| Abstract: | Carrier-free 32P was produced in KAlpakkam MINI reactor (KAMINI) via 32S (n, p) 32P using its small fast flux component. This method has established the flow-sheet for the production of 32P from sulphate targets such as magnesium sulphate and strontium sulphate which can withstand high temperatures of fast reactors unlike the conventionally used sulphur powder. The chemical processing involved (i) struvite precipitation method for magnesium sulphate and (ii) co-precipitation with ferric hydroxide method for strontium sulphate. |
