Fabrication of U-10wt.%Zr-RE Fuel Slugs by Recycling of Metallic Fuel Scraps

U-10wt.%Zr-5wt.%RE fuel slugs for a sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR) were conventionally prepared by a modified injection casting method, which had the drawback of a low fabrication yield rate of approximately 60% because of the formation of many metallic fuel scraps, such as melt residue and unsuit...
