Studies were conducted to determine the relationships between the physical and chemical properties of UC/sub 2/ powders and their ceraraic behavior. It was found that, in general, high sintered density pellets were produced from powders having high surface area, small agglomerate and particle size, high O: U ratio, and low bulk and tap densities. Prolonged ball milling was found to result in reduction of agglomerate size and bulk density, increased O: U ratios, increased surface areas, and improved sinterability for oxides which sintered poorly before milling. The iruprovement of ceramic performance from milling and increased green pressing pressures came from a decrease in the open porosity in the fired pellets. (D.L.C.)
