Abstract

"The metal working industry has used metallography and microradiography extensively in the past decade. X-ray or gamma microradiography has several advantages as compared to metallography, but a disadvantage concerning alloys of adjacent elements; microradiography cannot distinguish between elements 2 or less atomic numbers apart. Attempts were made using neutron microradiography to distinguish between cadmium and tin rich grains. A maximum resolution of 0.017 inches was found with a calculated possibility of a resolution less than 0.002 inches"--Abstract, page ii.
