Online monitoring the hydrolysis of uranium hexafluoride for intermediates by cryogenic layering and FTIR
Uranium hexafluoride (UF6) is a commonly utilized material feedstock in uranium enrichment processes due to its high vapor pressure and ease of sublimation. When exposed to air, UF6 undergoes spontaneous hydrolysis to form uranyl fluoride (UO2F2) particulates which are utilized for the detection of...
