DENSITY MEASUREMENTS IN GLOVEBOXES. WITH DENSITY DATA ON MONOBROMOBENZENE, CAST THORIUM, THORIUM-URANIUM, AND THORIUM-PLUTONIUM ALLOYS

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

By taking into consideration temperature differences between the glovebox atmosphere and the liquid, it was possible to make density measurements in gloveboxes by the hydrostatic weighing method with monobromobenzene as a liquid with an accuracy of plus or minus 0.005 g/cm/sup 3/. This is an improvement by an order of magnitude over the prior state. This accuracy allows structural changes to be detected in thorium--uranium and thorium--plutonium alloys. (auth)
