In this work, the shrinkage behavior and O/M change of MOX pellet during sintering process were investigated with dilatometer and thermo-gravimeter, and equations to analyze the sintering behavior were derived. The derived equations represented the change of density and O/M ratio of MOX pellet during heat treatment as functions of heat treatment conditions such as heating rate, holding temperature and $_{rm H2}$ / $_{rm H2O}$ ratio in an atmosphere. They contribute the development of advanced pellet production process and would accurately control density and O/M ratio of MOX pellets.
