Abstract

See full text

The alloy contains, expressed in atomic percentages, 9 to 12% of indium and 4 to 5.35% of cadmium, the remainder consisting of silver with the exception of unavoidable impurities in very low quantities. The alloy preferably contains 9 to 10% of indium and 4.35% to 5.35% of cadmium. The alloy can be used in the form of pellets or bars placed inside a tubular casing, in order to form a neutron-absorber component of a rod cluster for controlling the reactivity of a pressurized water nuclear reactor.
