The Effect of Radiation and Nitric Acid-Nitrate Salt Solution on Some Non- Metallic Materials
Description:
Several plastic materials and one ceramic alumina were tested for possible use as electrical insulators and spacers in an electrolytic dissolver for processing irradiated nuclear fuels. They were first screened for chemical resistance to the boiling dissolver product solution composed of 1 M nitric acid and 75 g/l stainless steel metal components as nitrates. Those that were resistant were then exposed simultaneously to the boiling dissolver product solution and a gamma irradiation field. Value…
