Mulberry is a uranium alloy. It is used as a non-corroding [1] or 'stainless' [2] uranium alloy. [3] It has been put forward as a structural material for the casings of the physics package in nuclear weapons, including those of North Korea. [4] The composition is a ternary alloy, [5] [6] of 7.5% niobium, 2.5% zirconium, 90% uranium. [3]

Uranium alloys refer to metallic compounds that are produced by combining uranium with other elements such as iron, aluminum, and silicon. These alloys are used as fuel elements in nuclear reactors and have specific properties that help minimize swelling and distortion under thermal cycling and irradiation.

Ferrouranium, also called ferro-uranium, is a ferroalloy, an alloy of iron and uranium, after World War II usually depleted uranium.

bibliography is to summarize the literature available on all uranium-base alloys coverir- the unique metallurgical characteristics, including corrosion behavior, complex phase transformations, and fabrication which must be considered by metallurgists and engineers

Uranium, unusually for a metallic element, has a room-temperature structure that is orthorhombic (α-U) below about 670 °C, tetragonal (β-U) from 670 to 770 °C, and body-centered cubic (γ-U) above about 770 °C.

This article presents an overview of the processing and properties of uranium and uranium alloys with a brief overview of the principal hazards and precautions associated with processing depleted uranium and methods to control mild radioactivity, chemical toxicity, and pyrophoricity.

This article presents an overview of the processing and properties of uranium and uranium alloys. Each section includes a few key references, but additional information can be found in previously published reviews (Ref, , , , , , , ) and reports dealing with specific alloys and/or topics referenced in these reviews.

Uranium Alloy refers to a metallic compound that is formed by combining uranium with other elements such as titanium, niobium, and molybdenum. These alloys possess attractive mechanical properties, with comparable strength to stainless steels and the ability to be hardened through heat treatment.

Emphasis is centered on alpha uranium-rich alloys of special interest as uranium- base fuel element materials. The systems treated include uranium-molybdenum, uranium-silicon, uraniumzirconium, uranium-niobium, and uranium-zirconiumniobium (high uranium compositions).

1998年12月31日 · Uranium is often alloyed to improve its corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. Titanium is most commonly used to increase strength; niobium and molybdenum, to increase oxidation and corrosion resistance; and vanadium, to refine alpha grain size in castings.
