Description

The Nuclebras R and D Center (Centro de Desenvolvimento da Tecnologia Nuclear - CDTN) has been performing, together with german institutions (Kernforschungsanlage Juelich GmbH - KFA, Kraftwerk Union A.G. KWU NUKEM Gmbh), a program for utilization of thorium in pressurized water reactors. In this paper are presented the physical and chemical chacterizations necessary to qualify the (Tn, U)O2 and the respective methods. (Author)
