JSFR is a sodium cooled loop type fast reactor on which a conceptual design study is now underway in the framework of "Fast Reactor Cycle Technology Development Project (FaCT Project)" of Japan. Achieving economic competitiveness with future light water reactors, along with assuring high level of safety and reliability, is among its most crucial development targets. In this paper described are the major design features of JSFR and related material development issues.

Nitride fuel and oxide fuel are candidate for helium gas-cooled fast reactor to achieve thermal efficiency over 40%. The conceptual design of fuel, which consists of nitride fuel of around 50%, highly dense SiC matrix and porous SiC buffer layers is encouraged according to the eport for "Feasibility Study on Commercialized Fast Reactor Cycle System (FS)", Japan. However there is no technique to form dense SiC in the small gap between fuels with accurate arrangement of fuels. The objective of this work is to develop basic fabrication technique for the high burn-up fuel utilizing forming technique for highly dense NITE-SiC/SiC composites. The cylindrical fuel is proposed in this work instead of spherical fuel to achieve high dense fuel and accurate arrangement.
