Description

A high temperature commercial X-ray camera (UNICAM S150), modified in order to improve some of its performances, is adapted to the uranium powder problem. The strong uranium reactivity for oxygen and silica, the sintering and the grain growth in β-phase are avoided. X-ray photographs are thus possible even in the γ-phase. (authors)

Abstract (French)

Une chambre commerciale de diffraction de rayons X a haute temperature, UNICAM SI50, modifiee en vue d'ameliorer certaines performances, a ete adaptee au probleme de la diffraction sur l'uranium en poudre. En particulier, la reaction avec la silice et l'oxygene, le frittage et l'accroissement du grain en phase β sont evites. L'examen et les mesures sont ainsi possibles jusqu'en phase γ. (auteurs)
