Observations on the indirect action of ionizing radiation on compounds containing primary amine, secondary amines N-alkylamides and peptide-bond eonfigurations are correlated in terms of related mechanisms involving the C-N linkage as the locus of chemical change. The radiation chemistry of aqueous solutions of various amino acids and proteins is considered in detail from this viewpoint. Effects of oxygen and other solutes are discussed. Particular reference is given to: (a) studies of the radiation-induced oxidation of protein in oxygenated solutions (b) studies of radical-radical reaction in oxygen-free protein solutions containing a simple C/sup 14-/ labeled organic solute such as CH/sub 3/C/sup 14/OOH.

This text on radiation chemistry covers a number of topics, including the development of radiation chemistry, sources of high-energy radiation, dosimetry, organic materials and solids and the applications of high-energy radiation in chemical synthesis and in commercial processes.
Corrosion of nuclear materials, i.e. the interaction between these materials and their environments, is a major issue for plant safety as well as for operation and economic competitiveness. Understanding these corrosion mechanisms, the systems and materials they affect, and the methods to accurately measure their incidence is of critical importance to the nuclear industry. Combining assessment techniques and analytical models into this understanding allows operators to predict the service life of corrosion-affected nuclear plant materials, and to apply the most appropriate maintenance and mitigation options to ensure safe long term operation. This book critically reviews the fundamental corrosion mechanisms that affect nuclear power plants and facilities. Initial sections introduce the complex field of nuclear corrosion science, with detailed chapters on the different types of both aqueous and non aqueous corrosion mechanisms and the nuclear materials susceptible to attack from them. This is complemented by reviews of monitoring and control methodologies, as well as modelling and lifetime prediction approaches. Given that corrosion is an applied science, the final sections review corrosion issues across the range of current and next-generation nuclear reactors, and across such nuclear applications as fuel reprocessing facilities, radioactive waste storage and geological disposal systems. With its distinguished editor and international team of expert contributors, Nuclear corrosion science and engineering is an invaluable reference for nuclear metallurgists, materials scientists and engineers, as well as nuclear facility operators, regulators and consultants, and researchers and academics in this field. Comprehensively reviews the fundamental corrosion mechanisms that affect nuclear power plants and facilities Chapters assess different types of both aqueous and non aqueous corrosion mechanisms and the nuclear materials susceptible to attack from them Considers monitoring and control methodologies, as well as modelling and lifetime prediction approaches
