DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4343702· OSTI ID:4343702
Declassified 28 Aug 1973. Optical microscopy of untested and hot-gas- tested Rover unfueled and fueled elements was used to study coating adherence and porosity development. Application of microradiography to the examination of Rover elements was evaluated. Nitridation of Nb carbide was studied briefly. (DLC)
