Determination of activation energy of sintering of ThO2-U3O8 pellets using the master sintering curve approach
ThO2 containing around 2 to 3 % U233O2 is considered as fuel for the forthcoming Indian Advanced Heavy Water Reactor (AHWR). High-density ThO2-UO2 pellets have been fabricated by powder metallurgy route using ThO2 and U3O8 powders as the starting materials. U3O8 decomposes to UO2 during high tempera...
