Title: PREPARATION OF COMPACTS MADE FROM URANIUM AND BERYLLIUM BY SINTERING

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4068714

A powder metallurgical method for making high-density compacts of uranium and beryllium is reported. Powdered UBe/sub 9/ and powdered Be are blended, compacted, and then sintered by rapidly heating to a temperature of approximately 1220 to 1280 deg C in an inert atmosphere.
