Chapter 705, Protective Clothing

Next, the advantages and disadvantages of separating uranium from centrifuges and some technical parameters are summarized, which are roughly as follows.

Advantages: high separation efficiency, up to more than 95%; Low environmental impact; The process is simple and the equipment cost is low.

Disadvantages: difficult to manufacture, high technical requirements; The process consumes a lot of energy and has high energy consumption; In addition, the manufactured centrifuges are dangerous and require a high degree of safety management.

It's just that the shortcomings are not too important, because the centrifuge is stronger than anything else, and everyone involved in the centrifuge project today is very happy. In the evening, the laboratory did not know where to bring in a batch of supplies to feed everyone.

Jiang Yan thought of the problem of protection when he was producing centrifuges, because he traveled through the previous two years, the epidemic broke out in the world, so Jiang Yan also paid attention to the problem of protective clothing, and by the way, he also took a look at some special protective clothing, and these data were basically recorded in his mind.

Nuclear radiation protective clothing, also known as radiation protective clothing, is a special clothing specially developed for protection against X-ray and γ-rays. There are many styles of nuclear radiation protective clothing according to different working environments, such as airtight, one-piece, white coat and so on. These styles also have long sleeves, short sleeves, sleeveless, aprons, glandular protection, lower body protection, etc.

Nuclear protective clothing, that is, nuclear radiation protective clothing, is to provide shielding for X, γ, β, α particles, is a new technology of modified polyethylene (PE) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC), the polyethylene and polyvinyl chloride modified by this technology have the ability to resist nuclear radiation, and can be used as nuclear radiation shielding materials. This polymer liner is made of tantalum, which is comparable to lead in terms of material attenuation coefficient, resistance γ, X-rays and β radiation, and can effectively absorb radiation. A fabric produced by polymer liners and natural or synthetic non-woven materials, which are then used to prepare safety clothing that can resist radiation. This garment weighs only one-fifth of the weight of traditional lead garments. Its radiation resistance is superior to that of existing protective clothing. The polymer lining can be modified to make its electronic layer similar to the electronic layer of heavy metals, which can absorb nuclear radiation.

A nuclear protective suit is a lightweight, durable polymeric lipid that provides shielding against low to medium energy γ radiation, X-rays, high and low energy β particles, and α particles.

However, it is obvious that the new technology of modified polyethylene (PE) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) according to the current conditions, the country cannot produce it, and the most circulated on the Internet is the material of the first generation of protective clothing, the material of Eagle Sauce protective clothing, Jiang Yan calculated, it should not be difficult to produce according to the current conditions, so Jiang Yan is ready to get it out.

Get it out early to ensure the health of these patriotic scientists.

In the next two days, the main thing is to summarize and analyze the process and results, and form the corresponding technical materials to be handed in.

"Chief Engineer Ma, these days I have designed some protective equipment about nuclear radiation through thinking." Jiang Yan handed in the centrifuge summary and analysis materials on this day, and took out the corresponding theoretical design book of nuclear radiation protection equipment.

"Xiao Jiang, do you still understand this?" Chief Engineer Ma shouted this in private, who made Jiang Yan young, but it didn't mean anything else, and it seemed kind.

"Chief Engineer Ma, it's not like I've read some related books in the laboratory during this time, and I have some ideas in my head, and I like to think about it." Jiang Yan explained.

"It's a good thing to think too much, or you can make so many good things! Okay, this mission is over, and we have to wait for the notice from above;

In that case, let's stay and make the protective equipment before leaving, and I'll explain the situation to the above! Chief Engineer Ma is very supportive of Jiang Yan's continued work, which is a good thing, with protective equipment, researchers can be safer.

Not long after, Jiang Yan said goodbye and left. Chief Engineer Ma handed over all the information of the centrifuge to the leaders above.

After the leader got all the information and understood the situation, he immediately made a phone call to Mr.

"Sir, the uranium high-speed enrichment centrifuge that Jiang Yan is responsible for has been successful, and the problem of basic fuel for our nuclear weapons research and development has been solved, and there is no need to mobilize the masses to waste time and effort to refine uranium by local method!" The leader excitedly said to Mr. Lai, and began to seriously explain the specific situation, and Mr. Ma made additions from time to time.

"Wow, wow! Comrade Jiang Yan has made another contribution! After Mr. Lai, he planned to call Comrade Sunshine later.

"By the way, sir, this project was originally completed, and I am going to ask you about the follow-up arrangements for Comrade Jiang Yan.

As a result, Comrade Jiang Yan told me that he had designed some protective equipment against nuclear radiation. So, I applied to you, and Jiang Yan continued to carry out the follow-up protective equipment project. The leader then said earnestly.

"Oh? Comrade Jiang Yan, yes, yes! Okay, the project is approved, and I wish you all success! Mr. Lai cheered on the phone.

Maybe he was too happy, chatted for a long time, and after the greetings, the phone hung up, and Mr. Lai hurriedly got through Comrade Sunshine's residence and office, and it was already twelve o'clock in the morning.

"Jingle bell!" When the confidential secretary heard this, the phone rang.

"Hey, hello, may I ask who you are?"

Mr. Lai identified himself, and the confidential secretary went to inform Comrade Sunshine.

"Xiao Wu, what's the matter? I heard the phone ring. Comrade Sunshine asked.

"Chief, come to Mr.'s phone and say that there is something important." The confidential secretary made it clear that he was coming.

Wow.

"What's the matter?" Comrade Sunshine asked over the phone.

"Comrade Sunshine, the uranium high-speed enrichment centrifuge has been successful, and the progress of our nuclear weapons research and development work has been accelerated again! This time it was presided over by Jiang Yan, and Comrade Jiang Yan made a great contribution! Mr. Lai said excitedly on the phone.

"Yes, yes! What a great thing! Comrade Jiang Yanxiao, I still remember Sa, he is indeed a good comrade! Comrade Sunshine took a puff of cigarette and affirmed, his joy overflowing.

The two chatted for a long time, and they were very happy, hearing about this kind of good thing was enough to make their hearts satisfied.

In the following time, Jiang Yan began the research and preparation of nuclear radiation protection equipment.

Half a month passed quietly, and most of the project work of protective clothing was carried out.

On this day, someone in the lab came looking for me.

"Comrade Jiang Yan, I am Chen Wanchang, the leader of the computer research project team, and I have something to ask you for!" Chen Wanchang said.

"Hello, Team Leader Chen. Tell me something! Jiang Yan replied.

"Okay, Team Leader Zhang, our group is currently working on computer technology. We learned from the above that when we made a new type of machine tool, we left a technical document for a CNC machine tool.

I would like to ask you, do you know how to use computers? I would like to invite you to join our group to do research and manufacturing in computers. Chen Wanchang explained the intention.

"Yes, I did plan to study CNC machine tools at that time, but the conditions were not very allowable, so I handed in some ideas that had been sorted out. At that time, I also read some materials to understand computer technology, and I understood some of it. Jiang Yan said modestly.

"Comrade Jiang Yan, don't be kidding, I participated in the research of CNC machine tools at that time, and you must know more than a little bit about computer knowledge. I sincerely invite you to join our group! Chen Wanchang said with a serious expression and formally.

"Okay, Team Leader Chen, I promised! But at the moment, I still have protective clothing projects that are almost completed, and I need to take care of them on my side. Jiang Yan replied.

The two communicated for a while, and after communication, Chen Wanchang was in a better mood, and it was a wise decision to pull Jiang Yan into his group, because it could be seen that he really understood.
