Iodine radioisotopes are produced by fission of uranium fuel in a nuclear reactor.
Iodine radioisotopes are produced by fission of uranium fuel in a nuclear reactor.
Most naturally occurring uranium is U238, but this common isotope does not undergo fission – which is the process whereby the nucleus splits and releases tremendous amounts of energy.
Early nuclear scientists knew how to get the most energy out of uranium: by recycling its fissionable waste products into new fuel.
