Description/Abstract:
THE 3 UNDESIRABLE CHARACTERISTICS OF LEAD-DIP CANNED SLUGS (BRAZE POROSITY, END DISHING, AND WARPING DURING IRRADIATION) ARE DISCUSSED AND EXPERIMENTAL DATA ARE SHOWN THAT STRONGLY INDICATE THAT THESE UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS CAN BE MINIMIZED OR ELIMINATED BY PROPER CHOICE OF HEAT TREATMENT.
