RADIOISOTOPE AND RADIATION APPLICATIONS QUARTERLY PROGRESS REPORT. SECTION I. USE OF INTRINSIC RADIOACTIVE TRACERS FOR PROCESS CONTROL. SECTION II. RADIATION-INDUCED GRAFT-POLYMERIZATION STUDIES

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

Research was continued in the areas of intrinsic radioactive tracers for industrial process control and the influence of structural factors in radiation- induced graft polymerization. The use of in-process isotope neutron soarces to produce short-lived radiotraces is discussed. A 10c Po--Be neutron source was obtained for exploratory experiments. The design and construction of a neutronsource storage shield and an activatioa-cell holder are underway. The effect of structural factors oii the eIficiency of free-radical site formation in acrylate and methacrylate polymers was emphasized. Site measurements versus dose were made for poly-n-hexylmethacrylate. Two additional methods for measuring free-radical conceiitrations, a chemical method … continued below

Site measurements versus dose were made for poly-n-hexylmethacrylate. Two additional methods for measuring free-radical conceiitrations, a chemical method employing diphenylpicrylhydrazyl and hydroquinone and a method based on molecular-weight decreases, were developed. The grafting studies were continued. (M.C.G.)
