  3. 12. Characterization of uranium oxide powders and sinterability

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Joakim Ceder; [2021]
    Keywords : uranium dioxide; sinterability; reduction; pore former; chemical activity; urandioxid; sintringsaktivitet; reduktion; porbildare; kemisk aktivitet;

    Abstract : Uranoxid (UOx) är ett energitätt material som ofta används i kärnbränsle. UOx-pulver pressas och sintras för att tillverka urandioxidkutsar som förs in i bränslestavar. Stavarna monteras slutligen ihop till ett bränsleknippe. Tillverkningsprocessens stabilitet och förutsägbarhet är viktiga. READ MORE
