Investigations are reported on: creep properties of annnealed Zircaloy-2 and -3 at high temperatures; burst strength of welded Zircaloy-2 and Zr tubes; roomtemperature electrical properties of U0/sub 2/-U0/sub2/ (NO/sub 3/)/sub 2/. 6H/sub 2/0 specimens; corrosion of 304 ELC stainless steel in chloride- contaminated HNO/sub 3/; corrosion rates for U in various electrolytes vs. applied voltage; fatigue-tests of Inconel at 1600 F; oxidation of Nb-Zr alloy in lOOO C wet air; U-Zr-Mo syatem phase diagram; corrosion of Ta in Na-flow loops; creep and stress-rupture of Ta at 1200 F in He; and pressure bonding of Zircaloy-2 clad compartmented U0/sub 2/ feel plates.
