Creators

Description

A review has been conducted of the use of protective coatings in the nuclear industry with emphasis on the performance of Three Mile Island Unit 2 (TMI-2) coating systems. TMI recovery experiences; lessons learned with coatings; and research related to contamination, decontamination, and radioactivity penetration into epoxy coatings (qualified per 10CFR50, Appendix B, for use in the TMI-2 containment building) have been summarized. Technical findings compiled, and the generic implications of the TMI-2 data analyzed
