52 Compound ROBATEL no. 9 TM and no. 10 TM With a binder based on plaster, these neutron materials can be used for any protection which does not support any thermal or any particular mechanical constraints. It is always placed in metal casing, hermetically closed so that it maintains its optimal characteristics. In this case, access to the interior of the casing at the time of implementation should be as broad as possible. In the absence of containment, it should take account of the gradual loss of the free water by drying. This type of material was subject to irradiation tests until a fluence of 1, thermal neutrons/cm². No apparent degradation was observed. Chemical composition: boron, calcium, carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, sulfur, miscellaneous. Density : 1,15 to 1,25 g/cm³. Material approved by : CEA, AREVA, EDF. Wall CP9 (PPB) 52
53 Compound ROBATEL no. 21 TM and no. 22 TM Neutrophage materials made of a base of polyester resin. They have independent properties to any containment. They are generally molded to the shape and size desired and can be, if necessary, machined. They enable to make protection with a high mechanical strength and good heat resistance. This type of material was subjected to irradiation testing until an integrated flux of 1, thermal neutrons/cm². No apparent degradation was observed. Chemical composition: aluminum, boron, calcium, carbon, chlorine, hydrogen, oxygen, miscellaneous. Density : 1,20 to 1,30 g/cm³. Material approved by : CEA, AREVA, EDF. Facilities for 26 reactors in France, 1 in Korea, 1 in South Africa and 22 in China. 53
54 Compound ROBATEL PNT7 TM (Thermal Neutron Protection no. 7) and PNT3 TM These neutron-absorbing materials are as fine mortar and may be used for any protection subjected to thermal and mechanical stresses. They are preferably introduced in metal boxes, closed tightly so that they retain its optimum characteristics. In the absence of containment, it should take account of the gradual loss of the free water by drying. The crude mortar exactly reproduces the surface of the mold. Its ease of decontamination can be improved by applying a surface coating. This material is classified M0. Chemical composition: aluminum, boron, calcium, iron, hydrogen, oxygen, miscellaneous. Density : 1,75 to 1,95 g/cm³. Material approved by : CEA, AREVA, EDF, US Department of Energy. 54
