Hi!
I need to make an Americium-Beryllium neutron source as a part of my PhD, but can't find a supplier willing to sell me 1mCi of americium dioxide powder.
Since solutions of americium-241 chloride and nitrate are readily available - could someone tell me how I can convert AmCl3 (Am[NO3]3) into AmO2?
Thanks,
Igor
