Anticipating future needs for the transport and storage of spent fuel from evolutionary nuclear power reactors
Description
New materials for use in spent fuel packaging are needed to cope with the technical challenges posed by the highly enriched and high burnup spent fuels expected from evolutionary nuclear power reactors, and also from existing reactors. Research and development undertaken on materials for this purpose is described in the paper and examples are given of the successful application of the new materials. (author)
