TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured hydrogen permeabilities at low driving pressures in the range from 10−3 to 104 Pa and for temperatures between 350 and 1050 K. They found that the use of active hydrogen purity control measures, which included direct hydrogen supply by a temperature-controlled uranium hydride bed and the implementation of a throttled ion pump, greatly increased the capability to obtain unperturbed permeation data.

TL;DR: In this paper, the energies of combustion in oxygen of α-plutonium metal and plutonium mononitride were measured in a bomb calorimeter, and the standard enthalpies of formation, ΔH f o (298.15 K), of PuO 2 (c) and PuN(c) were calculated.

TL;DR: In this article, the standard enthalpies of Na 2 C 2 and NaHC 2 at 298.15 K were determined to be (4.80 ± 0.40) and (23.10 − 0.27) kcal th mol −1, respectively.

TL;DR: A composite including a plurality of metal layers has a Cu-Al-Fe bronze layer and at least one outer layer of a heat and corrosion resistant metal alloy, such as austenitic stainless steel, nickel alloys or alloys of the refractory metals as discussed by the authors.
