Reactivity and graphite temperature effects of a helium-nitrogen atmosphere. Final report of PT IP-358-AC

Description: The purpose of the production test was to {open_quotes}investigate the reactivity and temperature effects and the associated operating problems resulting from the use of nitrogen instead of carbon dioxide as a constituent of the K Reactor atmosphere.{close_quotes} This report summarizes the reactivity and reactivity-associated graphite temperature effects observed during the first four months of the test which was initiated at KE Reactor on December 5, 1960.

Corrosion of plutonium metal when stored in containers having plastic components

Description: The conclusions are: (1) The formation of powder or ``oxide`` in the storage container is caused almost entirely by packaging of plutonium in plastic materials. (2) The corrosion of the plutonium follows degradation of the plastic due to the intense radiation. (3) The powder, formed by this corrosion is not PuO{sub 2} but a mixture of oxides, hydrides, and chlorides in varying proportions, depending on the type and amount of plastic in the individual storage container. (4) The powder consists p… more
