SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH DEPARTMENT FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF TECHNOLOGIES AND EQUIPMENT FOR SPECIAL NON-NUCLEAR MATERIALS AND ISOTOPE PRODUCTS

Brief information about the product range:

- vacuum-tight beryllium foils with a thickness of 20 microns featuring brushed and polished surface;

- beryllium x-ray windows of various shapes with a diameter of up to 100 mm on flanges made of various materials (stainless steel, vacuum-fused copper, etc.);

- x-ray lenses made of refractive beryllium with curvature radius of 100 to 2,000 microns;

- filter elements, including those with a metal-composite membrane allowing for ultra-fine filtration and have the holding capacity of less than 50 microns;

- devices made of nanoporous beryllium intended to eliminate the speckle from synchrotron radiation beam images (speckle suppressors);

- distilled metallic scandium with the purity of 99.99 to 99.999%;

- products impregnated with hydrogen isotopes (deuterium and tritium).

Brief information about the services provided:

- development of new structural and functional materials based on beryllium;

- development of new materials and devices for controlling x-ray and synchrotron radiation;

- development of installations for tritium handling;

- development and manufacture of tritium-rich targets and other components for devices that use tritium;

- decontamination of materials and components of installations contaminated with tritium (detritization);

- development of installations and production sites for the production of tantalum powders of the condenser class;

- development of innovative methods for separating light element isotopes using physical and chemical methods.
