Guideline tests on the corrosion of sintered uranium oxide by lead and sodium about 450 deg. C; Essais d'orientation sur la corrosion de l'oxyde d'uranium fritte par le plomb et le sodium aux environs de 450 deg. C

Abstract

Within the frame of the investigation of behaviour of a fuel element (such as UO{sub 2}) under irradiation, the authors report the study of the physical-chemical action of the coolant at different temperatures on the body to be irradiated. Thus, sintered uranium oxide has been submitted to corrosion by lead and by sodium during 250 hours at temperatures between 400 and 500 C. The physical characteristics of the UO{sub 2} powder and of different sintered UO{sub 2} pellets produced from this powder under different sintering processes are indicated, as well as the results of a spectrographic analysis of the sintered UO{sub 2}. Corrosion devices, treatments and obtained results are reported for corrosion by lead and by sodium. In the latter case, extraction processes are discussed (using butyl alcohol, or melting in vaseline oil)
