Microstructural Characterization of U-10wt.%Zr Fuel Slugs Containing Rare-Earth Elements Prepared by Modified Injection Casting

U-10wt.%Zr metallic fuel slugs containing rare-earth (RE: a rare-earth alloy comprising 53% Nd, 25% Ce, 16% Pr and 6% La) elements for a sodium-cooled fast reactor were fabricated by modified injection casting as an alternative method. The distribution, size and composition of the RE inclusions in t...
