Effects of Heat Treatment on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of U--0.75Wt % Ti.

摘要

An extensive effort has been made at Sandia Albuquerque to characterize and understand the effects of heat treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties of U-0.75wt. percent Ti. A brief summary of that work is presented. It has been written with the intention of providing a guide to heat treatment-microstructure-mechanical property relationships for those who are involved in the processing and application of U-0.75wt. percent Ti. A compilation of related literature is included for those who desire an in-depth understanding of the physical metallurgy of this and other dilute uranium alloys. (ERA citation 02:001011)
