INTRODUCTION
A. GENERAL
The purpose of this M a t e r i a l s P r o p e r t i e s Data Book is to provide the standard r e f e r e n c e for m a t e r i a l s p r o p e r t i e s for u s e by
all groups involved with the a n a l y s i s , design, fabrication, o r test responsibilities of the NERVA P r o j e c t .
Beginning with sheets included in the revision of 30 June 1968, data approved a s final design c r i t e r i a will be identified in
green at the top and bottom of sheets with the legend: "Approved for Use in NERVA Final Design. " Those sheets not so
approved will bear a legend in r e d : "NRO and SNPO Concurrence Required for Use in NERVA Final Design;" or white s h e e t s ,
which a r e not m a r k e d with either legend, a r e from e a r l i e r editions, and will r e q u i r e the same c o n c u r r e n c e .
The Data Book includes physical, mechanical, and chemical p r o p e r t i e s of i n t e r e s t for many m a t e r i a l s of significance to the
NERVA P r o g r a m and in addition, data on the effects of i r r a d i a t i o n on m a t e r i a l s . Information i s also provided concerning
m a t e r i a l p r o c e s s i n g , a s for example, heat t r e a t m e n t p r o c e d u r e s , with special emphasis on specifications. Where the heat
t r e a t m e n t o r product form is not stated on the curve sheet, this information was not available in the r e f e r e n c e s u s e d .
M a t e r i a l suppliers a r e given.
Radiation effects data a r e provided for both metallic and non-metallic m a t e r i a l s . Since radiation is cumulative, degraded
p r o p e r t i e s such as elongation must be considered in design for the determination of ductile o r brittle m a t e r i a l classification.
However, in c a s e s where a p r o p e r t y such a s yield strength is enhanced, the higher value must not be used to i n c r e a s e the
design allowable. T e s t data from i r r a d i a t i o n of m a t e r i a l s a r e shown a s 80% of a v e r a g e . Radiation effects data for both
tensile strengths and elongation a r e given for p o l y m e r s since, unlike m e t a l s , both p r o p e r t i e s a r e degraded by i r r a d i a t i o n .
Caution should be e x e r c i s e d in application of these v a l u e s .

GENERAL
The full page identification is established by combining, in this o r d e r , the Roman n u m e r a l for the Material Section, a capital
l e t t e r for the sub-section identification, and an Arabic n u m e r a l for the individual m a t e r i a l (see listing in Table of Contents),
all a r r a y e d over an Arabic nunneral for the page n u m b e r . As an illustration, I - B - 1 0 / 3 identifies the Light Metals g r o u p ,
sub-section Titanium, individual m a t e r i a l T i - 5 A l - 2 . 5Sn, and the p r o p e r t i e s of Ultimate and Tensile Yield Strengths. When
additional sheets a r e r e q u i r e d , a letter is added to the Arabic numeral; for example, the r e f e r e n c e sheet could be supple-
mented by sheets I - B - 1 0 / 3 A , 3B, e t c .
P a r a m e t e r s to be included in the Data Book a r e tabulated below, identified by the pages on which they may be found in each

2. DATA PRESENTATION
a. Adjustment of Data
To provide m o r e usable design information, adjustments have been m a d e , as r e q u i r e d , for pertinent data.
Data for sonne of the nnaterials w e r e consolidated by the use of a jf 10% r u l e , where considered d e s i r a b l e for c l a r i t y . C u r v e s
for different conditions of the same m a t e r i a l which w e r e found to be within +10% of each other w e r e , in some c a s e s , a v e r -
aged into a single curve, with an applicable note designating the conditions r e p r e s e n t e d . In this manner the number of
curves was reduced in the i n t e r e s t of greater e a s e in using the data. This rule was ELLSO applied to the room t e m p e r a t u r e
ends of c u r v e s which extended only above or below that t e m p e r a t u r e ; that i s , a curve from one data source running from
cryogenic to room t e m p e r a t u r e , if the differences w e r e m i n o r , would be joined to a curve from another data source running
from room t e m p e r a t u r e to elevated t e m p e r a t u r e .
In addition, room t e m p e r a t u r e specification minima w e r e incorporated by constructing c u r v e s using average data and then

e. Statistical Analysis of IMaterial Test Data
T e s t for Honnogeneity of Data. Box's modification of the B a r t l e t t ' s t e s t is used to t e s t for homogeneity of data. The t e s t is
first applied to all test data of a single cdloy including data taken from all h e a t s , test t e m p e r a t u r e s , and directions at the
90% confidence level. As the test continues to reject the hypothesis that the data a r e homogeneous, the v a r i a b l e s r e s p o n s i -
ble a r e eliminated; f i r s t , t e s t t e m p e r a t u r e , and then t e s t direction. In g e n e r a l , if the data taken at all t e s t tennperatures
a r e not homogeneous, then all test t e m p e r a t u r e s a r e t r e a t e d separately to produce a snnooth curve of test v a r i a b l e s v e r s u s
temperature.
One-Way Analysis of V a r i a n c e . A one-way analysis of variance is applied to data which includes the h e a t - t o - h e a t variation
and within-heat variation at the 95% confidence level. If the h e a t - t o - h e a t variation is significant, an effective N(N ) i s c o m -
puted using the Satterthwaite approximation. N is the sample size, and N is the reduced sample size due to uncertainty in
the estimate of h e a t - t o - h e a t v a r i a t i o n .
Computation of Design Allowables. Minimum design allowables (F or F ) a r e computed using the formula
tu'
F.tu or F^ty k S,
w h e r e : X is the grand mean, k is the one-sided t o l e r a n c e factor obtained by using N-1 or N , whichever is a p p r o p r i a t e , and
S is the pooled standard deviation.

