Microstructural characterization of next generation nuclear graphites.
This article reports the microstructural characteristics of various petroleum and pitch based nuclear graphites (IG-110, NBG-18, and PCEA) that are of interest to the next generation nuclear plant program. Bright-field transmission electron microscopy imaging was used to identify and understand the different features constituting the microstructure of nuclear graphite such as the filler particl...
متن کاملRecent Development in Tem Characterization of Irradiated Rertr Fuels
The recent development on TEM work of irradiated RERTR fuels includes characterization of the irradiated U-10Mo/Alloy-6061 monolithic fuel plate, the RERTR7 U-7Mo/Al-2Si and U-7Mo/Al-5Si dispersion fuel plates. It is the first time that a TEM sample of an irradiated nuclear fuel was prepared using the focused-ion-beam (FIB) liftout technical at the Idaho National Laboratory. Multiple FIB TEM sa...
متن کاملMicrostructural changes of graphite irradiated with swift heavy ions
Several methods, such as electron microscopy, scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM), X-ray diffraction, and decoration technique can be used to observe radiation damage in materials. In this work, we report microstructural changes and defect clusters induced by swift heavy ions (SHI) on graphite surfaces, visualized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Our studies have been performed on fine-g...
متن کاملMicrostructural Characterization of Carburized Steels
*Member of ASM International arburizing has been a popular method for obtaining a unique balance of properties in steels for many years. Steels with low carbon contents are characterized by good toughness and good ductility, but low strength and low wear resistance. By locally increasing the carbon content at the surface, followed by heat treatment to produce a very high hardness in this layer ...
متن کاملStorage of spent nuclear fuels in nevada.
American Asociation forthe Advancement of Science Science serves its readers as a forum for the presentation and discussion of important issues related to the advancement of science, including the presentation of minority or conflicting points of view, rather than by publishing only material on which a consensus has been reached. Accordingly, all articles published in Science-including editoria...
