Kurina, A. Kazakova, E. P'yankova] A water technology developed at the Institute of Physics and Power Engineering was used to obtain and investigate the composition Eu2O3 + MgO - a simulator of the oxide fuel Am2O3 + MgO, intended for burning americium. This technology includes the production of precipitate containing particles of different size simultaneously, including nanoparticles, followed by heat-treatment, pressing, and sintering. The composition has a special structure (nanoporosity in grains, europium oxide clusters of substoichiometric composition with the metallic bond Eu-Eu) that promotes high thermal conductivity. Increasing the thermal conductivity of the fuel will lower the temperature at the center of the fuel upon irradiation, which will increase the fuel burnup and the operational safety of the reactor, and make operation in the maneuvering regimes possible.
