Contribution to High Vacuum Differential Thermal Analysis Study of Uranium Alloys; CONTRIBUTION A L'ETUDE DES ALLIAGES D'URANIUM PAR ANALYSE THERMIQUE DIFFERENTIELLE SOUS VIDE

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4300722

An apparatus for differential thermal analysis under vacuum is described which can determine the temperatures of stuctural transformations of U alloys with Al, Fe, Zr, and Mo. The method is sensitive and especially well-suited to determining invariant equilibria in these alloys. It should contribute to the study of ihe kinetics of pearlitic-type decompositions, even when they are slow. Studies have been undertaken to obtain quantitative results so as to determine the eutectoid and peritectoid compositions exactly. (T.R.H.)
