FEBRUARY 1951
HEAT AND CHEMISTRY--"John A. Swartout of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, in a comprehensive paper on the chemistry connected with nuclear reactors, revealed that this research had opened a whole new field of 'high-temperature chemistry.' Most chemical research in the past, he pointed out, has been conducted at room temperatures, and relatively little study has been given to chemical reactions above 100 degrees Centigrade. In the program looking toward the development of reactors for power, chemists must study how chemicals react at temperatures far above this level."
