Radiation damage effects in candidate titanates for Pu disposition: Zirconolite
Results from studies of radiation-induced damage from the alpha decay of 238Pu on the density and crystal structure of a nominally phase-pure zirconolite and two other zirconolite-bearing ceramics are discussed. Macro and micro swelling were found to be temperature independent, whereas the density d...

Thus, the material remains physically a viable material for the disposition of surplus weapons-grade Pu. |
