Description

The results of the thermogravimetric studies of mixed nitride uranium-plutonium (MNIT) fuel formulations at high temperatures (up to 2173 К) are presented. The rates of mass loss of mixed nitride are calculated as a function of the plutonium content. With the increase of the plutonium content in MNIT fuel the rate of mass loss increases. However, there is a deviation from this dependence for some compositions of MNIT fuel. (paper)
