Gainesville, FL: University of Florida, 1990. Presumed First Edition, First printing thus. Comb binding. vi, 75 pages. Clear plastic sheet in front of thesis cover. List of Figures. Abstract. Introduction. Experimental Description. Results. Conclusions, Appendices, and References. This work involved a literature survey, both theoretical and experimental methods and a review of current work. The experiment involved apparatus, procedure, sample description and post exposure analysis. The primary conclusion was that neither UO2 nor ThOs were suitable for use as structural or lining materials in exposure to pure UF4 in either the liquid or gas phase. However the results did prove the applicability of the phase diagram produced by Fonteneau and Lucas to the liquid phase reactions of these compounds, as well as proving the assumption that at the temperatures of interest in this study, corrosive reactions would proceed to equilibrium so rapidly as to make reaction kinetics relatively unimportant.

Los Alamos, NM: Los Alamos National Laboratory, 2003. Presumed first printings thus. Three Ring Binder. There appear to be four distinct presentations, or at least parts of presentations, in this three-ring binder. Binder and some wear and soiling. There is a combination of hard copy vugraphs and transparencies. This may be a unique surviving set of this information. Inside the front cover pocket is a hard copy briefing titled Lithium Salt/Uranium Interfacial Studies by Dan Kelly and Tom Jachimoski of the Chemistry division (C-SIC) of the Los Alamos National Laboratory which was presented at an ESC {Enhanced Surveillance Campaign] Program Review in April 2003. There are seven hardcopy sheets and discussion of Li Salt/U Interface Studies Protocol, SIMS, SNMS Initial Characterization of LiH Salt, XPS Characterization of Uranium Disk, Change in Can Pressure with Time, Mass spectra of Cans with and without Uranium, and Li Salt/U Interface Continuing Work. Laid in is a seven slide hardcopy presentations entitled LA-15 Uranium Corrosion and Aging by Robert J. Hanrahan, Jr. and several others from MST-6 Metallurgy presented on April 14, 2003 at LLNL and the Enhanced Surveillance Campaign Annual Review. The content addressed the initiation and growth of U-Hydride Pits, Hydriding Kinetics of Uranium, In-Situ Reactors, U 4f High Resolution XPS data (2 slides), and alpha-U metal high resolution valence band UPS data (1 slide).
