Sandia's Ion Beam Laboratory looks at advanced materials for reactors
Albuquerque NM (SPX) Mar 30, 2012
Sandia National Laboratories is using its Ion Beam Laboratory (IBL) to
study how to rapidly evaluate the tougher advanced materials needed to
build the next generation of nuclear reactors and extend the lives of
current reactors.
Reactor operators need advanced cladding materials, which are the alloys
that create the outer layer of nuclear fuel rods to keep them separate
from the cooling
