Burnup dependence of melting temperature of FBR mixed oxide fuels irradiated to high burnup

Hirosawa, Takashi ; Sato, Isamu

The melting temperatures of FBR MOX fuels irradiated to 112.5 MWd kg $^{-1}$ were measured using a rhenium inner capsule to hold the specimens. These results were compared with those obtained using a tungsten capsule. The former melting temperatures were about 30 K higher than the latter, although the slopes of the respective lines plotting melting temperature versus burnup were not so different. This was attributed to the difference in the chemical reaction between the irradiated MOX fuels and the capsules.
