The role of ternary alloying elements in eutectoid transformation of U–10Mo alloy part II. In and ex-situ neutron diffraction-based assessment of eutectoid phase transformation kinetics in U-9.8Mo-0.2X alloy (X = Cr, Ni or Co)

Exploring the effects of minor ternary alloying additions, typically impurity elements, on the phase stability of U–10Mo is important for preventing undesirable phase decomposition during processing or during service. This work examines the influence small ternary additions of Cr, Ni, and Co. Both in-situ and ex-situ neutron diffraction measurements made during and after high temperature (450–525 °C) exposures were used to better define the...
