Ignition Behavior and Kinetics of Oxidation of the Reactor Metals, Uranium, Zirconium, Plutonium, and Thorium, and Binary Alloys of Each
註釋The importance of prevention of fires and explosions involving uranium, zirconium, plutonium, and thorium, which are of particular interest to the nuclear energy program, made imperative the study of their ignition behavior and oxidation kinetics. Methods of measurements of ignition characteristics of uranium and zirconium were developed and used to determine the effects of variables, such as surface preparation, metallurgical history, specific area (sample size), additives to the metal, and oxygen content and presence of moisture in the oxidizing gas.
