摘要:
Matériau pour vêtement de protection nucléaire, biologique et chimique, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte exclusivement une couche extérieure en coton/polyester ayant subi un traitement déperlant et une couche de mousse de polyuréthanne imprégnée de charbon actif, de préférence comprimée, contre-collée sur une étoffe formant la couche intérieure du matériau.
摘要:
A composite, neutron absorbing, coated article, normally flat and thin and of comparatively light weight, suitable for installation in storage racks for spent nuclear fuel and for other neutron absorbing applications, includes a backing member, preferably of flexible material such as woven fiberglass cloth, a synthetic organic polymeric coating or a plurality of such coatings on the backing member, preferably of cured phenolic resin, such as phenol formaldehyde or trimethylolphenol formaldehyde and boron carbide particles held to the backing member by the cured coating or a plurality of such coatings. Also within the invention is a method for the manufacture of the neutron absorbing coated article and the use of such an article. In a preferred method the backing member is first coated on both sides thereof with a filling coating of thermosettable liquid phenolic resin, which is then partially cured to solid state, one side of the backing member is then coated with a mixture of thermosettable liquid resin and finely divided boron carbide particles and the resin is partially cured to solid state, the other side is coated with a similar mixture, larger boron carbide particles are applied to it and the resin is partially cured to solid state, such side of the article is coated with thermosettable liquid phenolic resin, the resin is partially cured to solid state and such resin, including previously applied partially cured resins, is cured to final cross-linked and permanently set form.
摘要:
Neutron absorbing articles, such as those in plate form suitable for use in a storage rack for spent nuclear fuel and having such properties as to make them useful in such application for long periods of time, are made by an improved one-step curing method in which a mixture of boron carbide particles, powdered phenolic resin and a minor proportion of a liquid medium which boils at a temperature below 200 C, preferably water, is compacted to desired article form and is cured at an elevated temperature, without simultaneous imposition of pressure in compacting or pressing means, so as to cause bonding of the irreversibly cured phenolic polymer resulting to the boron carbide particles and production of the neutron absorber in desired form. The described method is also employable when a proportion of the boron carbide particles, e.g. 1/10 to 9/10, is replaced by a diluent compound.
