  • Composition and methods of preparation of target material for producing radionuclides
    Patent number: 8449816
    Abstract: A composition suitable for use as a target containing antimony to be irradiated by accelerated charged particles (e.g., by protons to produce tin-117m) comprises an intermetallic compound of antimony and titanium which is synthesized at high-temperature, for example, in an arc furnace. The formed material is powdered and melted in an induction furnace, or heated at high gas pressure in gas static camera. The obtained product has a density, temperature stability, and heat conductivity sufficient to provide an appropriate target material.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: May 28, 2013
    Assignee: Brookhaven Science Associates
    Inventors: Yurii D. Seropeghin, Boris L. Zhuikov
