A liquid absorbent safety rod for a nuclear reactor comprising a reservoir, the upper compartment of which is filled with liquid absorbent under gas pressure communicates with a lower compartment situated in the core of the reactor the lower compartment being filled with gas under pressure by way of a disconnectable hollow rod. By varying the gas pressure in the lower compartment, the quantity of absorbent descending into this compartment may be varied. When the hollow rod is disconnected from the reservoir, all the liquid absorbent falls into the lower compartment.
