【 摘 要 】

Uranium-molybdenum alloys are perspective nuclear fuel for fast reactors. In this work, a study was conducted of the interaction of uranium-molybdenum alloy with iron and chromium steel at an elevated temperature of 750 °C for 5 hours. It was found that the constant rate of the interaction layer growth for diffusion couple UMo/FeCr is about 5.4-10-12m2/s at 750 °C. The phase composition of the interaction layers for the both diffusion couples was determined. The interaction comes along the grain boundaries, there are not interacts UMo alloy grain in the structure of the diffusion zone.
