Abstract

A method is given for enclosing a body of uranium in a sheath of compacted beryllium or zirconium powder and comprises enveloping the body with uncompacted powder and pressing at a temperature above the beta - gamma transition point of uranium, thereby causing the uranium to flow and isotropically compress the powder.

Method for producing plate-, tape- or film-shaped Si crystal bodies for solar cells

Patent Grabmaier, C.; Holzapfel, H.

Selectively shaped silicon crystal bodies, such as plate-, tape or film-shaped bodies, having crystalline pillar-like structures therein are produced as substantially pore-free bodies by forming a slurry from an admixture of relatively fine sized silicon particles, optional additives and a liquid binder, extruding such slurry as a relatively thin layer onto a first support member, drying such extruded layer until it becomes self-supporting and removing such support member, applying a substantially uniform layer of a germanium powder onto a surface of such self-supporting layer, and then sintering the resultant structure in a protective gas atmosphere at temperatures below about 1430/supmore »« less
Method for producing plate or tape shaped silicon crystal bodies having crystalline pillar-like structures, equivalent to columnar structures, for large surface solar cells

Patent Hanke, L.; Schmelz, H.

The invention provides an improved method for producing plateshaped or tape-shaped silicon crystal bodies having pillar-like structures therein which are equivalent to columnar structures. The sintering process is conducted, for purposes of particle enlargement, in a gas atmosphere comprised of argon and a minimum amount of hydrogen. In a preferred embodiment, the hydrogen concentration in such atmosphere is about 6% by volume. The so-produced silicon bodies are useful for further processing into large-surface solar cells.
Method for producing plate-, tape- or film-shaped Si crystal bodies for solar cells

Patent Grabmaier, C.

Large surfaced, pore-free silicon bodies useful for processing into solar cells are produced by providing at least two layers formed from at least two distinct silicon materials, each containing different amounts of germanium therein and thus having different melting points. A laminate is formed of such layers and sintered at a temperature at which only one of the silicon materials becomes molten so that the resultant molten layer effectively seals the pores of the other layers and upon cooling a unitary silicon body is attained. In certain embodiments, a molten silicon material is applied as a liquified film onto amore »« less
A METHOD OF PRODUCING SHAPED BODIES OF CERAMIC MATERIAL PROTECTIVE AGAINST IONISING RADIATION

Patent Lach, V.; Potucek, V.; Slaba, J.

A method is described for producing shaped ceramic shielding from the waste materials of lead extracting and processing plants and aqueous aluminum silicates. The waste materials are mixed in such proportions that 6 to 9.5 mols PbOR/sub 2/O/sub 3/ (R/sub 2/O/sub 3/ being oxides contained in the waste materials) correspond to one mol Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/ and 2 to 2.8 mols SiO/sub 2/. The mixture is molded to the desired shape and fired. The shaped bodies may be in the form of plates having edges recessed in such a manner that the adjacent plates of a wall of plates engagemore »« less
METHOD OF PRODUCING SHAPED BODIES OF BERYLLIUM

Patent Barrett, T.R.; Ellis, G.C.; Knight, R.A.

A procedure is presented for the prcduction of shaped bores of Be by powder metallurgy. Beryllium powder of particle size not greater than 80 microns is placed into a mold and sintered, with no external pressure applied to the mold before or during sintering. The sintering is preferably effected in vacuo. The sintering should be carried out at a temperature of 1150 to 1250 tained C for about 6 hrs. (W.L.H.)
