REFRACTORIES FOR URANIUM REDUCTION

Journal Article · · American Ceramic Society Bulletin (U.S.)
OSTI ID:4015215
Commercially available refractory materials were investigated not only for inertness toward the reactants and products of the reduction of uranium tetrafluoride by magnesium but also for contamination of the metal by undesirable impurities. High purity magnesia-alumina spinel was found to be a satisfactory material for fabrication into containers for the reduction process. (auth)
