Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Phoebus II Reactor required a neutron absorber material for criticality control and a neutron poison material for reducing the flux peak at the forward end of the fuel element. Normal B4C was chosen for the neutron absorbing material, and Cu was employed as the matrix. A feasibility study developed procedures for producijg uniform, dense, stable sheet material of Cu-20, 40, and 50 v/o normal B4C. The procedures were, with only slight modifications, translated to production operation to yield sheet from which Phoebus II control plates and end poison plates were made.

This book was released on 1960 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Associated with the ever increasing tendency to build nuclear reactors with long-life cores is the development of more stable nuclear fuels. Higher fuel loadings accompanied by a substantial depletion of fissioning atoms imply large changes in core reactivity. Under these conditions adequate continuous control becomes extremely difficult unless additional neutron absorbers are used. However, unlike the control rod poison material, these additional neutron absorbers must be consumed at a rate which can be matched to the depletion of the fuel. The element boron possesses qualities which make it ideal for this application.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: V. I. MATKOVICH During the meeting of the International Symposium on Boron held in October, 1972 in Tbilisi, U.S.S.R., the idea was proposed to assemble a review of boron and refractory borides by the specialists present. The advantages of such a work were immediately apparent. Such diverse applications of borides as in protective armor, nuclear reactors, coat ings, reinforcement, etc. can hardly all be presented in sufficient detail by a single author. On the other hand it was also recognized that with so much specialization, some areas of interest may not be covered. Within the last decade or two a number of areas have been developed in which the use of refractory borides is growing and improvements are being actively explored. Thus, a number of borides have considerable potential as reinforcing material for plastics or light metals, though only boron fibers have been firmly established up to the present. Ap plication of flakes and films for two-dimensional reinforcement appears attractive, although the high cost of materials and development repre sents a considerable barrier. A number of borides have been used to manufacture lightweight protec tive armor. In this area relatively fast changes seem to be taking place as improvements in performance and weight are made. Boron carbide has found considerable use in this application and new developments exploit the light weight of beryllium borides.
