Pure metals for nuclear power

The data on the level of purity of the metals produced by different physical methods in NSC KIPT, using development and implementation of efficient methods for refining are presented. The characteristics of the main structural materials for some types of new generation reactors and pure metals with need to create them are presented. Shown that the development of nuclear power is largely dependent on the development of promising structural materials for new generation reactors and improving materials for operating nuclear power plants
