Hydrogen Embrittlement of Zirconium

Description: Abstract: "The amount of hydrogen normally present in zirconium and zirconium alloys suffices to reduce their ductility greatly in an impact test at room temperature, after slow cooling from 600 F. Quenching from 600 F or above gives high impact strength, as does removal of hydrogen by high-temperature vacuum annealing. This report discusses the evidence on hydrogen embrittlement, the diffusion, solid solubility, and equilibrium pressure of hydrogen of hydrogen in zirconium, the microstructure,… more

The Reaction Between Hydrogen and Oxygen by Catalysis and the Thermal Reaction

Description: From abstract: "The reaction between hydrogen and oxygen with the aid of various catalysts (especially platinum on aluminua) has been studied, and the operating variables such as flow rates, space velocity, temperature, and gas composition have been examined rather extensively. It has been found that hydrogen and oxygen in stoichiometric proportions and mixed with either steam or helium may be made to react to the extent of 99.5% or greater at space velocities up to 30,000 hr-1, or even higher,… more

Hydrogen Embrittlement of Zirconium

Description: The amount of hydrogen normally present in zirconium and zirconium alloys suffices to reduce their ductility greatly in an impact test at room temperature, after slow cooling from 6OO deg F. Quenching from 6OO deg F or above gives high impact strength, as does removal of hydrogen by hightemperature vacuum aanealing. The evidence on hydrogen embrittlement, the diffusion, solid solubility, and equilbrium pressure of hydrogen in zirconium the microstructure, and the effects of hydrogen and heat tr… more

A Fundamental Study of the Mechanism by Which Hydrogen Enters Metals During Chemical and Electrochemical Processing

Description: Note presenting several known methods of controlling the entry and exit of hydrogen in steel as correlated with the known chemical behavior of atomic and molecular hydrogen. Some of the results of testing and a newly proposed mechanism for hydrogen control are provided.

LOW ENERGY CROSS SECTIONS FOR THE D-D AND D-T REACTIONS

Description: Previous computations of cross sections for the D-D and D-T reactions were dependent on the knowledge of the energy loss of deuterons and tritons in D{sub 2}O ice targets. Recent Published experimental data on the energy loss dE/dx of protons in H{sub 2} and O{sub 2} have been sufficiently consistent to correct the results of the measurements of Bretscher, French and Sidel (Phys. Rev. 73, 815 (1948) and 75, 1154 (1949). Without describing the methods used to obtain the new data, the author uses… more

Freezing Point Diagram and Liquid-Liquid Solubilities of the System Uranium Hexafluoride-Hydrogen Fluoride

Description: Abstract: "The complete freezing point diagram for the system uranium hexafluoride-hydrogen fluoride has been determined. In addition, liquid-liquid solubilities of these compounds have been measured up to the consolute temperature of 101 C. A miscibility gap starts at 61.2 C. over the compositions range 10 to 80 mole per cent uranium hexafluoride. The lowest melting point of this binary system under its own pressure, i.e. the eutectic, is -85 C."

Hydrogen Peroxide Analysis and Decomposition in Chromate Solutions

Description: Abstract: "A novel procedure employing ion exchange resins was developed to separate chromate ions from hydrogen peroxide, permitting, permitting the subsequent analysis of peroxide to determine its decomposition in sodium chromate solutions. At high pH's, peroxide was absorbed anionically on the ion exchange resins along with chromate. By selecting a resin which would be effective at nearly neutral conditions, chromate was satisfactorily separated from peroxide. It was found that the rate of p… more

Total Cross Sections of Tritium, Hydrogen, and Helium for Fast Neutrons

Description: Abstract: "By using gaseous samples in neutron transmission experiments the total cross section of tritium has been measured over the energy region from 0.3 to 7.0 Mev and at the following additional energies: 14.1, 18.0, 19.1, and 20.0 Mev. A plot of cross section versus neutron energy shows a broad maximum with the greatest value of 2.5 barns at 3.7 Mev. Cross sections for helium were measured in the energy region from 1 to 3 Mev and for both hydrogen and helium at 14.1 Mev."

U-235 Critical Mass Dependence on Moderation

Description: Introduction: "Based on experimental data and on conservative theoretical considerations, an estimate has been made of the relation of the mining U-235 critical mass to the hydrogen moderation for uranium material at the U-235 assays for which experimental information is available. These estimates have been used in indicating maximum safe amounts for conditions where definite moderation limitations can be established."

Limits -- cooling water contamination

Description: The question of maximum permissible levels of fission products or corrosion products in the pile effluent water which you raised is not a simple problem that can be completely answered by a list of maximum permissible levels. This water is a complex mixture of various isotopes each of which contributes to the total hazard according to the amount present, its particular metabolic features, and its mode of radioactive decay. Unfortunately, also, application of maximum permissible limits determine… more

The Heat and Entropy of Ionization of Anhydrous Acetic Acid.

Description: Studies of ionic entropies in methanol and ammonia have led to the suggestion that ionic entropies in water are abnormally high. An explanation of this hypothesis may be given in terms of entropies of solvation and the high degree of hydrogen bonding in water. When an ion enters water, more disorder is created than when it enters another, less hydrogen-bonded, solvent.
