TECNO FUS: Difference between revisions

  • ITMA has started the development of a spanish RAFM (ASTURFER(R)) and CIEMAT is making its characterisation.  

  • CEIT has started the development of production routes of ceramic materials based on porous SiC and composite SiCf/SiC, for application as insulating channels inserts (FCI= Flow Channel Inserts). This is based on the concept of regenerative DRM/LiPb.  The SiC is the Material of choice for its application due to its excellent  thermal stability, mechanical and chemical characteristics at high temperatures. Its low thermal expansion, good thermal shock resistnce, low corrosion in Pb-15.7Li, low activation and good resistance to neutron irradiation make it the correct working material.
