Abstract

The invention discloses a boron carbide doped fuel pellet and a production method thereof. The production method comprises the steps as follows: S1, raw materials of a first formula and a second formula are weighed respectively in percentage by mass; S2, the raw materials of the first formula and the second formula are mixed with ethanol respectively, then, polyethylenimine is added, the mixture is uniformly mixed through ball milling, and a first mixture and a second mixture are formed respectively; S3, 5%-20% of the first mixture is uniformly mixed in ethanol to form slurry, the slurry is sprayed on rolling TRISO particle surfaces, and to-be-pressed powder is formed after drying; S4, the second mixture is subjected to mold pressing to form a tube biscuit; S5, the to-be-pressed powder ispressed into a core biscuit in advance, the core biscuit is assembled in the tube biscuit, compact sintering is performed, and the boron carbide doped fuel pellet is obtained; or the to-be-pressed powder is put in the tube biscuit and subjected to mold pressing to form the core biscuit matched in the tube biscuit, compact sintering is performed, and the boron carbide doped fuel pellet is obtained.The neutron economy of the fuel pellet is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of nuclear fuel, in particular to a method for manufacturing a boron carbide-doped fuel pellet and the boron carbide-doped fuel pellet. Background technique [0002] Nuclear fuel has a high energy density, CO 2 Low emissions of harmful gases are an important means to solve the current shortage of petrochemical resources and serious environmental pollution. Nuclear power generation is a clean energy source. Nuclear energy has obvious advantages. The proportion of nuclear power energy continues to increase. Develop nuclear energy and build new nuclear power plants. However, nuclear energy uses the fission of heavy metal elements such as uranium to generate energy, and fission will form fission products with certain radioactivity. Therefore, doing a good job in radiation protection and preventing the leakage of radioactive products is the key to the safety of nuclear power and the prerequisite for the develop...
