Assay of nitroplasticizer for PBX 9501. Period covered: January--March 1976. Normal process development endeavor No. 105

Description: A series of standard procedures for component and contaminant analysis of the nitroplasticizer in PBX 9501 was checked for accuracy and precision. Acid number was determined by a titration with methanolic KOH. Water was assayed by a Karl Fisher titration. The refractive index was measured at 25/sup 0/C by a refractometer, and density was determined by a pycnometer. The BDNPA/BDNPF was assayed by a liquid chromatographic technique. A gas chromatographic method was developed for determination of … more

Annular core pulse reactor upgrade quarterly report, July--September 1976

Description: The object of the ACPR Upgrade is to arrive at a reactor modification which will provide an increased pulsed neutron fluence in the irradiation cavity without an increased degradation of the pulse duration. The upgraded reactor will also have an increased steady-state neutron flux. The approach to the upgrade modification involves a two-region core concept. The inner region, surrounding the irradiation cavity, consists of a high-heat-capacity fuel which will sustain a large fission energy depos… more

High Flux Isotope Reactor Quarterly Report: April-June 1976

Description: Despite four end-of-cycle shutdowns during the reporting period, the reactor operated 95.6 percent of the time. This increased the on-stream time for the year to 95.3 percent. A test of the reactor bay in-leakage determined that an exhaust flow rate of 3,050 cfm is required to maintain a vacuum of 0.1 in. of water in this area.
