X-ray diffraction and thermoanalytical datasets of precursors of the Gd 6UO 12-δ phase processed by combined mechanochemical?thermal routes

摘要

The datasets presented here are related to the research paper entitled“DisorderedGd6UO12-δwith the cation antisite defects prepared by a combined mechanochemical?thermal method”. The datasets complement the findings on the effect of the combined mechanochemical?thermal processing of the stoichiometric mixture of solid precursors (3Gd2O3?+?UO2) on the formation of Gd6UO12-δphase. In this article, we provide (i) X-ray diffraction (XRD) data of the 3Gd2O3?+?UO2mixture milled for 12?h, (ii) the refined XRD data of the non-milled 3Gd2O3?+?UO2mixture after annealing at 1282?°C for 3?h in air, and (iii) the thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA) data for non-milled and mechanically preactivated 3Gd2O3?+?UO2mixture measured in air at a heat rate of 10?K/min.
