Series Description: This record series contains correspondence and memoranda pertaining to iodine. Topics include the extraction of iodine at elevated temperatures; results, in counts per minute per milliliter, of analyses of samples drawn from the acid recovery vent scrubber furnace HCP-14; two methods of lowering the iodine content and controlling the zenon poisoning of homogenous reactors; and the iodine behavior experimental program with plans for further work on elemental iodine distribution coefficients, iodine valance states, dynamic loop studies, Homogenous Reactor Test (HRT) studies, and xenon and krypton distribution coefficients.
