ABSTRACT
New diffusion experiments were performed at 340ºC
between U-Mo and Al6061 and Al A 356 alloys. Better
concentration measurements and XRD identification of
crystal structures were possible. Experiments to study
eventual changes of the interaction-layer due to the
consumption of Si while diffusion is taking place are
also presented. (U, Mo)(Al, Si)3 with a
concentration of approximately 55 at% of Si, is proposed
to be the only component of the interaction layer. The
zone, surrounding the interaction layer, where Si
precipitates are dissolved, already reported at 550ºC,
is also very noticeable at 340ºC.
Results for new
temperatures were added to the TTT diagram for
g U-7wt%Mo. The influence of
Pt as g-stabilizer is also
shown.
