Carbon Tetrachloride Extinguisher of Electric Fires

Description: Report discussing "the extent and nature of the hazards to firefighters from gases and smoke resulting from the application of carbon tetrachloride extinguisher to electric arcs, burning insulation or fires such as may occur in electrical apparatus and machinery. The experiments described were made for the purpose of determining the nature of gases and smoke and ascertaining their toxic properties" (p. 1).

Thermodynamic Properties of Forsterite and Serpentine

Description: From introduction: "This report contains the results of measurements to obtain the heats of formation of forsterite and chrysotile; entropies at 298.15 K of two polymorphs of serpentine, chrysotile and antigorite; and high temberature heat content increments for antigorite. These results have been combined with other pertinent data to derive heat and free energy values at high temperatures."

Effect of Explosive Impacting on Uranium

Description: Abstract: The tensile and yield strengths of both cast and wrought uranium discs were substantially increased by explosively impacting them at room temperature and at 375 deg F. However, the room-temperature impacting caused gross damage in the cast material and slight internal damage in the wrought material at the highest impacting pressures. Impacting at 375 deg F, which is just above the brittle-ductile transition temperature for uranium, was the most effective method for increasing the stre… more
