Analyses of ORGDP toll enrichment uranium hexafluoride for CY 1985 through September 1986

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7186357
The average purity and /sup 235/U of natural feed received during CY 1985 through September 1986 per month by vendor are tabulated. Purity of natural feed, reactor return, and ORGDP product were respectively 99.981, 99.983, and 99.979 weight percentage UF/sub 6/. Composite wt % /sup 235/U for natural feed was 0.71104. The number of samples for each of the three categories are 197 for natural feed, 92 for reactor return and enriched feed, and 386 for product. Those specification properties which were observed to be present in Toll Enrichment samples during CY 1985 through September 1986 are presented. Natural and reactor return-enriched feed are by vendors. Fifteen results exceeded the specification value during CY 1985 through September 1986 (seven U-232 in French reactor return and eight Mo in Canada natural feed). Those metallic impurities observed in Toll Enrichment samples during CY 1985 through September 1986 are depicted. Natural and reactor return-enriched feed are by vendors.
