MATERIAL-EFFECTS OF NUCLEAR RADIATION ON CERTAIN FUEL TANK SEALANTS AND PRESSURE SEALANTS

MATERIAL-EFFECTS OF NUCLEAR RADIATION ON CERTAIN FUEL TANK SEALANTS AND PRESSURE SEALANTS

Studies were made to determine effects of nuclear radiation at ambient reactor temperature (without fuel immersion and during fuel immersion) upon specific physical properties of 3 sealing compounds, (EC 1610, EC-1520, PR-1422), and 7 other materials. The greatest change in physical properties occur...

Zusammenfassung:Studies were made to determine effects of nuclear radiation at ambient reactor temperature (without fuel immersion and during fuel immersion) upon specific physical properties of 3 sealing compounds, (EC 1610, EC-1520, PR-1422), and 7 other materials. The greatest change in physical properties occurred during irradiation at flux 2 (3000 kw, 20 hrs. Of the fuel tank sealants, EC-1520 appeared the least affected by nuclear radiation. Of the other materials, a carbon black material appeared to be the least affected by radiation.
