Abstract
The release of 137Cs into an Ar flow during the reaction of 137CsI and 137CsOH–137Cs2CO3 with molten lead at a temperature of ~852 K was studied. It was determined that during the heating of Pb0 with 137CsI, 137CsOH–137Cs2CO3, and 137CsI–137CsOH–137Cs2CO3 from 2 to 8% of 137Cs can pass into the gas flow. Based on the distribution of 137Cs among the elements of the gas purification system, it was concluded that the chemical and disperse composition of the compounds containing 137Cs in the gas phase is fairly heterogeneous. Volatile 137Cs compounds formed on heating 137CsI, 137CsOH–137Cs2CO3, and 137CsI–137CsOH–137Cs2CO3 with Pb0 in a gas flow at ~852 K can contain both charged aerosols and aerosols without an electric charge.
