Neutron absorbing concrete wall and method for producing such concrete wall

Abstract

The object of the invention relates to a neutron absorbing concrete wall (10), which concrete wall (10) has an internal delimiting surface (11a), and an external delimiting surface (11b) on an opposite side to the internal delimiting surface (11a), the essence of which is that it contains a first concrete layer (13a) on the side of the internal delimiting surface (11a), and a second concrete layer (13b) on the side of the external delimiting surface (11b), which first concrete layer (13a) contains at least 0.05 mass % boron-10 isotope (10B), and the second concrete layer (13b) is formed as heavyweight concrete. The object of the invention also relates to a method for creating a neutron radiation absorbing concrete wall (10) that has an internal delimiting surface (11a), and an external delimiting surface (11b) on an opposite side to the internal delimiting surface (11a), the essence of which is a first concrete layer (13a) containing at least 0.05 mass % boron-10 isotope (10B) is formed on the side of the internal delimiting surface (11a), and a second concrete layer (13b) created as heavyweight concrete is formed on the side of the external delimiting surface (11b). The object of the invention also relates to a neutron absorbing concrete wall (10), the essence of which is that it is formed as heavyweight concrete containing at least 0.05 mass % boron-10 isotope (10B).
