Hello everyone...
I've been trying to make a list about moderator materials used in nuclear reactors. So far I've found some but still wondering if there exists more than I learned and also wondering if they are correct.
Please see the list below and feel free to correct my mistakes or to add new materials.
- Deuterium
- Oxygen
- Hydrogen
- Carbon (Graphite)
- Beryllium
- Lithium
- Boron-10
- Boron-11
- Vanadium
- H20 (Water)
- D20 (Heavy Water)
- BeO (Beryllium Oxide)
- ZrH0.9, ZrH1.5, ZrH1.6, ZrH1.65, ZrH1.7, ZrH1.85
- ZrH2 (Zirconium Hydride)
- YH2 (Yttrium (II) Hydride)
- YH3 (Yttrium (III) Hydride)
- LiH (Lithium Hydride)
- ZrD2 (Zirconium Deuteride)
- UZrH (Uranium Zirconium Hydride)
- UH3 (Uranium Hydride)
- TiH2 (Titanium Hydride)
- C19H16 (Triphenylmethane)
- FLiBe (Mixture of LiF-Lithium Floride- and BeF2-Beryllium Floride)
And please do not hesitate to share your knowledge about the materials.
Best regards...
