Corrosion behavior of iron-chrome alloys in liquid bismuth

Mechanical Engineering Journal, 2022
For the mass production of astatine-211, a promising radiopharmaceutical for cancer treatment, we have proposed the innovative “Liquid Bismuth Target System.” The target window in this system must be made from a material that resists the highly corrosive

Physical properties of heavy liquid-metal coolants in a wide temperature range

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2011
The pulse-phase method, the gamma-attenuation method and the method of dumping oscillation of a crucible with a melt were used for measuring the velocity of sound, the density and the kinematic viscosity of a set of liquid-metal coolants for perspective ...

Thermochemistry of Polonium Evaporation from LBE

Thermo, 2021
Polonium is formed in relatively large quantities in lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) cooled nuclear systems. Because of its radiotoxicity and volatility, a good understanding of the chemical equilibria governing polonium release from LBE is required. In this

Analysis of strain distribution of lead–bismuth eutectic inside a stainless steel cup by wavelength-resolved neutron imaging

Nuclear Materials and Energy
Lead-bismuth eutectic has emerged as a promising candidate for liquid metal coolant for Gen-IV nuclear reactors. Lead-bismuth eutectic is a unique material that expands gradually within the solid state.
