Beryllium in Colorado
Report discussing properties and uses of beryllium and beryl, an ore of beryllium produced as a by-product of mining in Colorado.
Carnotite Resources in the Charles T. Area and Vicinity, San Miguel County, Colorado
Report discussing an exploratory drilling program in the Charles T. area and vicinity during the period from November 1947 and September 1949. "The purpose of the exploration was to discover new carnotite deposits to support milling operations on the Colorado Plateau, and to appraise the uranium and vanadium resources of the area explored."
Corrosion of Stellite in MJ-1 Streams
The following report provides data from completed tests for corrosion testing of stellite-T347 stainless steel test cylinders.
The Coulometric Determination of Acid
Introduction: "The need for a method of acid determination which could be used for small samples and easily adapted to remote control led to the investigation of the use of electrolytically generated base for the titration of acid in certain solutions. The use of electrolytically generated base for the titration of acetic acid in the presence of nitric acid has been reported (1)."
The Determination of Tributyl Phosphate in Deodorized Shell Base with the Infrared Spectrometer
The following report describes methods used to determine tributylphosphate in a deodorized shell base. An infrared absorption method is developed to emphasize toward determination of TBP in RCW streams, the organic waste streams.
The Development of Plutonium Electrodeposition Methods : Interim Report
From introduction: "The following report presents a body of information obtained in the Health Instrument Development Laboratory from September, 1948, to the present, and is intended to be a preliminary review of [the study of electrodeposition of plutonium]. Many improvements in technique and methods and investigations along lines not explored are suggested by the present work. These will be undertaken as time permits, and reported at a later time."
The Gasometric Determination of Nitrite and Sulfamate
This report covers an investigation made to develop a gasometric determination that can determine 1.2 x 10-(-5) g. of nitrite with a precision (99% limits) of +/- 8%, and discusses how this procedure works.
Infrared Absorption Measurements Indicating Intermolecular Association of Water and Hexone
This report analyzes infrared absorption measurements that were made in the regions of carbonyl band and hydroxyl band absorptions on solutions of water in hexone and water in acetone, confirming intermolecular association of water and hexone.
The Oxidation of Plutonium to the Plutonyl State
This report follows the study of the oxidation of plutonium III and IV to the plutonyl state.
P-10 Chemical Equilibria
This report studies tritium oxides and tritium in water vapor, a product of P-10.
Preliminary Report on Thermal and Electrical Conductivities of Some Plutonium-Aluminum Alloys
Abstract: "The thermal and electrical conductivities of a series of Pu-Al alloys have been determined in the range 0.12 atomic percent Pu. The conductivities are approximately proportional to the volume of free aluminum."
Reconnaissance of Metal Mining in the San Juan Region: Ouray, San Juan, and San Miguel Counties, Colorado
Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines discussing metal mines in Colorado. As stated in the summary, "this paper describes the mineral deposits and discusses mining and milling methods and related operating conditions in an important gold, silver, lead, and zinc producing area in Ouray, San Juan, and San Miguel Counties, Colo., embracing 250 square miles" (p. 5). This report includes tables, maps, and illustrations.
Solubility relationships of acidified stored metal wastes
The reports aims to determine the solubility limitation of concentrations of uranium in the food preparation step of the tributyl phosphate waste metal recovery process, and the subsequent solubilities in the RA column.
Statistical evaluation of calibrartion data-infrared method for determination of % TBP
A report which discusses the data submitted for evaluation. This data is about optical densities from infrared spectrometer readings on eight standard samples, ranging in percent TBP from 6.71 to 17.85.
