NRC proposes security regulation changes
In 2025, President Trump issued Executive Order 14300, “‘Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” which directs the NRC to conduct a sweeping, multifaceted overhaul of its structure, culture, and regulations with the aim of facilitating increased deployment of new nuclear technologies and capacity.

Palladium and its alloys have been extensively studied because of their faculty to store reversibly hydrogen isotopes. Here, aging effects on pressure-composition isotherms of Pd(PtRh) solid solutions are investigated for tritium storage up to 5 years. The main changes observed are the decrease of the plateau pressures and the shift of the and branches towards greater stoichiometries, as it was already observed for pure palladium. In this study, we show that aging effects are greater on palladium substituted by platinum and/or rhodium than for pure palladium. These observations can be correlated to different evolutions of the structural and micro-structural properties of the solid solutions.
