Summary
Joint Institute of Power and Nuclear Research - Sosny offers consumers technology for the production of polymer decontamination coatings for “dry” decontamination and protective polymer compositions under a commercial proposal with technical assistance and looking for partners for the development of the technology under a technical cooperation agreement.
Description
The action of coatings for "dry" decontamination consists in the penetration of radionuclides into the film or paste material and the removal of the hardened coating together with the radioactive contaminants retained in it. These methods can be used to remove fixed and/or loose contaminants without damaging the substrate surface. Without aggressive components in the composition and in the presence of inhibitors, the films can serve as a coating for protecting metal and concrete surfaces used in aggressive environments from corrosion. Developed at the scientific institution "JIPNR - Sosny" polymer compositions are competitive and are not inferior in properties to decontaminating film-forming compositions from other manufacturers. Research work has been carried out, technical conditions and formulations for decontaminating compositions have been developed and registered in accordance with the established procedure.
The compositions are promising for use in nuclear power engineering, the atomic industry, the production of radioisotope products, in organizations using open sources of ionizing radiation. The creation of decontamination compositions based on polymer films (pastes) is a priority area for environmentally friendly low-waste decontamination technologies, and can also play a positive role in achieving safe long-term storage / disposal of radioactive waste against the background of new environmental standards and the growing role of nuclear energy. The use of the developed polymer coatings at nuclear power plants and in organizations using open sources of ionizing radiation is promising.
Information also is posted in the Album of promising developments of the NAS of Belarus organizations for the real sector of the economy (2023), p. 84-85 (in Russian).

Advantages and Innovations
In accordance with modern economic development trends, there is a need to develop and organize the production of domestic materials capable of replacing similar imported products.
The economic significance of the development lies in import substitution, increasing the efficiency of decontamination, improving the economic indicators of the decontamination process by reducing the costs of processing decontamination waste, introducing decontamination technologies that ensure a reduction in the volume of operational radioactive waste (RW) by 10 times or more, it is possible to obtain an economic effect due to a reduction in the costs of final isolation of RW, and also to reduce the collective effective dose received by personnel.
The production of decontamination compositions based on polymer films is environmentally safe, since it eliminates the presence of wastewater containing toxic components.
The use of film-forming coatings for decontamination of equipment allows:
- reduce radiation doses for personnel by reducing the time the personnel spends near the decontaminated equipment;
- reduce downtime and significantly save money on decontamination carried out at various stages of operation and decommissioning of nuclear installations;
- reduce the environmental hazard of the decontamination process by reducing the amount of solid radioactive waste and eliminating the formation of liquid radioactive waste;
- ensure safe long-term storage / disposal of radioactive waste against the background of new environmental standards and the growing role of nuclear energy.
Improvement of decontamination technologies and the use of domestic protective coatings that are characterized by high decontamination capacity and resistance to aggressive environments.

Additional comments
Joint Institute of Power and Nuclear Research - Sosny (Institute of Nuclear Power Engineering of the Academy of Sciences of the BSSR) was one of the largest scientific centers of the USSR on nuclear power. The Institute is defined as an organization performing scientific support for the construction and operation of nuclear power plants.
From the first days of the Chernobyl accident, the Institute was involved in solving such important problems as determining the levels of radioactive contamination of the territory of the Republic with radioactive isotopes and the levels of irradiation of the population of the affected regions, monitoring the radioactive contamination of food products produced in the Republic, which became an important factor in choosing the strategy and tactics of measures to protect the population from radiation hazard.
The main areas of activity of the Institute:
- nuclear energy, scientific support for the development of nuclear energy in the Republic of Belarus;
- nuclear and radiation technologies in the interests of various sectors of the economy of the Republic of Belarus;
- handling radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel;
- fundamental and applied research in the field of nuclear physics, particle physics, high energy physics.
Promising areas of the Institute's activities:
- development of methods for modeling neutron-physical and thermal-hydraulic processes and their application in substantiating the safety of the Belarusian NPP;
