Evaluation of SAES COMBOGETTER(r) for Use in Nuclear Material Transportation Packages

摘要

This report summarizes the testing of SAES COMBOGETTER(reg-sign) and evaluates its potential use as a hydrogen getter in nuclear material transportation packages. We measured the getters hydrogen uptake capacity, and uptake rates under different conditions including temperature, gas composition, and poisons. We also compared this getter to another commercially available hydrogen getter.
