COMPATIBILITY TESTS OF VARIOUS MATERIALS IN MOLTEN SODIUM
Compatibility tests of materials in contact in sodium under 500 psi pressure were conducted for 716 hr at 1500 deg F. Of the diffusion couples stadied, the Inconel-berylliam system showed the largest amount of alloying. The reaction between molybdenum and beryllium resulted in the formation of two compounds, both of which were severely cracked in several areas. The molybdenum- Inor-8 and the Inor-8-type 316 stainless steel interfaces showed little alloying. A compatibility test system was prepared by placing 1/4 x 1/2 x 1 in specimens of Inconel, beryllium, molybdenam, Incr-8, and type 316 stainless steel together in Sodium. (J.E.D.)
