POST IRRADIATION ANNEALING OF URANIUM-MOLYBDENUM TERNARY ALLOYS

Journal Article · · Journal of Nuclear Materials (Netherlands)
The effects of post-irradiation annealing on density changes in U-- Mo alloys were investigated. Density changes that occurred in all the alloys studied during irradiation were accounted for by the solid fission products produced. No further density changes took place in the ternary systems studied (U- Mo-- Si and U-- Mo-- Sn) when annealed at 650 and 550 deg C. However control samples (U--4 wt% Mo and U-- 10 wt% Mo) did undergo swelling with a density change of 11 and 2.3%, respectively. (P.C.H.)
