The Effect of Fluoride on the Corrosion of Stainless Steel in the Presence of Excess Al+3 Ion (open access)

The Effect of Fluoride on the Corrosion of Stainless Steel in the Presence of Excess Al+3 Ion

Technical report detailing corrosion tests of Type 347 stainless steel for two weeks in boiling uranyl nitrate, sulfuric acid media, with and without additions of Al+3 and F-1 in a 2:1 mole ratio. The results of these tests show that although the presence of aluminum greatly reduces the deleterious effect of fluoride, the corrosion rates are still three to four times greater than when no fluoride is present.

Enrichment of Uranium 236 (open access)

Enrichment of Uranium 236

From abstract: "Neutron-irradiated uranium was electromagnetically separated to provide enrichment of the isotope of mass 236. The final isotopic abundance of U 236 was determined to be 95% in 1800 milligrams of uranium. Useful by-products of the program were 22 grams of 25% U 236 and 1100 grams of 99.7% U 235. These enriched materials have been made available for use on Atomic Energy Commission projects. Possible application of this separation process to recovery of the fuel from the MTR reactor is described."
