The Rolling of Thorium Rod (open access)

The Rolling of Thorium Rod

Report discussing the rolling of thorium rods. Abstract: "Thorium rods, 1-7/16 inch in diameter, were rolled from Ames castings. The billets were roughed down in diamond-grooved rolls and finished in hand-rounding rolls. Remelted chips as well as primary-metal castings were rolled, and both yielded satisfactory rods. The surface quality of the rods was generally excellent, and the machined slugs were free of seams."

Alloys of Uranium with Zirconium, Chromium, Columbium, Vanadium, and Molybdenum (open access)

Alloys of Uranium with Zirconium, Chromium, Columbium, Vanadium, and Molybdenum

Abstract: Information on five uranium binary alloy systems has been surveyed. These systems are the alloys of uranium with zirconium, chromium, columbium, vanadium, and molybdenum. The equilibrium diagrams are discussed, and where available, data have been included on diffusion studies, cladding experiments, and mechanical properties.

Low-Melting Alloys for Cast Fuel Elements (open access)

Low-Melting Alloys for Cast Fuel Elements

The following report follows an investigation made to determine the composition of uranium-rich ternary eutectic alloys most suitable for reactor application in the as-cast condition. These determinations were made based metallographic examination and thermal analysis of as-cast alloys.
