Description

Irradiation-resistant high-temperature-resistant fast neutron shielding material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of radiation protection and nuclear safety, in particular to an irradiation-resistant high-temperature-resistant fast neutron shielding material and a preparation method thereof.
Background
At present, the neutron shielding mainly adopts materials with high hydrogen and high boron content to carry out shielding materials, the penetration capacity of fast neutrons is strong, the shielding difficulty is high, the materials with high hydrogen content are generally needed to be used for slowing down, and then the materials with high neutron absorption cross section are used for absorbing. The organic material has high hydrogen content, is the first choice of the fast neutron shielding material, and the common organic shielding material comprises a polyethylene-based shielding material, a rubber-based shielding material, an epoxy-based shielding material and the like. However, the use temperature of the organic shielding material is lower, for example, the use temperature of the polyethylene and rubber-based shielding material is not more than 100 ℃, and the use temperature of the epoxy-based shielding material is not more than 160 ℃.
In addition, molecular chains of the organic shielding material are easy to break and age in the irradiation process, and when the accumulated fast neutron fluence of the organic shielding material reaches 10 14 n/cm 2 When the material is aged, the material becomes hard and brittle; when the fast neutron fluence reaches 10 15 n/cm 2 Mechanics of time, materialThe performance is obviously reduced, and the shielding material is continuously pulverized and fails along with the extension of the irradiation time; on the outer side of the reactor pressure vessel, the neutron accumulation flux reaches 10 in the reactor life 19 n/cm 2 Above, the organic shielding material cannot meet the irradiation aging requirement.
Disclosure of Invention
The technical problem to be solved by the invention is as follows: the invention provides a radiation-resistant high-temperature-resistant fast neutron shielding material and a preparation method thereof, which solve the problems of radiation aging and thermal aging of the existing organic shielding material in service.
The invention is realized by the following technical scheme:
the radiation-resistant high-temperature-resistant fast neutron shielding material comprises raw materials including 75-95% of hydrogen-containing inorganic salt, 0.1-5% of boron carbide and the balance of inorganic non-metallic gel material in percentage by mass, wherein the hydrogen-containing inorganic salt, the inorganic non-metallic gel material and the boron carbide are contained in the raw materials; the density of the irradiation-resistant high-temperature-resistant fast neutron shielding material is 1.8g/cm 3 -2.4g/cm 3 Hydrogen density of 0.07g/cm 3 -0.09g/cm 3
Currently, two problems exist with commonly used organic shielding materials: 1) And (3) thermal aging: the use temperature of the organic shielding material is lower, such as the use temperature of polyethylene and rubber-based shielding material is not more than 100 ℃, and the use temperature of epoxy-based shielding material is not more than 160 ℃; 2) Neutron irradiation aging: molecular chains of the organic shielding material are easy to break and age in the irradiation process, and when the accumulated fast neutron fluence of the organic shielding material reaches 10 14 n/cm 2 When the material is aged, the material becomes hard and brittle; when the fast neutron fluence reaches 10 15 n/cm 2 In the process, the mechanical property of the material is obviously reduced, and the shielding material is continuously pulverized and fails along with the prolonging of the irradiation time; on the outer side of the reactor pressure vessel, the neutron accumulation flux reaches 10 in the reactor life 19 n/cm 2 Above, organic shieldingThe material cannot meet the irradiation aging requirement.
Based on the technical background, the invention provides a high-efficiency irradiation-resistant fast neutron shielding material which mainly comprises inorganic salt with high hydrogen content and an inorganic binder, and a small amount of boron carbide is added. The fast neutron shielding is firstly moderated by using a material with high hydrogen content (inorganic salt containing hydrogen), then is absorbed by using a shielding material (boron carbide) with a high neutron absorption cross section, and particularly needs to be analyzed according to a neutron energy spectrum. For fast neutron shielding of a reactor, the moderating effect is main, and in the shielding material described in the invention, the mass fraction of inorganic salt with high hydrogen content accounts for more than 75%, and the boron carbide content is 0.1% -5%. The hydrogen density in the finished shielding material is 0.07g/cm 3- 0.09g/cm 3 Density of 1.8g/cm 3 -2.4g/cm 3 Moderate mechanical property and neutron irradiation resistance of 5 multiplied by 10 19 n/cm 2 The composite material is 1000 times higher than organic shielding material, and the maximum use temperature reaches 200 ℃. Compared with the high polymer material, the high polymer material has no thermal aging and radiation aging problems in the use process, and does not release toxic gas. The cost is low, and the production cost of the shielding material disclosed by the invention is far lower than that of lead-boron polyethylene, epoxy resin and other organic shielding materials.
More preferably, the hydrogen-containing inorganic salt is aluminum hydroxide.
Increasing the hydrogen density is one of the targets of developing neutron shielding materials, and many materials have higher hydrogen content, such as organic substances like polyethylene, liquid hydrogen, water, sodium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, aluminum hydroxide, zirconium hydride, titanium hydride, and the like. Theoretically, these materials have a good shielding effect when used as a shielding material, and it is common knowledge to improve the neutron shielding performance of the material by increasing the hydrogen density. However, substances having a high hydrogen content are not suitable as a shielding material, and therefore, they are required to be comprehensively considered in view of their chemical properties, production costs, and use environments. As for cement, hydroxide is generally alkaline and is a strong coagulant, ordinary cement and other shielding cement cannot be added with hydroxide powder in a large amount in the construction process, and if sodium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide and other substances are added into the cement, the cement can be quickly solidified within minutes or seconds, so that the materials cannot be normally molded, therefore, the added substances in the cement are screened, and experiments require that the addition of other components cannot influence the service performance of the cement. The aluminum hydroxide provided by the invention is relatively proper in ratio, does not react with cement, is beneficial to later-stage compression molding and is beneficial to obtaining the shielding material with high hydrogen density.
Further preferably, the inorganic non-metallic gel material is CA80 or CA70 aluminate cement.
The invention preferably adopts the inorganic nonmetal gel material as CA80 or CA70 aluminate cement, which has good bonding effect and higher strength after dehydration. The aluminate cement hydrate has strong radiation resistance, and the radiation resistance of the aluminate cement hydrate serving as a bonding component can reach 5 multiplied by 10 19 n/cm 2 Its good irradiation resistance has been demonstrated in shielding concrete for nuclear power plants.
Further preferably, the boron carbide in the raw material is a powder having an average particle diameter of 0.5 μm to 7 μm, and further preferably a powder having an average particle diameter of 3 μm to 7 μm.
The excessive consumption of the boron carbide powder can occupy the content of high-hydrogen components and influence the hydrogen content in the shielding material, thereby influencing the shielding effect of the shielding material on fast neutrons. If the dosage of the boron carbide is too low, the absorption capacity of the moderated neutrons is insufficient, and the shielding effect of the shielding material on fast neutrons is also influenced.
The hardness of the boron carbide powder is higher than that of the steel die, when the steel die is formed, if the particle size of the boron carbide powder is too large, the boron carbide particles can seriously scratch the die, and the smaller the particle size of the boron carbide is, the smaller the damage to the steel die is. However, the particle size of the boron carbide powder should not be too fine, and if the particle size of the boron carbide powder is too fine, the higher the content of impurity phase boron oxide, the higher the boron content in the material, and the smaller the particle size of the boron carbide powder, the higher the price, the more the economic efficiency of the shielding material is affected.
A preparation method of an irradiation-resistant high-temperature-resistant fast neutron shielding material is used for preparing the irradiation-resistant high-temperature-resistant fast neutron shielding material, and the mixed raw materials are subjected to compression molding treatment; and curing the pressed semi-finished product to finally obtain the neutron shielding material.
According to the preparation method of the high-efficiency irradiation-resistant fast neutron shielding material, provided by the invention, the density of the shielding material is improved by a method of pressing and curing combination, the porosity is reduced, the defect of a large-size hole with the diameter of more than 1mm is overcome, the components are uniform, the generation of dose hot spots is avoided, and the shielding efficiency of the shielding material is improved.

