Graphite Sheets Feature




The graphite sheets is one of the reducing materials and reflective materials used in nuclear reactor construction. Early nuclear reactors are mainly graphite piles. At present, most of the production reactors (mainly used to convert uranium 238 into plutonium 239, a nuclear reactor for nuclear weapons charge) still uses graphite crucible graphite board as a reduction material.

The graphite sheets has a high melting point and a high high temperature strength, which can be used for a long time near 1000 ° C. This is superior to water and heavy water (water and heavy water can be used as a deceleration material). It has a small absorption probability of hot neutrons, but the deceleration ability of the heat neutron is not as heavy as weigh. Therefore, the nuclear reactor in the graphite plate is a nuclear reactor with a larger body.
