Description/Abstract:
THE FABRICATION HISTORY AND EVALUATION OF SLUGS PRODUCED FROM RODS FABRICATED FROM DINGOTS BY THE DUPLEX PROCESS IS REPORTED. DINGOT SLUGS ARE CHEMICALLY PURER, CONTAIN FEWER AND SMALLER INCLUSIONS AND HAVE A HIGHER 305 TEST PILE REACTIVITY THAT INGOT SLUGS. DINGOT SLUGS HAVE A VARIABLE GRAIN SIZE AND HIGHER H CONTENT THAN THE INGOT SLUGS. RECOMMENDS A PILE TEST TO DETERMINE IRRADIATION CHARACTERISTICS OF DINGOT SLUGS