Further preferably, the press forming includes one or two of steel die forming and isostatic pressing.
There are three methods for press forming of the present invention, namely, a steel die forming method, an isostatic pressing forming method, and a steel die forming and isostatic pressing forming combined method. In the steel die forming, the shielding material is designed into a steel die according to the final size of a product, a shielding block is directly pressed, a flat plate large block can be processed, and the required shielding block is processed by a water jet cutter and a diamond slicer. The shielding block can also be directly prepared by an isostatic pressing method, but the shielding block has irregular appearance and needs to be processed.
More preferably, the shielding material is formed by a steel die and then formed by cold isostatic pressing.
The optimal scheme during molding is that the shielding block is molded by a steel die at first, the density of the shielding block is further improved by isostatic pressing, the shielding block molded by the steel die is neat in appearance, and the shielding block can be prepared in net size as long as the design of the die is proper. The density of the shielding material can be improved by more than 10-20% by cold isostatic pressing treatment, so that the shielding efficiency of the shielding material can be improved, and the thickness of the shielding block can be reduced under the same shielding condition.
More preferably, the molding pressure of the steel mold molding is 10MPa-100MPa.
The pressure of the steel die forming is preferably designed to be 10MPa-100MPa, and if the pressure is too high, the abrasion of the boron carbide powder to the die is large.
More preferably, the isostatic compaction is performed at a compaction pressure of 50MPa to 300MPa.
Further preferably, the maintenance treatment method comprises the steps of clear water maintenance and maintenance treatment in a maintenance box; the curing time is 1 to 7 days.

According to the actual situation, baking treatment is carried out after clean water maintenance or maintenance box maintenance is finished, the baking temperature is 100-120 ℃, and the baking time is 0.5-3 days.
