Production of uranium–molybdenum particles by spark-erosion
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract With the spark-erosion method we have produced spheroidal particles of an uranium–molybdenum alloy using pure water as dielectric. The particles were characterized by optical metallography, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry and X-ray diffraction. Mostly spherical particles of UO 2 with a distinctive size distribution with peaks centered at 70 and 10 μm were obtained. The particles have central inclusions of U and Mo compounds.
