Targetry of MoO3 on a copper substrate for the no-carrier-added 94mTc production via 94Mo (p, n) 94mTc reaction

94mTc was produced via natMo(p, xn)94mTc reaction. Deposition of MoO3 on Cu substrate was carried out viatwo special sedimentation methods for the production of 94mTc. The 533 mg of MoO3, 600 μL of collodium(nitrocellulose) and 3 mL of acetone were used to prepare a MoO3 layer of 11.69 cm2 and 45.81 mg·cm-2. Also, a MoO3layer was prepared by 533 mg of MoO3, 71.188 mg of methylcellulose and 4 mL of water. The targets were checked bySEM and thermal shock test.
