THE METALLOGRAPHY OF IRRADIATED URANIUM-PREPARATION, CATHODIC VACUUM ETCHING, AND REPLICATION

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4321357
Facilities and procedures used in the preparation and metallographic examinntion of specimens made intensely radioactive by neutron irradiation in atomic reactors are described. The applicability of remote cathodic vacuum etching and remote replication to optical and electron metallography in the study of neutron irradia- tion damage in uranium is demonstrated. (auth)
