TANTALUM ALLOY TUBING DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

Abstract

A state-of-the-art analysis has been completed covering potential application for, domestic and foreign technology used in the production of, and a review of mechanical and physical property data on tantalum alloy tubing. Usage was made of a questionnaire, personal visitations and contacts, and a review of domestic and foreign literature. The survey revealed that the primary potential utilization of tantalum alloy tubing is in nuclear aerospace propulsion and auxiliary power systems. The proposed program for Phases II, III and IV is submitted.
