Equipment and Methods of Post-Reactor Studies of Materials in a Block of Shielded Enclosures at Institute of Reactor Materials

详细

Data on a shielded-enclosure block, which is part of the scientific-research complex at the Institute of Reactor Materials, are presented. The equipment for the primary post-reactor studies and methods of flaw detection in objects are described. Articles are cut into blanks and samples on in-box remote-controlled machines. The equipment and methods for determining the physical and mechanical properties and the elemental and isotopic composition, analyzing gas mixtures, and performing metallographic, microstructural, and electrochemical studies are listed. The most significant and interesting results and publications on the post-reactors studies of spent fuel and other structural elements of reactor facilities are presented.
