Problems solved by technology

In the case of small Re numbers (high viscosity solutions), the mixing effect is not ideal
In addition, the vibration dispersion method is used to disperse the liquid droplets. The dispersed liquid droplets fall into the microwave tube under the action of gravity. Poor sphericity and uneven size of the ball

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing uranium dioxide microspheres at normal temperature, and belongs to the technical field of ceramic forming. According to the method, components in an internal gel solution are divided into a uranyl nitrate solution (ADUN) stable at normal temperature and a mixed solution (HMUR) of urea and hexamethylenetetramine; the two solutions are rapidly mixed inan automatic mixing device to form an unstable uranium glue solution; the mixed uranium glue solution rapidly enters silicone oil, and is shear into liquid drops with uniform sizes by the silicone oil; the liquid drops and the silicone oil are cured into gel microspheres by a microwave heating device; and the gel microspheres are washed, dried and sintered to obtain monodisperse UO2 sintered microspheres with uniform sizes and good sphericity. According to the invention, microfluidic control is adopted in the whole process of the method, so that the UO2 microspheres are prepared at normal temperature through an internal gel method without human interference, and the automation degree is high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing uranium dioxide microspheres at room temperature, and belongs to the technical field of ceramic molding. Background technique [0002] The inner gel method in the sol-gel method can avoid direct processing of radioactive powder due to the good sphericity of the prepared microspheres, and becomes UO 2 The first choice for the preparation method of ceramic microspheres. The inner gel method utilizes the thermal instability of hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA), which will decompose and release ammonia when heated, and solidify the sol droplets into shape. Therefore, the glue of the inner gel needs to be frozen in a low temperature environment, mixed evenly in a low temperature environment, then gelled and dispersed into droplets, and finally heat-cured and formed. From the mechanism of the inner gel, it can be seen that the inner gel glue is unstable at normal temperature, and the inner gel glue of uranium can...
