FUEL BEARING FIBERGLAS IN ALUMINUM BASE FUEL ELEMENTS. Monthly Progress Letter No. 16 for Period September 1, 1960-September 30, 1960

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4115708
Progress is reported on a program to develop procedures which utllize aluminum-coated, fuel-bearing Fiberglas as core material in aluminum-clad fuel elements. The fabrication of compacts by hot-pressing and rolling is reported. Tensile tests of as-hot pressed, uranium-bearing Fiberglas were conducted. Stress-rupture tests were conducted on fuel plates clad with Alclad 606l and Alclad 5l54. (W.L.H.)
