Abstract

A method for coating small diameter, low density particles with pyrolytic carbon is provided by fluidizing a bed of particles wherein at least 50 per cent of the particles have a density and diameter of at least two times the remainder of the particles and thereafter recovering the small diameter and coated particles.

Process to minimize cracking of pyrolytic carbon coatings

Patent Lackey, Jr., Walter J. (Oak Ridge, TN); Sease, John D [Knoxville, TN]

Carbon-coated microspheroids useful as fuels in nuclear reactors are produced with a low percentage of cracked coatings and are imparted increased strength and mechanical stability characteristics by annealing immediately after the carbon coating processes.

Pyrolytic carbon-coated nuclear fuel

Patent Lindemer, Terrence B [Oak Ridge, TN]; Long, Jr., Ernest L. (Oak Ridge, TN); Beatty, Ronald L [Wurlingen, CH]

An improved nuclear fuel kernel having at least one pyrolytic carbon coating and a silicon carbon layer is provided in which extensive interaction of fission product lanthanides with the silicon carbon layer is avoided by providing sufficient UO.sub.2 to maintain the lanthanides as oxides during in-reactor use of said fuel.

Void forming pyrolytic carbon coating process

Patent Beatty, Ronald L [Oak Ridge, TN]; Cook, Jackie L [Oak Ridge, TN]

A pyrolytic carbon coated nuclear fuel particle and method of making it. The fuel particle has a core composed of a refractory compound of an actinide metal. The pyrolytic carbon coating surrounds the core so as to provide a void volume therebetween. The coating has an initial density of no greater than 1.45 grams/cm.sup.3 and an anisotropy factor than 3.0 and a final density upon heat treatment above about 2000.degree. C. of greater than 1.7 grams/cm.sup.3 and an anisotropy factor greater than 5.

Method for fabricating thin films of pyrolytic carbon

Patent Brassell, Gilbert W [Lenoir City, TN]; Lewis, Jr., John (Oak Ridge, TN); Weber, Gary W [Amherst, NY]

The present invention relates to a method for fabricating ultra-thin films of pyrolytic carbon. Pyrolytic carbon is vapor deposited onto a concave surface of a heated substrate to a total uniform thickness in the range of about 0.1 to 1.0 micrometer. The carbon film on the substrate is provided with a layer of adherent polymeric resin. The resulting composite film of pyrolytic carbon and polymeric resin is then easily separated from the substrate by shrinking the polymeric resin coating with thermally induced forces.
