Abstract

A method is described for fabricating improved uranium oxide crucibles. In the past, such crucibles have lacked mechanical strength due to the poor cohesion of the uranium oxide particles. This difficulty has now been overcome by admixing with the uranium oxide a quantity of a refractory oxide binder, and dry pressing and sintering the resulting mixture into the desired shape. Suitable as binders are BeO, CaO, Al/sub 2/C/sub 3/, and ThO/sub 2/ among others.
