The determination of oxygen potentials of hyperstoichiometric U-Pu dioxides in the temperature range 1500-1850 K

  • 1. UKAEA Reactor Group, Windscale. Reactor Development Labs.

Description

Oxygen potentials for Usub(0.85)Pusub(0.15) and Usub(0.69)Pusub(0.31) oxides have been measured at 1518, 1623 and 1823K using a transpiration technique. The results show that the oxygen potentials for the oxide become progressively less negative with increasing plutonium content over the temperature range used. Differences exist between extrapolation of previously published low temperature data and the results of this work. (Auth.)
