PROCESS FOR ENCAPSULATING RADIOACTIVE ORGANIC LIQUIDS IN A RESIN

This invention is directed to a process for encapsulating low level radioactive liquid waterinsoluble organic wastes into a solid form suitable for burial. The process is characterized by contacting one part by weight of said waste with less than one part by weight of a particulate, crosslinked, org...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	This invention is directed to a process for encapsulating low level radioactive liquid waterinsoluble organic wastes into a solid form suitable for burial. The process is characterized by contacting one part by weight of said waste with less than one part by weight of a particulate, crosslinked, organic liquid -swellable, organic liquid-insoluble polymer to provide discrete, noncoalescent, gelled particles of said polymer and said waste; dispersing from 0.1 to 3 parts by weight of said gelled particles essentially uniformly in one part by weight of a curable liquid resin selected from the group consisting of unsaturated polyester resins, vinyl ester resins, or mixtures thereof and curing said liquid resin to a solid with said gelled particles encased therein. 27,584A-F
