For mixtures of contents (powders and pellets) described in 5(b)(1), the maximum quantity of material per package shall be limited to the quantity given in 5(b)(2)(ii).
7.
For mixtures of contents as described in 5(b)(1)(i), amonium oxalate (AO) and/or ammonium bicarbonate (ABC) additives are permitted in the UO2 powder provided that their presence is taken into account in the determination of the H/U ratio in the package as follows:
flH (water) + flg (additive) + 0.038 flC (additive) ilU (UO2 powder) s 0.45 Where flg (water)
= atom density of hydrogen in the UO2 powder mixture in the fom of water flH (additive) = atom density of hydrogen in the U02 powder mixture in the form of A0 and/or ABC flC (additive) = atom density of carbon in the U02 powder mixture in the form of A0 and/or ABC NU
= atom density of uranium in the UO2 powder mixture 8.
