Difference between Boron and Scram

Boron vs. Scram

Boron is a chemical element with symbol B and atomic number 5. A scram or SCRAM is an emergency shutdown of a nuclear reactor.

Similarities between Boron and Scram

Boron and Scram have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Actuator, Borax, Boric acid, Control rod, Neutron temperature, Nuclear reactor, Pressurized water reactor.

Actuator

An actuator is a component of a machine that is responsible for moving and controlling a mechanism or system, for example by opening a valve.

Borax

Borax, also known as sodium borate, sodium tetraborate, or disodium tetraborate, is an important boron compound, a mineral, and a salt of boric acid.

Boric acid

Boric acid, also called hydrogen borate, boracic acid, orthoboric acid and acidum boricum, is a weak, monobasic Lewis acid of boron, which is often used as an antiseptic, insecticide, flame retardant, neutron absorber, or precursor to other chemical compounds.

Pressurized water reactor

Pressurized water reactors (PWRs) constitute the large majority of the world's nuclear power plants (notable exceptions being the United Kingdom, Japan, and Canada) and are one of three types of light water reactor (LWR), the other types being boiling water reactors (BWRs) and supercritical water reactors (SCWRs).
