[en] A study on induction plasma deposition with ceramic materials, yttria-stabilized-zirconia ZrO₂-Y₂O₃ (m.p. 2640^oC), was conducted with a view of developing a new method for nuclear fuel fabrication. Before making dense pellets of more than 96% T.D., the spraying condition was optimized through the process parameters, such as chamber pressure, plasma plate power, powder spraying distance, sheath gas composition, probe position, particle size and powders of different morphology. The results with a 5 mm thick deposit on rectangular planar graphite substrates showed a 97.11% theoretical density when the sheath gas flow rate was Ar/H₂ 120/20 l/min, probe position 8 cm, particle size 75 μm and spraying distance 22 cm by AMDRY 146 powder. The degree of influence of the main effects on density were powder morphology, particle size, sheath gas composition, plate power and spraying distance, in that order. Among the two parameter interactions, the sheath gas composition and chamber pressure affects density greatly. By using the multi pellets mold of wheel type, the pellet density did not exceed 94% T.D., owing to the spraying angle. (author)
