Book Description
The resistance of corrosion and stress-corrosion cracking of welded U--6 wt% Nb in oxygen-saturated water containing 50 ppM chloride ions was investigated. The tests showed that a post-weld heat treatment consisting of solution quenching and underaging (350 deg C for 42 min) provided the best resistance to corrosion and pitting corrosion. Although selective corrosion and pitting corrosion were observed on many of the specimens tested, no evidence of stress-corrosion cracking was found. (auth).

Book Description
Mechanical properties of the uranium-6 wt percent niobium alloy change with aging time and temperature. In general, the ultimate tensile strength and hardness reach a peak, while elongation becomes a minimum at aging temperatures between 400 and 500°C. The first optical evidence of a second phase was in the 400°C-aged alloy, while complete transformation to a two-phase structure was seen in the 600°C-aged alloy. The maximum-strength conditions correlate with the minimum stress corrosion cracking (SCC) resistance. The maximum SCC resistance is found in the as-quenched and 150, 200, and 600$sup 0$C-aged specimens. The as-quenched and 300°C-aged specimens had the greatest resistance to general corrosion in aqueous chloride solutions; the 600°C-aged specimen had the least resistance. (auth).

Book Description
The stress corrosion cracking behavior of U-21/4, 41/2, 6 and 8 wt % Nb alloys was evaluated in laboratory air and in aqueous Cl− solutions. Thresholds for crack propagation were obtained in these environments. The data showed that Cl− solutions are more deleterious than air environments. Tests were also conducted in pure gases to identify the species in the air responsible for cracking. These data showed the primary stress corrodent is water vapor for the most reactive alloy, U-21/4% Nb, while O2 is primarily responsible for cracking in the more corrosion resistant alloys, U-6 and 8% Nb. The 41/2% alloy was found to be susceptible in both H2O and O2 environments.
