Oxygen self-diffusion in near stoichiometric (U,Pu)O$$_{2}$$ at high temperatures of 1673-1873 K

Watanabe, Masashi  ; Kato, Masato   ; Sunaoshi, Takeo*

The oxygen self-diffusion coefficients in near stoichiometric (U,Pu)O$$_{2}$$ at high temperatures were successfully measured by thermogravimetry combined with the oxygen isotope exchange method. The activation energy for oxygen diffusion in the stoichiometric composition of (U,Pu)O$$_{2}$$ was evaluated from experimental data, and the value was determined to be 248 kJ/mol. In addition, the defect migration energies of (U,Pu)O$$_{2 pm x}$$ were derived, and the oxygen self-diffusion coefficients were evaluated using these. As a result, good agreement was found between the experimental data and the oxygen self-diffusion coefficients calculated using the defect migration energies.
