Inconel; and tungsten and molybdenum and their carbides on stainless steel and Inconel.

Solution of Experimental Breeder Reactor Slugs (open access)

Solution of Experimental Breeder Reactor Slugs

From abstract: "A full-scale, always-safe, metal dissolver for Experimental Breeder Reactor fuel was designed, built, and installed for test operation. It was found that the dissolver operated satisfactorily, and feasible operating procedures were established for the dissolution of bare, or jacketed, EBR slugs. Minor modifications of the dissolver design have been required to accomodate [sic] a modified EBR slug, but it is believed that this will not significantly affect its operating characteristics."
