Rate data were obtained for the deposition of carbon films from methane and acetylene in fluidized beds of alumina, uranium dioxide, uranium monocarbide, uranium dicarbide, and a solid solution of uranium-thorium dicarbide powders. These carbon films were shown to provide excellent protection for the powdered fertile material against attack by hot concentrated nitric-acid solutions. The coated uranium - thorium dicarbide particles were also shown to be stable in humid air. (auth)
