FUNDAMENTAL AND APPLIED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT IN METALLURGY. Progress Report for December 1958
Beryllium Metallurgy. Tests on dimensional stability, resistance to cracking of the cladding, and deformation at elevated temperature were performed on coextruded, Beclad, U-2% Zr alloy. By x-ray-diffraction techniques, a preliminary investigation was made of the phases present in cast Be-10 at.% Ge, Be-10 at.% Mn, and Be--10 at.% Cr alloys and extruded Be-0.15 at.% Y, Be-0.5 at.% Mn, Be-0.15 at.% Li, and Be-0.15 at.% Cd. Uranium Metal lurgy. Castings were made of Th-U alloys in heated and unheated graphite molds, corrosion, metallographic and bond strength specimens of U-2 wt.% Zr clad with Zircaloy-2 have been prepared and are undergoing heat treatment. Thorium Metallurgy. Data are presented on the corrosion behavior of Th - Zr alloys in high temperature water. Zirconium Metallurgy. The twelve arc-melted Zr base alloys listed in previous reports have been hot rolled in the beta region at 1650 deg F. (W.L.H.)
