Abstract

The room temperature compositional dependence of U.T.S., flow stress, elongation, reduction in area, density and hardness has been determined for plutonium-gallium alloys having compositions lying within the range 0—5.6 at % Ga. The tensile properties were also measured at 60° C and 100° C for δ-stabilised alloys having compositions in the range 1.1—5.6 at % Ga. These data together with that previously determined for plutonium-aluminium and plutonium-cerium alloys has enabled some deductions to be made regarding the solution hardening of α-stabilised plutonium.
