The Cold Pressing of Sinterable UO₂ (open access)

The Cold Pressing of Sinterable UO₂

The intent of this work was to explore more fully the pressing of sinterable UO2 powders into cylindrical compacts in the hope that a more precise prediction of green density in terms of powder properties, pressure, and geometry could be evolved.
