DRYING OF GLOVE BOX ATMOSPHERES

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4821733
The results of work to obtain and maintain dry argon atmospheres are presented. Procedures for operating dry boxes equipped with the drying system are outlined. The system of a silica gel tower followed by a commercial electro- dryer was chosen for use with the glove boxes. Although BaO and P/sub 2/O/sub 5/ had better drying powers, they were less attractive for long term drying operations. (M.C.G.)
