Quantitative Determination of Adsorbed Sulfates on Thoria by Means of Infrared Spectroscopy

Description: By utilizing the KBr-disk technique it is possible to apply infrared analysis quantitatively to the determination of species adsorbed from aqueous solutions on solids of large specific area. In this study, adsorption of sulfates on thoria from aqueous sulfate solutions have a characteristic infrared spectrum with absorbance bands occurring at 8.4, 8.9, and 9.6 microns. Absorbance measurements at these wave lengths were precise to 1-2% and were directly proportional to the amount of adsorbed sul… more

Observations on the Method of Hess for Determining Precision Lattice Measurements

Description: The method of Hess for determining lattice parameters and their standard errors from x-ray powder diffraction films was investigated. The equations are applicable to various cameras and crystal systems. The results of a series or computations in which the initial approximations were deliberately varied over wide that for the computation of precise lattice parameters, the initial estimates need not be good. A parameter input value of zero should be avoided, but otherwise almost any value will do… more

Determination of the Zr Corner of the Zr-Fe-Sn System at 0.1 and 0.2% Oxygen Levels. Final Report for December 5, 1957 - December 5, 1958

Description: This program was undertaken to supply fundamental information on the effect of adding 0.1 or 0.2% oxygen on the phase relationships in the Zr-Fe-Sn system in a limited range of dilute alloys. It is of both theoretical and practical interest to learn that oxygen stabilizes not only the g-phase in zirconium but also two intermetallic compounds ZrFe2 and the G-phase, which, chemically, appears to be Zr4Sn with about 8% Fe replacing zirconium, is shown to be stable at 1010 C, and probably also at 1… more

Gas Scattering Loss in the Electron Analog

Description: The formula for gas scattering losses in proton synchrotrons have to be modified for machines such as our proposed electron analog in three ways: (1) Since the vertical and horizontal apertures are equal, horizontal as well as vertical scattering can result in particle loss; (2) Since we are dealing with electrons of rather low momentum, the angles involved in single scattering events are much larger than in proton synchrotrons, and the probability of losing the beam by single scattering is app… more

Radiation Chemistry of Organic Substances. Final Report for 1 January 1957 to 31 January 1959

Description: The chemical processing of reactor fuels involves the use of organic substances as extracting agents and as diluents. When most organic substances ae exposed to reactor fuel, radiation damage occurs. The objectives of this project were to provide more information regarding damage to hydrocarbon solvents which are similar to those used as solvents in the Thorex program and to determine if the radiation-damaged diluent has a pronounced deleterious effect upon the extraction process.

Description: When most solvents are exposed to radiation, decomposition occurs. The decomposition products may adversely affect the solvent extraction of uranium, thorium, or plutonium in a variety of ways. The current study is concerned with the (1) identification of the gaseous and liquid radiolysis products of tributyl phosphate, (2) the effects of such products upon uranium extractions and stripping efficiencies and thus on the efficiency of the Purex process for uranium and plutonium recovery.

Description: The yet unsolved submillimeter wavelength problem, namely, providing a source of high-power, coherent, monochromatic signal frequencies in the region 300 to 3000 kmc/s, together with suitable measuring techniques and devices, is considered. The dielectric tube resonator is proposed to deal with this problem. It consists of a hollow, circularly cylindrical tube of dielectric material suitably terminated at its ends by sufficiently large metal end walls and constitutes a slow-wave, open-boundary,… more

Description: This technical report presents the results of an investigation concerned with the phenomenon of dispersion in porous media flow. In the work, major emphasis has been placed on the problem of one-dimensional, longitudinal flow in porous media, from both theoretical and experimental viewpoints. To date, only limited work has been done on the corresponding radial flow problem. The governing differential equation for the dispersion of a fluid transporting a solute as it flows through porous media c… more

Kinetics of the Platinum-Catalyzed Hydrogen Reduction of Aqueous Cobalt Sulfate Ammonium Acetate Solutions

Description: Cobalt sulfate solutions containing ammonium acetate and chloroplatinic acid were reduced by hydrogen in a Pyrex-glass lined autoclave in the temperature range of 170 to 232 C and hydrogen partial pressure range of 115 to 830 psia. The reduction rate was directly proportional to the hydrogen partial pressure and surface area of the Pyrex glass and was independent of the quantity of chloroplatinic acid added initially. Experiments involving the variation of the relative concentration of ammonium… more

Determination of Coefficients of Reactivity. Test Results DL-S-151 (T-550132). Section I. Fourth Performance

Description: The purpose of the test was to determine the temperature and pressure coefficients of reactivity at sere power. The value for the temperature coefficient at the operating temperature of 523 F with 556.6 EFPH plant operation was 2.5 (delta E/F) x 16(-4). The magnitude of the temperature coefficient at the plant operating temperature (523 F) indicated the reactor is very stable during normal operations. The pressure coefficient varied from values of 1.41(deltaE/psig) x 10(-6) at 1437 psig to a.57… more
