Abstract

Abstract The densification behavior of U 3 O 8 powder compacts has been investigated in a reducing atmosphere by dilatometry. The U 3 O 8 compact shrank due to the reduction of U 3 O 8 to UO 2 and then densified above 1200°C. The U 3 O 8 compact containing simulated fission products densified more than the U 3 O 8 compact. The addition of Nb 2 O 5 enhanced significantly the densification rates of both compacts over the temperature range between 1200°C and 1600°C.
