NUKEM is now applying its technical sophistication and market strength to bring a new supply of high quality stable isotopes for the Primary Water Chemistry applications. NUKEM has already supplied nuclear reactors in Europe and Asia with stable isotopes and is offering these competitively priced, high-quality products to the U.S. market as well.

Stable isotopes for the nuclear industry
Li-7 (enriched lithium hydroxide monohydrate) for the alkalization of the primary circulation system in pressurized water reactors.

DZO (depleted zinc) for corrosion and radiation reduction in nuclear power plants

B-10 (enriched boric acid) to extend the service life and improve the water chemistry of pressurized water reactors

B-10 (iron boride and boron carbide) for storage containers containing irradiated fuel elements and control rods

Stable isotopes for the semiconductor industry and for applications in the fields of medicine and biology

B-11 (Boron trifluoride gas) for ion implantation
0-17 (oxygen 17) to enhance magnetic resonance images
0-18 (oxygen 18) for positron emission tomography (PET), the newest technology in cancer diagnosis
N-15 (nitrogen 15) for the production of 15N-marked chemical compounds used in research in the fields of biochemistry and agriculture
