INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS OF RADIOISOTOPES (in Spanish)

Journal Article · · Energia nuclear (Madrid)
OSTI ID:4177548
The industrial uses of radioisotopes are divided into 3 groups and discussed. Group 1 (effects of material on radiation) includes radiography, densitometry, analytical methods based on radiation penetration, liquid level control, control of packing, and thickness measurement. Group 2 (effects of radiation on materials) includes static electricity elimination, luminescence activation, sterilization of food, and activation of polymerization and other reactions. Group three methods are tracer techniques such as leak detection, following movement of fluids, measurement of wear, and study of corrosion, diffusion, detergency, catalysis, kinetics, and reaction mechanisms.
