Refabrication and Encapsulation of Highly Irradiated Uranium Dioxide (open access)

Refabrication and Encapsulation of Highly Irradiated Uranium Dioxide

Abstract: One hundred gram quantities of uranium dioxide, irradiated to burnup as great as 21,000 Mwd/MTU and previously reprocessed by AIROX (Atomics International Reduction Oxidation), were refabricated into high density pellets and encapsulated for re-irradiation.

Material Bucklings of Critical and Subcritical Uranium Carbide Fueled Graphite Assemblies: Part 1, Experiment

Introduction: A series of critical and subcritical experiments have been carried out as part of the Advanced Sodium Graphite Reactor (ASGR) Critical Experiments program to provide physics information which would be directly applicable to the AGSR concept.

Accurate Nuclear Fuel Burnup Analyses; Eighth Quarterly Progress Report, (September - November 1963) (open access)

Accurate Nuclear Fuel Burnup Analyses; Eighth Quarterly Progress Report, (September - November 1963)

The objective of the Accurate Nuclear Fuel Burnup Analyses program is to develop more accurate methods for burnup analysis for general use than the current method of analysis of Ca-137 or Sr-90. The program will require from three to five years of effort.

A Comparison of Radiation--Induced Graft Copolymerization Utilizing Electron Accelerators and Isotope Sources as Radiation Initiators (open access)

A Comparison of Radiation--Induced Graft Copolymerization Utilizing Electron Accelerators and Isotope Sources as Radiation Initiators

"The grafting of methacrylic acid, styrene (2: 1 mole ratio) co-monomer mixture on polypropylene film and fabric, was studied to compare electron accelerators and isotopes as sources of radiation. An aluminum block that contalns i/8-in.-deep pockets covered with Mylar film for holding sample and monomer during mutual irradiatlon was developed. A preliminary comparison was made in post grafting polypropylene film and fabric preirradiated with Cow and with an electron accelerator source. It was found that post grafting was rapid at 80 ts C but slow at room temperature. Monomer equilibration before irradiation increased the grafting rate. Higher grafts were obtained when samples were irradiated in sparged and sealed containers. The grafting rate increased as dose rate decreased."
