Hot workability of alpha brasses / R. Thomson & J.O. Edwards, Physical Metallurgy Division.: M38-1/113-1963E-PDF

"Both lead and bismuth have a deleterious effect on the hot working properties of alpha brasses. The work reported in this article shows that the element uranium, when present in the alloy in such proportions as to form stable high melting point intermetallic compounds with all of the bismuth or lead, is a highly effective agent in removing the characteristic hot shortness in hot-rolled contaminated alpha brass"--page [1].
