Abstract

The feasibility of designing a graphite -carbon dioxide ionization chamber for the absolute measurement of the carbon dose rate from a pure gamma field up to 10/sup 10/ erg/g/hr is discussed. There are insufficient data on neutron response to judge the feasibility of using the ion chamber in mixed fields with large neutron components. (auth)

GRAPHITE TECHNOLOGY. Period covered April 1, 1957-September 1958

Bradstreet, S.W.

The two-fold purpose of this investigation has been to correlate the properties of smalls multicrystalline graphite specimens with the factors believed to influence them, and to assess the probability that graphite can conform to engineering specifications. The technique of differential thermal analysis was found applicable to investigating binder pyrolysis. Three promising binder materials were selected for future work: coal-tar pitchs furfuryl alcohol, and phenolberzaldebyde. The most illuminating properties cf experimental mixtures were found to bei apparent (water immersion) densitys dynamic (sonic) meduluss volume electrical resistance, and flexural strength. Measurements of medulus, strength, and thermal expansion have been carried out tomore »« less
HIGH TEMPERATURE SOLID DRY FILM LUBRICANTS. Period Covered April 1, 1957 to December 31, 1957

Lavik, M.T.

Solid dry film lubricants appear to be the answer for many high temperature lubrication problems. However, the wear-life of these fllms is dependent upon a large number of factors which complicate the choice of a particular lubricant film and its proper application. This report describes three phases of work directed toward the development of high temperature solid dry film lubricants. Parametric study of wear-life factors: The fractional factorial design of experiments (total of five) is used to evaluate the effect of ten factors upon the wear-life of several solid film lubricents. The factors studied are environmental temperature, bearing load, substratemore »« less
GRAPHITE-BASED MATERIALS FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE APPLICATIONS. Period covered: 12 month period through July 31, 1957

Janes, M.

Recent aerodynamic developments require a material which will endure under conditions of high heat flux with consequent high surface temperatures and high flow of an oxidizing gas relative to a body of the material. Surface temperature rise may be quite rapid, so that the material must possess resistance to thermal shock. Graphite has outstanding high temperature strength, a high sublimation temperature, and excellent thermal shock resistance in comparison to other agglomerate bodies. However, it is quite reactive with oxygen or other oxidizing gas at high temperatures and high relative gas flow rates. The results of a first year of amore »« less
A STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF SOME VARIABLES ON THE SEPARATION OF YTTRIUM FROM RARE EARTH CONCENTRATES WITH HYDROXYETHYLETHYLENEDIAMINETRIACETIC ACID. Report No. 168. Period covered: November 21, 1957 to April 23, 1958

Morton, J.R.

The effect of four variables (concentration of the eluant, pH of the eluant, band lengths eluted, and flow rate) was studied in connection with the separation of yttrium from the other rare earths. As the concentration of the eluant was increased, the yield of 98% Y/sub 2/O/sub 3/ and the transport time decreased. The yield of 98% Y/sub 2/O/sub 3/ increased when the separation was carried through more band lengths while the transport time remained constant. The yield of 98% Y/sub 2/O/sub 3/ and the transport time decreased with increasing flowrates. The yield of 98% Y/sub 2/O/sub 3/ and themore »« less
MUTATION RATES AT SPECIFIC LOCI IN DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER. Period Covered: November 1960 through April 1961. Supplementary Report for March and April 1961

Hannah-Alava, A.

Progress is reported in studies on the genetic effects of x radiation in Drosophila. Data are presented on radiation damage, as measured by mutation rates at specific visible autosomal loci, of male germ cells of two species of Drosophila. Emphasis was placed on the comparative mutation rates of gametes in different stages of maturation at the time of radiation exposure. (C.H.)
