THE EFFECT OF REACTOR IRRADIATION ON CANDIDATE ORGANIC COOLANTS. Final Report on PT-IP-11D Interim Report I on PT-IP-50D

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4345983
To determine the effect of reactor irradiation on the properties of candidate organic coolants, two sets of five capsules each, which contained biphenyl, monoisopropyl biphenyl (MIPB), and mixtures of these two materials, were exposed in the 2A test hole of the KW reactor. Five sets of three capsules each, which contained biphenyl, MIPB, and monomethyl biphenyl were exposed in the Snout II test hole of the KW reactor. In the latter series of irradiations, the exposure temperature was varied by altering the extent of gamma heating. The resuIts obtained from these irradiations are presented. (M.H.H.)
