Abstract

Ag AND Pd FISSION PRODUCT IMPLANTATION ON SiC LAYER IN TRISO FUEL PARTICLE OF HTGR USING SRIM/TRIM MONTE CARLO COMPUTER. Silicon Carbide (SiC) has excellent characteristics such as wide band gap, high electron mobility, high thermal conductivity, and radiation effects resistance. Therefore, SiC is widely used for various applications, including nuclear fuel systems. SiC is used in TRISO (Tri-Structural Isotropic) coated fuel particle in HTGR (High Temperature Gas cooled Reactor). TRISO, which consists of Inner Pyrolitic Carbon, SiC, and Outer Pyrolitic Carbon, is one of the safety systems features of the reactor. However, one of the issues of the system is corrosion of SiC caused by silver (Ag) and palladium (Pd). Nevertheless, the detailed mechanism of this corrosion phenomenon, such as the existence of Ag and Pd and how deep those two fission products penetrate the SiC layer, are still unknown. This study aims to investigate the physical interaction of Ag and Pd with the SiC coating layer of TRISO nuclear fuel particles. For this purpose, the physical effect of the penetration of the energetic Pd and Ag fission products into the SiC layer has been simulated using SRIM (Stopping and Range of Ions in Matter) /TRIM (TRansport of Ions in Matter) computer code with Monte Carlo method. Various Ag and Pd ion kinetic energies have been employed in this simulation. The results showed the Ag/SiC and Pd/SiC Ion Ranges, Doses, and Damage as the first-step evaluation to understand the corrosion phenomenon of the SiC-layer in the TRISO particles of HTGR.

Abstract

APPLICATION OF RIETVELD ANALYSIS TO THE MULTIPHASE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE Bi1/2K1/2TiO3 USING MOLTEN SALT SYNTHESIS. Recently, an interesting application development of piezoelectric materials is as part of the tool for in-situ testing of nuclear fuel and the supporting materials in nuclear reactor, as well as sensors for safety systems in the reactor environment itself. One of the piezoelectric materials (lead free) is bismuth potassium titanate Bi1/2K1/2TiO3 (BKT) which is used in this research and has been successfully synthesized using the molten salt method. This method is a simple process that reacts to the base material in a solution of NaCl and KCl salts to produce nanocrystal ceramics powder with good compositional homogeneity and sinterability. The synthesis process has been carried out in two stages, first to produce Bi2Ti4O11 and then to add excess K2CO3 as a base material to produce BKT. The weight ratio between Bi2Ti4O11 and excess K2CO3 was 1:1.5 and 1:2. Structural identification of the synthesized results has been done by Rietveld analysis of the XRD pattern using PAN-Analytical Highscore software. The multiphase of BKT has been obtained by a predominantly tetragonal crystal system, in addition to cubic as second phase. This is indicated by the content of the tetragonal and cubic phases obtained at 64.5 and 36.5% for the ratio 1:1.5 and 80.3 % and 19.7 % for the ratio 1:2, respectively.The addition of excess K2CO3 increases, the content of the tetragonal BKT phase increases. . Besides that, the “a” lattice parameter increases and the “b” lattice parameter decreases, if the K2CO3 content is added. Likewise, the size of the crystallite and microstrain decreases with the in excess K2CO3.
