## Summary

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority is planning a tender for the procurement of services titled "Gamma irradiation of insulator samples." The procurement falls under the research and development services and related consultancy services category. The tender aims to irradiate materials with gamma doses above 10 MGy to understand the characteristics of magnet insulator materials. The initiation type is tender, and the future notice date for communication is set for August 5, 2024.

This tender opportunity presents a chance for businesses involved in research and development services to compete for providing gamma irradiation services. Companies capable of irradiating materials with gamma doses above 10 MGy, especially those experienced in working with magnet insulator materials, would be well-suited to bid for this contract. The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority, as the buyer, is seeking suppliers who can provide expertise in this specialised area to support the objectives of the irradiation campaign.

## Notice

4.1. We require a supplier who can irradiate materials with gamma doses above 10 MGy. This irradiation campaign aims to understand the characteristics of magnet insulator materials such as epoxies, cyanate esters and similar cured resins after they receive gamma doses above 10 MGy. This will provide insights into their life and their optimal use in future reactors
