Ar. Lipski et al., PREPARATION OF ISOTOPIC MOLYBDENUM FOILS UTILIZING SMALL QUANTITIES OF MATERIAL, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 334(1), 1993, pp. 126-127
A simple method utilizing a small amount of isotopic material for prod
uction of molybdenum foils is discussed. An e-gun is used in the proce
dure. The Mo powder undergoes reduction-sintering and melting-solidify
ing steps leading to the creation of a metallic droplet suitable for f
urther cold rolling or vacuum deposition.
