Title: N-Reactor lithium-aluminate target element process development and fabrication

Abstract

Fabrication of LiAlO{sub 2} target elements for the N-Reactor Coproduct Demonstration Program required development of a suitable fabrication process consistent with installation of a minimum production facility on a limited time schedule. The most advanced manufacturing process developed and used within the facility and schedule constraints is described in detail. Major problems encountered in obtaining required component materials and development of the fabrication process are discussed and analyzed for impact on future programs utilizing LiAlO{sub 2} target elements.