diameter of a bearing s t r e s s - d e f o r m a t i o n c u r v e .
The bearing s t r e s s is obtained by dividing the load on a pin bearing against the edge of a hole (of d i a m e t e r "D") by the bear-
ing a r e a , where the a r e a is the product of the pin d i a m e t e r and the sheet thickness ("t"). " e " is the edge distance m e a s u r e d
from the hole center to the edge of the m a t e r i a l in the direction of applied s t r e s s .
Tabular vadues a r e for e/D = 2 . 0 , unless otherwise stated.
Bearing values a r e applicable for D/t r a t i o s from 1 to 5. 5; for g r e a t e r r a t i o s they nnust be substantiated by t e s t .
4. MODULUS OF ELASTICITY
Both static and dynamic moduli of elasticity w e r e used when available.
The static modulus of elasticity is obtained by taking the ratio of the s t r e s s to the s t r a i n at some point in the elastic range of
the s t r e s s - s t r a i n curve for a m a t e r i a l .
The dynamic modulus of elasticity is obtained by vibrating a specimen of the m a t e r i a l at its resonant frequency with s t r a i n
amplitudes of the o r d e r of 10 in. /in. The elastic modulus is calculated from the density, geomietry, and the resonant
frequency. Generally, the dynamic modulus is slightly g r e a t e r than the static modulus because of the low s t r a i n magnitude
of the dynamic t e s t . Dynamic modiolus is considered to be m o r e appropriate for vibration environments than the static modulus.

5. THERMAL EMISSIVITY AND EMITTANCE
As used in this publication, the differences between the t e r m s " E m i t t a n c e " and " E m i s s i v i t y " a r e i m p o r t a n t . These t e r m s
may be defined a s :
Emittance ( Q Ratio of r a t e of radiant e m i s s i o n (the ability to send out radiant energy) from a body, because of
t e m p e r a t u r e , to that of a blackbody at the same t e m p e r a t u r e .
Emissivity (£') As in emittance, but for an opaque homogeneous m a t e r i a l with an optically smooth surface
composed of the same m a t e r i a l . Then, emissivity of an opaque m a t e r i a l i s the lower limiting value approached
by its emittance a s its surface is made m o r e smooth, to an optimum of optical s m o o t h n e s s .
These variations of emittance a r e utilized at t i m e s in data p r e s e n t e d h e r e i n :
H e m i s p h e r i c a l Emittance (£v,) Ratio of radiance from a body, because of t e m p e r a t u r e , to that of a blackbody at

the same t e m p e r a t u r e .
N o r m a l Emittance (£„) Ratio of steradiance from a body, because of t e m p e r a t u r e , to that of a blackbody at the
s a m e t e m p e r a t u r e , in the direction n o r m a l to the s u r f a c e .
Total Emittance (£,.) Ratio of total radiance from a body, because of t e m p e r a t u r e , to that of a blackbody at the
saine t e m p e r a t u r e .
In addition, these i t e m s a r e defined for b e t t e r understanding of the above:
Radiance (R) Rate of r a d i a n t - e n e r g y e m i s s i o n from a unit a r e a of a source in all radial directions of the o v e r -
spreading h e m i s p h e r e .

6. GOODMAN DIAGRAMS
Where available data permitted, modified Goodman d i a g r a m s w e r e developed and added to the Basic Data Sheets. These
d i a g r a m s show the average fatigue effects (not minimum p r o p e r t i e s ) of a static s t r e s s superimposed on an alternating
s t r e s s , and a r e based upon the tensile strength of the m a t e r i a l and the fatigue life under one condition of s t r e s s . The
fatigue life was taken from S-N curves r e p r e s e n t i n g a loading condition of R = - 1 , in which R i s the ratio of the minimum
s t r e s s to the maximum s t r e s s .
As p r e s e n t e d , the d i a g r a m s focus on the static tensile strength a s the limiting mean s t r e s s . The yield strength is shown,
and the allowable s t r e s s e s can be limited by this value to prevent p e r m a n e n t deformation during s e r v i c e .
Under the condition quoted for each d i a g r a m , the limiting s t r e s s values a r e c o n s e r v a t i v e . Changes in the method of load-
ing, however, will significantly change the limiting s t r e s s values (allowable s t r e s s e s for aixial loading a r e lower than those
for flexural loading). The allowable s t r e s s e s will also tend to vary with the product (sheet, b a r , etc) and with the method
of manufacture. These changes will generally not be a s g r e a t a s those introduced by a change in the method of loading.
Another consideration is that the data w e r e obtained with ground or polished s p e c i m e n s . These will have surfaces superior
to those found in s e r v i c e .
