North American construction is back—smaller and faster—at OPG’s Darlington
“The nuclear renaissance is real here,” said Ontario Power Generation’s Subo Sinnathamby on May 8, one year to the day after OPG secured a final investment decision to build the first of four planned BWRX-300 reactors at its Darlington nuclear power plant, and shortly after the new reactor’s foundation was lifted into place. “We got our license to construct in April and our [final investment decision] in May, and we’ve been off to the races since.”

Silicon doped CH foams are prepared via a thermally induced phase-inversion technique. With poly(4-methyl-1-pentene) as the foam skeleton material, durene/naphthalene as the solvent/nonsolvent system, and SiO2 as the doping materials, Si doped CH polymer foams with density of 25 to 80 mg/cm3 is successfully prepared, and the mass content of Si is <30%. This paper presents the fabrication procedures of Si doped CH polymer foams. The parameters that influence the properties of the foam products are discussed in detail. The thermal stability and structure of Si doped CH foams are also discussed.
