DECOMPOSITION RATES FOR POLYPHENYL REACTOR COOLANTS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4628630

A brief outline is presented of the results of the experimental program on polyphenyl decomposition rates, from the laboratory-scale capsule irradiations to the OMRE. The decomposition rates are tabulated for the terphenyls, Santowax OM and R, diphenyl, and OMRE coolant. The calculation of the coolant makeup rate for the SENN reactor is considered. (D.L.C.)
