AN IMPROVED ZINC BROMIDE SHIELDING WINDOW

Abstract

An improved zinc bromide-filled shielding window for hot cell use was designed, constructed, and performance-tested. Bare steel surfaces under an argon atmosphere satisfactorily contained zinc bromide solution. No corrosion or deterioration of optical properties appear in a window which was installed in May 1961. This system is an improvement over the previously used painted surfaces in an air atmosphere. (Author)
