High-gradient magnetic filtration (HGMF) is a non-destructive separation technique that captures magnetic constituents from a matrix containing other non-magnetic species. One characteristic that actinide metals share across much of the group is that they are magnetic.
Currently available cast Al alloys are not suitable for various high-performance conductor applications, such as rotor, inverter, windings, busbar, heat exchangers/sinks, etc.
The invented alloys are a new family of Al-Mg alloys. This new family of Al-based alloys demonstrate an excellent ductility (10 ± 2 % elongation) despite the high content of impurities commonly observed in recycled aluminum.
V-Cr-Ti alloys have been proposed as candidate structural materials in fusion reactor blanket concepts with operation temperatures greater than that for reduced activation ferritic martensitic steels (RAFMs).
With the ever-growing reliance on batteries, the need for the chemicals and materials to produce these batteries is also growing accordingly. One area of critical concern is the need for high quality graphite to ensure adequate energy storage capacity and battery stability.
Test facilities to evaluate materials compatibility in hydrogen are abundant for high pressure and low temperature (<100C).
Pyrolysis evolved gas analysis – mass spectrometry (EGA-MS) and pyrolysis gas chromatography – MS (GC-MS) – are powerful analytical tools for polymer characterization.
A bonded carbon fiber monolith was made using a coal-based pitch precursor without a binder.
The first wall and blanket of a fusion energy reactor must maintain structural integrity and performance over long operational periods under neutron irradiation and minimize long-lived radioactive waste.
We have developed an aerosol sampling technique to enable collection of trace materials such as actinides in the atmosphere.
