TEMPERATURE DEPENDENCE OF TAFEL SLOPE IN THE FORMATION OF VERY THIN ANODIC OXIDE FILMS ON NIOBIUM (open access)

TEMPERATURE DEPENDENCE OF TAFEL SLOPE IN THE FORMATION OF VERY THIN ANODIC OXIDE FILMS ON NIOBIUM

A kinetic study was made of the formation of very thin anodic oxide films on niobium at constant current over the temperature range --10 to 70 deg C. Formation voltages were limited to the range below the oxygen evolution potential to eliminate possible interaction of an electronic component of the current with the measured formation field. It was found that the measured temperature dependence of Tafel slope agreed with that predicted by the theory of Mott and Cabrera. Using this theory, a zero field interfacial barrier height of 1.19 ev and a half-jump distance of 2.40 A were obtained. Values of the differential formation field are reported at current densities of 1000, 100, 10, and 1 mu a/ cm/sup 2/ at ten degree intervals over the temperature range studied. (auth)

The Transfer of Plutonium Hexafluoride in the Vapor Phase (open access)

The Transfer of Plutonium Hexafluoride in the Vapor Phase

Plutonium hexafluoride is decomposed by heat, by its alpha radiation, and by reactions with most materials of construction. Laboratory experiments were performed to investigate means by which plutonium losses due to these reactions can be minimized during vapor-phase transfers of the compound. The experiments showed that plutonium hexafluoride vapor could be transferred satisfactorily through well fluorinated nickel equipment in a stream of fluorine or helium. The decomposition product of plutonium hexafluoride was refluorinated at 250 deg C by fluorine. (auth)

Metallurgical Examination of HRT Leak Detector Tubing and Flanges (open access)

Metallurgical Examination of HRT Leak Detector Tubing and Flanges

After several failures had occurred in the HRT leak detector system, several lengths of this tubing were removed for metallurgical examination. The tubing was of type 304 stainless steel and was 1/4" in diameter with a 0.065 wall. The tubing had been purchased as three different lots, the first in 45 ft. lengths and the other two as standards lengths. Tubing from the first lot was used primarily for the shield penetration and, therefore, sections of it are present in all lines of the system. It appears that chloride contamination entered the system in a portion of the first lot of tubing used for the shield penetration. The exact source of the chloride cannot be determined, but after considering the results and visiting the manufacturer's plant, it appears most likely the contamination was during the manufacturing process.

Coal Geology of the White Oak Quadrangle, Magoffin and Morgan Counties, Kentucky (open access)

Coal Geology of the White Oak Quadrangle, Magoffin and Morgan Counties, Kentucky

From abstract: The White Oak quadrangle lies near the western edge of the eastern Kentucky coalfield and includes approximately 59 square miles of parts of Magoffin and Morgan Counties, Ky. The outcropping rocks are equivalent to most of the Breathitt formation of Pennsylvanian age. The regional southeast dip of the rocks is interrupted by the Irvine-Paint Creek fault, the Caney anticline, the Grape Creek syncline, and the Johnson Creek fault.
