Effect of graphite and graphene oxide on thorium carbide microstructural and thermal properties
Abstract Thorium carbide to be tested as target material for the production of 225Ac with the ISOL method, was produced via carbothermal reduction of ThO2 nanoparticles by graphite and graphene oxide, respectively. The use of graphene oxide (GO) as carbon source resulted in a reduced reactivity comp...
