NON-CORROSIVE FUEL FOR NUCLEAR REACTORS, UTILIZING PLUTONIUM IN A TANTALUM CONTAINER
Patent
·
OSTI ID:4623741
The application of a liquid metal fuel, consisting of 8-12 at.% Fe, 2 at.% C, and the balance Pu, in tantalum containers is discussed. The C in the fuel creates an autoregenerative film of tantalum carbide on the surface of the container, preventing its attack by the molten Pu. (NPO)
