We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
20 FUELS, PROCESSING, AND METALLURGY Two methods of fabrication are shown: (1) blanking the disks from sheet stock made by tube extrusion and (2) shaping disks by standard machining techniques. Because of the pyrophoric nature of plutonium, a great deal of the work is done in an inert atmosphere. The ever-present problems of personnel exposure and area contamination are met with a system of operation that has been developed over 16 years.
