preparation example Construction

[0020] The preparation process of the neutron-shielding aluminum-based composite material of the present invention specifically includes the following steps:

[0021] (1) Take the raw material powder by the composition ratio of the shielding material;

[0022] (2) A double-cone high-efficiency mixer is used for mixing, and argon protection is poured into the mixing process, and the grinding medium is bearing steel balls;

[0023] (3) Use the cold isostatic pressing method to press the blank. During the cold isostatic pressing process, a rubber jacket is used to isolate the hydraulic medium (anti-wear hydraulic oil) from the powder. The cold isostatic pressing pressure is 100-200 MPa, and the holding time is 10-40min;

[0024] (4) After the blank is repaired into a regular shape, the sheath is prepared by using a pure aluminum sheet, and the cold isostatic pressed blank is put into the sheath;

[0025] (5) Degas the sheathed blank at a temperature of 300-450°C, and when the v...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a neutron shielding aluminum-based composite material and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of nuclear shielding materials. Background technique [0002] With the popularization and application of nuclear technology, the research on nuclear radiation shielding has been paid more and more attention. High-energy fast neutrons have strong penetrating power. Although commonly used shielding materials such as boron steel and boron carbide composite materials have good shielding properties for thermal neutrons, they are difficult to use for high-energy fast neutron shielding. For the shielding of fast neutrons, fast neutrons need to be moderated first by light elements (such as hydrogen in water), and then slow neutrons with lower energy are shielded by neutron absorbers and the like. However, the currently commonly used shielding materials have a single shielding effect, and there are some defects in so...
