OSTI ID:4653651

A semiautomatic reader is described that was developed for use with lithium fluoride dosimeters. Developmental work on a new type of personnel gamma dosimeter is reported. A technique was developed for the determination of U/sup 235/ collected in two types of filter medium. A monitor system for sewage is described and a method for determining Be contamination on ceramics is discussed. A high expansion foam for fire control with a mininium of water was developed, an improvement in the design of half-mask respirators allows better portability and increased efficiency of operation, and a sprayable polyurethane safety flooring system was developed and tested for use in high-explosive handling areas.
