- •
A process to consistently produce high density U3Si2 pellets was developed.
- •
Proper milling of the U3Si2 to produce the correct particle sized distribution was essential for final product consistency.
- •
This process was used to produce pellets for irradiation in the Advanced Test Reactor at Idaho National Laboratory.
