Thanks for your comments again. ZrD is one of the studied option in our design and that's for the low absorption cross section. Parrafin won't be feasible for or 14MeV neutrons, due to their cross section also the size of the moderator.

The D2O will be used as the pre-moderator in our system, what other compounds do you have in mind? Cheers.

Hi QuantomPion, Thank you for your reply. Indeed that would be inconvenient to be used for a reactor. The design is for a small collimated beam.

Hello all, From those guys who worked with different materials especially reactor moderators and coolants, is it practicality possible to compress D2O between two metallic parts until it remains solid in room temperature? In otherwords wants to have D2O in solid at room temperature. Thanks in...
