Significance and Use | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Uranyl nitrate solution is used as a feed material for conversion to the hexafluoride as well as for direct conversion to the oxide. In order to be suitable for this purpose, the material must meet certain criteria for uranium content, isotopic composition, acidity, radioactivity, and impurity content. These methods are designed to show whether a given material meets the specifications for these items described in Specification C788. An assay is performed to determine whether the material has the specified uranium content. Determination of the isotopic content of the uranium is made to establish whether the effective fissile content is in accordance with the purchaser’s specifications. Acidity, organic content, and alpha, beta, and gamma activity are measured to establish that they do not exceed their maximum limits. Impurity content is determined to ensure that the maximum concentration limit of certain impurity elements is not exceeded. Impurity concentrations are also required for calculation of the equivalent boron content (EBC), and the total equivalent boron content (TEBC). |
