KINETICS OF THE OXIDATION OF A THORIA-10 w/o URANIA SINTERED PELLET

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4115214

A thoria-10 wt.% urania sintered pellet was oxidized at temperatures from 600 to 950 deg C and 779 mm Hg oxygen pressure. The rate of oxidation can be expressed as: R = 3.T x 10/sup -3/ e/sup -22//sup ,50//sup 0/R//sup T/ moles O/ sub / 2>i/cm/sup 2/-min from 800 to 95O deg C. The pellet was not pulverized under the experimental conditions. (auth)
