[0002] Polonium-210 is an extremely toxic radioactive nuclide that easily forms a radioactive aerosol of polonium-210 with a half-life of 138.4 days. If it enters the body, it will destroy the cell structure of human tissues and organs, damage DNA and cause cell death. There is a possibility of polonium-210 leakage in specific nuclear facilities, and the leaked polonium-210 may have a serious impact on workers and the environment. Especially in high-temperature environments such as cover gas, the relative concentration of polonium-210 is high. In normal operating conditions, there is also a risk of Po leakage in ambient gas, so it is necessary to develop specific filter materials that have the effect of capturing and adsorbing Po-210-containing gases under high temperature and room temperature environments. Performance evaluation is the key to determining whether the Po-210 capture filter material has been successfully developed and in which direction the process route is optimized. Therefore, in the process of filter material iteration, it is urgent to quantitatively evaluate the capture performance of the filter material for Po-210.
