Creators

Description

The specification applies to pellets composed of mixtures of aluminum oxide and boron carbide which may be ultimately used in a reactor core, for example, in neutron absorber rods. The specification includes chemical requirements, physical properties (dimensions, density, boron carbide homogeneity, mechanical properties, and visual appearance), cleanliness, quality control, inspection, certification, packaging, and shipping
