Definitions

  • the invention relates to an elastomeric neutron protection material for decelerating fast neutrons, comprising an elastomeric material having a high hydrogen content and being preferably combined with an absorber material, e.g., boron, for decelerating slow electrons.
  • an absorber material e.g., boron
  • Known elastomeric neutron protection materials of the kind indicated are silicone elastomer-based (German disclosure Letter 28 22 494) or polyurethane-based (German disclosure Letter 32 38 831) and offer important advantages over polyethylene and polypropylene, or even simpler protection materials like water, paraffin and the like, with respect to mechanical and chemical properties, particularly temperature resistivity, toughness, resilient deformability, workability, and chemical durability.
  • the hydrogen content which is the determining factor for the neutron decelerating capability, however, is considerably less than in polyethylene and polypropylene (14.3 weight percent), polyamide (11.6 weight percent) or water (11.1 weight percent), and amounts to about a maximum of 5 to 7 weight percent.
  • Further consideration of other known neutron protection materials (German disclosure Letter 32 38 831) shows that protection materials were not available which combine in themselves good mechanical and chemical properties with a high hydrogen content similar to that of polyethylene.
  • a material which comprises a polymeric reaction product of a reaction between a) at least one polybutadiene-based polyol having a hydrogen content comparable to that of polyethylene, and b) at least one aliphatic diisocyanate, the reaction product having a hydrogen content of at least about 8 weight percent.
  • This composition thus provides an elastomeric neutron protection material which exhibits good mechanical, chemical, and physical properties, particularly easy workability, chemical durability, and temperature resistivity, with a particularly high hydrogen content.
  • Elastomeric neutron protection materials in accordance with the invention can be simply prepared like known polyurethanes and have, similar to the latter, very favorable mechanical, chemical and physical properties; the hydrogen content, however, is considerably higher, i.e., normally 10 to 12.5 weight percent, which is up to double the hydrogen content of known neutron protection materials having comparable elastomeric properties. In any case, a hydrogen content of more than 8 weight percent is desired and readily obtainable.
  • the neutron protection materials according to the invention can be easily combined with absorber materials, particularly boron or boron-containing substances for absorbing slow neutrons.
  • absorber materials particularly boron or boron-containing substances for absorbing slow neutrons.
  • an absorber material such as boron carbide or boron nitride
  • the absorber material can also be provided in chemically bonded form; for instance, the polyols can be partly or totally provided in the form of organic boron compounds, e.g., diol boric acid ester.
  • neutron protection material according to the invention can also be combined with other radiation protection materials, for example with heavy metals or heavy metal compounds, for example in finely divided form as filler material, in order to achieve an additional protection against ionizing radiation.
  • the preparation of the neutron protection materials in accordance with the invention basically may be performed in the same manner as the preparation of known polyurethanes, and with the use of corresponding catalysts. If the two components are brought to reaction, the OH radicals of the polyol react with the NCO radicals of the isocyanate.
  • the favorable properties of the neutron protection materials according to the invention are based essentially due on the fact that polybutadiene-based polyol have a hydrogen content similar to that of polyethylene and result 5 in reaction products which have a high elasticity and a high durability against shock loads.
  • the aliphatic diisocyanates used in accordance with the invention have higher hydrogen contents than the usually employed aromatic diisocyanates and result in reaction products having a high temperature resistivity,
  • particularly trifunctional crosslinking agents can be employed which offer advantages because of their high reactivity; such crosslinking agents are not applicable with aromatic isocyanates.
  • Particularly well suited are crosslinking agents from the group nitrolo tripropanol, triethanolamine and nitrotributanol.
