Abstract

1,115,278. Reactor shields. UNITED KINGDOM ATOMIC ENERGY AUTHOR. ITY. 9 March, 1967 [25 March, 1966], No. 13436/66. Heading G6C. In a nuclear reactor, the pressure vessel is encased in glass filaments bonded in epoxy resin. In the event of a pressure vessel failure, the reactor coolant is retained together with those reactor members subjected to outwardly directed forces. A neutron absorber material may be located in the space between the bonded layer and the vessel so as to be absorbed into the coolant upon vessel fracture.
