Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects of neutron exposure to 3.0 x 1018 neutrons/cm2 on the mechanical properties of thorium and thorium-carbon alloy are described. Tensile measurements were done at six different test temperatures from 4°K to 503°K and at two strain rates. Thorium and thorium-carbon alloy are shown to display typical radiation hardening like other face-centered cubic metals. The yield drop phenomenon of the thorium-carbon alloy is unchanged after irradiation. The variation of shear stress and effective shear stress with test temperature was fitted to Seeger's and Fleischer's equations for irradiated and unirradiated thorium and thorium-carbon alloy. Neutron irradiation apparently contributes an athermal component to the yield strength. However, some thermal component is detected in the low temperature range. Strain-rate parameter is increased and activation volume is decreased slightly for both kinds of metal after irradiation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Metallurgy of Nuclear Fuel: Properties and Principles of the Technology of Uranium, Thorium and Plutonium is a systematic analysis of the metallurgy of nuclear fuel, with emphasis on the physical, mechanical, and chemical properties as well as the technology of uranium, thorium, and plutonium, together with their alloys and compounds. The minerals and raw material sources of nuclear fuel are discussed, along with the principles of the technology of the raw material processing and the production of the principal compounds, and of the pure metals and alloys. Comprised of three parts, this volume begins with an introduction to the history of the discovery of uranium and its position in the periodic system; its use as a nuclear fuel; radioactivity and isotopic composition; alloys and compounds; and physical, mechanical, and chemical properties. The effect of mechanical and thermal treatment, thermal cycling and irradiation on the physicochemical properties of uranium is also examined. The next two sections are devoted to thorium and plutonium and includes chapters dealing with their uses, alloys and compounds, and methods of recovery and purification. This book is written for university students, but should also prove useful to young production engineers and scientific workers who are concerned with problems in the metallurgy of nuclear fuel.

This book was released on 1961 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The addition of alloying elements to base alloys of Th containing 5 and 10 wt% U was investigated with regard to alloy structures and elevated- temperature mechanical properties. The alloys developed possess elevated temperature tensile and stress-rupture strengths of essentially twice those associated with binary Th-5 and 10 wt% U alloys at 60O to 800 deg C. The greater strength of these alloys should resuit in improved resistance to radiation induced swelling at high temperatures. Noticeable improvement in elevated-temperature mechanical properties resulted from the addition of 2 and 5 wt% Zr to the Th-5 and Th-10 wt% U base alloys. Zr was found to be the most effective additive in improving elevated-temperature mechanical properties, although significant improvement was noted with additions of Nb, Mo, C, Al, and Be. Both solidsolution strengthening and dispersion strengthening of the Th --U base alloys were encountered. It was found that a fine intragranular distribution of the secondary U phase improved the mechanical properties of the alloys studied. Structures with optimum properties were produced by careful control of the arc-melting procedure and by solution heat treating at 1350 deg C followed by aging at 850 deg C. Preliminary testing was performed to determine the elevatedtemperature mechanical properties of Th metal and of the Th --U base alloys. Irradiation specimens of the most promising alloys were prepared. These specimens were encapsulated and are ready for irradiation testing at 800 deg C and for subjection to burnups of 10,000, 20,000 and 30,000 Mwd/ ton. (auth).
