PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURING ENHANCED THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OXIDE NUCLEAR FUEL AND THE NUCLEAR FUEL

摘要

A nuclear fuel and a method to produce a nuclear fuel wherein a porous uranium dioxide arrangement is provided, the arrangement is infiltrated with a precursor liquid and the arrangement is thermally treated such the porous uranium dioxide arrangement is infiltrated with a precursor liquid, followed by a thermal treating of the porous uranium dioxide arrangement with the infiltrated precursor liquid such that the precursor liquid is converted to a second phase.
