Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing a ceramic tritium breeding agent in a fusion reactor blanket, pertaining to the nuclear fusion field, in particular to a technique for preparing the ceramic tritium breeding agent pellets in the fusion reactor blanket. The method is characterized in that: organic monomers that can generate free radical polymerization and a crosslinking agent are mixed and dissolved with water or an organic solvent to prepare a pre-mixed solution, then ceramic tritium breeding agent powder is added and an initiator and a catalyst are added after defoaming treatment so as to prepare a slurry; the slurry is dripped into a medium by using a dripping device and the medium is in the state of being heating and is exclusive to the solvent used in the slurry. After entering the medium, the dripping liquid takes the form of pellet, solidifies and maintains the shape during the dropping process; the pellet is collected, cleaned, dried and sintered into the tritium breeding agent ceramic pellet material. The formed blanket has high strength and toughness; the formed pellet has high degree of sphericity, smooth surface and good evenness; the shrinkage after drying and sintering are slight, the size of the pellet is easy to be controlled and the strength is high; additionally, the cost is relatively low and the technique is flexible.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of nuclear fusion, in particular to a preparation process for ceramic tritium multiplication agent pellets in fusion reactor cladding. Background technique [0002] Facing the problems of human energy shortage and deteriorating environment, clean, safe and renewable fusion energy has attracted much attention. Materials that capture DT fusion neutrons and produce tritium are called tritium breeders. Tritium breeders generally use lithium-containing materials, which are divided into liquid and solid. Commonly used solid-state tritium breeders include Li 2 O and ternary lithium ceramics——γ-LiAlO 2 , Li 2 ZrO 3 , Li 2 TiO 3 and Li 4 SiO 4 wait. Due to the good chemical stability of the solid breeder, it can be used at higher temperatures and the tritium is easy to extract, so it has become a common candidate material for the experimental cladding tritium breeder of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Re...
