Book STRESS CORROSION CRACKING IN URANIUM MOLYBDENUM ALLOYS

Download or read book STRESS CORROSION CRACKING IN URANIUM MOLYBDENUM ALLOYS written by and published by . This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation was conducted to determine the cause of cracking, during tension, on the surface of tensile specimens of U--Mo alloys. The cracking was observed in alloys that were water quenched from a temperature range in which the body-centered cubic gamma phase was stable and, subsequently, stressed in tension. The investigation was carried out on alloys of U--Mo containing 5 and 4 wt% Mo. It was discovered early in the study that the cracking could be eliminated by testing tensile specimens in a He atmosphere. Because of this result, tensile tests were performed in vacuum O22, impure N2, and purified N2. Additional experiments were done to establish the relation of stress state, temperature, strain rate, O2 pressure, stress magnitude, and grain size to the cracking phenomenon. U--4 wt% Mo and U--5 wt% Mo were compared with respect to microstructure and crystal structure, since both alloys cracked during the tensile test. The origin and propagation of cracks in the microstructure were studied, using motion pictures and metallography. The results of the various experiments showed that the cracking occurred only in tension and was caused by stress-corrosion cracking due to the presence of O/sub 2/ in the atmosphere. The rate of cracking increased as the temperature was increased above 25 deg C. Below 10 deg C cracking was not observed in the U-5 wt% Mo alloy. Cracking was not associated with just one metastable phase. since it was observed in both the U-5 wt% Mo and U-4 wt% Mo alloys, which have different crystal structures when rendered metastable by water quenching from the gamma phase field. The path of fracture was transgranular and was not associated with deformation markings in the grains. (auth).

Book Fracture Characteristics of Uranium Alloys by Scanning Electron Microscopy

Download or read book Fracture Characteristics of Uranium Alloys by Scanning Electron Microscopy written by and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fracture characteristics of uranium alloys were determined by scanning electron microscopy. The fracture mode of stress-corrosion cracking (SCC) of uranium-7.5 weight percent niobium-2.5 weight percent zirconium (Mulberry) alloy, uranium--niobium alloys, and uranium--molybdenum alloys in aqueous chloride solutions is intergranular. The SCC fracture surface of the Mulberry alloy is characterized by very clean and smooth grain facets. The tensile-overload fracture surfaces of these alloys are characteristically ductile dimple. Hydrogen-embrittlement failures of the uranium alloys are brittle and the fracture mode is transgranular. Fracture surfaces of the uranium-0.75 weight percent titanium alloys are quasi cleavage.

Book Effects of High Burnup at Elevated Temperatures on Uranium 0 52 and 1 62 W o Zirconium Alloys

Download or read book Effects of High Burnup at Elevated Temperatures on Uranium 0 52 and 1 62 W o Zirconium Alloys written by J. H. Kittel and published by . This book was released on 1959 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation of the effects of irradiation on uranium containing 0.52 and 1.62 w/o zirconium was made. Specimens of wrought material, variously heat treated, were studied as well as castings of the alloys. It was found that, although the wrought and heat-treated alloys were reportedly stable under thermal cycling, they elongated rapidly under irradiation. The best material studied was the 1.62% alloy in the as-cast condition. It was found to increase in length initially at a rate of about 5% per a/o burnup, after which the rate steadily diminished. Up to burnups of at least 5.3 a/o it retained a smooth surface. Two specimens of the cast 1.62% alloy, one irradiated to 2.1 a/o burnup at a calculated central temperature of 690 deg C and the other irradiated to 5.3 at.% burnup at a calculated central temperature of 620 deg C, swelled and increased in volume with the formation of a large central void surrounded by highly porous metal. The critical swelling temperature of urauium--1.62 w/o zirconium alloy was found to lie between 300 and 620 deg C, with some indications that it may be near 500 deg C.
