These three reports were issued separately, but are cataloged as a unit. The following investigations of Zircaloy were made fusion welding of vacuum- melted, source of stringer corrosion, effect of stretch straightening on grain size of tubing; crevice corrosion; status of arc-melting; dissolution of oxide films, conversion of ingots to cold-rolled strip effect of heat treatment on the tensile and corrosion properties, variations in yielding behavior caused by hydrogen, corrosion evaluation of hydrogen during corrosion in high-temperature water and steam, and corrosion evaluation of hydrochloric--hydrofluoric acid etchant.
