Times Cited Count:1 Percentile:10.61(Nuclear Science & Technology)Lithium titanate with additional Li (LiTiO) and lithium orthosilicate (LiSiO) is one of the most promising candidates for use in a tritium breeder because of its good chemical and mechanical stabilities. Currently, mixtures of tritium breeder pebble and neutron multiplier (Be or BeTi) pebble are being considered for use in increasing the tritium breeding ratio in a breeding blanket. However, lithium and beryllium are gradually reacted under practical operating conditions, and therefore a high-functional tritium breeder such as lithium beryllium oxide (LiBeO) needs to be developed to compensate for this reactive characteristic under high temperature use. In this study, methods of synthesizing LiBeO have been extensively investigated by means of solid-phase reaction. The solid-phase reaction of LiOH(HO) and BeO is a suitable synthesis method for lithium beryllium oxide (LiBeO). It is expected that single-phase LiBeO will be stable under the mixture conditions of a tritium breeder and neutron multiplier in the blanket region at high temperatures.

Times Cited Count:52 Percentile:96.24(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)Lithium titanate (LiTiO) is one of the most promising candidates among tritium breeding materials because of its good tritium release. Addition of H to inert sweep gas has been proposed for enhancing the tritium release from tritium breeding materials. However, the mass of LiTiO was decreased with time in the hydrogen atmosphere. It is assumed that the mass decrease indicates the loss of the oxygen contained in the sample caused by the change from Ti to Ti , and that the partial pressures of Li-containing species were increased in the hydrogen atmosphere. In order to decrease the mass-change at high temperature, advanced tritium breeding material with added Li should be developed to improve the physical and chemical stability in hydrogen atmosphere. In the case of the LiTiO samples used by the present study, LiOHHO and HTiO were proportionally mixed with the molar ratio Li/Ti of either 2.0 and 2.2. These samples are designated as L20 (Li/Ti = 2.0) and L22 (Li/Ti = 2.2), respectively. The results of XRD measurement showed that the phases in advanced tritium breeding material were as follows. L22 existed as non-stoichiometric compound LiTiO.

Times Cited Count:46 Percentile:93.83(Nuclear Science & Technology)LiTiO is one of the most promising candidates among the proposed solid breeder materials for fusion reactors. Addition of H to inert sweep gas has been proposed for enhancing the release of bred tritium from breeder material. However, the mass of LiTiO was found to decrease with time in the hydrogen atmosphere. This mass change indicates that the oxygen content of the sample decreased, suggesting the change from Ti to Ti. In order to control the mass change at the time of high temperature use, the development of lithium titanate which has LiTiO additive is expected to be effective.
