METHOD FOR PREPARATION OF SINTERABLE BERYLLIUM OXIDE

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4670299

High-purity beryllium oxide for nuclear reactor applications can be prepared by precipitation of beryllium oxalate monohydrate from aqueous solution at a temperature above 50 deg C and subsequent calcination of the precipitate. Improved purification with respect to metallic impurities is obtained, and the product beryllium oxide sinters reproducibly to a high density. (AEC)
