Characterization of phases formed between U-Pu-Mo alloys and Fe-12Cr cladding

Journal Article Aitkaliyeva, Assel ; Madden, James W. ; Miller, Brandon ; ... - Journal of Nuclear Materials

Exposure to high temperatures and irradiation can lead to interaction between fuel and cladding constituents, inter-diffusion, and formation of brittle or low-melting phases. Therefore, understanding of fuel-cladding interaction (FCCI) is critical for evaluation of fuel performance in a reactor environment. In this contribution, phases formed between U-21.7Pu-4.3Mo and U-24.8Pu-14.6Mo (in wt%) fuel alloys and Fe-12Cr cladding were characterized using scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM/TEM) techniques. Phases formed within FCCI layers in both alloys were identified by implementing selective area diffraction pattern analysis as Cr0.3Mo0.7, Fe2U, FeUCr, and Fe2Pu. Phases formed at the end of the FCCI layer in themore »« less

Technical Report Janney, Dawn E. ; Papesch, Cynthia

The Metallic Fuels Handbook summarizes currently available information about phases and phase diagrams, heat capacity, thermal expansion, and thermal conductivity of elements and alloys in the U-Pu-Zr-Np-Am-La-Ce-Pr-Nd system. Although many sections are reviews and updates of material in previous versions of the Handbook, this revision is the first to include alloys with four or more elements. In addition to presenting information about materials properties, the handbook attempts to provide information about how well each property is known and how much variation exists between measurements. Although it includes some results from models, its primary focus is experimental data. Because of itsmore »« less

Phase Characteristics of a Number of U-Pu-Am-Np-Zr Metallic Alloys for Use as Fast Reactor Fuels

Journal Article Burkes, Douglas E ; Kennedy, J Rory ; Hartmann, Thomas ; ... - Journal of Nuclear Materials

Metallic fuel alloys consisting of uranium, plutonium, and zirconium with minor additions of americium and neptunium are under evaluation for potential use to transmute long-lived transuranic actinide isotopes in fast reactors. A series of test designs for the Advanced Fuel Cycle Initiative (AFCI) have been irradiated in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR), designated as the AFC-1 and AFC-2 designs. Metal fuel compositions in these designs have included varying amounts of U, Pu, Zr, and minor actinides (Am, Np). Investigations into the phase behavior and relationships based on the alloy constituents have been conducted using x-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis.more »« less
