Abstract

In this work, prompt gamma ray neutron activation analysis technique was used to monitor the REEs saturation in resin. A facility consisted of a D-T neutron generator, a BGO detector and a 3He detector was established and applied to analyze REEs (Gd and Sm) samples. Neutron self-shielding effect was also corrected. The enriched Gd and Sm in resin were close to saturation at about 400 min. The results showed a satisfactory agreement with the XRF tests, which demonstrated that PGNAA was sufficient for monitoring REEs saturation in resin.
