URANIUM SILICIDE DISPERSION FUEL UTILIZING RAPID SOLIDIFICATION BY ATOMIZATION AND FUEL FABRICATION PROCESS THEREFOR

摘要

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSUREm is is a new process for the fabrication of nuclear fuel whichmakes the uranium silicide alloy melt and rapidly solidifies it byatomization. The resulting powder may directly be heat-treated toproduce U3Si without the need for comminution, rinsing, drying ormagnetic separation.
